BUTWC Presents: My Little Party with House of Stank - Tuesday 5/11

This Tuesday at the Darkroom. Will. Be. Epic. We're going a little bit New York, a little bit Chicago...

Blow Up The Water Cooler first came across House Of Stank a few months ago. I instantly fell in love with their track "Get Up, Yeah!" because it sounded so fresh and so clean like much of the modern stuff that's around now... but what I REALLY loved was how it reminded of me of my old partying days in the Chicago house & rave scene back in the late 90's/early 2000's. Flash forward 6 months to last Thursday when I heard Christy Love & W. Jeremy from House Of Stank DJ for my friends Jason & Chaz ("The Beat" is their monthly. Check it out! :) Suffice to say their set at Fat Baby blew my mind; I booked them that same night LOL

We are UEBER,SUPER-DUPER excited for you to hear the intoxicating HOS sound. I KNOW you will instantly fall in love with their mix of oldschool jack and newschool flavor.

Resident DJs
DJ Dooga
and
COROCET
will be warming up the crowd and keeping things gravy.

The always lovely RICARDO will be behind the bar.

And the Sun is Shining - Friday Jamz (UHN!)

This is one of my favoritest house jams from Blaze that was originally released on my boy Derrick Carter and Luke Solomon's label Classic back in the ravin' days of 1997. Even then it was an instant, well... classic. Now, it's clear this track has held the test of time and will always be considered to be one of the best deep house tracks in all of electronic music production. If you beg to differ I think you need to check yourself.

Enjoy your weekend and look around - there's beauty everywhere!

Blaze - Lovelee Dae (Tanner Ross & KiloWatts Mix)

Blaze - Lovelee Dae (Isolée Mix)

Blaze VS. Funk D'Void - Lovelee Home (Demo Mix)

Goldfrapp to release "Alive" as second 'Head First' single

Just wanted to post this album cover real quick because it's such a creepy, creepy shot of Alison but in true Goldfrapp form, they keep it going with the 80's heavenly dream theme from 'Head First' and "Rocket".

"Alive" will be released on May 24th in the UK on Mute UK, and if you haven't been to Goldfrapp.com lately, you should take a visit because there's a new video/site intro to the tune of "Dreaming". It's a cool aerial city view with puffy cotton candy clouds and.... LAZERS!!!

Pavement Ticket Raffle at the Darkoom this Tuesday!

In a move that oddly juxtaposes indie rock with house music (*my two fav. genres*), I'm going to give one lucky fool a free GEN ADM ticket to a most-coveted show - Pavement's reunion at Rumsey Playfield on Wednesday, Sept. 22.

When you arrive at the Darkroom on 165 Ludlow you will get a number. At 1:00 AM a number will be chosen at random and that person will receive their hard ticket to the show right then and there. How you like 'dem apples?

There will also be another OPEN VODKA BAR 10:30-11:30 PM.

Stay tuned, special guests TBA (I mean it!)

Robin Thicke - Make U Love Me (Blu H.Q. Remix)

"I'm the kinda guy who lives life on the edge"

It's obvious why Derrick Carter would remix this song. The speaky-melodic vocals laid down by Robin Thicke SOUND like a Derrick Carter song. This remix just adds a sexy signature boompty that begs you to move your hips to the beat.

"Imma do it better than your boyfriend ever could"

Goldfrapp Performing "Rocket" Live!

This is the first glimpse we're getting at Goldfrapp's new FEMALE (RAWRRR) drummer Daisy who is rocking a wicked mo-beau font that would make Sheena Beaston proud.

Speaking of hair, part of the reason why I'm posting is because I just about died when I saw Alison's permed 'do. It's SOOOOOO cute. Seriously. My head just exploded.



Head First is officially out. So go get it now!!!
