I was living on South Street in Philly and had a subwoofer on the top floor, so I could make as much noise as I wanted. The year was probably 2009 and I was keeping up with DJ mixes from the West Coast and the UK. In some mixes, I heard DJ Collage on vocals and really loved his style over dubstep beats. I reached out to him and eventually made two songs with him....Tekalick, which came out on my Concussions EP on Abstract Logic Recordings (\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gate.sc\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.beatport.com%2Frelease%2Fconcussions%2F244671\u0026amp;token=24137f-1-1777813956863\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\" title=\"https:\/\/www.beatport.com\/release\/concussions\/244671\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewww.beatport.com\/release\/concussions\/244671\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e), and Aqua Chat, on my Rx album on Made in Glitch (\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gate.sc\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.beatport.com%2Frelease%2Frx%2F885404\u0026amp;token=a20ef5-1-1777813956864\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\" title=\"https:\/\/www.beatport.com\/release\/rx\/885404\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ewww.beatport.com\/release\/rx\/885404\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe would remain social media friends for a very long time. However, the weird thing about social media is sometimes it keeps feeding you people more frequently over time. I used this as an opportunity to reconnect with DJ Collage (now known as DJ Mista Chatman), who remains one of my favorite collaborators who still keeps the dub \/ reggae \/ dancehall tradition alive. He was contemplating a move to Philadelphia from Seattle and asked me for some advice. I offered for him to play an Ancient Puzzle Arts gig if he ever was in town.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFast forward to this year, back in March, we made it happen. DJ Mista Chatman did an incredible live set with hardware and a mic. This ended up to be one of our most unique APA performances...expect classic dub, dubstep, UK funky, reggae, and even some jungle in the mix. As Chatman says....Tekalick!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e___________\u003cbr\u003eIf you would like to keep up with everything Ancient Puzzle Arts related, please subscribe to our monthly newsletter at: ancientpuzzlearts.substack.com\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOther ways to keep in touch are on our social media channels...\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstagram:\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gate.sc\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Finstagram.com%2Fancientpuzzlearts\u0026amp;token=68d6c-1-1777813956864\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\" title=\"http:\/\/instagram.com\/ancientpuzzlearts\" target=\"_blank\"\u003einstagram.com\/ancientpuzzlearts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFacebook:\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gate.sc\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Ffacebook.com%2Fancientpuzzlearts\u0026amp;token=63a3c3-1-1777813956864\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\" title=\"http:\/\/facebook.com\/ancientpuzzlearts\" target=\"_blank\"\u003efacebook.com\/ancientpuzzlearts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSubstack:\u003cbr\u003eancientpuzzlearts.substack.com\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSoundcloud:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003esoundcloud.com\/ancientpuzzlearts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYouTube:\u003cbr\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/gate.sc\/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fyoutube.com%2F%40ancientpuzzlearts\u0026amp;token=b1c4b0-1-1777813956864\" rel=\"nofollow ugc\" title=\"http:\/\/youtube.com\/@ancientpuzzlearts\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eyoutube.com\/@ancientpuzzlearts\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43366598344822,"sku":null,"price":1.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/8813\/4774\/files\/2026_APA_May-Chatman_color-podcast-art.png?v=1777814019","url":"https:\/\/ancientpuzzlearts.myshopify.com\/products\/ancient-puzzle-arts-podcast-50-dj-mista-chatman-live-at-upstairs-at-the-700-saturday-march-14th-2026","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
