Omar S fan(tasy) club

Omar S - Who's In Key (Scion AV) from Scion A/V on Vimeo.

I am a huge fan of the master of the "Mo-town minimal sound" and asked him to answer some questions for our blog. He did not respond, which I kinda expected. I don't think any less of him for "doing me like that". haha.

He sells his own records for dirt cheap and they are amazing visionary paradise records! Check out this living legend.

Omar S's label FXHE

word has it he's doing a private party all night DJ set in SEA for NYE!

Litanic Mask

It just so happens that two very good friends of mine are making beautiful music together. Okay I have to admit that Portland is full of dynamic duos(and trios and so on) But all week I've been really enjoying the new tracks from Kenna Jean and Mark Evan Burden as Litanic Mask. I want to bottle Kenna's voice and pour it into my lavender eye pillow so that i might be protected by the lioness mother as i drift into sacred sleep. Is that weird? haha Check it out!

Polonaise on Mixmag.net

So you may remember we had an abortive post on Polonaise, the polyrhythmic house project of Avalon and Scott, a while back. Well, we took it down because we had a 100% Silk release brewing and wanted to woodshed a bit, til... now!

Scope Amanda Brown of Silk's mix for Mixmag (yeah) with a bunch of cool 100 Silk tracks and check out the preview of "Trocadero" from the forthcoming Polonaise debut 12" on Silk below. Enjoy and watch the sidebar here to order the Polonaise 12" very soon.

Right Here Club Mix

Self-described as a "post-experimental lazer-funk party-music space ship," Purple & Green (pictured above) is comprised of Portland's Adam Forkner (a.k.a. White Rainbow) and Justin Leon Johnson, two dance music patrons of the highest order. This "club mix" by Emotion II Emotion pares down the spacey sounds and implements a straightforward piano-house sound that skips and bounces in all the right ways while the song's soulful vocal performance is showcased front and center. You can check out all of Purple & Green's "Right Here" 12" here

After party

Tonight we are thrilled to host the live 9 piece disco-tripper-diva-funk ensemble know as Midnight Magic. We played a couple of shows together in NYC over the summer and are psyched to make it happen again in our hometown. Cut Copy will be joining us with a DJ set to close the party after their sold-out show at the Wonder Ballroom.

If you haven't checked it out yet Midnight Magic released a free 5 track EP last month on Scion AV which you can stream and DL below.

And a new single "Drop Me A Line" on Permanent Vacation with remixes by Steffi (<3), Holy Ghost and more.
