Ninjasonik/Japanther at Temp Spaces, 12/5: Finally, a Finished Flyer

My First Remix! And who but Mack Winston and the Reflections

So if any of ya'll know me or even check in on this piece every once in a while, you'll know that I think the world of Mack Winston and the Reflections. I randomly saw them in Hollywood one night and jumped right on the train. They play rock music properly and without any prefixes or suffixes. Not to say I don't love me some post- and get down with some dance- but its supremely comforting to hear the real thing sometimes. And lucky for us, they played our STAYBAD party at Temporary Spaces in October. And even luckier for me, I convinced them to let me learn how to do a remix with one of their ass kicking tracks, possibly the most ass kicking: "Manipulator." I posted the original on here a while ago and have been quietly tinkering with my version since the party last month. While I'm sure it will never be up to snuff or on par with the og version, I threw some wicked mid-atlantic drums on there and hacked at it til I got this version. Now I'm not saying it can bump in the club, but I'd certainly dance to it. And from what I hear, homeboy Brap is working on his own take on the song and I'm sure it'll be something other than a club track. Thanks for the opportunity guys and now that I got the hang of it, I'm accepting submissions. Holla!

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.
