“It was Mike Miller who got me into photography. I met Mike around 1989 when I started Freshjive. Rap music was making a progressive step on the West Coast and the relatively few people that were really into that music and that scene in Los Angeles tended to know one another or frequent the same spots.
Mike Miller is effortlessly and sincerely the real deal, and I don’t throw those words around lightly. Besides the immense amount of influential work, his ease, confidence and personal ethos has been a major inspiration to me, and this video is an effort to pass that inspiration around the world like a big fat community blunt.”
This is my first video mix! Made specially for a live performance set at our Alice In Wonderland themed dubstep event, the overwhelming response was “WHEN IS THIS COMING OUT?!!!” So here it is for everyone to enjoy, the retelling of this classic story from start to finish, edited to dubstep and drumstep, mixed together in my usual mixtape collage style, and sprinkled with samples, new story lines, hidden messages, and fully lip synched to all the songs. Not to mention some brand new DJ SOLO mashups. If you thought Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon set to The Wizard of Oz was crazy…get ready for a TRIP to Wonderland!!!

Check out the debut episode of Soul Assassins TV. We checked into the Soul Assassins compound during a taping of Soul Assassins Radio with special guests, Los Angeles based Hip-Hop act, Overdoz. Our cameras made their way into the back studios and got a sneak peek of some unreleased Kurupt material from producer Fred Wreck. We also checked in with DJ Muggs while he got an unexpected phone call from a very important person!
“This is a mashup of Mitchy Slick’s “Bass Chasers” and Excision & Downlink’s “Crowd Control”. It’s also part of my upcoming video mix “DJ SOLO’s Alice in Wonderland”, where I’ve chopped up the entire Alice in Wonderland, edited it to music, and then mixed it together so you see the whole movie set to music. It’s done in my traditional mixtape style containing all sorts of samples, extra goodies, and alternate story lines. Until then, dig this!”
