Craig Davis Live at Beat Research

As previously mentioned, I was the guest at Beat Research for August 6. Due to a shortage of DJs I got to do two sets, and I had the foresight to record both of them. Wayne is a terrific host, and the people at the Enormous Room are also nice, so a good time was had by all (at least by the standards of a hot/muggy summertime Monday).

The first set jumps all over the map, starting with some screw (Wayne asked for it; how could I not oblige?) and dubstep before finishing with some dancefloor-friendly tracks.
