From the official Dynomite D bio: Dynomite D is perhaps most well know for his masterminded remixes of Modest Mouse, Volume All*Star, 764-HERO, Money Mark and the South American band Planet Hemp, and for his production work on the DJ Hurricane and Kirk Dubb records. His debut album By The Way is one long, smooth trip from a wood panelled basement bar on Alki Beach at sunrise, to a wood panelled bar on the sunset level in downtown Sea-Town.

-- George Zahora
