Thats right kids! brand new monthly every first Wednesday at vig bar in the LES….. finally landed a gig in the big city!! come show some shrugs ‘n’ love while I drop as much soul as humanly possible!!

see you guys there!

Hay hay!  Some of the other Shruggers (K!O x Minitonka x Scallywag) are starting a new Tuesday monthly at Legion.  Though we’re somewhat competing with some of our own familia (RAAAAAAAANDO w/ 8 A’s…DJ Fulltimefun x ARQ), it’s only once a month.  Plus we’ll have live bands and whatnot, in addition to zee good ol’ dance music.  And who says you can’t hit both parties???!!  This “good” weather should be enough of a motivator, party people <3

Ahh zee Beeg Apple…zee theekness of zee summer aire ees so demanding, eet ees as eef hour bodies geeve us no choice but to submit to nightlife, no?

But of course because you are now already knowing: zee steeky weends and nightly moistures are off no regard when Adonis Jackson and Scallywag are playing zee records we hold so dear. And wees theese two at zee helm, eet ees for certain that we haff boarded a cruiseship off zee mind, one zat ees forever steeped een luxury. Barbados…St. Tropez…. every song a voyage, every note like drops off champagne een zee sunset.

And so we must go, enlivened by zee radiance off solsteece, so zat zee long light can pour out from hour hearts and onto zee dancefloor, eellumeenating our movements for all to see…

Chroma

thurs /// saturate your mind /// synthetic hues from the 80’s /// pre def-post punk /// scallywag + alain d = duotone perfection /// clean mixing w/ little contrast /// (R)eally (G)ood (B)ooze /// vision science projected all evening /// all people are additive /// no opponents to process /// stop by & add some colour

A few weeks ago the crew organized a massive 20 head BYOB & Food Karaoke night in K-Town. Although we missed a few members of the crew: Four Loco, Beer, Champagne, and Asian Snacks helped fill the gap. We also sang stronger in their honor.

If we weren’t already attached to the hip, This brought us even closer (especially DJ Scallywag who sang his heart out to each and every soul in that room). The 1st of many Karaoke sessions was well documented by our home-girl Chrissy and I know with the weather getting warmer we’re sure to be running through town even more The Karaoke night ended with me singing “A whole new world” and I really think I touched some hearts.

Take a look.

Ohh! Oh my! Come now, make haste to your weendow! A foundation of porcelain forms een silence, and zee whorled ees blanketed anew! As we watch zee majesty of nature descending slowly from zee sky, freegid as eet ees beeyootiful, we often wonder aloud to hourselves: how ees eet that we too can purify hour sensibilities??

And then, like a snowflake creestallising eenside off hour minds, we recall with glee: Ah! eet ees almost time once aigain, time for Brooklyn’s premiere evening at zee discotheque! And we are knowing then for certain zat Adonis Jackson and Scallywag will play hour musik… zee musique which brings us theese feeling off rebirth within!

Zee Legendary Diana Ross most certainly knew how to confront zee cold with fearless abandon! Fanged creatures off zee ice are but off no match for a diva of theese magnitude!

And we mustn’t not forget off Freeez! For their chilly namesake gives way to a bounty of crazy hot steps and fiery rhythms! Wees keytars theese heavy, you can not barely weestand zee urges you haff to burst wees sweat!

So eet ees settled. Een but merely two days, we will go boldly een to zee white off night, laughing at zee cold as we pay no mind! Instead, we shall heat the dancefloor as we twirl een deelite, igniting zee midnite fellowship wees zee fires eenside off hour hearts!
