SAME NIGHT & VENUE AS "THE COOL KIDS" ...
BUT THERE WILL BE NO ADVANCED TICKET SALES FOR THIS SHIT!
(go see egg foo, then stay up late for the rawness!)
THIS SATURDAY JUNE 7TH...
THE "REAL COOL KIDS" -AKA- THE BOMB SQUAD!
PS... IF YOU DONT KNOW WHO THE BOMB SQUAD IS,
GOOGLE THAT SHIT BITCH!
PPS...
Come thru and check out these DJ's as they flaunt the latest fashions (all dj fashion show starts at midnight).
Also I came up with a new term for members of our community this weekend...
TEENAGE DJ'S
While most of these kids are well out of their teens, I think this title fits because they know about as much about records as I did when I was a teenager.
Here's how you can spot them...
1- Big emphasis on playing records that Daft Punk, Armand, etc sampled in their "disco sets" (at first I was genuinely impressed with their deep knowledge of these records, than I realized there are like 10 million blogs that list and post these records).
2 - Instead of saying they "really love" a dj or "the dj killed it" they say things like "that guy really know his shit." This implies that the Teenage DJ's blog base of music knowledge is somehow comparable to someone's who shaped the game like a Cosmo Vitelli.
3 - Talking to them about music makes your stomach cringe in the same way as Estelle's lyrics on American Boy.
4 - They never stop trying to get gigs or setting up photo op's (squeaky wheel theory).
5 - They've heard of everything except Moodymann & Second Cousins...
To be honest this isn't some hater shit, just an observation. I prefer this generation to the "Too Cool DJs" of my generation who just sit around and complain about how they have to "go to work" making $500 an hour.
One Love & Strictly Positive Vibes To The Mighty DJ Nation....
For all of you asking for the next LA In-Stores . . . Here they are:
Tuesday 4.29.08, we have Joe Beats + Maker from 7-9 PM. Free Entry. Free Beer.
Saturday 5.17.08, we have Osborne, Flyam Sam (Flying Lotus and Sam I Am),
and the Lab's Own Michna for the Ghostly Swim In-store.
Seems like the whole crew is on there way to stardom and no one deserves it more than my man Egg Foo Young. Feels like just yesterday he was sitting next to me in the warehouse doing a short term stint in the Lab's customer service department. Pete would constantly yell things at us from the executive office like "are you guys doing ANY work?" or "it can't be THAT funny!" (For the record we were doing all the work and it was THAT funny).
Flash forward to today and I'm getting emails announcing that MICHNA (some A&R convinced him the Chinese food thing wasn't working) has signed to Ghostly International and has the first track on their new Ghostly Swim project (even beating out Dabrye).
Like all of Michna's shit I love this track Triple Chrome Dipped. You can hear the whole album here and even download it for free for a limited time.
Even better perhaps is the video they made for Michna's track. Great Job!
Were proud of you Double Pack...
Stay tuned for updates on the Ghostly Swim tour, including a stop at the Lab in LA on Saturday May 17th.
Now for some classic footage of someone getting "MICHNA'D." I hope you got a refund buddy...
