Remember when I mentioned that some of the Chicago Disco Massive were launching a new disco-centric party in the new year? I rarely post on specific events, but today they unveiled their first guest as the one and only Mike Simonetti (of Italians Do It Better) and that’s one hell of a kickoff that’s left […]

I said I was going to have an original mixtape for you all this week, but real life beckoned and I ran short on time. Blah, blah, blah. Next week, I promise. Luckily our pal AutoRock saved the day, gracing my inbox with a great mix titled FONK. AutoRock put together FONK in honor of […]

Yes, you’re correct, it’s not morning, but I’ve had a crazy busy day, so deal with it. I’ve decided it’s silly of us to keep featuring these weekly mixtapes and never share any of our own. Next week you’ll be in for a treat as I take the helm and kick off what will be […]

Over 30 of their signature mashups are jam-packed into a little over an hour and I’m happy to report it includes my recent favorite, DJ […]

This week I’m excited to share the debut mix from the newly formed Chicago DJ, production and design collective, Only Children. Only Children are Bald E. (Chris Baronner), Dinoscopy (Dino Balocchi), Mister Wolf (Jesse Hozeny) and grayarea (Mcrae Reed). I stopped by their Halloween-themed mixtape release party last Thursday night and now I’m really excited […]

The boys of Minneapolis have got it going on. While I’ve yet to travel there myself, I’ve long been observing from afar a city that touts a unique merging of the design scene with nightlife. Flyers are exceptionally executed, and parties are not only curated, but branded. There’s quite a few people doing this well […]
