brand new funk – friday may 28th, 2010 @ toika (471 richmond street w.)
So the copy for the “Assorted Goods: Too Deep” sucks. Here’s the write up for the Brand New Funk party Big Jacks & Mensa is putting down @ Toika (471 Richmond St. W.) on Friday March 28th. It’s gonna be a crazy jam. The copy for the “Assorted Goods: Too Deep” sucks.
Quoting DJ Mensa:
Brand New Funk is a celebration of the unfamiliar, the road less travelled, and the forgotten but not yet gone. Today’s iTunes playlists are well past their expiry dates. No one cares to unearth gems anymore. But in an effort to dig, tweak, and find new ways to play the old standard, what emerges is the Brand New Funk.
No better DJ is an example of this sound more than DJ Quartermaine. Formerly of indie hip-hop act Critically Acclaimed, Quartermaine earned his stripes as a prominent club DJ in the the musically rich, yet untapped region of Washington D.C. His tribute mixes to Raphael Saadiq, Maxwell, Erykah Badu, and Lenny Kravitz has given him internet cult status amongst music lovers, and new fans worldwide. He is currently touring with Oddisee promoting his latest project, Diamond District.
Where Wale, UCB, and Tabi Bonney are its few crossover heroes, Quartermaine’s claims the Low Budget Crew (Kev Brown, Kenn Starr, Oddisee) as champions of a scene often overlooked for bigger east coast markets.
However, what is lost by general public, is the gain for those who know.
Welcome DJ Quartermaine as he brings the Brand New Funk.
assorted goods: too deep – friday june 4th, 2010 @ toika (471 richmond street w.)
So the write up on the flyer sucks. I have to admit that Myself and Alex Delarge of Liveagl.com ended up rushing to write it so we can bang it out and get the flyer ready for a print deadline. Regardless I doubt this write up will be much better. As we all know that isn’t a reflection of the party, so come join us on Friday June 28th @ Toika (471 Richmond St. W.) as we submerge into the deeper vibes and sounds of Assorted Goods. See you there!

Alex dimez “all out” video featuring bozack morris
For those that don’t know, I’ve been doing things with my peeps Alex Dimez and the Just Entertainment fam for a minute. I got invited to the video shoot one cold winter morning and being a fan of the record, I had to come through just to show love. Somehow I found myself getting an acting role. So here it is now. Check me out gripping a bottle of Jagermeister and stumbling around to rap music!
Shouts out to Bonxx of Ryder Vision and Alex Dimez!

Here we go with some new blend/edit/remix flava for you courtesy of the taller half of BR!
