Filed under: Culture,Current Events,Music,Spotlight: Los Angeles — l0ckd0wn @ 10:17 pm

This is a mix from a local Los Angeles DJ that spins Top40, Club, House and R&B.  Very talented individual that is eager to please his audience.  I am generally not a fan of the more mainstream genres, but DJ Uniek has a unique way of making it all come together!

Kenneth Thomas’ Podcast Obsessions

Kenneth Thomas

Kenneth Thomas - Kenneth Thomas presents Obsessions

Kenneth Thomas

Kenneth Thomas is without doubt one of the most promising young DJs in the electronic scene right now. There’s an intelligence and a well defined style to his sets. He’s quickly emerging as one to watch in the next generation of superstar DJs”. When Paul Oakenfold has this to say about someone people can tend to stop and take a listen. Following in an elite class consisting of Dave Ralph, D:Fuse & Hernan Cattaneo, its seems every 5 years or so Oakenfold hand picks a future star to take under his wing and the latest selection is Kenneth Thomas. Hailing out of the Detroit, the birthplace of Techno, KT stands out with his emotional and melodic sound. Some might not see the connection of Detroit to his sound, but the connection is there. The same aggression that spawned the early techno sounds of the 90′s is the fuel that fires Kenneth to explore the emotional side of the musical experience. Music has always been a spiritual place for Kenneth and because the depth of dance music goes well beyond a conscious level, there’s an underlying exploration and experience in every set and track.

Beyond traveling the globe, Kenneth has also become a juggernaut in the studio over the past 3 years having completed over 40 tracks and remixes for labels including Baroque, Armada, Om, Perfecto, Cuurve, Alter Ego, Hope and more. Now, busy working on his second EP for Markus Schulzs’ Coldharbour Recordings and coming off recent remixes for David Guetta, Jan Johnston, Oliver Moldan, Jeff Mills and even Scott Wieland, we have seen this ‘Dj at heart’ break new ground in the areas of production. And now beyond DJing & producing, KT is also A&R for Perfecto Records and is helping spearhead the renaissance of one of the greatest labels dance music has ever seen.The future is bright for Kenneth. Touring regularly around the world sharing his blend of progressive minded dance music, his focus has never changed since day one, “This is the most amazing sound I have ever encountered, I just want to share it with as many people as possible.” – The DJ List

Why Christmas Sucks

Filed under: Culture,Current Events,News — l0ckd0wn @ 3:38 pm
Fuck Christmas!

So it is the 23rd of December and all is well in the land of single people. That is, until you realize that everything around you is accentuated by couples, the idea of being a couple, getting gifts for your insignificant other, wife or husband, or the idea that you should suddenly ask that “special” person to be yours. When did Christmas become the bastard child of Valentine’s Day?

Fuck Christmas!

Being single during the holidays seems to be one of the most depressing, and frustrating, times of year. It is not as if you have a choice to be happy and joyous being a single person during a time when marital amalgamation is force fed to us in every jewelry, department store and holiday advertisement. I could just be a cynical prick, I could just be another lonely man wandering around the mall, or I could be another one of those people that looks at the holiday season as a time to buy “presents” because the holiday dictates we do so, rather than this compelling need to buy something for someone to show them how much I give a shit.

Maybe next year my tune will be different if I find someone special to share the holiday with. Then again, maybe not: Even when I had that “special someone” to share the holidays with, it always turned into such a big fiasco over presents and family and friends and get togethers and parties. It is never about “spending time with your family and friends to show them how much you love and care for them” it is about “how much have you spent on your friends and family?” I suppose that living in the center of the materialistic universe (Los Angeles) does not help brighten my spirits of Christmas, but then again, I do wonder if the spirit of Christmas is accented differently in places where life is a little slower and homely?

What’s Happenin from NY

Filed under: Current Events,Music,Other Blogs,Spotlight: New York — Drew @ 6:53 pm

Hello Everybody!!

Just saying hello! I will be representing the East Coast and Canadian side of the electronic music scenes surrounding Buffalo & Toronto. Living in Buffalo, so much of what I post will be centered on the western NY region, but with the quality of music found out here, that’s not really a problem at all. Buffalo is a hidden gem of techno, house, and electro and is over looked on the national scene for larger spots like NYC. Although there is a lack of national acts visiting the area, the locals make up for it with a true passion and love for the music… And they do it well!

Soon I hope to have another website up with some links to mixes and productions from the guys out here, (maybe later this week) until then…

Peace,

Drew

Somehow Still Alive @ The San Pedro Brewery, June 13th 2008

Nestled in the heart of downtown San Pedro, the San Pedro Brewery sits in between shops, restaurants and small clubs. Having the average selection of micro brews, the Brewery presents a small stage in the heart of the bar for local bands in the area to perform. On Friday, June 13th, the Brewery hosted Sean Lane & the Hellhounds & Somehow Still Alive to keep the bar rocking until the early morning hours.

Starting off the evening, the Hell Hounds brought a blues infused, rockabilly style sound to open it for my
local friends, Somehow Still Alive. The Hellhounds started out soulful and bluesy, getting the bar crowd bobbing their heads and tapping their feet to some of their soulful original tunes.

After about an hour, the Hellhounds ended their set after getting the bar warmed up for the main event! Around 11:45PM Somehow Still Alive started off their set with a bang, playing Frontline, my favorite track of their’s, early off in the set. The crowd was really responsive and you could feel the energy in the room. The guys played quite a few tracks off of their freshman release, Afterall as well as playing at least one new track I hadn’t heard throughout their set. By the end of their set the bar was up and arms and having a great time. All in all a great show although the bar’s stage was tiny in comparison to other hot spots for local talent in the area. Either way Somehow Still Alive put on a great performance and I am definitely looking to go see them again (maybe at a little bit bigger spot next time…).
