Omar & Thee-O – Mind Waves

I’ve had a lot of requests for this tape. When I asked Thee-O if he’d write something up about this mixtape, here’s what he had to say:

“Omar (now known as Darius Alexsander) and I have known each other a very long time. We both went to the same Jr. High and High School. When I first met him in 8th grade we were both into DJing. I remember riding my ten speed over his house just to get my hands on some 1200’s which I did not have at the time. After high school we both got into the rave scene. We both started DJing different things and kept in touch with each other over the years. We decided to do our first mix tape some time in 1995 I believe. This is our first Mindwaves tape, of which we eventually made 3. This is one of my most requested mixes to put online and I am glad simfonik.com is getting this up. Hope you enjoy.” – Thee-O
