This past weekend i was very busy as i had two back to back gigs at Do Not Sit. On Friday I went b2b with Surreal Flight in the warm up for another favorite duo of mine, Gorje Hewek & Izhevski. It was a beautiful journey and we had a packed dancefloor. The Russian duo got on right after and took the crowd to another level. The vibe in the club was euphoric. They were playing their signature sound and it was amazing! One of the most impressive acts to come in and out of Do Not Sit.
The following day I got up and hit the beach with my wife. It was a beautiful day and great way to get recharged for round 2. Saturday was the Magician on Duty & Friends showcase where I played alongside Ramiro Rossitti, RC and the man himself, Magician on Duty. I got on around midnight right after Magician on Duty and the dancefloor was packed. Everybody in the room was dancing and it was great to get on to a packed dancefloor. I was able to play some songs i havent played in a while and others that ive been itching to play. It was a great time and everybody in the room was feeling what i was playing. The vibe was awesome and both Ramiro and RC played great sets after me. Finally, Sunday was a day meant for recovery and a soft celebration. The wife and I went to the beach for a few hours and spent the day together doing other stuff in celebration of our 1 year wedding anniversary which is actually today. Next gig is July 8th as I make my way to West Palm Beach to play at the Vandal Warehouse. Stay tuned for more info. Happy Sunday and Fathers Day to all the Fathers and Mothers out there! This weekend was crazy...
Started off on Friday with having my friend Ray over for dinner and drinks at my place. My wife prepared a very delicious Curry Chicken and Ray came over with Modelo; perfect way to start an evening. Once we were ready, we headed off to Do Not Sit for my set. I started off nice and groovy, and ended the set a bit more on the tribal side. There was a nice crowd when i was playing, and they were loving what i was playing. Everyone had smiles on their faces and all the bodies in the building were moving. Its a great feeling when the vibe is like that. Then, Surreal Flight came on and killed it as usual. These guys never fail, and push me to always do better. They picked up where i left them (nice and tribal), and took us into a journey before Sandrino got on. Sandrino got on at about 2am to nice crowd and an amazing vibe. I must say that Sandrino was amazing! Easily one of the best sets I have ever witnessed at Do Not Sit. I was not sure what to expect from him. I knew he was a great producer and DJ from everything that I have heard on Soundcloud, but wow this guy is next level. It is hard to come across artists that are both great at producing and great at DJ-ing. Sandrino is part of the duo Frankey & Sandrino and have releases on Innervisions and other great labels. Hearing him live was mind-blowing. Another great thing about him was his persona. Sandrino is a really great guy and it reflects in his music. This night left me inspired to produce more and do more and be a better version of myself. Looking forward to his return. The following day we had some friends over and headed over to the beach. Although there did not seem to be alot of Sun or even alot of heat, everyone got some color. We headed back home and bought some beers, whiskey, and Baileys on the way. Once home, my wife prepared some amazing Irish coffees for us and a platter with brie cheese and crackers. This hit the spot. We continued the rest of the night outside in the patio having some beers and having a great time. Times like these with friends is awesome. Now I am here at home, resting and getting ready for the week that is to come. Next weekend you can catch me at Do Not Sit both Friday and Saturday! Stay tuned for more info... :) I had another weekend off and I'm ready to take on the next few weeks head on! The last week i was a bit ill and was not feeling great, but after a week off and some good rest I'm feeling great again. I was able to get some new tracks this weekend as well as spend time with my family. I spent the weekend babysitting my niece and nephew and hanging out with my wife. It was a really great time and much needed. I was also able to sneak in a few new downloads ;) in order to prepare for the upcoming weeks. This weekend coming up i have the pleasure and honor to open up for the Do Not Sit on the Furniture debut of Sandrino from Frankey & Sandrino! These guys are huge with releases on Innervisions and other big labels, so I'm really looking forward to this event. I will spend all week preparing for this so expect to hear something really special this weekend! Stay tuned for more updates about this week...

So this past weekend was filled with amazing music. On Friday I had the pleasure to kick things and set the mood for a night with our good friend Maga. Surreal Flight took over after and it was the cherry on top for a perfect warm-up for Maga. Maga was amazing as usual and took us into the early hours of the morning.
The following day we had Nico Stojan as our guest. Behrouz was supposed to play as well but his flight to Miami got cancelled. No worries, as Nico blew our minds! He never ceases to amaze me with not only his song selections but his technical ability on the turntables. We are so lucky in Miami to be able to see such class acts in an intimate room like Do Not Sit on the Furniture! Its an awesome feeling to be part of something so special. Addition to that I had some photos taken(more coming soon) and quality time with the wife. Until next time... |
