Best Darn DJ in The H
Congratulations are in order for our boy Squincy Jones. He just copped a big nod from Houston Press for Best DJ in 2008. He can now add this title to his many others: DJ, producer, remixer, geek-out master extraordinaire. And may I add that he did an excellent job on this Mami’s mixtape.
Check out his mixes and discography, then give him a shout at Awwready.blogspot.com and Myspace.com/SquincyJones. You’ll see why his notoriety is well deserved.
Best DJ: Squincy Jones
Way too few DJs manage to do anything original; many just seem to play the same records and never dare to venture outside the box. There’s no room for mediocrity in a good DJ, and we’re glad Squincy Jones figured this one out. As co-founder of the genre-splitting night Speakerboxx at The Backroom with his partner Dayta, he’s pushed as many boundaries and/or genres as he can find into one DJ set. From guilty pleasure ’80s to the latest in electro or local hip-hop, he’s throwing it all in a pot and cooking a big kick-ass stew of “I don’t give a fuck and I’m going to make you dance your ass off.” –Houston Press, 2008
Keep on DIRB! Big ups boy!!
DustyCrates <3′s you!
