48 - DJ Wabi Sabi
Cameron 'DJ Wabi Sabi' is a remarkable human. By day he builds electronics elaborating with transistors and capacitors, by night, he connects people with melody and rhythm on dance floors across the city of Pittsburgh. As a Marine Corp veteran he was stationed on the island of Okinawa where he fell in love with Japanese culture and music. Embracing the imperfections of our short journey through life and the beauty of the present moment we meandered through more than two hours of conversation. He even blessed us with a few of his favorite records. Catch this dynamic selector at Goldmark...

PK represents the second school of Pgh rap, after Mel Man and Strict Flow, and before Wiz and Mac would put the city squarely on the map as the birthplace of some of the worlds greatest talents in the genre. He is a true emcee, and I have been a fan of his for nearly 20 years going back to shows in the Southside at the Hkan where I used to play his background music on stages that were shared with Boaz, Basick, the 58s and many other heavy hitters from this era.

When you think about independent hip hop in Pittsburgh in the 2000s you have to consider the role that was played by Basick and the shows that were hosted at the Hkan hookah lounge from 2006-2008.

Basick Sickness became a band also in the late 2000s and I was a proud member as the DJ. Later it would expand further to five pieces, which can be seen in some of the music...
