Due to a spontaneous and drug-induced act of benevolence, we have decided to make tonight’s show donation-only. Meaning that if you show up, it would be cool if you can give a few bucks so Fat Tony doesn’t enact retribution by ruining my burgeoning snack distribution business. It’s hard out here for a pretzel peddler.… Continue reading »
I was all set to do one of those sarcastic self-aggrandizing spiels where I use a ton of alliteration and make esoteric references to farm animals in the hopes of getting you to come to the Echoplex tonight. On second thought, I may have just done that. Thankfully, the the erudite Eagle has penned a… Continue reading »
Forgive me if the next 10 days descends into a flurry of self-promotional B.S. I will try to be tasteful. But obvious bias aside, I’m proud to be putting this site’s name on a pair of upcoming shows. The first goes down next Tuesday, February 21. Killer Mike. Busdriver. Nocando. Open Mike Eagle. At the… Continue reading »

Unless you live in Los Angeles, you may not know the name Danny Holloway. And even if you’re a resident, you still might be benighted towards the Dublab selector and crate-digger extraordinaire, whose respect runs abyssal within the DJ world. Holloway is a throwback to the days when DJ’s discovered and broke obscure gems through… Continue reading »

The Echo, for the Hosts that profess infinitum. There is only one excuse not to go to this — that you’re going to Portishead at the Shrine. And even then, Portishead play on Wednesday night too. So there are no excuses. Now that that’s settled. Download: MP3: Shabazz Palaces-”Swerve…The Reaping of All That is Worthwhile… Continue reading »

Thankfully, the highly gifted Jon Casey (the filmmaker behind Quik Fest ’11) has captured footage of last Thursday’s funkfest at Freak… Continue reading »
