It’s going to be quite an evening in Chinatown tonight.
In case you missed my column last week, the team behind Contrast Magazine will introduce themselves with “The Get Go” at thirtyninehotel. But you won’t have to walk very far to check out another solid party.
Over at the Loft, Future Underground hosts “re:LOAD,” with help from Contrast and SIQ Records. The local label’s newest project, Murder Mainstream, will be on hand to earn some new fans.
Also in the building: DJ Packo. The Clubland veteran will release his new mixtape, “Mosquito Diesel: The Glitchtape,” tonight at The Loft.
Packo just dropped off the CD last night (see picture above), so I haven’t had a chance to listen to all of it just yet. But so far, I’m enjoying the variety of tracks and the inclusion of a few favorite local MCs, and dude is no slouch when it comes to scratching vinyl.
I’ve got two exclusive samples off the new mixtape after the jump: “DJ Packo’s 73-D Glitchroduction” and “Freestyle On Memory Lane” featuring Seph1.
Enjoy… maybe I’ll see you in Chinatown tonight?
