Nikls, cousin is coming back to play in Moscow with his Psychobilly band “Tony Montanas”. Come check it out. Its some other part (scene) of Moscow. The one you may have never seen before.

I am sure it will be nice and I may pop in later tonight. Saw “Luomo” from Finnland performing live at Simachevs last night and I am a bit beat up, but we’ll see. Luomo photos and my opnion abot the gig are following.
We had another Labelfucker Party last Friday. While we are sill processing the photos, we have the first video from the party already. It was a good party and for a the short time of Friday night we felt not being in Moscow, but in a New York style loft. Not only the loft was something different for Moscow, but also the people. There was a multi-culti mix with people from all over the world.
At one point the DJ stopped and some people feared the police ending the party at last time, but it was the highlight of the night, The Tipy a Russian Rock n Roll band that kicks ass.
More about Labelfucker and photos (coming up this week) from this party and the last on: http://www.labelfucker.ru
A big THANK YOU to anyone who made this party possible!
The Labelfucker crew joined forces with Zak and Ja’bagh from Idle Conversation. First we organized a nice little after work party next Wednesday at Propaganda. Its friends and family, as usual. Come early, enjoy a drink at the bar or have some food. Meet new and old friends, talk and network. At 11 PM we’ll move the tables and start the party. We have invited some of Moscows best DJs to feed your senses. Besides we’ll have a vj and we’ll show vidoes on the screen. It will be an early end around 2 AM, because we all have to work next day. Come join us, bring a friend or two. We expect a lot of people. Please send me an email and I’ll put you on our list. That will make sure you can pass Ja’baghs tight style- and facecontrol.
So is that the end of Labelfucker? You just moved into some old unfancy club? Nope. This is WOW! a new project between the Idle Conversation guys and us. We’ll continue to make our underground trash parties. Next one is in the planning already. Expect a Lopht Party Brooklyn Style at the end of November. This is a new, much bigger location. Away from residentials, so we can party without policemen.
WOW!

Being a former New Yorker I have a lot of Japanese friends. These guys run the coolest design stores in SoHo and one of my friends is a killer Drum & Bass DJ, a friend of Makoto and now a famous Tokyo club promoter. Takeya used to rock our NYC parties. I always wanted to go see Tokyo, but never made it so far. I guess its just too far away from my regular travelling routes to Europe and the US. Damn, probably I should take a vacation and the time to see and experience it. Especially the Tokyo club scene.
For all of you who feel like me, but are stuck in Moscow (with this terrible weather), there is a chance to see one of Japans most famous Hip Hop acts next Thursday (Oct. 25th) at Solyanka and Friday (Oct. 26th) at Simachevs. Of course DJ Baku wouldn’t call himself like that, since the Japanese are world champions in understatement. What a contrast to Moscow. Alone for that reason I will go see the guy :-)
Well, I am not a promoter and I am not just copying a press release (as other sites), stating what kind of things Baku has done and achieved in the past years. If you are into Hip Hop and Drum n Bass, go see DJ Baku. Take my word for it, its going to be good. On top of it DJ Baku is playing in my 2 most favorite hangouts: Solyanka (No1. in my Club Listing) and Simachevs (No.1 in my bar listing).
Dates: Thursday Oct. 25th @ Solyanka
DJ Baku Live Show within the regular Flammable Beats night

I think you can also listen to it Friday Oct 26th on Next FM 105,2 … but nothing is as good as the real deal. This event is brought to you by the Flammable Beats guys and Fujibeats. While I am at it. Check DJ Sestra’s Live Set this Friday after 10 PM on Next FM 105,2 (straight out of Simachevs) … or go see the Low Budget Family live at Simachevs.
