This Tuesday, the 30th of September, Andrea and myself will be preforming with the one and only Computer Club here in Tallahassee. This is a special show for us as it is also our fellow jam companion DJ Raid's birthday as well, and he was the one that wished to have CC travel all this way.
So in honor of this occasion, we are posting an official shit-ton of Computer Club tracks to get folks in the know and mood... Hope you enjoy!!
To show our excitement and support, we are going to post a bunch of Designer Drugs tracks to get you more psyched as well as pumped for these shows. First is the most recent DD remix to emerge, besides a Mariah Carey mix for a recent contest, and the rest favorites you have known for a while...
I just had to post these tracks I found today... They are too good not to share... I am so going to throw them into my set tonight, I'll tell you how they fair tomorrow.
This first one, I discovered when I was asked by my boss to find the "Olympic Anthem" to use in our office's version of the Olympics... Yes, I work in one of those wacky offices...
This gem I discovered from our new friend over at UhOhDisco.com. Go check out that shit when you get the chance, Stephen of Uh Oh Disco! loves this dance shit just as much as we at Penned Madness do. And if you love dance music, then you'll love Stephen - see how that works?
And finally, some tracks from DLake's lastest EP; the sequel to his hit mixtape "Bmore Of a Hipster Vol. 1" comes "Bmore Of a Hipster Vol. 2" Catchy ain't it...Oh it is. Cop yourself one at Turntable Lab and such.
So some new things are coming to Tallahassee and I just wanted to keep you good people abreast to these trends. Just a little back story - Andrea Grant, Steve Lurkel, and myself, DJ Mannes, have been doing the DJ Duo thing around Tallahassee for quite some time now, going way back to October 2007 when we first teamed up for a party at our good friend Dan Morales' house. We didn't have any prior practice together but with very similar styles and tastes, we quickly blended (and quite nicely) into this DJ Dance Party unit. We then began playing numerous parties and small events together throughout town which leads us to the present - where we were recently offered a weekly spot as residents over a brand new dance night at a popular spot on the city drag. So without further ado, I would like to introduce to you....
Big Daddy's in Tallahassee is most famously known as one of the number #1 party bars in the nation as rated by Playboy magazine 2 years ago. A Tallahassee staple, Big Daddy's throws a number of different themed weekly events, most successful being the 80's/Indie dance night ever Monday night where they manage to cram 100+ into this hole in the wall. Normally closed on Tuesday nights, the owner Rob has given us a chance to test our mettle and throw our very own party. Our music, our rules, our special guests, it's everything one could hope for for a weekly gig.
To conclude this post, here is a track the was suggested to us by our very dear friend and fellow Tallahassee DJ, Mark Starr. This will be opening the night off, just you wait...
