TONITE: Homo/Sonic @ The Black Cat

DJ Natty Boom and the TNG gang are back at it for the 2nd Homo/Sonic in 1 month- WHOA!

"January is an exciting month for fans of The New Gay, good music and meeting cool people. Our last Homo/Sonic queer dance party went so well that we're getting another one in the same month. Come join regular DJs Zack and Michael, and special returning guest Natty Boom (of the Anthology of Booty) for a night of ass-shaking, booby swinging, dick-like-a-helicopter dancing to indie, electro, retro, disco, booty pop and beyond.  As usual our parties are coed, trans-inclusive and straight friendly.  See you there!  All ages $10"

There's even a pre-game for the ladies @ Nellie's beforehand!

SATURDAY: AMANDA BLANK w/ Maluca DJ's Lil El & Jackie-O! @ RNR Hotel

Have to give my home-girl Lil' El a big shout out for scoring an opening DJ set for Amanda Blank!  I'm unfortunately DJ'ing a bday party that night, but congrats and good luck!

Also on SATURDAY: SHIFT: Slay Ride 2010 @ COBALT

Maison Mixtape #4

Maison Mixtape #4: (click to download some mp3s from the mix!)
1. Modjo- Lady (Hear Me Tonight)- this song was a banger back in 2000 and probably came out at the height of French House.  I'm ready to bring it back in a big way, just like French House is back in a big way!

2. PNAU- With You Forever (FM Attack Remix)

4.  Mr. Oizo- Jo (Kamei "Vanilla" Edit)- Kamei is a French House/Disco producer out of Brazil.. and he's is 15 years old!  Ridiculous- and this is a great take on the legendary Mr. Oizo.

our weekend starts on wednesday: happy bday @lilel!

I love Wednesday nite shenanigans!  Luckily there's plenty to go around tomorrow

Triple Threat Birthday Bash @ Science Club

My homie Lil' El will be celebrating her birthday this Wednesday at her weekly party Ill Element @ The Science Club... but with a twist.  She's having an open DJ booth! RIDICULOUS!  I'll be having a short set  along with some of DC's best.  Stop by and enjoy some great vegetarian food and drinks in the process.

Pink Sock Presents: Zak Efron's Pink Pajama Party @ Wonderland Ballroom

This is definitely one of my favorite new parties in DC, and I had one of the best times DJing it last month.  My Maison sidekick Shea Van Horn joins Ryan Duncan and Bradley Portnoy in DJing this month's Zak Efron inspired party at the amazing Wonderland Ballroom.

Weekend Preview [1/7-1/9]

I think DC is still recovering from a crazy NYE weekend as the number of events this weekend is a little down- in my opinion.  However, what the weekend outlook lacks in quantity in makes up for in quality- particularly on Friday night.

THURSDAY: hrmmmm.. not much going on tonite actually.  Duplex Diner is always a sure-fire bet for a Thursday nite though.  Also- the NCAA national championship is going on tonite.  I'm still not quite recovered from that Iowa win on Tuesday, and don't particularly like either team.  That said, it is a the final nite of a great college football season.  Go to a watch party (Nellie's is a guaranteed great place to watch the game) then head out.

FRIDAY: RAW @ Green Lantern

3 guys who got it going on in Gay DC nightlife, collectively known as Bil Van Jones, host this dirty dance party at none other than the Green Lantern.  I use this nite as one of my only excuses to go to this guilty pleasure bar and let loose.  Fun music and fun people- definitely check this nite out.
