Jupiter, a DJ and producer from Los Angeles, has been blowing my mind since I first heard him play about 2 years ago, but he has been blowing minds for a while before I discovered him!
Not only is this cat one of the nicest people you will meet, he's an amazing DJ. I cannot say enough good things about this guy, so I hope you will check out him out!!!
He just released his whole set from Lucent L'amour as a free download . I suggest you check it out!

OK... Alright... Last Thursday at AFRO FUNKE' was a prime example of HOW IT FEELS TO BE ROCKED by some great DJ sets!
GLENN RED did yet another beautiful set, and J.SOLE jumped in to build on that energy, before Raw Fusion's DJ ASPARAGUS came all the way from Sweden to scorch up the sweaty dance floor.
Much love to all who came early and got the giveaways of the K'NAAN record "Troubadour." Remember: 9-10pm for these releases parties.
This week we have a VERY special musical journey in store for you PLUS an African fashion show that is NOT TO BE MISSED...trust us.

MAMI AFRIKA FASHION SHOW The words burst of color, fabulous, traditional meets contemporary, fun, real, festive, soulful and one of a kind all come to mind when the designs of Wawi Amasha are seen. Originally from Kenya, Wawi is an up and coming designer/artist creater of MamiAfrika designs which is her beautiful translation of meshing the ever inspiring African culture she grow up in (including vibrant fabrics from all over Africa) with a funky Western flare. Growing up in a small village in Embu surrounded by raw unadaltarated nature has definitely influenced Wawi's designs and anyone that sees her work gets the feeling that everything she does is from the heart. MamiAfrika is a brand that any woman no matter her size, shape or race will feel absolutely stunning in. Her fashion shows are unlike most, calling upon the girls to dance their hearts out while drummers and other instruments accompany them in a somewhat spiritual gathering. A MamiAfrika show is truly a celebration of life and all the joys that come with it. This girl's got mad style, you just have to take a glance at her to agree. www.mamiafrika.com
