mr_ at Saturday Soundsations this weekend!!!

Yup, its true. It's an early set but it'll be a good one. 

i been getting into this old RobotKiss mix I found kickin around the back of a hard drive somewhere - a nice, chill sound for the warm-up set. Goes well with those eerie globes in the pic they used for the event, too. Little rough around the edges, i know, but it's old & i just stumbled onto it...

The Creative boys've also got Kori K, Captain Eric, Mystery Korn Flakes, & Steve the Creative Individual dropping sets. Beautiful venue, great crowd - should be a killer night!

Well, that's it for now, i got real work to do. Check the mix below, & see you at Saturday Soundsations...

another long weekend...

buncha shows this weekend, a little something for everyone, it seems. I gotta work Saturday so there's nothing happening on friday, far as i'm concerned (hahahaa...) but Saturday starts right with the boys from Guns n Bombs are doing a DJ set at the Lotus. They've done some killer remixes & the tracklists of some of their mixes reads like a 'best of' list. cra-zy. Check out one of their early mixes:

Decisions to be made on Sunday tho... Calvin Harris at Celebrities for a big night of sweatin & dancing to disco & house - if you wanna party & you've got some cash to blow (we are talkin Celebrities, here...), or something a little more towards the live music end of the spectrum with a live set by Brooklyn's own !!! at Richards??? Decisions, decisions...

Check the links on the left for tickets & prices - hope to see you round somewhere this weekend, wherever it may be...

(that's a shot of the first ever labour day parade, btw - September, 1882 (lil' something for all us workin stiffs, yeah?) mr_

Shoutoutoutoutout!!!

Shout out out out out = two drummers + four bass players + two samplers + five synthesizers + one vocoder. volatile dance music.

weeelll... that's what their myspace page says. Went down to Richard's last night to check them out. that myspace blurb makes 'em seem maybe a bit more unusual than they are, i think. I gotta admit though, I wasn't expecting too much - I've got a couple of their singles (check the mix) & my favorite tracks on both of them are the remixes. heard they made for a good party though & tickets were cheap so why not?

truth is though, they might have 2 drummers but no one mentioned their drum machine & that box it was the hardest working member of that band on Sunday, no shit. Sure, the crashes were huge, & the snares were bangin but i dunno, enough with the twirling drum sticks already, yeah?

It was a pretty good party though, all said. & i'll still keep playin em out in sets - especially the remixes...

on that note, check out the mix, something quick & dirty i ripped this afternoon - gotta keep the memories fresh, yeah? a whole bunch of shoutoutoutoutout (obviously), chromeo, a killer bumblebeez track, fourtet

that's it, i'm out. mr_

back from the long weekend...

Back from the long weekend, slugging through that first day back, watching the clock tic...tok...tik...toc... but hey, nothing picks the day up like some free tunes, yeah? How can you say no to that?!?!

So in the interest of making everyone's day just a little bit easier (& i think it's supposed to be something like blue skies & 30 f%@#*ing degrees this week, so if you're stuck inside, you need all the help you can get...) i slapped together a short mix of a bunch of (mostly) last years hits (well, hits for me, at least). A little LCD Soundsystem, some CSS, the Presets, !!!, Digitalism, Klaxxons, bunch of others - you should definitely take a minute & check it out, i don't think you'll be disappointed.
