For those of you that loved Disco D, take a look at where all the donations went towards Neutral Zone after his far too untimely demise. This was an e mail from Daves long time friend, Sam Valenti of Ghostly Intl, a label out of Detroit which Dave helped start, which is now a major success. We all miss him, and with the rise of many of his friends and fellow musicians like Spankrock & Santo Gold, we just wish he was still here to share in the success which he helped create. Here is a song Disco D produced for Santo Gold feat: Spankrock. I miss him, he was always an inspiration to me..He'll never be forgotten & will always continue to inspire.

SONG NO LONGER AVAILABLE

From Sam:

Friend of Dave's,
An update the latest in Dave's ongoing memory.
-The Neutral Zone unveiled their excellent live performance space, the B-Side and revamped recording studio last month, much of which was acquired from your donations and goodwill. The night featured a variety of live performances from One.Be.Lo, Great Lakes Myth Society, Fred Thomas, James T. Cotton, etc. and a touching speech by Dave's father.
You can keep up with the live performance schedule at the B-Side here:
B Side Avenue

The studio space is shown here: Youth Owned Records

You can see a couple pics of the B-Side event and the mural painted in Dave's honor at this Flickr page. I set up this group for anyone to share any pictures/flyers/etc that reminds you of Dave or to just stop by and have a look. It makes me sad, but also helps to stay connected to Dave by remembering good memories with him. If any photos are mis-credited or you would like removed, please let me know.

There have been a slew of high profile articles that have come out recently in Penthouse, Spin and the Village Voice, some have failed to fully represent Dave's spirit, but the fact of their existence is evidence of the amount of lives that Dave has touched.
-Also here are two great DJ mixes of Dave's here to download if you haven't already:
Booty Bar
Nouveau Casino, Paris

More to come in the new year. Feel free to email me any updates you may have about Dave or thoughts/pics/etc.
Have a good holiday and let's keep what Dave taught us in life close to heart, we can never be too busy for your loved ones.

-Sam
