As the DC heads know, it's been raining hard pretty much all day. As I sat here typing on the couch, a distant lightning strike was followed a few seconds later by the crash of thunder... which, in turn, set off a chorus of car alarms.
I love rainy nights like this in the city. Feels all Blade Runner and shit.
Busy days. Work continues apace. My man Creighton is in the area to scout for work / housing in advance of his return to civilization from the Moose Infested North. We ran around on Thursday evening, checking out just about every bar between 14th & 18th Sts NW in the process. Fun times. It's going to be good to have him around; expect the return of our hyper eclectic tag team antics, late of The Ottobar. Tickler & Swann are dead; long live Kim Jong Thrill & Lenin's Boom.
I've been pulling records for Fatback over the last couple of days. The next one is this Friday night, April 25th. Should be a good one, come dance the night away with us.
Picked up records from Radiohead, PiL, Revolting Cocks, Chemical Brothers, Kool & The Gang, Fatback Band, Timmy Thomas, The Jackson Five, and Silver Connection yesterday. My sound... it becomes less defined.
I need to put a new mix out. Actually, a couple of new mixes wouldn't be the worst idea. A funk/soul set, a postpunk set, an electro/industrial set, some set that crosses all of these...
Watched This Is England the other night. It was good.
Meh. No energy for a link round up. Have a good night, y'all.
