I grew up listening to funk, jazz, rock, and hip hop. Hip-hop culture always interested me and having my brother Jim Mahfood (40ozcomics.com or myspace.com/mahfood) to guide me in learning the elements had a huge impact. So, I decided a few years ago to do something with my love of music and not just be a listener.
Since I have played in 3 different crews ( Essence of Logic, The Frozen Food Section, & Earthworms), won "Best Hip Hop DJ" and Earthworms crowned "Best Hip Hop Artist/Group" in the 2006 Riverfont Times Music Awards-both were nominated in 2007 & 2008, released a number of albums, and made countless guest appearances. In my 5 years on the decks, I've performed all over the U.S. and shared the stage with such notable acts as: DJ Z-Trip, Cut Chemist (Jurassic 5), Lyrics Born, Ozomatli, The Rootdown Soundsystem, Sadat X, Blueprint, Count Bass D, Grayskul, 2Mex, Goldenchyld, Mac Lethal, C Rayz Walz, and many more.
Be sure to tune in to "The Balls" Radio Show every Thursday night from 7-10pm CST on RiverfrontRadio.com to hear the funkiest 3 hours on the NET! Mathias of Earthworms hosts while I wreck the turntables all night-spinning the best in underground-old school hip hop/ funk/ and turntablism! Each episode also features in-studio guests playing exclusive tracks, promoting upcoming events, and even spittin live freestyles!
Also, catch me every Wednesday at my weekly "84" @ Upstairs Lounge w/ Creme Brulee and "Mass Appeal" @ Atomic Cowboy every Friday Night! Check back often for my updated show schedule!
Look out for plenty of new releases this year including: Earthworms "Bottle Full of Bourbon" released by F5 Records, my new mix-CD "Homemade Junk - Vol.II", and a Live album featuring many of my current routines, and much more!

I feel ya man. I think they should just shut down for the night and open up say around midnight. Or at least have you come in later. I'm wanting to go see the fireworks downtown but if i dont havea someone to hang out with down there. I may come on by. Don't really like the vibe of strolling down there by myself. no fun. ya know? Price to pay for not living there. Take care man. Peace.
Waht up homie get at me I got a couple thoughts I wanna shoot at you also peep out undergroundhiphop. com they givin the album silly pub -Cosmo G. Spacely AKA Fedel Cashflow the Money Hungry Miser
Super freakin great. Despite the tragic lost of Michael Turner. http://en. wikipedia. org/wiki/Michael_Turner_(artist) It was a great show/after party good time. Now you know were going to do a live art bash next year. Soo many people asked me about it at the con. They're itchin for it to happen. EWMS need to do it again! And I'm going to get Haiku to do some gigs down in St.Louis cause damnit he needs to shine his skills. Probably see ya Friday fora bit maybe. You have to be at Atomic all night during the 4th? That sucks monkey big time.
You boys got tagged in Chi-town over the weekend. No no its all good. no troubles,no worries. ;)And i met a couple a spray can taggers on the streets. Super crazy. They thought I was a cop. HA! See ya soon. Respect.
