Party Ends

   Friday Night’s DJ Melee event at the Mohawk was pretty much as big of a success as anything.  The free admission, the cross section of who was involved and the curiosity of the whole shebang drew a wide range of drunk boys, dance starved ladies and a stockade of friends and family for each of the three competing talents.  The place was decorated with multiple projectors showing both information as well as mini-nanny cams on each of the DJs’ hands so even the folks on the upper deck could see everyone’s wild style up close and personal.  

Congrats to Giant Hornets From Japan who walked away with the honor of being selected as the night’s victor.  This cat seemed to come out of nowhere and wowed the audience and judges with his selection and blends.  Plus – dude had maybe the coolest DJ name ever.  At the end of the night house DJ Orion (he played beforehand- he did not just play house music- thank god) and other competitors DJ Manny and DJ Tweedy played an all-star collaborative set the likes of which the Mohawk has never seen before- 8 turn tables at once- on two different building stories.  This was perhaps the best part of the night and lo, the crowd was apperceive.  

   Round TWO is at The Beauty Bar on May 9th.  Looks like it will be Abominatron versus Ian Orth versus DJ Starsign.  DJ Tweedy will be the house DJ w/ The Giant Hornets from Japan dropping in to guest spin a few jamz as well.     

   DJ Orion is about to take off from Austin and do some high profile dates with the one and only Yo Majesty so buy him a drink and dance a cumbia jig for him if you see him around.  Check out this original that he and Yo Majesty’s Shunda K made: it is chock full of electrobangitude, partyswagger, and durrtydanceinstructions !
