About

Riz

Real job:
at presnt kexp is the realest job i have. although most weeks i’m privileged to feed the hungry and visit those who are sick and in prison. except for those days when i’m making dinner or getting my toes done. and sometimes i’m dj’ing at the clubs. check around for local appearances and personal blessings
Credentials:
” God made me funky “
I have no favorite musical styles and will try practically anything. I’m not anti-pop or neo-avant, whatever appeals to me viscerally, spiritually, or bootyfully is worth sharing with whomever listens.

When I was a child I wished that I would be a DJ for a classical station when I grew up. My favorite radio stations were WSDM, a mostly jazz station with all women DJ’s, and WXRT–both in Chicago. I think the first rekkid I owned was ‘The Peppermint Twist’ recorded live in the Peppermint Lounge back in Chicago. Earlier today we went shopping and came back home with King Britt’s Adventures In Lo-Fi, War’s the World is a Ghetto, Mercury Rev’s All Is Dream, ummmmm, ummmm, Cinematic Orchestra’s Everyday, Max Romeo’s War Inna Babylon and some compilations on Soul Jazz. The first concert I saw was a soul review featuring Dionne Warwick, Gene Chandler, and The Temptations. The comedian was Pigmeat Markham and the headliner was Bobby Blue Bland. The last show i saw was Sharon Jones And The Dap Kings
