Its FRIDAY! You kids are done school! Im going to bail on my old man job early and pretend like I am too! woooooooooooooooo! party!! im going to hurt tomorrow.. fuck it!
A-Trak is one of my favorite DJs for a so many reasons. He’s Canadian. He wears fedoras like, really well. He’s been the best scratch DJ in the world since he was 15. I’m not even exaggerating at all. You have to see it, I don’t know how he does it! It just sits up there super chill and not douchy at all.
Look at this guy.
He’s 1/2 of Duck Sauce. He runs the coolest record label, Fools Gold, which has signed the coolest artist.. Danny Brown, Chromeo, Tommy Trash, Flosstradamus, Kavinsky, just to name a few. He also runs this super weird and awesome YouTube channel with Diplo and Skrillex, POTATOwillEATyou.
Most importantly though, I saw him at a my first music festival in 2010. Back when I had no idea what kind of music I liked or what artists were my favorite.. I was just on an adventure. Then I stumbled into the dance tent and witnessed Trizzy scratching Robot Rock by Daft Punk. This. This is what its all about.
I cant WAIT to see him blow the roof off Celebrities tonight!! Get your tickets right hurr
Dillon Francis figured out the key to the internet: Cats and tacos. His rise in popularity has everything to do with this and his DJ awareness campaign alone and nothing to do with his music production abilities or DJ skills whatsoever.
Here is a couple remixes he did recently:
Clearly piggy backing off the more talented Passion Pit and Justin Timberlake, am I right?
Im going to his show on friday for the tacos and kittens he promises on twitter. I probably wont have any fun.
Oh, mine? My first time? The first time I ever heard a house album. Well, her name was Blossom by Agoria. I met her during my time at a volunteer radio station. After my show was done I’d stay late at the back digging through crates. I must admit, I wasn’t sure if we were right for each other. She was looking for a relationship and I (being young and stupid at the time) was sucked into a macho-bullshit-spread-my-seed-screw-anything-that-walks mindset. She told me to Think Different. I told my buddies about the Spanish Girl I met. Later, it turned out that she was french when I actually listened. We had regular Kofea together even if I wasn’t getting into her pants. And -boom- before I knew it, Stereolove. You know? Real, Organic affection. I still remember 2Thousand3. She showed me a new world. She was Presque Un Ange. I actually wrote a Haiku. She was Worth It.
