Let's Play House Updates

Let's Play House has been going really strong since we fully launched it in July, and Jacques and I couldn't be happier. We've been receiving some tremendous support and exceptionally positive feedback from attendants, which is truly an honor.

We had a spectacular party at Baddies in Manhattan with Justin Miller and Jacques (J&J) spinning the whole night through; raged from midnight until the sun came up at Cameo in Brooklyn with Lovefingers and CFCF as guests; and are getting really stoked for tonight's residency debut at The Counting Room in Williamsburg with LPH crew members Drew Heffron and Lloyd Harris (Lloydski).

Please come out tonight if you can and dance away the workweek stress that's been building up (all the information you need can be found here)! Whether or not you can make it, be sure to download the immaculate mixes we recorded from the Cameo event below. They're something else. Oh, and check out the photos we snapped that night as well!

BBBD Mix: "0707"

I haven't posted in an ungodly long amount of time, and for that I sincerely apologize. As you all know by now, BBBD can barely be considered an active blog―it's more a personal alias and handle than anything else. That said, I do like to keep it around and I'll try my best to continue to publish thing to it every once in a while.

Today's mix was prompted by a four-hour set my good friend Jacques Renault and I are playing on July 10 at the Williamsburg American Apparel store. I do not publicly DJ―that's not my role in this world by any means―but every once in a while I like to goof around with a friend on the turntables. Since I haven't made a mix in a while, I decided to sit down for an hour today and get back in the groove of things. I think it turned out pretty well.

Please swing by and say hi if you're in Brooklyn this Saturday.

Dead Disco Pulls № 7

It's been ages since I last posted anything to BBBD and for that I am sincerely sorry. Life has been hectic to say the least... finding time to focus on anything outside of work is becoming increasingly more difficult by the day.

Rest assured it's all wonderful, beautiful stuff. I'll spill the beans later...

For now, let's just listen to some tunes! Below are some tracks I'll be playing on Dead Disco within the next few weeks. Also, please be sure to tune into Let's Play House, a program I do with Jacques Renault featuring live DJ mixes from some of NYC's most esteemed clubs. Finally, head on over to Anthem Online for five hours of Jacques and My Cousin Roy in the mix... I recorded the two last week at subMercer for the party I sponsored there.

the Beatdown Soundmachine - More Love (LTJ X-Perience Mix)

Prins Thomas - Atter En Trall

Dead Disco Pulls № 6

Let's cut to the chase and get some music in your ears to finish off this beautiful Wednesday with even more sunshine and warmth than the weather's already dishing out!

I've been absolutely hooked on all three of these songs recently and thought you all should get addicted as well. LocusSolus is a group that DJ Harvey picked up for his "DJ Harvey Presents" series of 12"s on International Feel Recordings. When I say nothing is known about them, I mean it. Think dubbed out cosmic disco.

The Neula remix is a thick, syrupy house track overloaded with bright piano ditties, funky conga beats, and synth swirls. Instant cheer.

Brinton McKay is a pseudonym that John Selway (Neurotic Drum Band, Disintegrator, Rancho Relaxo Allstars) has been sporadically and rarely using for edits since 2000. The track is insanely fun and magical... but don't let me spoil it for you!

In addition to listening to Dead Disco every Friday (I know you all do), please, if you're in NYC, come to the party I'm throwing with Jacques Renault this Thursday, March 18. It's a monthly that we plan on having indefinitely at this juncture. Come support me, Jacques, and our first guest, Brennan Green! All the information you'd ever need can be found here.

LocusSolus - Little Boots

Neule - Pierced Heart (LSB Piano Magic Remix)
