It’s been one year since Turntable Lab set up shop in L.A. and to celebrate, they’re throwing their biggest party yet—so big, in fact, it’s two parties stretched across tonight and tomorrow.
On the bill tonight we have Hollertronix (i.e. Diplo and Low Bee) and Blaqstarr at the 700 capacity EX_PLX in Echo Park (L.A.). This is likely to sell out quick, trust!
Here’s a jammy from Hollertronix’ first EP in 2004. This shit set that whole shit off:
MP3: Hollertronix - David Banner vs Lil Flip vs Eurythmics - We Bout Our Money vs Sweet Dreams
This vinyl EP has been re-released in slightly altered form (dubbed #1.5 EP) and is available now from Turntable Lab.
Oh yea, if you didn’t know by now. All the Mad Decent (label related to Diplo and Hollertronix) podcasts are available for stream (and download) from Diplo’s .mac account. However, it looks like the account has hit its bandwidth limit for the moment, so you’ll definitely want to bookmark it, check back often and get e’ything when it’s live again.
We’ll still hook you up tho! Last March, DJ Blaqqstar (preforming in L.A. tonight) dropped a mix for Mad Decent Radio Worldwide and it’s hot fire. Dude must DJ with oven-mitts on:
MP3: Mad Decent - Worldwide Radio #14, DJ Blaqstarr, I’m Bangin’ [26:42]
Visit Mad Decent’s MySpace to hear and purchase more Blaqstarr.
Yes! And on Saturday, Electro legend Egyptian Lover will be doing his stuff extra smooth for the ladies to shake it. One of the few people from L.A. doing Electro Dance Music in the 1980’s, our city’s got mad love for Lover. If you’re not up on this man, look to Wikipedia and throw this 1984 classic in heavy rotation:
MP3: Egyptian Lover - Egypt Egypt
Visit Egyptian Lover on his Myspace pages one and two. Also check out Willow the Glasslamp Killer, ’cause he’s playing Saturday and he’s fucking awesome.
