@Questlove sells Superbowl Tix to spin in DC! (Kind of)

Questlove comes back to the beloved Nation's Capital to watch the Big Game and spin the afterparty.

How did we manage to get this man, who is clearly a sports fan, to come down here on Superbowl Sunday?

1. He loves us.
2. We had Obama call.
3. We offered many beautiful womens.

Ok, maybe none of the above. This is the rescheduled date for the snowed out 1/26 40th Birthday Party for the man of interest.

This guy is selling his Superbowl Tickets to come party with us!

Questlove Turns 40 Shawty!

"He's 40?!?!"

"It's his birthday?"

"Is he gonna be there?"

"He's DJing his own birthday party?"

Nonstop questions. Yes, is the answer to all of the above.

Questlove


The man who has been behind the beats and music of so many projects that have been so important for over 15 years. The single most energetic supporter of the black fisted Afro Pic. Maybe the happiest man we know with respect to what he does for a living. (We think Dick Vitale comes in first. Thus the maybe) Ahmir, Questlove, ?love, Brother Question....

Happy Birthday Brother. The Big 4 - 0. It's been a great 40. Looking forward to the next 40.

Come on out and celebrate with us. Bring a present. Bring your dancing shoes. Bring your friends.

And just in case you were thinking about coming late...we've got the Fatback DJ's Phillipe & KC on deck to warm things up. Hot off their 3yr Anniversary Party this past Sat.



Get Your Tix Now!

Little Dragon DC - the Countdown

Week of the show. 3 days to go.

This morning had a chat with our good pal Guy, who manages Little Dragon in preparation for the show this weekend. I'm all excited now and attempting to accurately revisit how I felt when the material for the second album touched me. First some of the songs live and then the album. Machine Dreams. It's kept me happy and held me over.

(As I write this my random iPod playlist has jumped to them twice...."Wink" playing right now. )

Well word is the next album is done. Being mastered. I can't wait. I'm so very excited to see what this band will be capable of. Everything seems to always be done well with this crew. And they are great people too. So...I'll stop babbling now. I'm really looking to forward to thisSaturday's show at Black Cat.

Hope to see you there.

The People's Party - "Axel F"

Ok,

So we just wanted to pay homage, give props, testify, wreckonize...

This past week was the inaugural night of the all new "People's Party" @ Liv Nightclub and featured the launch of Axel F. The Soul Controllers were in the house strong, with DJ Stylus and DJ Jahsonic both spinning, with Book and Bush Head sightings. Also on the decks...renaissance man...Adrian Loving. People were moving all night long. It was and is the early pic for party of the year. Yeah, we know it's only the second week, but shit...it was that good.

Check out pics from the man behind a lense that always captures greatness in energy and movement.
