Gift gift and gift
Lil ones !
The record of the month is back with a supa nice one :
We are lucky to have Mister Blaise Deville’s contribution !
There’s been tons of discussions lately on wheteher-being-a-DJ-even-means-anything-VS-being-a-producer-so-show-me-what-you-got-?- blah blah
2 points :
- Blaise is this talented guy we are lucky to have in town.
- Technical skills, huge passion for discovery, amazing music collection + Deep Tendency to be Genuinely Generous, that’s where Blaise is.
So when it’s about releasing a mixtape, while some guys are putting quickly made stuff for sale all over the internet, Blaise brings his CD and puts it on the shelf, for free, at your favorite coffee spot. How cool is that ?
I picked mine at my “Ni hao, I am an expat, I am lost but I like to say ni hao, I even can write it for you if you like” internet cafe.
Here it is :

I won’t talk about his mix cos that’s difficult for me and it’s someone else’s job, but :
Sure thing is, one of the most delightful part of this week was to
walk home and press play…
… and start again when it’s over.
Now, if you don’t know where your fav expat coffee is, you can come by LOgO tonite, there will be a few ones dropped before the HUH? party gets started.
Oh yes, which record of the month for January 2010 ?
Blaise picked three, saying I could choose and keep two for the next time.
- The XX, XX
- Antipop Consortium, Fluorescent Black
- King Midas Sound, Waiting For You
So here is a very smart collage of the three of them.
My fav is APC and it cannot be anything else. Haven’t I told you I saw their release party in NYC ? Not yet ?! wow ..
