So I am bored right now sitting in the Vegas Airport while waiting for my connecting flight to Salt Lake City. It’s 7:45 in the morning and I have slept about an hour, which was on the flight, in the past 24 or more hours. I can’t imagine how you, the touring DJs of the world do it, day in and day out. I am probably setting myself up for the 2nd freak out of my life.

Well while I am sitting here searching my Blog Reader I am noticing a reoccurring topic catching my eye, restaurants and food. So since I am slowly become a jet setter myself, I thought it would be fun to share a few of my favorite eats of the past few weeks and some fo my all time favorites for you all to check out and maybe try some day!!! Here goes my list:

Le Tub: While out in beautiful South Beach, I had the chance to meet up with a close friend from home, who lives out there as missionary. The kid has really knows the local sweet spots. I sent him an email saying I would take him to lunch while I was out there but he had to pick one of the best spots he knew of in the area. What a way to come through. I had their famous Sirlionburger with Swiss Cheese. Sorry In-N-Out but I have a new favorite burger, so does Oprah, GQ and many other magazines who have written excellent articles on the place. Read up and get some grub!!!!

Larios On The Beach: Since I am on a WMC kick I will also mention a great Cuban place, DJ I-Dee took us to. Larios On The Beach right on Ocean Drive in South Beach. I told I-Dee I really wanted some good Cuban Food and he came through. All I need was my “Yucca Frita” and I would be set. It was delicious. Oh and the Pollo was great too. Try it!!! You won’t regret.

In-N-Out: I am not going to say more than this, “That’s What a Hamburger’s All About.” Even “Super-size Me” couldn’t deny it’s greatness.

Well these are three spots I highly recommend. Up next week, I will have an actual review of a In-N-Out wannabe I had in Utah last week. Interesting! Until then, eat up and poop out! Ha!

So Miami was great. We met with countless incredible DJs and made some cool connects to move MixRev back into the world of the DJ. So let it be said MIXREVOLUTION.COM IS BACK AND WE ARE HERE TO STAY!!! WORD TO BIG BIRD!!!!

So here are the first 3 videos I cut up from Last Week’s Footage. Enjoy and check out the new YouTube discovery I made. Just add &fmt=18 to any video and it shows up in it’s original quality with now loss. Cool huh?!!! Enjoy. More videos to come and the complete footage will be on the site by week’s end.

R.I.P. Evil Knievel! Man was true to himself and his fans!

We got the retail copy of the new Wu record sent to the office today! Nice! I am glad to see they are back and going to spend time with it this week. Let’s see if the drama is worth it!

I have to DJ for the Kiddies tomorrow. So I have been looking for some hot new tracks.
My favorites for the weekend are:
The Cool Kids: Flossin & Pump Up The Volume
Murs- Dreadlocks
33Hz- Paris Texas
Bloc Party-Flux (Not Sure Which Remix)

What are you spinnin’?

Can’t wait to here this Kanye remix of “Billie Jean”!

Make sure to check out the TV and Media section on the site. We have a few new episodes up and some new downloads. Some tracks I mentioned above!

I will leave you with my Party video for this weekend!

I am a few days late on this but who knows how many people actually are reading this anyways! So here is to a new week!

Got a new Steve Aoki article for you. I love this one which comes courtesy of URB.com. Here is one quote I love:

“…all those old people were there, Paul Van Dyke, Tiesto. . .It was crazy, I don’t even know how I won. Every billboard in Ibiza is a DJ who is over 45 years old…”

He is going to have the purist up in arms again! Ha Ha! Read more here!

We have a few new Features in the News Section of MixRevolution.com. Make sure to check out the new Pioneer SVM-1000 mixer. I am a tech geek and can’t wait to play with it.

Kaskade is probably one of my favorite Djs now, check out his New Year’s Flyer, he may not be Tiesto but he loves what he does and so do his fans!

The Cool Kids have a dope new track called Flossin’, get the download from Discobelle here! Then spin it in your mixtapes and sets!

Palms Out Sound is one of my favorite dance music blogs, They post a lot of cool and unique remixes all week long. Some of the Dance purist would call them lo-quality blog remix crap, but this fad is slowly becoming the New Punk Rock of this new Millennium and Decade! Check it out and enjoy!

That’s it for now! More to come this week! Also check out some of my favorite blog posts over to your right at “NOVA’s World Wide Finds”!

Let us know if you are enjoying this!

First and foremost, our condolences go out to Kanye West and his family. No more needs to be said, as the media has been updating us on this news constantly, even though the family has asked for some privacy. Let them mourn and keep them in your prayers!

Keep an eye out for DJ I-Dee’s interview with turntable legend, Q-Bert, which should be up soon.

Also, there will me lots of OLDS, since I can’t call it news, videos coming up in our TV section this week. Look from here on out to see new posts in our TV section every week.

I was forwarded an interesting article from LA City Beat this past week regarding LA’s own and Hollywood’s favorite DJ, Steve “Kid Millionaire” Aoki. While I do not agree with everything said, since I have seen him DJ many times over the past 4 years or so but it is interesting none the less. Read the article here.

Last, while watching TV today this commercial really made me laugh. I guess I am not a tough guy.

Enjoy your day and week. I am going to see Mixmaster Mike tonight. So I will update you on that later!

Peace!
