UPDATE

So... yeah, it's only been like, what, two months since we've done an update? Lots of information to relay.

Firstly, if you didn't notice, the WhateverWeWantRecords stuff didn't end up in the Sarcastic webstore as mentioned earlier... uh, sorry about that. "Noo reeaasonnn..." Hope you were able to find it elsewhere. Speaking of, you still might be able to find those records in the newly opened Hideout online store in the UK. They had copies last time I looked. Check it out! If you don't know what The Hideout is all about, read the informative history section on their site.


PRINCE FATTY Nina's Dance 7"

Speaking of England, our homies over at Stussy UK have a really neat special edition package coming out for all the reggae lovers in the audience. Limited edition box containing an exclusive 45 by Prince Fatty ("Nina's Dance"), one of 5 limited t-shirts, custom 7" slipmats, custom 45 adapters & stickers too. 2000 sets worldwide, and 400 aditional hand-painted copies of the 7" released promo-only and to specialist vinyl shops around the globe. The 7" is also a collab between Study Master records (who helped out with WhateverWeWant) & Stussy. More detailed info and pictures at the official site (be sure to listen to audio clips and play with the space echo loop toy while you're there.)

Looks like the Rub N Tug guys got a website up. Hit Eric & Thomas up, book 'em for partytime. Be on the lookout for new remixes of LCD Soundsystem and Sly Mongoose by the Rub N Tug guys as well.


Speaking of Rub N Tug and Stussy, Stussy Japan will be having Rub N Tug plus special guests Force of Nature and Paul T (among others) for a four date tour of Japan at the end of August, passing through Tokyo, Osaka, Okayama and Hiroshima. Specific dates to follow. Supported by Stussy (of course), Sarcastic, Mad Hectic, SoundHero, Bal, and Gimme 5. And yes, limited edition shirts of the above graphic will be available, each from the individual brands in their own colorway.

FENG SHUI –— FOR THE NIGHTCLUBBER

"Hang your mirror ball at least 12 feet from the dance floor. This will ensure that all the positive energy released through your scalp will have space to dissipate. Too many positive waves crushed into a small amount of air have the ability to generate a friction that may lead to sudden mood swings.

Speaker stacks, as a rule, should only ever be placed on the dancefloor itself. Never hang from the ceiling or attach to a wall. Sound frequencies must be allowed to enter through your toes first, never through your ears.  This will boost your chakra from below and elevate you mentally.

Neon lights, strobes, and rotating pin spots should work on a cycle, and be evenly spaced. Lights that are placed too tightly together counteract with your aura and this leads to a negative feeling. Avoid this by measuring carefully.  Remember to only mix pastels with pastels and primaries with primaries."

HOW TO TELL A TRAINSPOTTER'S TOP 10 FROM A DJ'S TOP 10

The DJ's Top 10 is the one with the record in it which had an edition of more than 300 copies. The Trainspotter's Top 10 is the one with the record in the category "godawful, but rare as hell".

The DJ's Top 10 is the one with no tracks that don't exist on vinyl. The Trainspotter's Top 10 is the one with the tracks that don't exist.

The DJ's Top 10 is the one with the typos. The Trainspotter's Top 10 is the one that doesn't contain his own records.

The DJ's Top 10 is the one you got really fast. The Trainspotter's Top 10 is the one that came in late, because it needed to be compared to the Top 10's of other Trainspotters, and with the book with the xeroxed labels, because his play copies are all stickered, and the sealed ones are in a safe in Geneva.

The Trainspotter's Top 10 is the one that won't contain: ... where he got the records. The DJ's Top 10 is the one with no records older than the expiration date on the milk in his fridge. (heavy one)

The DJ's top 10 is the one that contains: "ehmmm... the new one by those guys from ehmmm... on the label with that logo you know? Anyways, the second track on the b-side of that one." The Trainspotter's Top 10 is the one that contains: "Rhythim is Rhythim - It is what it is, transmat, ms 6, 1988, black, 20/80, Bob, 10, Warm but cloudy with a little rain later in the day." (artist, title, label, year, matrix #, colour of the vinyl, lever position of the vinyl mixer, name and shoe size of the guy who mastered it, weather forecast for the city on the day it was pressed)

The DJ's Top 10 was the one you got sued for not publishing. The Trainspotter's Top 10 was the one you got sued for publishing.

WARREN'S BACK! (SO WE HEAR)

Ladies and Gentlemen, Warren V. (Electric Lotus, Lo.Cal, Canada) — is back in L.A.

The new Head Room site is up, check it out. Speaking of Head Room, we're getting excited for the upcoming appearance of Theo Parrish on the 28th, presented by Faith and Head Room.

Don't forget to check out Harvey DJ touring Japan from Sept. 20-28th, appearing in a city near you. We don't know who exactly is coordinating the tour, but we're guessing it's Fresh Jive? Or their distributor? We hear there is an extrememly large advertisement in some Japanese magazine, so scope it out if you can.

Don't miss out on More Fridays this week with regulars Warren V. (e.lo) & Guest Drinker while Tony Watts and Scott K aka DJ Phoenix play the deep, soulful house music and dance classics.
