Strictly Social is another LA staple that I’m glad is around. Neo-soul, funk, Hip Hop, world famous DJ’s, and beat makers have blessed the stage many times over. I have had the pleasure of seeing some of my friends perform. I’m glad to be celebrating Strictly Social’s 4thYear Anniversary! August 18th is going to be a party! Nikko Gray and Def Sound are going to be in the building, and the homie Brook D’Leau (J*Dvaey) will be having his debut performance. There’s also guest selector Mic Holden. And the ones you can always count on to play great tunes: resident DJ’s Sean O , Mona Lisa, and Destroyer. Thursday, August 18th is going to be a party! Come on out and celebrate with Strictly Social. BIG thanks to Nu-Soul Magazine for letting B+C be a part. Here’s to making it 4 more years of a great events and great music.

What did I just see?!? I’m not sure, but I know I have to watch it again. This video is crazy! Visually you can’t touch it with a 10-foot pole, and the track(s) are dope. My man Greg “The Dude†does great videos, but this is one side we don’t ever see often. He’s a motion graphics mad man. Not only giving you this graphic controlled chaos, but uses all 3 remixes of Exile’sPopulation Control (from the AM/FM album) in the video. DJ Sean O. was talking about this video for a while, and I can see why. Greg is pushing that bar higher folks, so keep those ideas pop’n. BIG shout to Samiyam, Dibiase, and Free The Robots on those remixes. Check out other works by Greg “The Dude” on Viemo.
Mr. DJ Sean O. has blessed us with a dope episode for Beats+Crates Radio.  This episode is jammed pack with everyone from the Lootpack to Devonwho. Summer’s End has a real chill lounge vibe, but retains some energy.  Very similar to DJ Sean O.‘s personality. You’ll never need to be in the mood to play Summer’s End because it’s right for every moment.
If any of you don’t know Sean O., he’s a mellow cat with an eclectic music collection. Sean O. is always down to share his knowledge and love for music. Catch him on KPFK’s (90.7FM) Soundwaves with the host with the most Mr. Abraham Beltran and the lovely Ms. Cecilia choppin it up. Sean O.’sSound Cloud account must be full, I swear this dude kicks out a mix a day. If you run into Sean O. or see him DJing at a spot, take a moment to say what’s up. He’s a truly a cool cat and a good friend. Check out DJ Sean O.’s newly redesigned site at DJSEANO.com, Twitter, MySpace, and everything else on the Internet. Download B+C: Summers End here and enjoy. BIG thanks to DJ Sean O. for bringing some dope tunes to Beats+Crates Radio. I also want to thank ISO50 for inspiring the artwork.

Starship 27 took off with no delay on Saturday. The listening party was held at Fatbeats (LA) and hosted by Houseshoes. There were performances by Snowman Jack, F.A.M.E. (Teeko, Max Kane, & Ivan), and Dibia$e. The party didn’t stop there. On to BOOMBOX!!! Boombox is coordinated by the one and only Inka One. Oddisee hosted the event for the evening with special guest with flows Trek Life. There were DJ sets by J1 aka The DEER, HouseShoes, Inka One, One Man Jazz, DJ Sean O, & GroWeyez. With all that talent you think it would be enough, nope. They also had beat sets by F.A.M.E. & Dibia$e. And you know Dam Funk did a little of everything. It was dope. Everyone stayed until Grand Star was closed. It was a great night. Just watch the videos!

THIS IS THE EVENT TO BE AT!!!! For reals. Mark September 5th on your calendars now. The main event is going to be kicked off at Fatbeats to rock the compilation Starship 27. There will be featured DJ sets by J1 aka The DEER & Houseshoes. Live beat set by Dibia$e & Snowman Jack (Devonwho hope you can make it), and another DJ set by Teeko & Max Kane. They are giving out free Starship 27 copies to the first 50 people! And of course free beer and lots of Fatbeats merchandise to check out. It’s going to be a packed house, but the party don’t stop there.
BOOMBOX is hosting the Starship 27 album release party. Boombox usually throws banging events anyways, but they are making this extra special with the lineup they got. Dam Funk, Houseshoes, J1, and hosted by Oddisee! Can you say off the HOOK?! Just check the flyer for the rest of the dope cats. To top it off they are going to have some crazy visuals by my man Moonsatellite. Not much else to say but GO! September 5th is going down in LA history as the day Starship 27 blasted off, so hop on because it’s going to be a great ride! BIG thanks to GroWeyez for making things happen behind the scene.
