The Cowboys From Sweden - Live all vinyl DJ set from Beech Street Parlor (2013)

 

Flashback to 2013 (or possibly before)...  In the darkened corner of a dimly lit bar, behind a pair of turntables and a mixer surrounded by crates of vinyl sit myself and my buddy Robbie.  All evening we share drinks, funny conversations and musical trivia as we proceed to select and play songs into the wee hours of the night. Each of us assigned to one turntable, taking turns trying to compliment each other's selections, or one up each other (depending on how late it was getting and how many drinks we had) in a duel that lasts for hours.  Many live sets were performed at Beech Street Parlor together over the years.  Sadly the bar is now closed down.  Thankfully some of our live sets were broadcasted on the radio and some were recorded and archived.  Here is a good three hours of one of the many live sets we performed there.  I hope you enjoy it and let the music take you back to simpler times.


And keep a lookout for a new Cowboys mix in July!

Thanks for lending me your ears all these years.  Wishing you all the best.

NEW LINK (2025) - Evens And Odds: Volume 3 (2022)

 Evens And Odds Volume 3 is here, this time featuring very special guest, the magnificent Alfonso Carrillo (RENDEZVOUS LA, DJ Alfonso's MUSIC CABINET, etc.)! On volume three, Alfonso and myself take a wild ride through dusty music libraries, spooky silver screen themes, beat-heavy funk atmospheres and other forgotten psychedelic delights from the 60s and 70s. Alfonso is Odds (odd numbered tracks), Eric is Evens (even numbered tracks). Come join us as we play musical leapfrog through the golden age of cinematic music!

NEW LINK (2025) - Evens And Odds: Volume 2 (2021)

Welcome to Volume 2 of the Evens and Odds series. A series where I create mix tapes with special guests (musicians, firends, DJs etc). For volume two I am joined by special guest, my friend, musician and all around good guy Timothy Fife (with solo releases on Death Waltz, Spun Out of Control, Burning Witches Records, Library of the Occult, etc..).  Volume 2 is a deep dive into the world of rare beats, soundtracks and library music. Eric is Odds (odd numbered tracks) Timothy (even numbered tracks). Join us as we play musical leapfrog through the trippy sounds of the 1970s and early 80s.

NEW LINK (2025) - Dina J & The Cowboys From Sweden - Love And Other Crimes (2017)


Last month I had the pleasure of doing a guest DJ set on my friend Dina J's radio show "High Noon" on NTS Radio.  She played for the first hour and I played the second.  Since we both have very similar tastes, I thought I would be fun to post up our collaborative set as a downloadable mix tape.  If you like my mixes, you'll be sure to enjoy Dina's!  Due to the length of the mix, I had to upload it in two parts. Links include artwork.  Enjoy this sprawling two hour cinematic journey!
