All the media attention may have shifted to the Euro X Games but visually, historically, and culturally, the 30th anniversary of the US Open was the highlight of the 2012 season. And by culturally we mean the parties of course. TheGoodLife! was in full effect at this year’s Open and just posted an amazing gallery of photos from Craig Wetherby. Check them out here and hit the jump for a dope video recap from DJ A Dog who played throughout the weekend including opening for Red and Meth.

Radcollector fam DJ A Dog was summoned to Europe last week to rock the party at the global premier for the new Pirate Films production Bottom Line. If you know Innsbruck, you know they gets down. Peep some more vids after the jump and go here for a special mix from the trip. The video above features additional filming from Dean Blotto Gray. And don’t forget to cop A Dog’s Radcollector x Hex mix from a few weeks ago right here.

Recently we linked with our homies at Hex for a series of posts documenting the Radcollector way of life. Obviously that includes a heavy amount of chilling combined with generous portions of shredding, music, and kicking it with our friends. To jump things off, we enlisted Radcollector selector DJ A-Dog to put together an End of Summer Ride Out mix to score the series. Download the entire mix here, load it up on your iPod Nano x Hex watch and stay tuned over the next two weeks as we bring you “10 Days in the Life of a Radcollector.” More images and a stream of the mix after the jump.

We promised this a little while back but then got so stuck on bumping it that we neglected to share. Without further ado, we are proud to present the mixtape of the summer for any Beasties head, DJ A-Dog’s The Beastie Boys All Remixed Up. A-Dog goes in hard on this one, mixing blends like “Looking Down the Barrel of a Gun” over “Day n Nite” and “Root Down” over “Bring the Pain” with archival interviews and skits from Hot Sauce Committee Part Two for a Beasties bangerthon that will have your cookouts thumping this summer. You can grab the mix via Mediafire, Datpiff or Bandcamp or hit us on Facebook to win an actual hard copy of the mix.

DJ A-Dog is getting ready to drop his next project, a full length “re-fix” of joints by the Beastie Boys. Featuring classic interview audio, guest appearances and blend after blend, its a banger! We’ll have some leaks over the weekend and will have the exclusive worldwide drop on Tuesday May 24th along with a contest.

We do special shit here at Radcollector and none of it would be possible without the support of our readers, friends, and fam. To show a bit of our appreciation, DJ A-Dog put together this quick edit showing him personally putting together care packages for the winners of our BIG Refixed giveaway. Thanks to everyone who participated. If you still haven’t heard the mix, stop sleeping and get it here now!

Continuing our celebration of the life of The Notorious BIG this month, we’ve linked up with DJ A-Dog to give away 5 copies of A-Dog’s epic new mixtape BIG: The Reggae Fixed Tape. You can get the download or stream for free but A-Dog still presses CD’s so if you want one, be among the first 5 people to get to this post on our Facebook page and leave a comment about Biggie. That’s it! Winner must be in the Continental US.
