DJ Nu-Mark is next up in the latest installment of FLuD Watches’ Beats Per Minute video series.
In this episode, DJ Nu-Mark (of Jurassic 5 acclaim) talks about his years of record collecting, the positive and negative effects of new technology, the freedom he now has as a producer outside of a group setting, while finishing up the video with his trademark rubber band trick using the tone arm of a turntable. Nu-Mark is truly one of the most creative DJ/Producers in the game, which he showcases during his DJ sets as he incorporates various toys and tricks to separate himself from the rest. In addition, a lot of folks sleep on Nu-Mark (including Cut Chemist and DJ Shadow) as one of the first producers to perform live on the MPC, which he showcased years ago for Mochilla’s Keepintime live show in 2002 at the El Rey Theatre in Los Angeles.
Nu-Mark is also preparing the release of his album, Broken Sunlight, dropping this Fall.

FLuD Presents… is an interview series conducted by the good folks at FLuD Watches. The series is a bit unconventional in that we explore the HOW of an artist’s work and not the conventional “WHY” (i.e: why did you chose music? why this song? this beat? this producer? blah blah blah). We figured that those types of interviews you can read pretty much everywhere, so lets shoot for a different angle. The HOW angle. Still not following? Click on the video and peep game…

Last week I attended the Magic Convention (google it if you think it’s about disappearing tricks and bunnies). I met up with my man J. Kim, who in turn introduced me to Doug & Mel over at FLüD Watches. They we’re gracious enough to drop me off a watch of my choice (which I’ve shown below) so the least I could do was let ya’ll know about a dope watch company that’s based out of NY. You can also expect a contest soon enough between us and them. Let’s go!
