Pantheon Halloween CANCELLED

Oct 31 2009 10:00 pm
Nov 1 2009 4:00 am

This is neither a trick nor a treat.

We have just been informed by Wolfie that the venue for the Pantheon Halloween event has just canceled without any hint or notice. He was putting together quite a spectacular event for Halloween featuring two of our very own Ninja Skillz DJs, Mike Insane and Sammy Bliss, along with many of our other incredibly talented friends.

As we all know, the types of events that our community throws with the type of creative vibe that we all strive for often requires looking outside of typical clubs and into venues that allow us to transform them into temporary autonomous zones where art, music, and good times rule above all else. With these venues, there is always the risk that things will not go as smoothly as we could plan.

Unfortunately, this is one of those times.

Wolfie has informed us that all presales will be refunded.

Here are the other alternate events happening that night. Read more »

A sound whose genre goes something like; hip-hop, soul, electro, funk. You have two Emcees who charge sped-up lyrical flows; made to sound effortless. Rob & Burkey have realized an impressive and seamless synergy with their voices and their lyrics are playfully vivacious and positive. Set those lyrics atop the 5 piece band- Violin, Keys/Synth, Drums, Bass, Guitar layered with creative electro beats and it makes for a very fun and a dance-worthy music experience.

SOLOVOX
www.solovox.com
Flying down from Portland, Oregon for us, Solovox is a producer, composer and one-man synthesizer attack squad. Performing his own original music and remixes, he does it the way your grandaddy did it: by hand. Aside from numerous Burning Man festivals atop the Woonami and Mobile Groove Bomb busses, he has performed at Lightning In A Bottle, Elysium, and Emerg-N-See, as well as with The Mutaytor and March Fourth Marching Band. A truly one-a-kind dancefloor experience.

Two great sounds blended to kick a dance floor into top gear, hands in the air, give us more. Diva's hot house tracks seamlessly merged
with Zabala's Tech fueled electro bangers will keep you glued on the dancefloor. Its "shade" meets "ninjaskillz"

Ninja Skillz Los Angeles Invites You To Attend


. . . FABLE . . .

The FABLE begins…

The weary travelers settled in for the night, dusting off their furs and cleaning their goggles. By candlelight they opened the windows of the inn. Through the breeze came the echo of drums sprinkling magic in their ears. Hypnotized, they followed the tune down the dark roads to the last place they would ever imagine they would go. The doors opened in the deep cellar of the old gothic church. The music flooded out overwhelming the travelers. The spell had been cast. This night had begun.

Come experience the story with some of the greatest underground revelers and their favorite practitioners of musical magic. In two rooms, The Cellar and the Altar:

House & Electro Room (Cellar)

Mark Zabala (Ninja Skillz)
Diva Danielle (Shade)
Joplin (Pork & Beats / Deep-LA)
Michael Insane (Ninja Skillz)

Breaks Room (Altar)

Oscure (L.A.B.A. / Space Island)
Patricio (L.A.B.A. / The Do Lab)
darkMatter

This is also a celebration of Mike Insane getting older! So come have a drink with him!

Free shot for the first 50 people through the door.
Free CD to the first 100 people.

$10 all night

Make sure to check out Diva Danielle and Mark Zabala at the Pantheon Party the following day. http://pantheon.beticketing.com

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 5TH
9PM - 2AM

THIS IS IT.

THE BIG FINAL GOING-AWAY BASH FOR YER CARNIE UNCLE SAYNT @ HEAT.

Porter Tinsley ( who is largely responsible for Uncle Saynt ever having played in front of anyone ) and Michael Hart have graciously offered to let Yer Carnie Uncle have his going away party during HEAT at Zanzibar in Santa Monica. NOT ONLY THAT... but they have booked a legend of Chicago House, DIZ as the headliner. Uncle Saynt is probably going to be screaming like that girl in the Michael Jackson concert videos that has to be carried out by security.

Of course that will have NOTHING to do with all the drinks all you nieces and nephews are going to feed Yer Uncle Saynt.

GET THERE EARLY ( 9 PM ) TO HEAR SAYNT'S LAST SET IN L.A. BEFORE HEADING UP TO BLOW THE DOORS OFF THE BAY AREA!

DIZ ( IZ & DIZ, CHICAGO ) <------- SEE!? TOLD YOU!!!!!

TECH LOUNGE - A CAMP KUNDALINI FUNDRAISER @ KING KING
THURSDAY, JULY 30th - 10PM - 3AM

It's on like Donkey Kong at King King this Thursday night for Tech Lounge. This event is going to be a fundraiser for the Kundalini Camp's first run out to Black Rock City. Not to mention that it is part of Yer Carnie Uncle Saynt's week-long steam of going-away-party shenanigans. Get there early for SAYNT vs. BLUE on the sexy house tip. We'll be pouring a slick mix of house all over your sweaty, dancing bodies like honey.

Wait... you wanted to get all wet and sticky right? Didn't we see a request for that somewhere?!

Oh and you probably heard from Jesse Wright on his newsletter that he is playing all night by himself. While this is nothing new for our knuckle shuffle champ, we can assure you that Jesse Wright is totally not at the event under any circumstances and is totally not playing. A lot.

SAYNT ( NINJASKILLZ.NET ... SOON TO BE S.F. )

DJ BLUE ( BLUEINSOMNIA.COM, L.A. )

ANTeCHAMBER - Moody Moore's Farewell & Miscreants Fundraiser - San Diego

Jul 25 2009 9:00 pm
Jul 26 2009 2:00 am

JP and MARK ZABALA TAGTEAM.

Now that we have your attention...

It's Moody Moore’s last San Diego Hurrah and the Miscreant fundraiser on Saturday, July 25th at Kava Lounge on the gallery side. Music starts at 9pm and the door is $10 all night long.

Antechamber.

We’ve all been blessed with Moody for several years now. Those who’ve met her know she’s a force to be reckoned with. Those who are her friends know she’s the best friend you could ever have. We’re all sad to see her go. So right before she heads to DC we’re giving her a send off to remember.

Please come and show her your support and help a theme camp on the playa at the same time.

The DJ line up is combined of several San Diego favorites such as Scott Wakeham, Alex Holden (Happy), Chris Gardener, Austin Speed, Philly B and Jon Doss. We’ve also imported our northern brethren, Mark Zabala and JP. It’s going to be redick!

We’re raffling off several art and fashion pieces from our local talents; such as Jaqd Wear, Kyle Drumheller and Martin Sklar.

Jaqd Wear will also be available to take orders and sell clothes throughout the evening.
