On the last night of my stay in Austin, before my 7am flight, which I missed because of drukenness, I had the pleasure and opportunity to spin @ Red Fez with DJ Kurupt and of course my guy Mike Swing. Super dope party and some of the best people in Austin, as evidenced by the bbm picture of me passed out. Anyhow enjoy the mix, as Mike Swing & I got busy on the turntables and played everything from UNLV to Jay and everything in between. In the words of my dude Omar, this mix is SIIIIIIICK…

Jerome Baker III & DJ Mike Swing Live @ Red Fez

The Do Over is THEEEEEE best party in the country. This video literally contains the first minute I got on the decks. Shout out to ATD for shooting the vid. Hopefully someone caught a few good minutes of my set and the audio SHOULD be around in the next few weeks.

Thank you to Jamie Strong, Aloe Blacc & Haycock for giving me the opportunity to play.

This is what u may have missed last Tuesday @ Recess. Don’t miss it tomorrow.

Shout out to my dude DJ Mike Swing. He was gracious enough to have me come down to Austin, TX this past Saturday and Sunday. Definitely one of the best times of my life and getting to play for new and different crowds is a challenge I am always up for. Anyhow below is the last hour of my set on Saturday night @ Six Lounge. Very top 40 spot, that is owned by Lance Armstrong & in the warehouse Distrct, so it was a big jiggy, but definitely fun as hell. Played some of everything from Pitbull to Human League & of course some Jay.

Jerome Baker III - Live @ Six Lounge

So this past Saturday & Sunday (August 21st & 22nd) super good DJ and excellent human being Mike Swing invited me to Texas, Austin to be specific, to spin with him @ his Saturday night & Sunday afternoon residencies. This being my first time to Texas properly, I wanted to make sure that I was able to document it properly. That said, my homies digicam flaked on me so I have a few blackberry camera pictures and DJ mixes to help remember the trip. Also SUPER shout to DJ Kurupt for letting me rock his Sunday night party which was ILL, so much so I got iced and BEYOND drunk. Pictures to follow, memories forever:

First stop of the trip was sneaker monster, Nice Kicks. Super Clean shop & really awesome people there. Met the owners and all the staff, an as you would expect on a Saturday afternoon it was crackn.

After the Nice Kicks visit, Mike & I shot over to Rubys BBQ. Shit was incredible. Real Texas BBQ, and the shit was good as can be.

That night we DJ’d @ Six Lounge which was CRACKN! Mixed crowd that wanted to hear everything and kept it moving right until 2am.

DJ Mike Swing getting BUSY! Dude absolutely KILLED it.

The next day we spun @ Union Park where Mike has the best Sunday afternoon brunch in the city of Austin. He definitely is winning with great food, awesome music, and the best looking crowd in Austin on a Sunday. Ppl braved the heat and hung out all day long. Shout out to my wife to be, I’m coming back for you shawty.

Sunday nights in Austin are all about DJ Kurupt & Red Fez. Kurupt is a monster on the turntables, super nasty with the cuts with superb selection and programming. I was given the opportunity to open for him and if I can find the file on my laptop I’ll definitely get it on the site. Just an awesome party w/great people. Really dope. I also got “iced” for the first time and that did me in.

These two songs RIGHT HERE! SHEEEEEEEIT….I’ll put any song thats up right now against the reaction these got…

DJ Kurupt FTW!

The trip to Austin was beyond awesome. S/O to DJ Mike Swing for all the hospitality, DJ Kurupt for letting me rock, and all of the other awesome people I met. I can’t wait to go back and NOT pass out on Sunday night. Thank you to ATD for helping put everything together as well.

Myself, Jerome Baker III, and superstar model DJ/homie Tom Lim are rocking this Thursday night in DC. Come thru and check us out as we get to play whatever we want and make the people bounce bounce bounce.

Congrats to Winston & The Couch Sessions for the move. Only looking good from here on out.

Revisiting The Oyster Bar

Ask Malto

Live @ Home 29 aka Gonzo’s Baltimoreux….Dr. Adam Gonzo is a really good DJ, even better dude, and was named Bmores best DJ a few years ago. Definitely inspired by a phD candidate/DJ.

I’m back in DC after a crazy 2 days in Austin, TX. Gonna upload both mixes and pictures on Friday. Great time and super shout out to DJ Mike Swing for putting me on.

LA on Sunday, Watchawannado?

Rick Rude is the best young DJ in LA.

I’d been pressing Rick out for a description of his latest mix and this is what he told me: “i mean i didn’t do a write up - the female thing is because i kept getting requests for dub from girls in the club”

Rick being one of the funniest and most talented DJs working today, plus our illustrious co-sign, is enough for you to go ahead and download this mix to start your weekend off right - trust me this shit is dope.

Rick Rude - Fix Your Make Up

Chicago has SuperFun.

NY has a Open.

LA has Cinespace Tuesdays/The Do Over, etc.

DC now has The Good Life.

Simple as this: a fun party in a downtown club that is allowing us to bring an “N.E.R.D. video x House Party (the movie)” vibe to DC nightlife.

DJ Impulse will curate the evening, with a special opener. Expect the music to be better than any other party you have been to in DC and let that music take you placse you

No dress code, but showcasing your individual style will help you in the door, that and having ladies with you.

5 dudes @ a time trying to get in? Not going to happen.

Wearing double Gs head to toe trying to get into the club? Not going to happen.

This is about taking your style and attitude and merging it with those who have similar mindstates, desires and ambition.

This particular kick off/opening edition we are celebrating 6 birthdays, one of which is my 30th. I’m excited about 30, but I’ll get to that Wednesday.

For now enjoy the video and flyers below and we’ll see you Tuesday night.

A full explanation of the movement will be offered Monday, but for now watch the video:

and go to the party on Tuesday night:
