This picture was from a post Coachella party that Jeremy Scott hosts in Palm Springs at Frank Sinatra's old house. It went until the wee hours of the morning when it concluded with about 10 of us dancing around to Mehdi and Busy P alternating between dance classics and 90's Hip Hop. A very memorable experience.
Mehdi Faveris-Essadi, known by his stage name DJ Medhi, was French-born and of Tunisian descent. He first gained ground for his underground work in France's hip hop scene, and started to really get noticed when he signed with French electro label Ed Banger Records. The young producer had collaborated with a number of big names, including MC Solarr, Daft Punk, Cassius, Carol King, and with Chromeo on his single "I Am Somebody," Mehdi was celebrating the birthday of his friend on the mezzanine of his place when the roof collapsed. Mehdi was the only one to die while 3 others were hospitalized. Another legend has left us....
RIP.RIP.RIP
