Seconds away from the end of the beginning is surreal. This year, some of us got hit hard while others were tremendously fortunate. X means ten and so the new dance is crossing forearms. Sister cities, new friends, solid chumps and moving on.
GoldSweat the 'blogspot' may function sporadically, as something we haven't decided yet, but most of the content we will publish will be in our new apartment downtown. I kinda like the gentlemen/dunce look of this website, so some of us may live vicariously through its 'we absolutely don't give a fuck' persona. Plus, its white. BellyUp dead lifts without a backbrace and I play video games standing up with my mouth closed.
All the links should still be live, so if you're using it as a reference map into our clothes, contact us. We like talking! Otherwise, enjoy everything here and at our penthouse.
Michael Harms aka Konnect is a GoldSweat board member, Bass-meant-level producer in all things heavy, and seasoned club kid from The Old Bay (Baltimore). Having single-handedly started every riot that has ensued at GoldSweat events, you can say he's got a price on his head. Good thing for us, our profit doubles when he makes his live debut sharing the decks with Master killer, Sticky K and Pance Party at our GoldSweat Sessions (Vol.2) at Infatuation. SF Club culture may be slowly sucking the life out of the mid-week club kid, but GoldSweat knows Vessel has one of the most major sound systems in the bay and we had to test it. We sent in Konnect to push it to twelve and the cold-bastard delivered. I don't care who you are, this tracklisting is so major I almost don't want to post it. But lurkers, haters, exes, and bassbins make us famous... For those of you that missed it, we've got more Old Bay Seasoning to powder that ass in Juicy bass this Saturday at our Second Saturday, Triple Crown. Be there or be a shape, get it?

Vessel brings us back full force to start winter on the bay. Last time Udachi and Breakdown teamed up with Sticky to shake the leaves off that tree. This time, Konnect and PanceParty join the fight and we're looking to do some landscaping, feel me? Two-for-one's ringside. FreeBass. Free w/rsvp (direct link)! DVAS. Join Super Best Friends Club. Sticky K. Konnect. Pance Party. Loco. Fucking Philthy. Scarlet. Facebook Party Page GoldSweat Sessions (Vol.2) Hosted By: Philthy Rodriguez (SuperBestFriendsClub) & Scarlet (DVAS). Wednesday, December 2nd 2009. San Francisco, CA USA.
This mix is more or less a compilation of a bunch of 'sounds' I'm feeling at the moment... ranging from juke-dub, dub-step, bmore slayers & Diva anthems, GoldSweat bangers, and some head-nug bullshit. I guess you can say its kinda weird and un-orthodox, but sometimes you gotta get Loco to get it. The entire mix was created in one take using Serato + Mixer + 1 Turntable (my internal mode is on fire). I'll be playing on December 2nd with Sticky K, Pance Party, and Konnect at Infatuation's GoldSweat Sessions and then again at our 2nd Saturday at Triple Crown (December 12th).
TONIGHT 10/30: GOLDSWEAT GOES ZOMBIE - TEMPLE SF (free w/rsvp to eric@rockitsciencesf.com). Konnect makes his GoldSweat sound debut, BellyUp showcases his zombie slayer skills, and Loco DJ's drunk with a mask on.
GoldSweat head honcho's Konnect, BellyUp, and JustLoco will be holding it down in the Destiny Lounge THIS Friday at TempleSF. Last we hosted, the white room went technicolor, headliners got shitfaced, we blew out equipment, and woke up the next morning at my kitchen table surrounded by Mike's Hard Lemonaide and half-eaten hot pockets. Its also the night before Halloween official, so beta run those costumes and get in free with rsvp to: ericsharp@rockitsciencesf.com
Belly Up is about to jump on a plane to Prague in less than 24 hours and he's bringing his cold. Hopefully he's overdosed on airborn for the multi-hour plane ride across the world, otherwise we might see him as the next featured documentary on Current TV. Regardless, I'd like to take this opportunity to then, welcome Mike Konnect to the GoldSweat standard. Mike crumbs from the old bay aka Baltimore proper. Having moved to the west coast some 4 years ago after growing up in the club scene during the historic mid-atlantic rave era. I'm not even going to link you on that one, its THAT significant. Now a frequent lurker of back doors down in the lower haight, GoldSweat is happy to have him on our side. He don't give change to hobo's and hates his friends. Shit... maybe he should just work for us instead of hang out with us... whatever. TONIGHT! HAIGHT STREET FAIR COME DOWN EVENT! HAPPY BIRTHDAY TEENY BUBBLES! WELCOME B.RICH TO SAN FRANCISCO! PALMS OUT SOUNDS! PARTY LIKE US! ELI GLAD! HAPPY MEAL! HARDCORE PORN! LOCO! GOLDSWEAT! ICE CREAM! BLAH! UNDERGROUND SF!
