I started collecting records around '98 when my brother brought home some mismatched turntables with the twisty pitches and belt drives. At first it was underground hiphop singles, then expanded to classic funk and then to wherever my digging and somewhat off-beat taste took me...
Now I'm here with you. Playing funk, breakbeats, hiphop, disco, classic electro, house and whutnot in Austin! Hit me up if you want me to play somewhere!
Ho! Ho! Ho! We thought we'd contribute to the holiday spirit by sharing a new song which we hope functions as an antidote to the madness of consumption that seems to have since long overshadowed the birth of love! It's an alternative Christmas carol & we'd love it if you check it out! May this Holiday season be filled with Kindness! All true blessings upon you & your loved ones, light, mercy & compassion for all!
On November 7, 2009: HotDish (1st Saturdays @ BLACK) presents "A LOCAL’S GUIDE TO TRAIN WRECKIN’ (_NOT)" featuring Bryan Gerrard (Celebrity), Soulfeather (Caterpillar), Nate Laurence (Bunch-o-labels / BLACK) and J. Matthews (Hot-N-spicy / BLACK).
We know you love it local – naughty famished monkeys! So, we’re using all locally grown ingredients this time. It’s a neighborhood cookout in November! Gluttony will be strictly enforced (but wear what you want)!
Bryan Gerrard: Um…do we need to write an intro Twin Cities househeads? What’s cool though…ready for this…we’re forcing him to resurrect the “deep” from his many days in the VIP; remember…when the place bumped and we all had tears in our eyes because the music actually did move us? Yep…that!
Introducing DJ Soulfeather to the VIP: If you don’t know him yet, he’s got the funkiest collection of tracks you’ve ever heard. The B-boys/girls in town have started to collect in a small cipher in front of him every Saturday at the Caterpillar Lounge where he is a resident – merely because he is…well…the “freshest kid.” We met him during gigs in Duluth at the Red Star and dragged his ass to the cities with us!
And…you’ll get a true taste of HotDish residents this time: Nate Laurence and J. Matthews – giving it to you unnaturally dope for the middle half of the night.
TOO MUCH LOVE freaky (Crisco Twister) lovers: REMEMBER that when you enter the side door, you get free crossover to TML. Double your pleasure, double your fun! You're invited. We'd love to see you in the VIP!
Four hours - 450 fahrenheit - First Ave - and you've got yourself one flavorsome hotdish! THIS SATURDAY (Oct 3), Hotdish serves up Romano Arcaini (from Latenight Society) and our hometown hero Jeff Kash (back from Florida for a one-time engagement)!
Maybe you know it and maybe you don't but Mr. Acraini (Orlando, FL) has been satisfying the house music meat-plate for many years with a discog that makes your mama's recipe book look brand new. He's the man behind "Tight Recordings" and hugely popular "Latenight Society," so we're wearing extra thick oven-mitts this time. With releases on massive house labels such as Detour, Amenti, Tango, Nordic Trax, Phobic, Eight-Tracks, and Control (to name but a few) it's no doubt we're excited to have him play his Minneapolis debut!
