El Da Sensei headlined 101 in West El Paso with Mr. Len. Earlier that night I sat down with him for a quick chat. We talk his early days coming up, Artifacts, and his solo career through present day. A great chat and even better show.

Legendary Hip Hop DJ, Mr. Len make his El Paso Debut with El Da Sensei at 101. We sat down and had quick chat. He talks about his beginnings, Company Flow, Rawkus Records, and beyond.

Producer, engineer, and beat maker extraordinaire; Face Defeat returned to El Paso with the I-25 Cypher Tour. Last August he came to the Rockhouse with Termanology, A-F-R-O, and Taiyamo Denku. This time it was Club 101 with El Da Sensei and Mr Len. We talk about his beginnings in New York working at Bad Boy Records, Unique Studios, and Rocket Rehearsal Studios to his current work in Denver Colorado and Beats Bodega. A fun chat with a good friend.

BAMC Showcast Alumni DJ Ickymac returns with Billy Juan, together they are Baby Weekend. It's a live hip hop circus style cypher show. They just played our first west side show at 101 on N. Mesa. In this episode we catch up with them and there new projects and tour.

I was lucky enough to get a quick zoom interview with TAJ, hours before they opened up for The Butcher Babies at the Launch Pad in Albuquerque, New Mexico. We talk about their formation, lineup changes in the beginning, to recently transitioning from a 3 piece to a 4 piece band. They talk about their numerous shows and tours, (playing show number 71 right after this interview). The band also goes into detail about their third annual TAJ and Friends Camping Fest July 16-19th with over 40 bands. Catch them this Friday March 20th at the Rockhouse in El Paso, TX for BAMC Showcast's Spring Break, and on Saturday April 18th in Tularosa, NM at the High Sky Venue (former Horror Haul) for Spring Fling.

I sat down today for a quick chat with Rockhouse General Manager, Marlene Luna. She talks about the grand reopening of her ice cream parlor; The Shiver Shack Express, in a new location in a different part of town. She tells us what it took her to get to this point, and of course all of the upcoming Rockhouse shows. Give it a quick listen and be there mid March for the grand opening. #shivershack #rockhousefamilia

I sat down with one of my favorite artists, Joel Gomez. He is the interior artist for Coffin Comics titles La Muerta and Lady Gunfighter. We did a deep dive on his career, how he got started, his time at Top Cow, Aspen, WildStorm, and of course Coffin Comics. He told me all about his process and how he transforms the scripts to the art we see on the pages. A very fun interview and one of my favorites by far.

Starting off 2026 with a bang. I was fortunate enough to have a chat with one of the pioneers of American Death Match Wrestling, Mad Man Pondo. He's about to release his 2nd book in 2026. We talk about both books, him being in 2001 Maniacs with Robert Englund and Kane Hodder, his love for horror, and his wrestling career. He has wrestled all over the U.S. and 6 countries. He has worked for various companies including IWA Mid South, CZW, GCW, MAW, Kick Ass Wrestling, Big Japan Wrestling, and has done 49 tours of Japan. This was a very fun interview with not only one of my all time favorites, but a very cool person and awesome dude in general. He is also part of a Benefit for Michael Tawney.
