Where the hell did summer go?
Posted on Oct 7, 2009
Well the summer of 09 will definitely be a summer for me to remember. Weekend after weekend of some of the biggest gigs Ive ever had, seriously I was mad spoiled! I had the Honor of directly following The Commercial Hippies at Astral harvest and Amon Tobin at Motion Notion. I spent a few weeks on the road to the coast playing for so many of my favorite peeps at the Uprising Media Festival and the Diversity Festival. A big highlight was my 10 to midnight time slot Saturday night at Shamabhala in the Labyrinth.... tough to imagine a gig getting much for sweet that that! I also had the pleasure being hired for some sweet sound gigs as well, hearing acts like Vibesquad and Tipper on your own sound system makes for a good day!
Things for the winter are starting to come together. Our monthly journey's event is shifting a bit. We are now calling the monthly gathering Evolve[-]d. Evolve[-]d will be a straight up night of killer diverse electronica ranging from world beat, dub, idm and tribal. Evolve[-]d will have unique guest performances each month. This month will feature a three piece live band with live percussion, didgeridoo and live PA electronics. Journey's as you knew it last year will still continue, but we are thinking once every second month and will probably happen on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon.
Some teasers for ya..... The next installment of Bohemia is in the works, artists are confirmed and a venue is set, look for a december date to be announced soon. And the crazy kids at Area709 are again cooking up something special for late November, keep checking in for more details..... Ill give you a hint..... think desert, think trance and think super psychedelic.
Keep groovin kids!
