my first MUXTAPE + the best cover i've heard in years!

How can you not love Miley Cyrus???

I'll be honest. i Love Miley Cyrus! So cute, and so talented. She's is taking over! well i guess the whole Cyrus family is! they deserve it, as they are the nicest family i've met in the business. One time I gave Billy Ray Cyrus one of my Hell Ya! mixes when I met him a while back @ one of the first Metro Station shows - - and the next time we spoke - he told me which songs he liked best!!! WTF!?!?! BIlly Ray you rock!! That shit never happens!

SO thanks to Jax here is your new favorite Cover song. She posted it today on her ROCKINSIDER blog about THE MAE-SHI covering MILEY CYRUS 'See You Again'
It's soooooooo good. Damn the mae-shi are so genius. I can't stop listening to this.

MEZZANINE OWLS 'SNOWGLOBE' (mp3 via jaxart)

JAX has got her shit together alright - her label JAXART is putting super solid 7' inch records - - she has 2 out of the 4 bands on this bill tonight - - get the vinyl while you can - as i'm sure it will end up as a collectors item. I'm buying 4 copies of each - cause i'm a vinyl nerd!

read more and download trax from all the bands playing from JAX's ROCKINSIDER POST HERE

come say hi to me & ana (*dimmak) & jennifer teft (spaceland booker & soul music expert! *she spins @ the shortstop on sunday nights - - all soul music) we will be djing between bands - if i'm not on the decks - i'm probably flirting with the saxophone player from Eli's band. cause he's hotttttttttt.com

HELL YA!

get to know VENUS INFERS (especially if you like Razorlight as much as I do)

I have been so f-ing busy that I forgot to give a quick recap of the last 1029310374 hell ya nights - - - so before I forget AGAIN - I wanted to quickly post about Venus Infers.

I first heard about this band from LARRY LITTLE from his kick ass TANKFARM compilation. Right away I loved the track, and when I saw a photo of the band I instantly thought of KINGS OF LEON. (hot)
These guys are damn good. I mean really good. I couldn't take my eyes off the lead singer for a number of reasons: 1) he's really pretty 2) he's really tall and super thin (*i like my rockstars to dissapear when they turn sideways!) 3) he's got some serious pipes 4) he started and played the whole set SHIRTLESS! SEE PHOTO

(mind you this is at the ECHO, i'm sure most people in the audience were put off by this, but I applaud them for having the balls to do it. Take that hipsters. If you got it, flaunt it! If you don't, create it! haha

So for fans of Johnny Borrell (RAZORLIGHT) & Kings Of Leon, etc.... this may be your new favorite band!

**Thanks to all the bands who played, because the whole HELL YA! lineup was awesome - BIRDS OF AVALON and CAVIL AT REST both SLAYED live. Will somebody please get CAVIL AT REST a great producer that can capture their live show?

Head over to ROCKINSIDER to read more about the show and download mp3's. JAXwrote a great recap of the show on her blog HERE and posted photos from the night on her Flickr page HERE.)

My 200th post! YAY. Plus a recap of HELL YA! last thursday w/ Mezz Owls & The Mae-Shi!

Damn I haven't ever been as busy as right now. It's a good thing. So much good stuff happening, and so many great club nights / dj events I've been involved with. I got to DJ the SPACELAND 13th Anniversary Party, which was amazing. 13 bands and it seemed I was djing for 13 hours. HAHA. I love djing though, so no complaints! (Thanks Jennifer!) :)



The past Hell Ya! Night was one of our best. As I have said before, I'm a terrible writer, with terrible grammar. So I will leave it up to a few other amazing bloggers to explain the greatness of last thursday's Hell Ya! Night @ The Echo w/ Frankel, Eagle & Talon, Mezzanine Owls, & of course THE MAE-SHI!

Thanks to the following bloggers for some great reviews:
Especially one from the CLASSICAL GREEK THEATRE BLOG, who pretty much summed up my thoughts here:

'Last night The Mae Shi proved, again, that they are the best live band in Los Angeles.

Period.

No, your counter-argument is wrong.

I love Silversun Pickups, Autolux, The Cold War Kids, Airborne Toxic Event, Earlimart, and any other LA flag-bearing band of excellence. Those bands are remarkable assemblages of talent and we are blessed to have them. They write amazing, inspiring, thoughtful music. They write better songs than songs The Mae Shi write. But The Mae Shi are the best fucking live band in Los Angeles. Bar. Fucking. None. End of the conversation. Omega. Fin.'
