Our boy Heist invited the BR Boys and my man Arcee from the Real Freqs to rock alongside resident party rockers Serious & Kaewonder, to hold down some of the funkiest and freshest records we have in our collection. If you know anything about the Cratery series, it’s all about exposing some thoroughly dope joints you may (or may not) find on the dig! Expect the crew of funky five to do that live on Tuesday February 23rd, 2010 @ Andy Poolhall (489 College Street).

Carmen – Time To Move (Big Jacks’ edit)
February 22, 2010 by grandgroovedjs
Here’s a little something for our DJ homies who enjoy the electro/boogie/funk classics. It’s an edit of Carmen’s classic electro joint “time to move”. Hopefully you can find some use for this!
Nothing too fancy here, I just hooked it up with an 8 bar intro for easier mixing and changed up some of the sequencing in the start! Feel free to share it and blog it too. Enjoy!

February 18, 2010 by grandgroovedjs
(via Dj Mensa)
Apologies for the short notice, but you are cordially invited to attend what will definitely be a sell off party!
Your two favorite February birthday celebrants (Febutantes?) Jill and Joy are throwing yet another soiree in the heart of the city to usher in another year of their amazingness.
If you recall the love-in vibes from last year’s party. All are welcome, but only a select few know what’s up!
This year we keep it closer to home (West of Spadina!)
Come through and revel within the beautiful surroundings that is Harlem Underground (formerly Irie Restaurant) and jam to the timeless R’n’B sounds provided by DJ Royale and newly (re-)crowned 2010 Redbull 3Style Champion DJ Mensa.
There will also be copious amounts of cake, and a full soul food dinner menu readily available.
Definitely not one to miss. See you this Saturday!

DJ Big Jacks “Straight Goodz” Throwback on 94.5 The Beat Vancouver!
February 10, 2010 by grandgroovedjs
Just over a month ago I had the honour of doing a guest DJ throwback set on Straight Goodz (94.5 The Beat. Vancouver) for my people Flipout & Jayswing. They were one of the only real hip hop shows on commercial radio in Canada and I was pretty excited to play classic hip hop and soul on a mainstream platform. Sadly, the show was recently cancelled but the memories still live on through archived moments such as this. This mix is a personal fav of mine and I think you’ll like it too, so check it out!!!
