A Little Freak Out - Monday, 8.23.10

Once again dear friends, the westside's monthly convergence of rock, reggae, funk, and soul is nearly upon us. This is a strictly vinyl affair, so prepare to be laced with secret stashes from the record bins of yesteryear and du jour. 

Ghost Lyon and I will be your host selectors and as always, we have some terrific guest DJs joining us on the tables. We'd be delighted for you to grace us with your presence as we embark on a far-o ut musical journey certain to class up your Monday evening. 

For those of you who aren't in southern California but would like to check out the action, you can stream the event courtesy of the Astronaut Disco ustream here:

Listen in while you're working on your computer or keep it playing for some nice background music while you do your thing. 

Quality drinks and tunes. Never a cover. Come freak out with us... but just a little. 

Monday, August 23rd - 8PM to 2AM

Jazz Tonic - 8.18.10

Be sure to stop by Broadway Bar in downtown Los Angeles this evening between 9 & 2. My friends do this night every Wednesday and it goes off. Recommended.

If you don't live in the L.A. area or can't make it out tonight but would like to listen in, you can stream the event live right here: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/astronaut-disco

Jazz Tonic

My friends and fellow selectors, Mixmaster Noah Massey and A-Ski started one hell of a weekly jazz night at Broadway Bar in downtown L.A. last month. It's quickly becoming hump day's spot to be and for good reason. Every Wednesday night, they enlist the help of top shelf DJ talent, live musicians, MCs and poets to bring you the best that all forms of jazz have to offer.

Tonight, I'll be spinning some of my favorite jazz records with other featured guest DJs Al Jackson and Lotus Petal. Josh Koslow will be dropping some live trumpet and the night is hosted by jazz poet, AK Toney. As a special treat, the maestro, Mr. Benjamin Bertsch of IFLOZ will be dosing you with some ill visuals for a little background atmosphere.

I'll be starting the night off at 9PM sharp so be sure to come down early if you'd like to catch my set. I have some serious vinyl gems in store for you this evening and I'm quite excited to share this beautiful music with all of you.

Broadway Bar is a fantastic venue with classy decor, friendly staff, nicely priced drink specials ($4 cocktails & $3 Stellas) and ample parking. It's located at 830 S. Broadway between 8th and 9th. Hope to see you there! Stop by tonight but if you can't make it don't fret. There's always next Wednesday and fortunately for all of us... they do it up right every week. Lots of love!
