i suck...

Sorry i haven't posted in a minute. I have a new and much imporved site on the way, complete with podcasts!

...but this is dope:

the letter B

3 things to do with the letter B today.

1) Brendan Bring 'Em at Redline last night. The crowd was crazy and my man killed it. If you missed it you are a huge sleeper. Boston does not get this kind of performance from a DJ very often.

2 & 3) Beer Robots and Burning Man. My boy Nick made a beer robot and brought it to Burning man. You can see the slideshow of it here. I have made a promise to myself that I'm making the trip next year.

back from spain...

So I arrived home from my 2 week vacation in Ibiza and Barcelona on Sunday to the typical Boston rain and cold...and it's still August. Depressing. But not as depressing as having to return to Boston nightlife after partying in the dance music capital of the world and probably the coolest city I have ever seen. The musical highlight for me was Chris Leibing's Sunday Spinclub party at Privilege in Ibiza. LIVE, BANGING, TECHNO! Here is some video from my first night in Ibiza: MAW & Mr. V @ Defected in the House, Pacha.

swing it daddy

Ninja Tune's newest signing is off the chain. Probably the best marriage of House and Jazz that I've heard since St. Germain's "Rose Rouge". I blogged it on SoulClap.us and you can listen to some shit here.

I keep my fitted real low

Everyone's favorite fitted just launched a flagship store in NYC. If you don't know Below Zero will tell you.

"Kentucky blue shirt with my U.K. hat, straight from the K so I rep the Wildcats"

All night long...

No. Not like Lionel Richie (although this is probably the best commercial of all time), but like party til the sun comes up. This Friday my self and my Soul Clap compatriot Malik El Haj Chazz Shabazz III have the honor of opening up for the legendary Josh Wink at Boston's only afterhours club: Rise. This is one of our biggest gigs to date so believe we will be coming with some next level shit! Rise is members only so you need to hit me up to get in.

On another note: Diplo's Mad Decent tour hit Great Scott last night with CSS and Bonde Do Role. It was aight. There were way to many nerds in the building and it was a million degrees so they kept rubbing up on me with their nasty nerd sweat. Mistaker has a less hater review and he took this picture of me.

it's big like that

Soul Clap/NGP was just featured in the Boston Phoenix! Bigups to David Day for the article. Check it.

Killing it

Big things for Boston beat banger, Mr. Foxxxx! Keep doin it dunny.

The Beast

I'll be honest, I was rooting for Dirk, Avery and the Mavs, but I can't hate on Dwayne. He monstered the NBA Finals and is clearly the next MJ. Basketball fans thank you, Mr. Wade.

And while we're on the subject of sports... I love the world cup. GO USA!

PS1 summer warm up

PS1 recentlly announced this year's lineup for their legendary Saturday outdoor Warm Up parties. THe highlight looks to be the first event on July 1st: Body & SOUL Ten-Year Reunion with Danny Krivit, François K. and Joe Claussell. Def worth the trip to NYC.

this is the first year in a few that my bday has not fallen on the weekend, but it's all good, cause i'm celebrating on saturday when me and my main man Chaz Shabaz (the Soul Clap unit) return to Boston's big house room: Underbar. You best believe it's on with the Moet and Alaze in full effect bitches. Shout if you want to wild out with me.
