With songs like Keep It Together and Noise Will Be Noise, it’ll make you tap your feet and shake your heads in a dance frenzy yet mellow enough to just stand and sip your adult beverage and enjoy the music. You can download both tracks at the bottom of this post and decide for yourself.
I received an email from Andrew about a couple of weeks ago to checkout a youtube video. It was a music video for a song called “Starcrossed” by the band Race You There. What was cool about the video is, every image used was from Google Street View! Read more »

LOZ Luchadores has exclusively created “thesoop electro mix” that you can download for free! If you like hip hop, electro, some Johnny Cash and more, this mix is for you. If you haven’t heard of LOZ Luchadores, you will. They’ve quickly moved into the music scene with beats that makes you shake that rump. We’re definitely going to their next event, see you there!
What a night! I met a famous band (I think), famous photographers, agency folks, thefreshfiends.com and overall interesting kiddos. It all began with a short trip to the Lost Leaf to meetup with a photographer. While there I met a friend who was going to celebrate her birthday at Bar Smith. I told her I’ll see her there in a bit. The photographer I met was Edward aka PHOTOHOE. An exclusive interview with Edward coming soon. You can see some of his work next First Friday at the Dragonfly.
You heard of Nacho Libre, now let me introduce you to LOZ Luchadores! I was at Fuse on a Friday night and found myself standing next to them. The music was loud and I couldn’t really hear them talking to me. One of them introduce himself as LazLo, said he was the voice or translator. I didn’t understand what he meant until one of the DJ’s tried to have a conversation with me. Couldn’t understand what the hell he was babbling about until LazLo translated that he was trying to say “hi”.
Not being stereotypical here but could be because they’re Mexican?! Hey, don’t judge, I’m asian and feel like the minority everywhere I go. And no, I do not carry chopsticks with me. They told me they are a crew of three, two DJ’s and a manager, who are wrestlers who wore masks but plays good electro music.
I would go to their shows but worry if I should be wearing tights and a wrestler suit. Joking aside they are great, here is their 2009 mix by El Baggy PantZ and DJ Quien Sabe.

You know, I really need to title these posts with more creativity. Just another Thursday Night in Downtown Phoenix? Is that the best I can do? Blah…anyways besides the lame title it was an interesting night regardless. There was a band playing at Coach&Willies this night. I never got the name of the band so, if anyone does hit me up!
