Live Radio Show Broadcast from Texas & into Metaversatility - Feb 26 8pm (slt)

From the press release: "Bringing a great mixture of progressive electronica styles from Nu Jazz to Lounge and Hip-Hop, we will play their original material, as well as a selection of similar electronica from our favorite artists. Our avatars will be broadcasting from the KRTU complex on Metaversatility island. Come sit in and participate in an evening of discussion, interview, and great electronic music." http://slurl.com/secondlife/Metaversatility/190/157/32/

Bliargh Dada (host) & Adri Saarinen (Metaversatility coordinator) conducted a listening session & livechat with A.M. Architect (electronic musician) and delivered a great radio show (which was broadcast from 91.7fm San Antonio, Texas and into Second Life). I really enjoyed the format of the show (with a studio/living room setting) that weaved from talks about A.M. Architect's music and influences to playing his original tracks mixed in with music to fit the same flavor of genres.

Lots of friends and familiar faces came out for the show including Frogg Marlowe, Ute Hicks, Moo Money, & Celebrity Trollop.

Can't wait to check out more shows and the musicians they feature.

Dekoi Phlox @ Piranha - 2/22/07

Dark Machines & STEED Drop the Beats HEAVY @ Le Cube

I happened to venture to a party in the late afternoon. DJ DarkMachines Hax was droppin' some HUUGE heavy breaks. I'd never been to Le Cube http://slurl.com/secondlife/Solchan/142/105/52/ but the place was happening, and the DJs obviously have skill. It was a very refreshing experience, proving that SL is a great place to find true DJ talent from across the globe. Elecktro Newman seemed to be producer/promoter of the event. After Darkmachines came another resident DJ, STEED Schlesinger. He immediately caught my attention as well with his booty breaks and funk joints.
I was thuroughly impressed with the fact that these DJs broadcast a video feed as well. I would love to do this myself, but can't manage to get enough bandwidth goin' for me. I'm glad to see more and more RL professional DJs are making their way to play parties in SL.

DJ Pits Yao at the HUB Club

I hopped over to the HUB Club Feb 12th for some drum-n-bass. Pits selects some excellent tech-step & dark-step for the show. The tracks he pick are perfectly avant-garde in the beat play. I really really like the www.audiocourses.com build, possibly one of my favorites in SL. The long hallways, the circular pillars of art, performance venues, the HUB club, all in these dark corridors outlined with red glow and creativity.
Here are some pictures of the event: Pictured: Christy Cosmos, Pits Yao, Doubledown Tandino
