MIXTAPE MONDAYS: DJ Zimmie

This week's entry for Mixtape Mondays is called "Live At New Amsterdam" by my man, my mellow DJ Zimmie from Pittsburgh, PA aka The Steel City aka Black N' Yellow. This mixtape is a live mix of classic hip hop jams with some original jazz/soul record samples that Zimmie recently recorded at the venue New Amsterdam in Pittsburgh. I met Zimmie in 2008 during the M.A.G.I.C. Trade Show when he flew in with his partner in crime DJ Nugget to spin a Scion event we were throwing at V-Bar. It was around this time that we also met Zimmie's peeps, Christian & Aaron from Pittsburgh, who later opened Shop.412 in late 2008 (check their infamous "412" tees). When Zimmie's not spinning at local hotspots like S Bar & hi-profile events for the Steelers & Penguins, he's producing & contributing remixes regularly to DJCity. Good looks fam for providing us with this weeks mixtape entry. Enjoy Knyewtrons...Neva.
