FHMDC is a very big fan of the A-Trak brand, and the diverse creativity he associates himself with. Whether it is his efforts with Armand Van Helden and the Ducksauce project, blowing up blogs in the NuDisco/Indie space with his essential productions, or jamming with Chilly Gonzales impromptu style — although not directly house music related (and more like DJ Shadow-esque), we believe all innovative music entertainment should be shared and appreciated.

“Often times it’s the casual shows, the “oh I’m just doing this on the side for fun” shows that end up being my favorite ones. Maybe it’s because I love to improvise. Or maybe it’s because these are shows I do with my friends, which is fertile ground for creativity. Last year it was my set at the Do Over. This year so far, my favorite performance was this little guest spot I did at Chilly Gonzales’s “Piano Talk Show” at Joe’s Pub in New York last Thursday. It was barely rehearsed, only 15 minutes in length, and we were both coming in from long flights with little to no sleep.”
