Classic house track. Shake and Pop has really been making the rounds lately with the heavy bass scene taking off all around the globe. This track is timeless really. Solid bassline, solid danceable riff. Good times.
Some genius upon genius took some footage of southern church dancing and matched it up to a Andy C and MC GQ live set. Perhaps the best thing I have every seen on youtube. SOLID GOLD

Blackkat Mayday Jam 2008 from Steven Hubert on Vimeo.
Every year now for the past 10 years or so I have been making it my mission to go the Blackkat Mayday parties. There is just something so freaking awesome about dancing outside during the day with a bunch of older kids I danced with many years ago, families, old people, and new kids to the scene.
Today was no exception. Another great party by a crew I have loved for years. Big up’s Chrome, Jason BK, Grandmaster Caz, and of course Lenny Dee for laying down the jams.
This just in kids!

write you a summons. The less our neighbors have to complain about,
the more fun we can have.

Pratt Steam Whistles
Midnight blast steam whistles and calliopes operated by Conrad
Milster, chief engineer.
From Kath of the Kath and Alex in Brooklyn blog: “Every year, we
walk over to the Pratt campus in Brooklyn to watch and hear the
antique steam whistles. The engineer at the Pratt steam engine room
has a massive collection of rare old train steam whistles, and is
nice enough to invite the neighborhood to enjoy them every New Year’s
Eve for a weird and wonderful celebration. From what I understand,
the Pratt campus is one of the only steam-powered colleges remaining
in the country (come visit us and we’ll try to take you on the steam
engine room tour). The New Year’s Eve celebration consists of about
20 steam whistles of various sizes, powered by the Pratt steam engine
room, and the general public is invited to come pull the cords to
blow the whistles. It really is amazing … and heart-stoppingly
*loud.* I mean, you almost throw up it’s so loud.

NOTE: This is one of the only bar parties with cover that we list on
New Year’s. We’ve never actually been — we’re usually working — but
people always tell us that it’s a good, consistent night, well booked
and low on the index of hassle and drama. It’s not super cheap (both
parties should share the same cover), but it’s also not the kind of
highway robbery that goes on in most of the legal venues in town.

A New Year’s Eve House Party for Maniacs and Lovers
New Years Eve, what are you going to do? Are you going to the bar?
Really? That bar? $40 for what? Well then. Your girlfriend will be
mad and your father will disown you because you knew but you didn’t
tell them about New Years Eve 08 at the Church, a New Years Eve House
Party for Maniacs and Lovers.
Look for the white gate between two steeples — that is where you
will hear sounds of new goddamn bliss emanating. Yes, the space was
once truly a Church as you will see from the structure, obscure snake
handling Christians once did their hoodoo in there. Now it’s a home
of madness and Visigoths.
Admission is cheap and gains you entry to the gates of Hedon, with a
complementary glass of champagne, as in real champagne that comes
from Champagne, France. And of course other libations will be on
hand, you silly. And there will be live rock and roll bands: Judith
Light, Discovery, Madam Robot and the Lust Brigade, and Your 33 Black
Angels. There will also be four turntables of reckless breakless
beats grooves and assorted sonic lightening and very very special
guests DJs from across the sea that will take this thing into the
very wee hours of the rest of your life. Dance with a hot stranger.
Marvel at the freaky projections, dig on the sinewy lines of ink and
paint and the grotesque masks that adorn the walls. Shake off every
bad thing you thought you had in this year and get clean getting dirty.

parties.
