this album is big. always digged Nicolay’s sound since Foreign Exchange, but im really feelin up the skirt on this one.  It’s hiphop-ish, housey, neo-souly, broken beat?, nu groovY, arigato-e…yeea so Tokyo.  I wonder if he made any of these there.

So ive been informed by Jen Gardens that he’s performing in Atlanta (Centerstage?) sometime this munf. lets go maaaaane.

:update: gardens gave me the word that its actually on 02.10.09.  prolly better cuz i be broker than joker rite now period

"By 1981 they declared that disco was dead and there were no more up-tempo dance records. That’s
when I realized I had to start changing things to keep feeding my dance floor."

“The international phenomenon of house music owes its existence to the basement clubs of 1980’s Chicago, but many Chicagoans are unaware of their city’s underground legacy. “Home Sweet House” reveals a thriving Chicago house scene hidden in plain sight. From a footworking battle on the South Side to a night out at a legendary North Side club, the film takes viewers to the city’s most hallowed house hotspots. Interviews with DJs, promoters, producers, dancers, and record store clerks—all set to a soundtrack of authentic underground Chicago tracks—answer the ultimate question that surrounds this legendary subculture: Why Chicago?”

yet again im left wonderin why i left my haus in chicago.
