Official Designer Drugs + JOTS + Jesse Jamz/Black Matter Video!
What better way to start off 2011? If you weren’t there you missed out on one of those parties that just got out of hand! That’s a good thing of course!
Thanks again for coming out and we’ll be sure to catch you at our next show, which is actually NEXT WEEK with Toronto’s DJ Barletta! His last show here was a complete rager so you don’t want to miss out, especially when tickets are only $10! Click the poster for full details!
DESIGNER DRUGS + JOKERS OF THE SCENE + JESSE JAMZ!
Friday January 14th, 2011, at the Starlite Room 10030 - 102 St.
The title should really read most underrated of SXSW 2010! My favorite DJ from last year’s festival and near-favorite this year is Fool’s Gold’s Treasure Fingers. Despite a lack of original productions in the last year, a combination of solid DJ skills plus superb (!!) track selection kept the crowd at Austin’s Beauty Bar grooving non-stop until his set was over.
There’s nothing more refreshing than groovin’ to the finest nu-disco cuts after getting deep with some heavy electro at the stage next door. If you’re not familiar with Treasure Fingers (this post is for all the kids who are just getting into the scene), definitely check out the breakthrough track Cross The Dancefloor which dominated 2008, complete with huge remixes from Lifelike, Curses, and Laidback Luke (which I still play out today) plus a slew of unofficial remixes, including this one by Designer Drugs:
Now for the insider info - look out for a new EP from the man himself, slated for release this May on Fool’s Gold!
