S.T.A.Y. B.A.D.


Hey yo...S.T.A.Y.B.A.D. is the new first Friday dance party at Temporary Spaces and it is friggin dope. DJs Tom Hanks and Brap come through with the bangers and don't let up till the cops start talking shit. Indisputably, they keep it real. But why? For starters, they've been doing this dj shit for a minute and aren't just some tight jeans wearing, itunes rocking bitches. Hanks came up in New York's kitchen-sink styled scene and learned under some of the best DJs the East Coast has to offer. Expect anything. Well, anything raw. And here is the cool part: DJ Brap cut his teeth in the uber-competitive London nightlife scene where only the strong survive. Not to get overly Darwinian on ya'll, but dude had to learn some knob-twiddling, live-looping madness to compete with those bitches over there. Basically, his professionalism tempers Hanks's punk rock mess and keeps the night from eroding into a complete nihilistic shit show where Ludacris punches out Richard Hell and art school girls od in the shitter. Not to say that won't happen anyway, just that Brap's selection of fidget house, wonk and nu soca keep it in check. So expect that and a healthy serving of Mid-Atlantic club music, alt-rock gems, balls-to-the-wall dirty south and all the illest remixes around because they're killin them blogs son! And in case you didn't notice, TS1 is basically on fire these days. Holla at RSVP@staybad.com and we'll see you there.

So I feel like it went alright...

me and brent's new monthly at temporary spaces started off pretty friggin hype for having two and a half days to promote and me being in arizona for two of them. we got asked back and are beginning our premeditated rise to the top yo. so lets "go all west coast on this one" and you fools better come through in a big way october 3rd. to hold ya'll over, here's brent's mixtape. and don't worry about being a download buster: its only 20 megabytes and rages hard.
oh, and we saw mack winston again last night at spaceland and i'm still convinced that they sound exactly like a rock band should in 2008. while i heard strokes tinges last time, now i know the truth: they don't sound like the strokes, they sound like tom petty imitating the strokes. i wanna remix them and hopefully, we'll get them cleared for october 3rd.
stay bad ya'll, stay bad.

Brap mix tape sendspace
