THIS WEEK…WE’RE IN THE STUDIO. GOOD THING IT’S RAINING.

That’s right folks…sunny California isn’t very sunny at all. So we make the most of it, hibernate and use the time to polish off our new mix CD, THE BLAST OFF #3. As of this evening we’re about 30 minutes in and we’re pretty fucking excited about the direction it’s headed. Here’s what you can expect: Just like previous BLAST OFF CDs about 90-95% of the content on the CD is our own personal remixes and production. This will not be a CD for the clubs…. not even a CD for the gym (like any of you fat asses ever go!!!). Nope…this is probably best listened to on a road trip….during a time when you can really listen and appreciate all the elements we’ve tossed in the mix. THE BLAST OFF #2 featured over 160 samples and artists packed into just over an hour. We’re not looking to top that necessarily…after all, didn’t someone once say quality over quantity? I think it was Yokomito Toyota….Oops. Still happy you bought that Pruis…. you tree hugging, incense burning, hacky sack playing hippie?

MOVING ON….THIS WEEK:

If you STILL haven’t made it out to INFUSION LOUNGE on Wednesday night, you’re missing out on one of the hottest parties in California. I know I know…let me guess…..you have to work in the morning? Blow me…I’m not saying come out every week….but fuck…live a little. Nowhere in the 10 Commandments does it state “THOU SHALL NOT GO OUT ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT”. Here’s the best part….it’s actually a really great event! Great music (yours truly), great people (as long as YOU show up), and San Francisco #1 nightclub. Nuff said…see you Wed.

BACK FROM THE EAST COAST & READY FOR ANOTHER BUSY WEEK!!!

We had an amazing trip to the East Coast last weekend. Got to play at a new club in Providence RI called The Colusseum on Sat night….IT WAS NUTZZZZZ!!!!! Big shout out to Joe Tiberi for making that night happen and everyone who came out to support what we do. Soon as we can figure out how to post the video footage from that night you better believe it will be up ! Also wanna say thanks to DJ Boi Wonder for a great opening set and DJ Lord Fresh for hooking up all the equipment!! Hope to be back soon.

Sunday we took the train down to NYC to hang with Nick Loi who handles the majority of our bookings over at Moodswing 360. We ended up at JULIET SUPPERCLUB which apparently is the new “place to be” in NYC. DJ VITALE was absolutely murdering the Hip Hop set…it’s been a while since I heard nothing but Hip Hop ALL NIGHT at the club….was refreshing! DJs Riz, Klutch, StoneRock and a handful of other heavy hitters were also in the building so it ended up being a great night to catch up with the homies (after all…DJs are generally way too shy to go interact with other “normal” people…..uhhhhh…especially girls).

Monday we headed to the Moodswing 360 headquarters and spent the morning catching up with everyone in the office. We overheard some conversations about upcoming tours and event– not only for us but other Moodswing artists and let me tell you….2010 is gonna be HUGE for everyone on the roster!! Around 3pm we jumped in a car and headed to the Borgata Casino in Atlantic City, New Jersey for our show at MUR MUR nightclub. As always…even though it’s a Monday night….the club was INSANE! DJ PS1 was rockin’ it with us and even Adam Lambert from American Idol was in the house. Made it to bed by 6am…slept like a baby, waking up just in time to take a freezing cold shower (WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO THE HOT WATER???) before heading to the airport and flying back home!

After being home for less than 24 hours, we’re back in the studio working on the Blast Off #3 and a few new original tracks. Tonight make sure you make it out to Infusion Lounge for ROCK-IT! WEDNESDAYS. It’s gonna be a wild night…we have guest DJs Hella Miles (BIRTHDAY BOY!!!!), DON LYNCH (CAPTAIN MOHAWK/FAUXHAWK) and J ESPINOSA (GENERAL BAD ASS). That’s a dream team right thurrrrr!
