out the shell...
an upcoming party, new radio mix, updated playlist and some other reccos
The neighborhood turtle came out of his lil house which, to me, means that summer has arrived. Plus, I got back on my bike the other day so we’re making progress. I’ll keep this update brief since I vented to you last time. Hope you enjoy today’s offerings and can make it out to our party this weekend!
air fried
We’re throwing the first deep fried day party (aka air fried!) Saturday, June 1st, in a sweet alleyway in downtown LA. Really excited about the 7 (!!) DJs plus we’ll have tacos, coffee/tea, drinks and activities.

back on the radio
I was back on my favorite community radio station, BFF.fm, over the weekend guesting on my friend Vicky’s show, Vix Vapor Rub. We’ll be playing together at air fried so it was a nice little warmup of primarily disco-leaning, daytime party jams. Listen back here.
therabeats
Just have one playlist update for you this week but it’s a good one! Some pretty, slightly dancey, electronic vibrations across several genres.

Crumb’s latest album is an immersive, psychedelic listening experience. Hoping to catch them live whenever they come through LA next…
BELLA, who put out a fantastic EP last month, has one of my favorite Boiler Rooms in recent memory. Goes great with exercise…
