One wise DJ once said that Roctakon is the Kenny Powers of DJing. I like to think of him as the Hank Moody of the scene. He might even have a mild case of tourette’s. No one quite understands where he’s coming from… or how he found himself in the most ironic situation of being one of the biggest and best club djs for bottle-service meatheads and the tramp-stamp masses. This CD is the result of this pickle… Roc quit club DJing for a minute, locked himself in his stanky LES apartment, and came up with this mix of the music he truly loves. For someone known to throwdown personalized Fatman Scoop edits and Britney jams, it’s unsurprising to see that this is all about disco, house, and techno…. but even I was taken back by how hardcore it is. If you need to know more, check out the writing by Roc on the back of the CD… he gets personal. Over an hour, expertly mixed. 500 copies only, full digi-pack by PH (that’s me). Recommended.
