On behalf of BT Magnum (Beat Electric), Paradise Lounge & myself, I'd like to offer my sincere & heartfelt thanks to those who came out Friday night to DISCOnotDISCO! Not only did the DJs represent with awesome tracks & great enthusiasm, but we also were able to get the GREAT visuals of That Mold Science (http://www.myspace.com/thatmoldscience ) to add to the party vibe. Thanks also go to Disco Tom Noble for the amazing flyer design! And the staff at Paradise Lounge - from servers to bouncers to the sound guy - were great to work with! Thanks, also, to all our friends to helped us in spreading the word about the party and coming out to support!

Personally, this party afforded me the chance to work with DJs who I admire & respect but never had a chance to interact with outside of my dancing to them DJing (Thanks BT Magnum, Bus Station John & Rebecca Watkins!) and it also gave me the chance to work with DJ friends I've known a long time, who got behind the disco concept wholeheartedly & rocked it (Thanks Hakobo, Rick Preston & Stanley!). Not to mention meeting Steven Hawley of the band all us disco heads are digging nowadays - Codebreaker! Supastar! :) He's in LA, so SoCal friends go check him out!

Check out the DISCOnotDISCO Facebook group & join it!

as we will be putting up pictures & LIVE recordings from the event in the next coupla days!



But, just for you since you are my super-special friends, you get an advance listen to my LIVE mix from DISCOnotDISCO! Enjoy! Give feedback if you please!

Many people have asked about the party, and here's the scoop! It was a one-off party thrown by myself and BT Magnum. Given the great feedback, there may be a future DISCOnotDISCO party and/or a future collaboration between Sergio (Go BANG!) & BT Magnum (Beat Electric)! He is the first person I've partnered up for parties, and was great to work with.

BUT now I (and the rest of the Team) focus my energy to promote and encourage you ALL to mark your calendars for the party that started it all, and keeps the movement going forward - Go BANG! Returning & starting MONTHLY at DECO SF! Saturday March 28 and every 4th Saturday thereafter!
