I can assure you, little to no people will care about this, and yet here we are. I've DJed and produced music under the name Sick Face for many years, but tonight I will be putting that moniker to rest, as well as bow out of the 'DJ game' for a good while. I'll be performing my final DJ set at the monthly disco/boogie/dance music party Grow Up, which kicks off tonight at Madrone around 9 p.m, along with Jonas Reinhardt DJs, Chungtech, Hotthobo, and Fenstar. It's totally free, so you should come and get drunk and dance with other drunk people.
As sort of a last hurrah, I put together and recorded this final DJ set to share with folks the kind of stuff I'll be playing tonight. It's a lot of new-ish disco and older house tunes, plus some unreleased/previously unheard stuff. Basically, stuff no one that reads this blog will like. I stuck the player for that under this text, along with the tracklist. Enjoy!
Gwop Gang of Cleveland rapping about 4Loko obviously. Jane maybe interested in a sponsorship deal if 4loko is kicking dollars around. It's kind of sad that the legacy of St Ides has been reduced to 4loko and Icing, although that strawberry kiwi shit sucked, yeah I rocked it, I was 15 fuck it and it was cheaper than Schlitz.
Reader Jamie sends this our way and also notes “Sorry, no bikes.”
NO BIKES. WTF.
Anyways, it's pretty cool but the end of the video is kind of whack. Maybe I just didn't get it but I had that feeling in my stomach that I get when I watch someone do something really awkward or embarrassing and I feel awful for them. Kind of like the feeling you probably get reading this blog.
I was strolling around Dolores Park yesterday and ran into these guys rapping about Ross and screaming for someone to give them a beer. Figured that was a good time to figure out what's their story. They're Abraham Linkin and sure to be the next big thing in Bay Area meme-music.
Weezer reminds us that it DOES matter if you win or lose. BEAT ENGLAND! Lets do this for the Brits taxing our forefathers, British Petroleum spilling oil onto our shores, and for Radiohead snubbing Miley Cyrus last year.
All the cool kids will be at AT&T Park tomorrow at 11:30am for the USA vs England game, Fun Cheap SF has the details.
If you like angry rap music and delivery with hella style all with a complete disregard for any kind of mixing you should check this shit I made for the homies at Werdemup.com It's heavy on the east bay/southern rap styles with plenty of angry violence and threats to cops, a little bit of metal at the end just for the fuck of it, polished off with random static driven defunct NY rap that I absolutely love
A friend introduced me the cultural embarrassment LMFAO this weekend. After about 90 seconds into their video “Shots,” I was pretty sure we were not actually friends anymore:
Bro: gonna listen to LMFAO now and surf Maxim.com
Kevin J. Montgomery: LMFAO?
Bro: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XNtTEibFvlQ
Kevin J. Montgomery: these guys are fucking hipster tools
Bro: NO THEY AREN'T
Bro: they're a product of the commodification of the hipster aesthetic
Bro: this is frat music
Bro: surprised you've never heard of them
Kevin J. Montgomery: so much product placement
Kevin J. Montgomery: how are they grammy nominated
Kevin J. Montgomery: this is a joke. I can't take this anymore. where's my gun? my computer needs to die
Anyways, two days later, I see this picture of some Neon Princess on ChinaShop Mag. and I can't stop thinking about the tools of LMFAO. Is L.A. just full of electro-hipster that dropped too much e in high school?
