wrong thread.... perhaps post it in the Promos and Recommendations forum. It would take away from the meaning of the thread if half the board posted mixes in this thread to "make the grieving feel better". Hope you understand.

I used to fly in from KC to Atlanta a couple times a year to go to the liquified parties. My best friend lives up in Alpharetta and we would go to the Seks parties as well. Its crazy to think that I may have crossed paths with the three of you like 7 years ago.
I´m listening to that one right now, my brother is here with me and we´re both constantly picking our jaws off the floor. I´m sure they´re having a blast up there in Heaven...
^^^^^I was trying to explain that to Steve while I was there. There is no reason why his mixes should not be heard by the masses and I could never understand why he had difficulty finding someone who could help manage or setup nights for him so that he could be traveling and playing in front of thousands of people. His mixes are always clean and his programming and track selection is spot on for that deep, dark vortexy prog sound. It very unfortuante that he did not have the marketing savy (which in my discussions with him, he didnt seem to interested in doing it for himself) to get his feet wet and belong to some dj pool such as the collective agency.

I would always ask if he played any shows recently, and he would always say, "Nope, sideline city for me"....Then we would both bitch about not being able to get a gig and how most places now play top 40 ghey stuffs.

i think he enjoyed playing for his friends and people that he knew rather than a bunch of people that he had no contact previously with.
^^^ he used to play live gigs with the THM boys quite a bit back in the day....caught him a few times at the bank in st. pete Fla late 2005.
here is an unrealeased full 2 hour version of the mix he played live @ the bank when I very first met him in person. Really had a good time that night.

We were working on that. I was coming out of semi-retirement from club and event promotions industry. We had just started a new monthly residency at Penscola's new ultra lounge called Suite that my friends own and where handle all their flyer printing and design. Our second month was supposed to next Thursday...it was called FSM presents I LOVE TECHNO with resident DJ's Steve James, Hafid Atzel, and Mark Lannigan (Hafid's roommate that plays intelligent DnB & was voted Pensacola #1 Favorite club DJ for 2 years) which we have postponed to 2009. I was working on getting him and Hafid down the Autumn music festival in Ft. Lauderdale for Nov. 22nd and other gigs in Texas. As well as a regional old skool warehouse party on NYE2008/2009 where he was closing out the main room which we are still doing. These days if a deejay could also produce or co-produce tracks and remixes, it would give a greater advantage of getting solid and consistent bookings and thats where our local celebrity progressive artist/studio owner - Kevin Rockwell came into play. He has the full $30K digital production studio. Hafid and Steve were to get there "feet wet" with him. Hafid recently did his first remix with Inner City's "Good Life" on his recent Mcast show. So many things were just getting into play, slowly but surely. I made a commitment to stay for at least a couple years in Pensacola to do this but the unfortunate happened. He wasn't here long enough to let it play out but in the short amount of time he was here he got the chance to play in front Pensacola's largest EDM event turnouts in years in August. He closed the night with Hafid opening and our friend Kevin doing a Live PA. The monthly EDM was averaging 300-400 per night each month for the last 2 years, his first gig after moving to Pensacola, they did 700+. FSM Pensacola was and still in the midst of releasing our clothing DJ apparel line - alternative unique old skool baseball and football jersey shirts (which are be ready next week), caps, beanies and embroidered aviator flight jackets. I had just filed for Florida corporation papers so that what we did was legitimate and professional. We will continue without our Florida Vortex, our Marathan Man, our JibJolly....but with high hope we will honor him on a constant basis when we do our events. I am hoping that DJ Eddie Garcia who was like Steve's recent apprentice continues in his style and selection. Steve recently and personally took him "under his wing" and I feel strongly that he will be looking over him through this challenging time.

Why do I have the feeling that he was the only one who didn't believe in his own massive talent.

STILL pumpin out great set after great set...never cheesed out, never sold out, never lost his touch..
Simply does not get any better than Hernan
I'm sure Jibs knew he was feckin wicked (heck I told him a billion times each time we spoke). It was just the overwhelming majority of the negative things in his life that drowned out positive he believed in.
