DJ Rahdu – 15 Minutes of Fly Isht!
In the middle of this indecisive weather I decided to get on the turntables and spin something to summon the Spring & Summer weather I prefer. Brazilian, Samba, Mambo and boogie vibes collide on this mix to keep you groovin from start to finish. Enjoy & Spread the word | BookRahdu@BamaLoveSoul.com

DJ Rahdu – Some Jazz 23: Herbie Hancock Remakes & Covers

DJ Rahdu – Sound Traveler Series #27 (RecordBreakin)
I feel whenever they are behind the turntables, it should be the DJ’s desire for the crowd to sound travel, to literally be taken on a musical journey. Directing their attention to awesome treats and helping them discover cuts never considered all while keeping the flock away from wack jams.. →
