In the midst of packing up my life for this move, I'm coming across a lot of great memories, one including my DJ days, finding my first set list from 2007. I started DJing in 2007 at Seven Nightclub in Melbourne, I had a Saturday night residency there for 3 years as well playing at various spots around Melbourne. As the crossover to Serato was coming into check along with life circumstances, I made the decision to stop playing. Do I regret it? Kinda, but I've always kept music and hip hop close to my heart. Here is a copy of my first set list, and damn, yes I have good taste in music, haha. toot toot!

Friends in the Press

My B-Girls Stash, Melo & Lize from Melbourne have been published in the latest 'Girls Got Kicks' Book. FRESH!


My buddy Marvin Priest (yes he's Maxi's son, pic taken with Rohan Marley) was also in town on the weekend performing at the opening of a new complex. Shoutouts to Elyssium Lounge for providing us with killer tunes to rock to Friday night.

Hot Stepper

Has randomly been on repeat in my head all day. This goes out to Kayta.

RIP Heavy D

I was at my desk at work when I heard Heavy D had passed away. I shed a few tears. Not only for the loss of his life at 44 but I think also at the realisation that a whole era of hip hop is dying before us.

Musiq/Heavy D - Buddy remix is putting me to sleep tonight.

Hip Hop, I love you!
DEAR FUTURE BOO,

ALL I WANT IS TO COME HOME TO A GLASS OF WINE, SOME CANDLES BURNING, RAPHAEL SAADIQ - 'ALL HITS AT THE HOUSE OF BLUES' ON THE STEREO & YOU!

SINCERELY,

CARRIE
