Selam and Chuffed recently got some love from the Washington Post: "Selam Is Getting Into the Groove."

Neil Payne, formerly of the house-rocking FunkDC crew, joined Pete Welsch, once a resident at Baltimore's Sonar nightclub, and Eighteenth Street Lounge alumna Christine Moritz for Chuffed, which melds funk and down-tempo with Deee-Lite and old-school rap... outfits and expensive drinks were secondary to the joy of dancing to an eclectic mix of tunes that could wind up anywhere by the end of a set. The real proof, though, is that the crowd on the dance floor always beats the crowd gathered around the bar.
