Hey there buddy! Thank YOU!
I would have loved to personally thanked everyone who came out last night. However, I am extremely introverted. Anyways, I would like to thank everyone involved with The Fix, the Someday Lounge, and everyone who torn the house down with us last night!

Art Crank Poster Show
Hello blog reader.
I figure no one actually reads this crap so why not post my super secret entry into the Art Crank Poster Show. I am not able to be there in person, because I will be djing at The Fix alongside Kez and Shafiq Husayn from the one and only Sa-Ra Creative Partners. However my posters will be at The Ace Cleaners for sale this Thursday. $5 of every poster sold will go to Bikes to Rwanda. Maybe there is some way that I can donate all of the money from my posters ( assuming I will sell at least one, most likely not ) to them or some other charitable cause. So go buy a damn poster on Thursday.
ARTCRANK Portland 2009 is set for Thursday, October 1 at The Cleaners at The Ace Hotel, located at 403 SW 10th Avenue. Admission is free, all posters are priced at $30.
anyways, here's my entry.
Hope you enjoy,

Super sweet press
Every once in a while as a dj someone will notice all the
hard work, effort, money, and time that you put into djing.
Most times you're just the dude no one knows on stage,
sweating under some bright lights trying to figure out what to play next.
Renegade Mag wrote up the night that Kez and I played Various.
I thought it was pretty interesting that someone actually
contemplated what we would do, or if some crowd would
follow us from The Fix or Rockbox. That's pretty funny.
Like we have fans. I can't speak for Kez, but I don't have
any fans.

Thanks Renegade!,

Dave Notti & Hi-res
THE NEW CHILL
Hello there. This is some brand new new from Portland's own Dave Notti and Hi-res.
It's dope give it a listen, pls.
Words From DaveNotti:
----------------------------------
"I've been rhyming for quite some time, I'm almost coming up on 10 years oddly enough. In all my years rhyming, I've very rarely come across someone who I've been granted the opportunity to work with where both individuals were on the same page. I can honestly say, working with Hi-Res was one of the most cohesive projects I've ever done and am honored to not only call him a partner but a friend! This is a project that took us literally a month too make, all the rhymes written and beats were made to eachothers liking. There wasn't a single hitch, almost too good to be true! We wanted to create a project that wasn't necessarily an album, but also shouldn't be considered a mixtape. Short but sweet, convenient enough to get into but not to the point where you almost feel compelled to listen because it's a full fledged LP. My first thank you goes to someone I've thanked for quite some time, who I feel needs no introduction and has been true and true from 21 jump street; our friend KENNY FRESH. You truly have a bright, bright future! Hold up...lemme clear some space for this shit...
I think I can speak on behalf of not just Myself and Hi-Res here, but all the artists who've dealt business through you...you truly are a rare type of person. Very genuine and honest, real and confidential. It's hard to come across people of your caliber nowadays and We, The New Chill, are truly humbled to have been freshly selected and shown as much love and interests as we have from you. You will continue to have my utmost 100% support in all that you do, no questions asked. True story!
I could definitely go for some Top Ramen right now typing this, sheesh! Once again, thank you listener for checking "The New Chill" out!"
Conrgrats Dave! The album is so fresh.

INVINCIBLE
FRESHselects.net & The Fix present the official Portland debut of one of Detroit's finest - INVINCIBLE (http://www.myspace.com/invincilana).
w/ your resident Fix DJ's:
Rev. Shines
DJ Kez
Dundiggy
and hosted by:
Ronin Roc
21 & over
$3 at the door
"It is truly rare to find an artist like Detroit based MC, Invincible. She scripts lyrics to communicate both personal experience and a desire to affect social change; through her clear delivery, witty wordplay, and conceptual songwriting, she reminds listeners, you don’t have to choose between style and substance. A decade deep into her path, Invincible is dedicated to honing her craft and pushing the hip-hop envelope. Her vivid lyrics narrate the politics of everyday life, rooted in the struggle for change, laced over cinematic tracks from Waajeed of PPP/Bling47, Lab Techs, and others. Dubbed by XXL Magazine as “every A&Rs worst nightmare” for rejecting major label deals and general industry politics, Invincible started her own record label, EMERGENCE, self-releasing her long-awaited full length LP, Shape Shifters, in June of 2008.
Invincible is not to be missed by fans of raw live energy and true hip-hop talent.
Fresh Selects is a Portland based but internationally known blog promoting & supporting quality music from quality artists.

this is so ill

And last, but surely not least, we are djing tonight at Someday Lounge(125 NW Fifth ave PDX) If you are semi-influenced by hiphop you should check it out. I think everyone in Portland has checked already. We been doing it for almost 3 years every damn week. So I am talking to you cool dude from Gresham/Beaverton. Tonight we are enlivening things with some upbeat funk. Bring your flats and a bucket of gatorade for your vodka! Shit if you are lucky I might let you blast some rails with me backstage.
Enjoy,

POST ANNIVERSARY AWESOMENESS!
Hello,
Sara Moskovitz of the Apple Juice Crew and new member of the Local Cut online division of the Willamette Week posted her interview with Bobbito. Here's the link to that ::
WWEEK LOCAL CUT MANGO TANGO INTERVIEW
Also, in the wake of our 2 Year Anniversary Mango Tango gave us a quick rundown of what it was like to be in the NW. He wrote about a trip to Nike, his experience at The Fix and how lucky we are to have such a great scene here in Portland. He is totally on point (with his game) with his persectives.
Give it a quick read here ::
BOB's Bounce Mag Blog
I am glad our we can bring in guests with the support of the crowd that attends The Fix. It really wouldn't be possible if no one came out. We also try to maintain that we are charging the lowest amount to break even. So we aren't caked up or paying our rent with the dough. We just and I just love to make shows happen. So basically this is my way of saying thank you!
We hope you love and continue to support the dj's that live here and the ones that don't as well.
Stay warm and stay dry.
We are also trying to do something special on Christmas evening.
Dan aka DUNDIGGY
PS. The Fix gift pack makes a great XMAS stocking stuffer!
available at The Fix and at Hecklewood!
