When San Franciscan taste-maker Jeffrey Paradise isn’t busy promoting and DJing his legendary Blow Up and (the currently on-hiatus??) Frisco Disco parties, he’s working on his own music, and we here at Missingtoof are glad to be the very first to officially blog about it.
‘I’m Not Alright’ is on that sexxxy nu-disco tip with catchy hooks and bassline to boot, whereas the Le Raided remix transforms it into a heavy thumpy electro bit and fellow blogger and homeboy Johnatron of Disco Workout keeps it deep and mellow with his remix…
If this weekend was any kind of omen for the Bay Area Underground in 2008 I am feeling insanely optimistic. Skeet Skeet LA, Denny Le Nimh (NYC), BLOW UP DJ’s, Hey Willpower and a crowd of 600 brought the house down Friday at BLOW UP.
Frisco Disco saw Denny fight back his raging hang over Saturday and bring the hardest of hardcore party people to their knees. I can only ever speak for myself but I’ve never had more fun… and I’m just now recovering!
Peep some of the madness!

And if you haven’t seen the video of the latest Blow Up with Missingtoof Dj’s, get up on that shit!
Vanilla Ice! Ice Ice Baby! (Did I get your attention with that?)
Currently in Oxford—former SF resident, Blow Up family and ex-Paradise Boys member—Bertie P makes a subtle remix of the iconic—the ironic—the masterpiece: ‘Ice Ice Baby’.
And yo! Check it out! ‘Cause I can—here are two more icy hits. One, the ‘Miami Drop Mix’ from the O.G. 1990 single and two, the poetic ‘Ninja Rap’ from the poignant and vivid piece of Cinéma-vérité known as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: Secret of the Ooze.
More of these party pictures (and some insane afterparty pictures) available at Frisco Disco Fever. This past weekends Frisco Disco had Glass Candy (Portland) heating up the house, expect pics from that shindig soonly. The next BLOW UP (Dec 21) will feature electro-rapper Gold Chains and Missingtoof DJs.
Our Blow Up parties take SF off the damn chains. Blow Up, Frisco Disco, and Robot Rock parties take it to 11 every time (know your Spinal Tap references?). We’ve recently had Justice, Uffie, Steve Aoki and are set to bring in The Glass and Pink Skull next time around on the 16th. Your hosts Frisco Disco Crew, Jeffrey Paradise (a.k.a. Jefrodisiac) & Richie Panic come to hit San Francisco upside the head. All of it’s captured by photographer Lady Meleksah and videographer Peter Noble.
Blow Up is this Friday w/ special guest legendary Stretch Armstrong (from world famous ‘Stretch Armstrong and Bobbito Show‘)! Stretch is responsible for breaking many of hip-hop’s biggest stars. The Notorious B.I.G. got his break freestyling his radio program, Wu-Tang Clan, Nas and Mobb Deep all appeared on his show.
Stretch has recently turned his attention toward Electro with a wicked, grinding remix of Armand Van Helden’s ‘Touch Your Toes’ now tearing up the clubs. It should be off the chains to say the least.
And you already know how Jefrodisiac and Blow Up doest it! Last month when Missingtoof played it there was sweat dripping from the ceiling & titties falling from the sky! Can I get a witness?!
As usual, party photogs will be on hand to capture the madness! Pics from the last Blow Up with DJ Funk!
In case y’all stoners forgot! And in case you somehow missed our barrage of myspace bulletins: Special Edition of BLOW UP Tonight at The Rickshaw stop in SF! The line up is L.A. Riots, Richie Panic, Wallpaper & yep, all of the Missingtoof DJ’s! Bumpsdick is driving up from L.A. as we speak!
Everyone and their moms gonna be up in the hizzle. So you should be too. Break out your little sisters toothbrush and get your kicks all nice & clean for the club! If you’re a baller on a budget you better get your broke ass on the guestlist!!
SF’s elite party photog’s will be on hand to capture all the debauchery. So make sure you’re lookin’ cute!
