Just setting the mood for the BIG PARRRRRTY this Friday at Cielo. I'll be DJ-ing alongside Nickodemus, Chris Annibel, and Derek Beres in celebration of the Vieux Farka Toure Remixed: UFO's Over Bamako record release party. The album is fire (my remix of "Ana" is on there), proceeds go to help fight malaria in Mali, and the party itself will no doubt be reeedonkulous.

All of today's tunes come from singles that you really ought to have, produced by indie artists that you really should support. Brazil's DJ Sandrinho is making that boom for your butt. Nickodemus continues heating things up with this new single, the flipside contains a perfect reggae remix of "Mi Swing Es Tropical" (which became the new iTunes ad not that long ago). The remix allows Dj's like myself to play this dancefloor favorite again without feeling like we're just jumping on the iTunes bandwagon- COP IT. Spiritual South has also been really consistant with their "Worldwide Future Music" output lately- more gumbo funk greatness. And this last track from The Boys And Girls Club helps wind down the night smoothly. Lookout for more from these cats, associated with the Nuclear Family right here in Brooklyn.
