CALIFORNIA TOUR WITH : TALK




TALK here just making a stop by the NIGHTMOVES HQ to touch base with all the people who read the blog when I post on it!

Favorite music at the moment.

Iron Age - Sleeping Eye of the Watcher.
Super heavy and epic crossover from Austin, Texas. They have nothing to do with dance music, and that's why I love it.

Baobinga + ID - Bass music Sessions #1
Baobinga is one of my favorite producers. His music is very fast, bass heavy and in your face, but its super fucked up. The track "Still Tippin'" is probably one of their best work.

Slowdive - Souvlaki Soulstation
Slowdive is an epic shoegaze band from the 90s that never got a break but put out one epic ass album with tons of really pretty love songs that are great to listen to while I'm travelling on the plane or bus.

Lil Silva - Nightskanker
Li'l Silva is a 19 year old British kid doing some awesome productions on Night Slugs records from London. There's just something so simple and easy about it, but its so hot and evil sounding. I play his track "Nightskanker" all the time.

Favorite clothes at the moment.

I got a super old baseball jacket in San Fransisco for a great deal of $65 at this vintage shop called the Wasteland, and a b+w tie dye shirt that says in different fonts "DIE HIPPIE SCUM!" on it. I also picked up like three new Trouble and Bass tshirts. Thanks dudes.

CALIFORNIA TOUR.

I got off the plane and had to get my ride to drive me immediately to Hollywood to play at Cinespace for Steve Aoki's party, DIMMAK TUESDAYS, with DanOH, Them Jeans and Acidwashed. As soon as I got there, I had to play. It was super fun though! Everyone was very responsive.

After LA, it was to catch a Greyhound bus to Sacramento and play at another club night called HUMP with my friends JUST LOCO and DJ WHORES. It was a slow night, but I made the best of it. The next day, we got up and headed to San Fransisco. I got a bunch of clothes. A vintage baseball jacket, a b+w tie dye shirt that reads "DIE HIPPIE SCUM!!" and a band tshirt, one of my favorite bands, DARKTHRONE.

After the shopping, we headed to Santa Cruz to meet up and hang out and watch my friends The Captain and Drop The Lime kill this club called Motiv. It was super fun. In the morning we ate at a weird cafe where you bus your own table and if they see you on your cellphone they will make you leave!?

Saturday was my last night to DJ a party. The party was BLOW UP. It was HUGE. Super fun! I played a very good set and had alot of people leaving the upstairs where Treasure Fingers was playing to come dance to my set! Pretty sure I played an hour longer than what I was supposed to.

In the morning, we said our goodbyes and I headed back to the south east to see my friends and family.

NIGHTMOVES NOVEMBER

I'm very excited for Nightmoves everytime! Its always fun. We're going to have a blast and I hope you all come.
