Bonnaroo artist additions: Teisto

Teisto has been announced as a addition to the lineup of Bonnaroo. I'm not exactly sure how I feel about this. I have alot of faith in Superfly/ AC entertainment (who puts on Bonnaroo) and if they think that Teisto is worthy of a coveted latenight timeslot, than I sure he will kill it... But regardless, it should be worth checking out. Here is a hilarious Teisto video I found on YouTube:

Upcoming: All Points West Festival

(August 8-10)

This festival is featuring friday and saturday night headlining shows by Radiohead. To top that off, it's at Liberty State Park in Jersey City, NJ with a view overlooking the skyline of downtown Manhattan. That alone is enough reason for me to go. But since it is a festival...there is going to be a ton of other great music to check out. Its like getting to see a Radiohead concert with a bunch of great opening acts for only about $20 more than a solo Radiohead show. Sounds awesome to me. Some of the other acts on the bill I'm excited to check out are: Underworld, Kings of Leon, CSS, Rodrigo y Gabriela, The Roots, Chromeo, and Animal Collective.

I'm especially excited to check out Underworld. I hear that they are amazing live. They also rarely play shows in the states. Here is a show of theirs from earlier this year in Rotterdam:

So, it is probably fucked up that I think this is funny. But, what is not funny about people getting hooked on cough syrup? (watch the videos)

Review: Justice @ Sonar (3/9)

The Justice and DJ Medhi show was definitely worth the trip up to charm city (even on a Sunday night). Even though it was not the best thing I have ever seen... it was definitely a fun little trip. Everyone I went with had a great time.



Justice's set, while predictable- was still entertaining. The highlight for me was the Genesis intro. But the star of the night was Mehdi. He played a nice set (and even threw it some bmore club) and had the place jumpin' before the headliners took the stage... so jumpin' that a boy of mine now refers to him as his favorite DJ.



We stayed for the taxlo after party w/ Scotty B, which while also fun was a little bit of a let down cause Scotty B didn't really bring the heat. It was cool that Gaspard from Justice and Mehdi chilled out afterwards and were genuinely nice guys - even let me get a pic...



Here's some video I shot of the "Genesis" intro:

Upcoming: Sasha + Digweed @ ibiza (DC)

Are you ready to have your face melted by some truly psychedelic house music? If not, then don't go see Sasha + Digweed at Ibiza on April 5th. Probably the world's greatest DJ duo, sasha and diggers, are doing us a favor by playing at such a (relatively) small venue. I've never been to ibiza (the club) but I heard dem speakers is banging... I saw the fellas last year at bonnaroo and I'm still tryin' to put my face back together...

Here is an awesome Digweed mix: http://www.sendspace.com/file/qf9ulr

Here is a video I shot at S+D's 'roo set last June:

Peak Oil... some scary shit

This website is absolutely terrifying... but if you do read it, it will help put things in perspective for you- I know it has for me. The one thing I took away from it, was enjoy today... because who knows what tomorrow is going to be like?

Life after the oil crash

Carpe Diem!

Review: deadmau5 @ FUR (3/14)

I had not heard much from deadmau5 aside from his remix of Daft Punk's HBFS before going to see him friday at Fur here in DC. But, after seeing him I'm definitely a fan of his. At my buddy Andrew's suggestion we made the trek over to NE for the show. It was well worth the trip... deadmau5 did an amazing set and I was surprised by how awesome the club was. It was also my first trip to Fur and I really enjoyed the power and clarity of their giant soundsystem. Deadmau5, I'm told, plays minimal trance... I'm not so sure about what distinct genre of house music he specializes in but I know that around 3:00 I was lost in the beat and was having fun with the sounds he was blasting...

Here is deadmau5's myspace: www.myspace.com/deadmau5

Upcoming: Nouveau Riche... w/ Blaqstarr

This Saturday (3/22), the nouveau riche crew is throwing down at the Rock & Roll Hotel. With special guest, Blaqstarr, this is not a jawn to be missed. I have never had a bad time at NR... and I expect this weekend to be no exception. So throw on that ironic t-shirt, grab your grandma's pharmaceuticals, and get your ass to NE for the jump off..

PLUS... $1 PBR's til midnight

Here's a video of Nacey killin' it last month...
