Joaquin ‘Joe’ Claussell Artist You Should Know
From KCRW DJ Raul Campos:
The term DJ/Producer is one that’s been blurred over the last few years. Just because a DJ gets a couple keyboards and a computer doesn’t make them a remixer and/or a producer…and vice versa, putting turntables in the hands of a musician doesn’t make them a DJ.

Michael Sheen is Our Guest DJ
Actor Michael Sheen is famous for perfectly portraying well-known public figures (like Tony Blair) so finding out who HE is through his musical tastes was an interesting exercise.
Even more interesting, his first song pick was from an Elvis impersonator — taking on Tim Buckley. He says this version of “Song to the Siren” makes him sob every time he hears it and it brought …
