Are you excited about 2010? Think about that journey, from a year ago to now.... its important to remember!
How have you grown? How are you gonna make things better?

December 24th catch a Kilowatts xmas eve:
Direct Currents by:
KILOWATTS – Live (Native State, Thoughtless Music, PA)
James Watts is the mind behind KiloWatts and his many different projects and styles. His first album “Ground State” released on Native State Records, home to fellow pioneers Bluetech and Shen. It’s a collection of sweaty psychedelic downtempo grooves, churning molasses-thick basslines, and undulating synthetic sonorous mandalas, a whirlwind of mindblowing digital wizardry in the form of glitches and edits. His fluency in piano is evident throughout his work which embraces the bulk of electronic genres including breaks, idm, downtempo and techno…

FLYING LOTUS
(Brainfeeder, Warp L.A)
Ambassador to a whole new generation, Steve has taken the
blazing media spotlight that's focused on him and selflessly shared it with the Brainfeeder fam, the city of L.A, and way beyond...
In the new Mixmag, the BBC's Mary Ann Hobbs note's the way Flylo "manipulates electronic music reminds me of the way Hendrix manipulated the guitar. He is a completely elemental force, you hear his influences echoing in every single corner of the planet.
For me he is the most exciting artist of his generation!"
We concur, helping to shape a global movement in his midst.
Rumor has it his new album is finished, and I'll betcha a dollar we'll get to hear some of the new jammie's fresh out the box at the show.
This is the first time Lotus has thrown down an official set
since Destroy L.A in September...so get ready Los Angeles!
Come witness Flylo break all the rule's & turn the whole game
on it's head December 26th!
T-10 and counting...
DAEDELUS
(Ninja Tune, L.A)
Alfred Darlington aka Daedelus at the reigns once again for Pure Filth. Last X-mas he brought the roof down (and blew up all the power circuits to boot!) at Coachella he put on a frickin' seminar!
We're stoked to have another hometown hero back after such a productive & busy year.
Young Daedelus' has been racking up frequent flyer miles touring all over the globe, spreading the word, rockin' the monome and setting crowd's alight with his contagious performance's.
I have a feeling that this show is gonna be a special one if his recent performance's are anything to go by!
Come on L.A...time to get Dandy with Darlington, lemme see those Pork chop's!
6 BLOCC
(Pure Filth L.A)
The Legend 6Blocc is back to handle the biz. Let there be no mistake, R.A.W aka B-Boy 3000 aka 6Blocc has rocked more parties than most of us have had hot dinner's!
No man can test.
Watch the deck's. See the crowd. Look for the lighter's...yeah, Raoul is in control. He has been the anchorman for Pure Filth all year long. The go-to guy. Mr. Clutch....when you have to absolutely, positively get everybody skanking in the room...6Blocc is the man to call.
Watch ya Bassbin's..I'm tellin' ya!
THE PROFESSIONALS
(Pure Filth LA)
Coming off the Joker show the lad's are hyped! Heavy vibes!
Sam & Pablo are stackin' dub's and tweakin' speakers in preparation for this one, the last big blow out of the year...
The X-mas show has become the dubstep NYE of sorts...first year Skream, last year Flylo, a tradition has been started and the Professional's are lovin' it!
The lad's like nothing better than to gather the fam round a warm Bassbin and have a few Stella's and a boogie...
We'll bring the Bass and the Stella's, you bring the boogie and the smiles...is that a date?!
DADDY KEV
(Low End Theory, Alphapup, L.A)
The Big Daddy is on deck for this one and the timing couldn't be better!
You wanna talk about having a productive year...jeez!
Kev & the Low End Theory crew have gone from strength to strength this year, the club, the tour's, aswell as the artist's putting out dope stuff on Kev's groundbreaking imprint Alphapup, it's been non-stop.
You wanna catch a sneak peek at what's in store for 2010, then make sure u are upfront and center for this one...
Kev will mash up the speakers...
that I can guarantee!!!
DLX
(Brainfeeder, Pure Filth Audio, L.A)
With an e.p on Brainfeeder, 12" s on Smog and his first baby dropping, it's been all go for Drew this year!
DLX is the homey and thing's wouldn't be the same without our
resident soldier not in attendance.
Since the Higgin's, Drew had the belief and the work ethic and I think 2010 is gonna see that pay off.
Dealing in Subsonic frequencies...
DLX talk's to whale's n shit I swear!
MAGI

Finally off tour with MURS, the Magi is back!

This persistence and an intense need to create and integrate classic soul, house, drum and bass, broken-beat, dub-step, classic/indie rock and 80/90's jams earned J-Logic, both the admiration and respect of his peers.

About Mark Farina...
Shortly after Mark befriended Derrick Carter in 1988 at a record store in
Chicago, his passion for House music, and sharing it with the world,
exploded. Mark experimented with a deeper style, dropping De La Soul, disco
classics and other stuff that wasn¹t being played in the main rooms of
nightclubs. While exploring his love for the purist forms of House Music,
Mark developed his trademark style: Mushroom Jazz; acid jazz infused with
the West Coast¹s jazzy, organic productions along with urban beats. Fans
embraced Mark¹s downtempo style so much that he started a weekly Mushroom
Jazz club night in San Francisco with Patty Ryan. In 3 short years, the club
established a fanatical, cult-like following for Farina and the Mushroom
Jazz sound. When the doors closed, Farina continued the tradition by
releasing a series of Cds, ³Mushroom Jazz². Since then, Mark has been
traveling the globe performing 100s of shows, to over one million club
goers, a year. His House sets take fans on journeys to the jazzy side of
Chicago House mixed San Fran style. Some of these sets have been known to
last up to 8 hours. And sometimes you¹ll find Mark playing in two different
rooms at the same party, showcasing his range of rocking the big room sound
to the uber-chill. Farina¹s taste making skills continue to turn the heads
of crowds worldwide and consistently draw new fans to his style of
chunkyfunky rhythms and deep underground house. URB, MUZIK and BPM
Magazines have all had him on their Top DJ¹s In The World lists.
