Maceo Plex: Life Index LP
The folks over at Crosstown Rebels will be releasing their twelfth full-length album at the end of the month, this time featuring American ex-pat house producer Maceo Plex. Crosstown prides itself on featuring "creative young people with something new to say", and with the one Damian Lazarus at the helm, seems to release a consistent stream of great music.
If Maceo's single "Vibe Your Love" is any indication, this album should be no exception. Pick it up at record stores January 31st.
Exclusive Mix: ForQuarters live in Baltimore
Guest Mix: ForQuarters Collective
Recorded: December 4th, 2010 - Direct Download (MP3)
Don't miss ForQuarters tonight at the legendary Eighteenth Street Lounge in Washington, DC!
Weekend Picks – Fall Invasion Edition
It's official. Summer is over and fall is upon us. Put away your sun dresses. Time to switch to bourbon.
Out of the gate, fall 2010 is coming guns blazing, and looks to possibly be one of the BEST SEASONS EVER! We've got music festivals, record fairs, soulful, disco, and german tech house pioneers, all crammed into the 1st weekend of this season of color.
This is also the fourth edition of weekend picks, and so we wanted to say a little something about this post. It should be noted that this is not an advertisement for anyone. This is just an honest list of events that we think you'll enjoy if you are in the DC/Baltimore area, and you like excellent music, people, and/or things. If you don't see your event on the list, we probably don't know about it, so LET US KNOW! If it seems like something cool, not only will we add it, but we'll probably show up to check it out too!
Alright, so on to the good stuff...
Weekend Picks
Decisions, decisions. Great music going on this Saturday! ForQuarters brings their regular brand of booty-shaking house to Red Maple, SEE-I lights it up at Mosaic Lounge with some rasta flavor, and H Street holds their annual street festival in DC. If it were us, which it is, we would check out all three! Come down to DC during the day for some great music, and keep it rolling in Baltimore for the evening with these two great shows. Rest up on Sunday with bloody mary's at your favorite brunch spot. (We suggest Mama's on the Half-Shell in Baltimore or Kramerbooks and Afterwords in DC) Weekend, set and match. Reset for Monday.
Weekend Picks – Labor Day Edition
Labor day for many signifies the end of Summer, so we suggest treating this three-day weekend as your last hurrah before the scarfs come out of the closet. This means wearing as little as possible, getting plenty of pool-side sun, consuming many cold beverages, and of course dancing your ass off.
If you are in the DC/Baltimore area, a few of our friends are ready to help you check that last one off your list!
