URBAN ANTHEMS ON DESTINY 105, BANK HOLIDAY MONDAY, 1ST MAY


I’ll be doing an extra show on Destiny 105 on Bank Holiday Monday from 5-8pm, playing a bunch of hip-hop and R&B classics, but preceded by the original soul and funk tunes from which their well-known breaks and samples were lifted. Looking forward to a good cathartic crate-digging session for this!

The station streams live at www.destinyradio.uk

MARK DEVLIN DJ GIG IN MONTENEGRO, SATURDAY 13TH MAY


Looking forward to spending my birthday weekend in Montenegro, spinning hip-hop, soul and funk revivals at Stiglic Caffe in Podgorica.

VIDEO: MARK DEVLIN ON BEING DUPED: WON'T GET FOOLED AGAIN

A big part of the information I get into involves mass deception through mind-control. Here's some brief reflections from a recent interview on how we're all systematically duped, but only a few seem willing to face up to it.

The awesome new video from PTP/ Vinnie Straub featuring Steve Grant and Alais Clay is here. Three of the strongest conscious hip-hop MCs all together one empowering track! Be sure to support REAL music.

Big props to Derrick Broze, Kirsti Snyder and Bruce Baumann for the filming. And I’m happy to have made my first music video cameo on the section shot in the parking lot at the back of the recent Free Your Mind Conference! (Shout also to Bill Church, getting his own square!)

K-RINO: T-RASH SKIT (HILARIOUS!)

This is just TOO hilarious! And the most insane thing of all is that the pisstake section at the end sounds EXACTLY like most ‘hip-hop’ now peddled in all seriousness by the likes of Westwood on Capital Xtra and many of the DJs on 1Xtra!

UPCOMING DJ DATES - MONTENEGRO/ TENERIFE/ IBIZA


It was the plan to get back to a bit more DJing this year in between writing the next book, in which regard, I'm greatly looking forward to these three upcoming jaunts.

THE SOUND OF NOW. PLAYLIST & LISTEN AGAIN LINKS FOR 15/4/17

The Soundcloud Stasi have informed me I’ve been a naughty boy by uploading audio for which I apparently need copyright authorisation, (even though my files help promote the music in question to wider audiences,) and have disabled downloads from any of my new files to jolly well teach me a lesson. Therefore, I’ve had to make downloads available via external sites, the links for which are in the text. Oh, good, more work each week. Lucky me!

FULL VIDEO: LAUREL CANYON/ L.A. ROAD TRIP

Here's the video compilation of my road trip to Laurel Canyon and various other LA neighbourhoods this week alongside Greg Carlwood of The Higherside Chats. Props to Greg and Teresa for a great job with the filming/ editing, and Shentale for all the driving.


CORRECTION

I mistakenly state in the video that Lady Gaga had recently bought The Log Cabin, Frank Zappa’s former Laurel Canyon home. I’ve since realised that she did in fact, purchase Zappa’s later home, also in the Canyon, but entirely separate from the Log Cabin. Apologies for this error.

MARK DEVLIN & GREG CARLWOOD VISIT LAUREL CANYON

Reporting live with Greg Carlwood on our Laurel Canyon experience - following in the footsteps of the counter-culture, 50 years on.

Watch out for a mini documentary of our runnings coming soon.

You tell me!

I had an absolutely awesome time running around Laurel Canyon, Sunset Strip and other Hollywood Hills neighbourhoods in LA with Greg Carlwood of The Higherside Chats fame, his girl Teresa and our host Shentale. We got to see many of the legendary locations immortalised in Dave McGowan’s groundbreaking ’Weird Scenes Inside The Canyon’ book, including the Lookout Mountain Laboratory, Frank Zappa’s Log Cabin residence, the Whisky-A-Go-Go Club on Sunset Boulevard, the site of the Manson Family/ Tate murders, the Canyon Country Store, Jim Morrison’s former residence behind it, and the very room at The Landmark Hotel in which Janis Joplin died, which now has a shrine in its closet. When you read about these you form an image in your mind of what they’ll all look like, and I have to say none of them appeared as expected. A mini video documentary of our escapades will be coming soon, In the meantime, here’s a selection of pics.

PHOTOS: FREE YOUR MIND 5 CONFERENCE




























Free Your Mind 5 zipped by in a flash. Besides compelling talks from Lenon Honor on gangsta rap and social engineering, Ty Bollinger on big pharma and the cancer industry, and Jim Fetzer on Sandy Hook and Pizzagate, what made the time pass so quickly was the great one-on-one conversations. Personal interactions are so much more meaningful than corresponding via phone or on-line messages, and it's encouraging to be reminded of the power of like-minded individuals coming together in person, in the face of the artificial Transhumanist 'Smart' society that we're all being coerced towards.

What an awesome weekend.
