Photobucket
It’s the top of August and we’ve got some loveliness in the works, kicking off this Thursday.

Our very special live guest is QUINCY MCCRARY.
www.myspace.com/qemistrysoul
Quincy, a native to Los Angeles, is in such high demand, working with other artists (Michael Jackson, George Duke, Sheila E, Patrice Rushen, Little Richard, Dolly Pardon, Harry Belafonte, John Williams, Marvin Hamlish, The Manhattan Transfer, Rose Stone, Quetzal) that he rarely does his own show. But when he does….WOW! He truly graces the stage, reminiscent of a young Stevie Wonder with the keys to please and a voice like butter on your breakfast toast. Check him out with full band @ StereoLove!

Also joining us are the 5 SIGNS dj crew (Quality Collective) throwing in some of their special sauce in the Stereo Lounge

PLUS our resident DJ’s with two rooms of stellar sounds lightin’ up the atmosphere on the 1′s & 2′s like fireflies in the southern sky:

DJ A-SKI (Unique 74)
DJ Lotuspetal (Unique 74)
The Plush One

we’re also celebrating the fly LEO babies + the b’day of DEE JAY MIKECHECK
w/ an opening Dj set

All of this for NO COVER
so there’s NO EXCUSE for not coming!

Mark Your Calenders for April 24th @ SOUL SESSIONS.. The Big Showdown with DJ Center and myself goes down! Yes… we are going to act a fool, you know the drill -)


Thinking about Marvin..

On this very day, the world was robbed of a great man who within his own contradictions and conflicts was able to teach us all how to love and to live unconditionally. This very man who came in after the reign of Sam Cooke /Jackie Wilson would later pave the way for the Stevie Wonders/Donny Hathaways plus countless others. One of the many things I admired about Mr. Gaye was that he did not settle for the status quo, he wasn’t afraid to push the envelope and raise the stakes. He celebrated the love, the pain, the disdain and the triumph through his music while effortlessly raising the bar.

Ironically, I had just purchased the “Live in Belgium” DVD a few days ago and I even did a mini tribute in my Dj set this past Sunday.

We Love You Marvin Gaye.

Ps: Bugsy Wilcox, Frank Blair and Gordon Banks where are you!? (a huge bravo!)


Dj A-Ski tracks featured on Push The Fader Radio (Giant Step Jukebox)

A massive shout out to Dj Center, Push The Fader and Giant Step Radio for highlighting one of my tracks from my upcoming release (which should be dropping very soon, wrapping everything up as we speak). Check out the show it features many more great artists throughout and much more hotness!

In the words of Kool Moe Dee: “Turn It Up”!

Peace, Love and Music,
DJ A-Ski | Unique74



Features new & timeless music from:

BiD, Agape feat.
Nadia Harris, Waajeed, Zaki Ibrahim,
Erykah Badu, Curtis Mayfield, Boozoo Bajou, Vanessa Da Mata,

Tighten Up presents..ERIK RICO | LA

March 18th 2009

Tighten Up
Presents:

A Live PA Set By:
Erik Rico (Lifenotes Music)

Born into a family of creative artists, Erik began his professional career 10 years ago as a self contained artist/producer on Sony’s Columbia Records after being discovered by American Idol’s Randy Jackson, then V.P. of Columbia Records. Prior to Jackson’s introduction to Erik, he had only briefly been producing, writing and arranging for independent hip hop and soul acts on the east coast. However, after only two years of being immersed in the confinements of corporate music, Erik felt his creativity could be better expressed elsewhere. He broke his contract with Sony, returned east and then to Europe in search of musical freedom.

Eventually, Erik returned to California in pursuit of his musical career as an independent producer/artist where he was tapped to do his first major label production, coupled with various multimedia projects encompassing network and TV shows, feature films for the Showtime network, PBS as well as a two year stint as sound designer for famed photographer David LaChapelle and currently with Producit Inc. whose clients include: All major TV & Film networks, international advertising agencies, private events and celebrity clients such as Elton John, Gene Simmons, Mariah Carey and Jessica Alba.

Opening DJ Set By:
Joel Matthew (Lifenotes Music)

With Residents:
Yosaku (Arision/GAMM) + Chaka (Selecao)

Serving Up: Soulful, Jazzy, Latin/Brazilian, House/Broken/Afro Beats
