Destroy and Rebuild

Like I mentioned last week, I've been busy with a few unexpected things lately. No worries - more of the events, reviews, and more will be up soon. Some movie reviews/commentaries will be up very soon (read: this weekend). And yeah, I'm late on my Dark Knight review, but I'm putting it up anyway.

Event Review: Air Questo Launch - Fri, 8/1



This party was great. Cool people, low-key ambiance, good music...it was fun. There was another DJ right before Questlove and he was doing his thing -I'll get his info and put it up later.

Questlove's set was very different from what I heard from him about a year ago at Hiro - last year, he played so much GOOD old school R&B. What was most amazing was that I didn't recognize half of the songs at all. It was an education.

At last week's party, Questlove's set didn't lack didactics, but it was more playful, more mainstream: he played essential, newish hip hop songs and proceeded to play their just-as-good-if-not-better sample sources.

That was fun, but, music geek that I am, I'm looking forward to his set at LOVE on Saturday.

And more photos of last Friday are on Miss Roxee's photoblog!
