Nebraska and KC // New Moombahton

Big weekend!  Heading out to the plains to rock Gunk in Omaha and Superb! in Kansas City.  Hope to eat a big ass steak too.

Our next (and final?) Moombahton De Acero EP is also out next week with tracks from me and DJ Apt One as always, but also newcomers Jay Fay, Cassius Slay and Tiny Cat.  They’ve all got releases coming out on Young Robots in the next few months.

Check the preview mix now, go download that shit next week! 9/20.

Young Robots // Parties

A couple years ago, it looked like a good idea to launch a record label. So we put together Young Robots and put out a few cool records. But it wasn’t really working, so we backed off.

Cut forward a year or so, the stars are aligned again and we’re back in action and putting out some seriously cool records in the fall, starting with a free moombahton compilation in a couple short weeks.  So look out for that (and the new website), and check out the Young Robots Soundcloud in the mean time!

Aside from that, DJ Apt One will be joining me at Players Club this week…

…and I’ll be at Dominion with Pumpkin Patch on Thursday night!  And then Philadelphyinz returns on Saturday in Philly!

New York Sweaty // Duck Duck

Pants Dance tonight w/ Lol Boys + Kid Color + Skinny Friedman + Nice Guys

I’m spinning tonight (Friday) at Le Poisson Rouge for New York Sweaty.  This is one of my favorites parties in the city, it balances a “cool kids and smart music” vibe with a “dumb music for fun people” vibe in a way that few can in these weird times of post-alternative culture and internet music saturation.  You will hear “Far Nearer” and you will hear Katy Perry and you will hear me play some moombahton bootlegs of rap songs I’m gonna be making all day.

It’s also my “official birthday celebration” in New York because I was basically falling over from exhaustion on my actual birthday.  Let’s drink, friends!

Tomorrow night (Saturday) I will be out at Duck Duck in Bushwick for STOP! HAMMER TIME! with Big Vic!  I will be playing Teena Marie and singing loudly in the booth.  Fuck with me.
