Afterhours this weekend plus a huge show with Judge Jules

This weekend is a big one.  I am playing at Contour afterhours Saturday night (Sunday morning) from 2-4am.  As usual, it will be a great party for you super late-nighters.

Contour
807 1st Ave
Seattle, WA

I also want to mention the launch of a new night (I believe it will be every other month) called Shine on Saturday, the brainchild of Phase 3 Events and One Night Events.  Touted as "Seattle's Only Superclub Experience," the venue is huge, the sound will be massive, the DJs global, and the environment plush.  I know they've been working on this event for awhile, bringing in new furniture, decorations, and sound to a venue that is used only sparingly.  From what I understand, it will be a complete transformation and an experience that you'll only find in the bigger nightlife cities like Vegas, Miami, New York, and LA.  They've already sold out all of their VIP tables, and ticket sales are brisk.  Look for about 1000 people in attendance!  For complete info, check here:  http://www.nwtekno.org/showthread.php?t=143283.  My advice:  go check out Shine for an incredible new experience, and head to Contour for afterhours!

The First Gigs of 2010

Happy 2010!  I had a very nice and much-needed low-key New Year's Eve but quickly reversed course and saw possibly the best show of the past year on January 1st at Trinity (John Digweed). 

It's now midway through the month, and I have a few upcoming gigs.  This Saturday night (Jan 16/17), I have my monthly residency at Contour afterhours.  Details here.  There is usually a great crowd for afterhours.

Then, next month, I have 3 shows so it's going to be a busy February! 

I am playing an all-ages Valentine's show on February 5th that has been getting a massive amount of great feedback.  Details here.  

Then the next night on February 6th, Joshua James and I return to See Sound Lounge for what will undoubtedly be an early highlight for 2010.

  I also wanted to give a quick plug for my friend Jason LeMaitre (who a lot of you know).  Jason has entered himself into the Let's Mix It Next Generation DJ contest.  Top prizes include a management contract, gigs at the 2010 WMC, and some new Pioneer Pro DJ gear.  You can go to the mix he has entered into the contest here.  Listen to it and vote for it (if you like it).  He needs a little less than 100 more votes before the end of January to qualify for the next round.  My personal opinion is that it's one of the best mixes I've heard in the past year.  He also mixed in some of his own edits and mashups.  You'll have to register on the website, but it's super quick (name and email address), and I think you'll find many more mixes you like too.
