[02:16:16] The Cure- Just Like Heaven “Where words fail, music speaks.” There's no such thing as a perfect story. I've been trying to create it since the mixtape began. It's what keeps me creating. A blank TDK cassette tape was my canvas. Records were my tool. Some of you were my inspiration. My parent's got me my first duel turntables for Christmas during junior year of high school (1985). One had pitch control & the other not so much. Trying to beat mix was an event, but looking back on it, it was practice man (Allen Iverson 200?). There was hope though. A new kid just moved across the street from Panama that knew how to properly beat mix. Tim Huggins aka The Lonesome Cowboy had the equipment for the job. This is where I got my first taste of real beat mixing. After countless hours of trying to mix Madonna, Tears For Fears & Soul Sonic Force together I was getting there. Us and few other fellas used to battle for spinnin' time during Youth Center dances. While there I realized my niche' was house/freestyle music not really hip-hop. Back then hip hop was mainly drum beats and samples. Freestyle and House had electronic swirls, melodies, samples, and disco meets a hard hip hop breakbeat, but faster. At times I felt like I was floating/flying. Then came my failed attempt at college. But hey, the music was great! In the Fall of '87 I moved into a dorm room in Eddy Hall at ENMU (the only co-ed dorm on campus- cool). I showed up with my music. By now in my mind I was a mixtape specialist. But who has time for that when you're out on your own for the first time? Eat. Sleep. Basketball. Party. Repeat. I lived on the 2nd floor and I remember consistently sticking my big ass speakers out the window so we'd have music to ball to and dance between games. Every pickup game was a dance party. I landed a couple of gigs for some frats for free. Hell, I DJ'd at a damn football stadium for a football game. What a time to be alive! I just loved DJing and discovering what I could do with all this music I had. I must give credit to music for all the people I met. I was social, but not as much as music helped me. By Fall '88 all that music, mixtape business and partying led me to one of the best decisions of my life. I joined the Air Force. My first assignment was Keesler AFB, Mississippi. Once again I found myself on the 2nd floor of the dorms. I was making mixtapes for late night work shifts, room parties & car rides. We all used to go Fiesta or Take Two nightclubs on the beach. I wasn't just there to dance, but I was checking out what the DJ's were playing and then going to the record store the next payday and picking up those tracks. I probably drove the DJs crazy asking for the name of the track they were playing. This also included a bunch of people loading into a car go to New Orleans almost every payday weekend and heading to The Blue Crystal- an industrial, goth, alternative club. We'd wear all black and do a million stupid things in the streets of New Orleans or go to the nightclub in Jax Brewery. Dancing until 4 & 5 in the morning. I was always so curious about what the DJ was gonna play in a big city. So many discoveries in those joints. Just trying to expand my musical taste and what would make the perfect mix. Since then, I learned tempo & keys by ear of all this stuff I was listening to. There was so much more to making a mixtape. This mix has been put off for years. It's truly hard to capture a snapshot of not just my life but those around you during our huge transition(s). I don't like letting people down, so that fear of failure put this “mixtape” off for years. This mix isn't just about me but for the people that lived it. It incorporates the people I met during those times before I was a club DJ (it took me took til 1997 after giving up around 1993). I hope it takes you back. As with every mix I hope it tells a story. Music does most of my talking. It's not perfect, but is anything. Enjoy…

BOg on: - Facebook: www.facebook.com/bogmusic - SoundCloud: @bogmusicoff HOW I MET THE BASS on: - Facebook: www.facebook.com/howimetthebass - Twitter: www.twitter.com/howimetthebass - Mixcloud: www.mixcloud.com/HowIMetTheBass 3 QUESTIONS to BOg: Q: Listening to your mix and to your nowadays productions is really different. How did you come from rough beats to the warm and melodic music you´re doing now? A: That is the music I grew up with and all of those tracks have been played by me when I was younger. I came from a more UK rave musical background. When I was 5 or 6 years old my father made me listen to "Depeche Mode - Strange Love" on a casette tape and I guess it all started from there. When I started to DJ for real and make a living out of it I really wanted to be more coherent and tell a story while mixing tracks together. This transitions came as something natural for me during the years. Q: As your real name is Bogdan but why did you choose to big letters and a small for your artist name BOg? A: As it is a very short DJ name I wanted to make it a bit more self-evident and make people ask themselves why 2 capital letters and one small letter. There is no real meaning or a story behind that. Visual wise i thought it looked cool. Q: Which future projects are on the way? Will BOg take over the world domination in 2018? A: I am a very spontaneous person and I don't really make long term plans. BOg is a very diverse project always improoving and discovering. I don't want to be trapped by my music that's why each track you'll hear from me will always sound different. At the moment I focus a lot on my own label "Atlant Recordings" where I am showcasing only new undiscovered producers that I think deserve a chance to be heard. BOg will never take world domination. He appeared out of nowhere and one day he will dissapear out of nowhere but meanwhile let's celebrate what we have now without too much overthinking.
