back

ATOMIQUE @ Lit (downstairs) is on tonight!!! Last week, Lio and Gerald took the night over and did an awesome job keeping everyone dancing until the very end... this week, Eamon and i are back with loads of new music that you'll love. Also, i'm excited to announce that on august 10th, we'll be hosting the official DEVO afterparty at ATOMIQUE! To make the night even cooler, DEVA (chick-fronted DEVO cover band) will be playing downstairs before we take over.

Check out an interview with Saints and Lovers on The Deli. I take the photo credit...

A different direction for the band, download the new single from Black Rebel Motorcycle Club who will be on tour this fall with a stop by Irving Plaza on september 26th. New album Howl is out on august 23rd.

sweet troubled soul

Don't miss Morningwood's video for Jetsetter premiering tonight on MTV2's Subterranean.

This is something i completely forgot to mention, local band Unisex Salon was featured on the last episode of The Cut. In fact, they were one of the 2 bands that the contestants had to "re-style" (and that contestant won). I didn't see the show, but heard that Unisex were on during most of the show and also performed! That's really awesome for them.

Download "Erol Alkan's Mini Mix" [MP3]:
"This is the Mini Mix Erol recorded for Annie Mac's show back in April. Each week, Annie invites a guest to mix as many songs into 5 minutes as they can. Erol managed an impressive 17, cutting Sepultura with Aphex Twin along the way... "

Night Two of the Vicious anniversary at Southpaw was so fun and insane, again a big thanks to all who came and stayed until the end. It was a very long night, and we apologize for that. With that said, all the bands and DJs rock the night and we couldn't have been happier.

Have i ever mentioned how much i love The Alternative on VH1 Classics? Tonight's show just started with Ultravox, The Fall, Bauhaus and OMD all in a row (sounds like my sets!)... it's gonna be a good one.
