The WhatWhat! - Bashment Mixxx

"WHAT WHAT! WHAT WHAT!"

GoldSweat horn blowers The WhatWhat! just dropped this in our inbox and Jesus Christ Superstar, I don't even remember dropping my panties and shaking my bare ass while ghost-riding my whip on Richmond Parkway until the cops flashed their lights and I ended up in the backseat with only my boots (don't you know I'm Loco?!?). Speaking of crazy, here's a few words from the Colonel MC about their Bashment sound:

[picture taken at GoldSweat October]

"Like nothing you've hurrrd before, The WhatWhat! pristinely mashes up bassline, dubstep, dnb and a bunch of other shit, slaps a psychotic MC on top of it and totally wrecks shop. Bashment style, like they said back in the day. This mix was recorded live in 2 takes and it comes about as close as you can get to catching the party on tape." ~ Truer words have never been spoken.

Included in the mix is original music from THREE GoldSweat artists: Sticky K, The What What, and our newest addition, SLOPPY (yeeee!). The WhatWhat! is DJ Big Sounds and the Colonel MC, two yay-area bassheads who are 5,000% GoldSweat Family (along with dudes like Sticky K, BUL!M!ATRON, and Captain Crunk). They play this Saturday, November 14th, with Sticky K, Breakdown (LA), and GoldSweat creative mastermind Belly Up down at the Triple Crown.

SEE YOU SATURDAY!

BUL!M!ATRON

BULiMiATRON is our GoldSweat LA first cousin that basically has been a staple in the LA rave scene for a big minute now. He was our featured guest DJ for GoldSweat August with DJ Enki from the Oakland Faders and MelissFX, his Synth City label mate and microphone siren. Recently, he's had his first three singles drop on Beatport, with a few more in the works as you read! He's also just recently been singed to CRUX label, which basically solidifies him as a major rager (but we already knew that). We're such big fans of his here in SF, we brought him back for our Temple SF Destiny Lounge showcase with The What What, Pance Party, and myself (Loco).

If you peep the myspace, you'll see that his calender is longer than the state of CA, flash is the ONLY reason he has the internet, and his music is great for keeping your roommate up late at night and dancing the night away in an LA warehouse. Here are some links to hear his music and don't forget to vote for his Major Lazer - Pon De Floor Remix, its a winner!

If you're in LA and can't find anything to do, look up BULiMiATRON and you're guaranteed to experience his love of Mike's Hard Lemonade and Law & Order. Damn, come to think of it, this guy sounds pretty lazy to me. No wonder he only functions between the hours of 11pm and 4am, exclusively behind the decks, and drunkenly at my kitchen table with two hot pockets and a fish tank.

GoldSweat will probably go into labor tonight, with Baltimore basically destroying everyone's Saturday night on the East Coast with a lineup stacked higher than IHOP in Angles Camp. BUL!M!ATRON & MelissFX continue to reak havok at every spot of their Synth City tour. Crunk joins them for the second time this month as GoldSweat.LA made a stop down in the dirty a few weeks back. Kosta is making his GoldSweat debeut but hardly a rookie. In fact, GoldSweat roots just got deeper than mangroves. Unruly, Top Billen, GoldSweat, BombtheBlock, Pixelbombs, PedxBmore, and the Red Square is gonna be the spot tonight no joke, hands down. Speaking of west coast, two GoldSweaters will be comfortably warn twice tonight in San Francisco as well.

First, Loco'll be competing in the last round of the prelim's for Energy 92.7's Ultimate DJ Competition. The Cafe (located at the corner of Castro & Market, above Chevron / Subway) will host the event from 8pm - 10pm, with their normal radio invasion following. Its free for the competition and it'll be a whopping good time, no?

Second, Pance Party is making their Lights Down Low debut over at Triple Crown with resident Sleazemore, Miss Toats from San Diego's Discodust blog, and Acid Girls from LA's iHeartComixs label.



Someone get me started on last nights Felix Cartal and Bird Peterson show... that shit was WICKED!!!

BOMB THE BLOCK!

¡Que Augusto!

Loud Loud Loud is probably the only real way to describe August.

In the 8th month's first week, GoldSweat was steppin' hard with Sticky K playing three times this week (Sacramento Wednesday and San Francisco Friday and Saturday), GoldSweat.LA family BUL!M!ATRON and Meliss FX kickin' off their Synth City Tour for our Master monthly, and featured members of Pance Party, Super Best Friends Club, Oakland Faders, and Yahtzee all making apperances in support. Big fat one's to Hacksaw Entertainment and RichDDT for hosting Jack Beats and Sticky K at Paradise Lounge. It was a pretty INCREDIBLE show, with the whole venue packed tight like IV Garb raves in the desert.

Sticky K - "Since I started DJing back in school, the set I played at Paradise Lounge was probably my best yet."

The next night was his Master Monthly @ the Triple Crown. Belly Up, the man behind the 2D pastel porn mayhem that is the GoldSweat image, loosed it up early with a sleeper filled midtempo banger set that netted a few happy hour folks into some couples grinding not seen since high school. What makes his set stand out is deffinetly the live interludes mirroring those Quickies on our website (btw, we got mad hits to the site and ever more on the first series of mixes posted here!) Next, Oakland Fader and Lower Hater, DJ Enki, followed in suit like a lawyer winning cases. Transfering between genre's, tempos, doubles, line, and phono solidified my personal goal to become the president of his fan club. Disco burners buttered up the bread for some true-electro veggies and then my favorite meal of the night, that boogie down baltimore club. Light enough to be full but gawd damn, you're coming back again and ordering the same thing. Sunday afternoon I ran into Enki at Lower Haters, exchanged props and spoke a bit about the night. When I mentioned a tracklist he responded:

DJ Enki - "Aww man (laughs)! You know I gotta keep SOME secrets!"

B-Boy rule #1, don't bite. Speaking of fangs, BUL!M!ATRON and Meliss FX graced the bass with jams too good for jelly. This month I was workin' the door, raising my hands, and singin' my ass off. BUL!M!ATRON has a new remix out, his calender just got east coasted with the beginning of his tour with Meliss FX, and Sunday night he's co-headling with Felix Cartel in LA (he'll also be back at the end of August for a rave at Kelly's Mission Rock and our Gold Standard throw down at Temple, stay tuned!). You can tell they're LA only in the fact that its really not a joke. Myspace your Monday morning with a little entertainment research and you'll find that these two are gonna boogie down some breaks at Bomb the Block in Baltimore (HUGE LINEUP!) and GoldSweat Atlanta with our man Captain Crunk! They got a line drive ahead of them... the length of the state straight to a gig, kinda still hungover, and running late cause Upper Playground is off the hook right now (seriously). I asked Meliss FX about their tour schedule, with SF being the first date and the first of the east coast spots starting Friday night...

Meliss FX - "Well, we're driving down to LA straight to a gig - hopefully we're not late (laughs cause she's the one draggin...). Then we got another gig Monday, Wednesday and we jump on a plane for New York Thursday. I'm really excited!"

We got GoldSweat August recorded and we'll be posting each DJ's set for download in a few weeks!

Push Things Forward

Hot damn we had a good weekend.

First of all, HUGE thanks to everyone that come to GoldSweat last Saturday at the Triple Crown. Dubsided artist, Sticky K made his San Francisco debut and kicked off an exciting future as Master Resident for our monthly party. What made this event uniquely special was the fact that many of the raging lunatics that showed up were coming from accross the state. As far south as LA, as far east as Sacramento valley, and everywhere in between. Back all that up with the entire supporting lineup coming from uniquely different but equally as dominant musical backgrounds, that's what we call one hell of a party. Mad love to The What What featuring Colonal MC (Compression D&B, SF) and Big Sounds (Hardcore Porn / Yahtzee Crew, SF), Eric Sharp from the mighty Rock It Science, and of course Sticky K. His Kissy Sell Out Radio One BBC Mix airs soon and the kid's been busier than a festival vendor.






















Next month we've invited DJ Enki from the Oakland Faders / The Citizens, East Bay CA. Enki just dropped his new Break It Down mix CD and this shit is crackin. I highly encourage you to visit his website and get caught up on your history lessons. You got just under a month before the big quiz, so come ready to boogie August 8th.























Also next month, GoldSweat.LA family BUL!M!ATRON, is kicking off his Synth City tour with us. He's got dates up and down California, in the dirty south with GoldSweat Atlanta, and with Bananas Baltimore Bomb the Block. Dude's so lined up his myspace page gives me anurisms (in the BEST way). Listen to some tracks on our myspace page or his.

This weekend GoldSweat will be in LA, ATL, SF, and Bmore all at the same time.

Podcasts of each DJ set from Saturday night coming sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon.
