Cap Free, Customer Appreciation

For those of you who think CZ is far too crazy, sketchy, and keeps some pretty odd hours,  I give you: The After-After-Hours.  Just when you thought shit couldn't get any crazier.  Leave it to my band of merry men to uncover another hole in the wall just a stones throw away.  So obviously we went, I mean it is the Holidays after all.

The place was pretty clean, brand new, with a no ball caps policy that i am NOT a big fan of.  But in spite of the abrasive security, and whack policies.... the music was pretty damn sweet.  So sweet that we literally shazammed every single song for an hour.  Good thing we were there to populate the dancefloor too. No, no...you're welcome.  All this on Comfort Zone "customer appreciation night"- No cover and free CZ swag to every customer. now THATS customer service!

Wham! Bam! thank you Santa.

before I get all snuggled into bed to wait for Santa... I just remembered I had meant to post this song at some point over the Holidays.  I can think of no better time than now!  Proving even Christmas songs can get a little funky sometimes.

Merry Christmas everyone! Wherever you're hearing this I hope its a Happy Holiday.

whats Nu is New again

I know Nu-Disco was a very 2011-12 thing but in my books Disco never died, so why should this Nu variety?  I've only just recently heard this pretty awesome new album from DJ Dan.  Somehow I've managed to have never seen him live, yet... go figure.  Well a few weeks ago I heard this one drop and I am not ashamed to admit I was twirling up a storm.  And since there are few things as gay as Christmas....lets celebrate the Holigays with a little soulful disco vocal. YES!

DJ Dan - Out Of Nowhere (Original Mix)

and in keeping with the vocals and harmonies: Maceo Plex.  This man cannot do anything wrong it seems.  When you find someone who produces so many different styles of FANTASTIC  music.. latch on. Latch on and don't ever let go.  If I'm not mistaken Elum Audio is his own imprint, and a collaboration with a few others... pretty dope stuff.  I wonder is Jon is related to Rui?

'tis the season

This past year has flown by so damn fast.  It seems like only yesterday I was getting ready for my knee surgery.   This past weekend was the now annual tradition at CZ of "Just Like The Old Days".  A day once a year when they bring back some of the regular DJs from years ago which also brings out lots of the old crew of patrons too.  I wasn't a regular by any stretch back then, but getting to hear Paranoid Jack and El Duran play with Deko-ze & Addy was a pretty fantastic treat.  An astoundingly appreciative and fun crowd, with loads of classic tunes.  Sounds a bit like nostalgia overload but it isn't.  Anyhoo, its a busy time of year for everyone, so take a minute and enjoy some tunes. Heres a lil sample of the tunes from the classics weekend, but don't worry.. Deko-ze's set will likely be posted on SoundCloud so when it is I'll put a link up here too in case you don't follow him... which you should.

Roots and Wings - Come Over To My Place

And this little nugget that I've been listening to a lot lately.  I don't know about y'all but when I was a kid my mom had these old disco records called "STARS ON 45" and it was basically a Bad Boy Bill style disco mashup with every pop song from that year blended into one fabulous record.  Right up there with Kenny & Dolly's Chirstmas record as one of my favourite of my mom's. This reminds me of that... in name only.
