The Stash Vol. 15--DJ Lexus Luthor aka Weatherman--Crowd Control

Lexus Luthor began his DJing career as DJ Weatherman in late 1996, playing Drum & Bass. At the time, he was selected to play alongside such D&B luminaries as High Contrast, Ed Rush, Matrix, Dieselboy, DJ Lee, AK1200, Aquasky, Mickey Finn, Total Science, Klute, Marcus Intalex, and many others. He played an instrumental role in his local dance music community, having been involved with a local record shop (Candy) since its inception in 1996. He progressed from clerk to store manager to head music buyer. He also ran several weekly events, including Tilt for over a year, Arson and a monthly called Heavy Session, as well as promoting numerous one-off events. Weatherman was also an integral member of the influential Playtheavy Kru for several years, as well as being involved with other production companies (Liquified, Format, Dash Productions and Cassini d'Vision).

He has since re-invented himself under the guise of Lexus Luthor. In this new incarnation, he has changed formats, now playing electro, nu-disco, maximal and whatever else catches his ear, even including the occasional heavy metal tune in his sets!

Lexus has also made the move from traditional DJing technology to laptop DJing and makes every effort to allow technology to expand the capabilities of his performance.

The Stash Vol. 14--DJ Celeste Alexander--The Dirty South Mix

Over X-Mas Vacation, I was slipped this CD by a very good friend of mine, Ms. Natalie (shout-out). I fell so in love with the deep Chicago style house rhythms I had to put it on the Stash. This mix was exclusively done from a set she did in Atlanta in October 2009, so there's no tracklisting.

She started in 1982 under the encouragement of Steve "Silk" Hurley, learning how to mix under the tutelage of Andre Hatchett among many others. One of the first female dj's in Chicago, she signed on with Promoter Dave Risque' and Gucci Productions. After the first year of playing exclusively for Dave Risque' and proving that a female DJ Can hold her own in this male dominated industry, opportunities opened up along with her popularity. She has shared the decks over the years with dj's such as: Frankie Knuckles, Ron Hardy, Steve Hurley, Andre Hatchett, Craig Loftus, Greg Gray, Boo Williams, Farley “Jackmaster Funk”, Terry Hunter, Gene Hunt, Wayne Williams, Ron Carroll, Mike Dunn, Greg Gray, Chip E, Tyree Cooper, Glenn Underground, Pharris Thomas and many others.

In July 2007 was given her own Internet Radio Show on Cyberjamz.com. Cyberjamz is the longest running, highest rated internet radio station totally dedicated to house music. Her show The "Celestial Odyssey" runs every Saturday from 1-3pm (cst) and has a quickly become one of the top shows on the station.

You can also check out more of her mixes on her myspace at http://www.myspace.com/celestethedj
