Happy Summer of ILL! My amazing vacation in Hawaii and mental show in St. Louis last weekend has left me feeling great and inspired to make lots more sweet bass music for your earholes. This is a big week so I’ll do my best to keep it concise.
At last, my new Electro House jam with Ground_Control “WHA?” will be released on Monday on my home label, Illeven Eleven Recordings with a phat Breaks remix by label boss Keith Mackenzie and the ILL maestro, DJ Fixx, aka (KMFX). Please support by purchasing a copy on Beatport! Check out a preview here. We love you long time!
If you haven’t already, you can still get a copy of GC & my Dubstep remix of “Draggin” by Enough Weapons released on Vibrance Recordings June 10th. Click here to buy on Beatport, click here for a preview.
Now, onto this weekend’s madness. Friday I am playing Ladies in Pink with the lovely ladies Jamie Lin, Dulce Vita and Thuyvu at a new venue, Monroe; all proceeds will be donated to breast cancer research. Saturday is the long awaited Opulent Temple massive, Rites of Passage, at Hangar 3 on Treasure Island. It will be an action packed night with an all-star line-up of local heroes alongside big players Elite Force, DJ Dan and Christopher Lawrence. Please support the OT 2011 efforts to get back on the playa where we belong! Look below for a special friends & family discount ticket link. Sunday is usually the day of rest, but not this week! I’ll be playing a South Bay daytime party myDollhouse with my besties Jen Lasher & Jamie Lin in San Jose.
That’s all for now. All event info is below. Hope to see you on the floor. “Dance the night away, live your life and stay young on the floor… dance the night away, grab somebody, drink a little more”
Yours Truly,

We decided to go big, massive, actually, to put together the party of the summer (year?) Step into a full immersion playa-tastic gathering of the communities’ best, as Opulent Temple hosts a mega spectacle to support a number of camps, artists, art cars, and performers to co-create an unforgettable night, and take a step towards the desert in 2011. A next level event reaching to the fringes of the underground in a concert level production. Here we go …
