dj ShmeeJay‘s Ain’t No Big Thing podcast,  syndicated through iTunes and with a new musical episode released about twice per month.

This week I host  Goz. Many moons ago (early 90s), one of my best mates had a set of technics that he introduced me to, and let me spin a few tunes. It wasn’t long before I was completely immersed in learning how to beat match and the technicalities of making a mix sound good. My pad back then was the meeting point for the troops on evenings, and at weekends, so I housed the decks for a couple of years. We used to spin tunes pre, and post, nights out. I done this for a few years and then had to stop, for varying reasons, for around 15 years. I never lost the love for quality music and used to always be on the hunt for tapes/cd’s/ great mixes on Soundcloud etc. from my favourtie Dj’s. During that time my musical tastes changed quite a bit and disco, soul, funk and hip hop were my go to genres. In 2014 I was working away from home Mon-Fri so I started buying tunes again, then equipment and got the bug back and started putting a mixes on soundcloud, just as a hobby I was passionate about.

Present day I am now part of 2 radio shows. I was approached by the owners of New York based myhouseradio.fm (Recently awarded #1 House Station and Blog in the world) to run my own 2 hour weekly radio show. My show is called Spin City and it has just passed it’s 1st year anniversary. During that time I’ve had some of the best names in our scene on the show and this next year coming will not be any different! You can catch the show live (and come and have a chat with me during the show) on myhouseradio.fm/chat/ every Sundays 7-9pm (GMT) 2-4pm (EST)

I am also part of a 3 man team with two friends, Lex and Chris Tibs based here in Scotland. We have a radio show that goes out to around 5000 folks each week, every Saturday night 8-10pm. It’s called The House Theory Radio Show and we have had, and will bring you a Who’s who collection of guest mixes from all the biggest names on the scene, whilst also hosting the show live on air. You can find links for our facebook page in my bio.

dj ShmeeJay‘s Ain’t No Big Thing radio show, live on the 2nd and 4th Thursday of every month from 8pm – 10pm (PST) / 11pm – 1am (EST) on BoxFrequency.fm, and with a podcast syndicated on iTunes.

This episode I host Chicago, IL based deejay and producer Underdog Edits, also known as Leonard Part Sixx. Born and raised in Chicago, Underdog Edits has been a record collector since 12 years old, quoting: “I’ve always been fascinated with the power of music and its effect on the human spirit”. Leonard started Djing at age 15 and recalls he was fascinated by edits and mixes done by legendary Djs like Walter Gibbons, Tom Moulton, Jonathan Fearing, Francois K, Shep Pettibone, and others. Being heavily influenced by these legends have given him the understanding & the aural mechanics needed to start djing and doing his own re-edits. Leonard summarizes his philosophy this way: “A re-edit, when done correctly, can be a powerful way of reconnecting the listener to what they loved about the song, in the first place. My goal was to piece together the cosmic energies of these classic and rare rhythm and grooves and make them my own personal statements to the dancer and the dancefloor.”

But Leonard ‘s talents did not stop at re-editing or running one of the best underground Disco labels in the game. Leonard is also an established recording and mixing engineer. His sense for music and his engineering skills finally came together in 2005 when Leonard became Terry Hunter’s personal engineer. Since then, Leonard has worked for Kenny Dope, Ron Trent, Ron Carroll, and various artists & labels worldwide. His Underdog Edits has been on the playlists of dj’s all over the world. His monthly residency with Ron Trent’s City Beat parties has been introducing a new generation to his groove. And he was recently selected as Music Director of Chicago’s new music mecca, The Shrine Nightclub, forging a new era in music and nightlife. So, though Leonard  may be considered an Underdog, he is rising from the shadows of Disco and is becoming a up-and-coming player in the world of Dance Music.

Look for more of Underdog Edits on SoundCloud, BandCamp, Facebook, SongKick, Twitter, and Discogs.
