LIVE VIDEO/PHOTOS FROM CHARLOTTE, NC

So last week I went on a little mini-tour with Dances, hitting up Charlotte, Miami & Philadelphia.  The Future Gospel Road Show.  The parties were a blast.  Thanks to all who came out.  It’s been wonderful getting back out there in front of people.  Here are a couple of live videos from Charlotte:

Is That Your Girl?

Fire It Up

And here are a few still photos from the same show.  All shot by my lovely fiancee Vivian, of course.

P.S. My “Home Video” for “Is That Your Girl?” has been seen by over 1200 people, in the last week, are you one of them?  If not, watch it here, the audio quality is a little nicer than the other live stuff… and keep an eye out for Home Video #2 next week!

Just wanted to share a few quick little bits with you…

First up, announcing a couple of last minute shows coming up next week… Girls & Boys (the wonderful Friday night party here in NYC) is headed down south, with new monthlies starting up in Charlotte and Miami, and they’ve asked me and Dances With White Girls to come and christen the events.  So I will be performing live sets on Wednesday night in Charlotte, NC (@ Butter Charlotte) and Friday night in Miami (@ EVE).  Come out, I think it’s free with RSVP, you can check the events out here…

In other news, Annie Mac played “Is That Your Girl?” on the Annie Mac Mashup last night (Friday) on BBC Radio 1.  You can listen here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006wqdc

She had this to say about the track: “Punk Techno… So the singer is Mattie Safer used to be the bass player and singer of The Rapture and it’s produced by him as well [ED NOTE:Dances With White Girls co wrote and co-produced and the track features Telli from Ninjasonik]… Definitely a standout track for me ”

Thanks Ms. Mac!  Super “chuffed” about that one.  Or as Dances put it, “cross another thing off my list.”

Oh, on a side note, I don’t know if this is a screw up or not, but it appears that the compilation (and my track along with it) is now for sale?  Go buy it here: http://digital.turntablelab.com/search/release.php?ALBUM_ID=12542

Also, I don’t know if you’ve seen this yet, but I thought it was pretty cool, a little mini site for LTCT, be sure to read the Busy P interviews… http://www.edbangerrecords.com/ltct/index.html There’s one with this little handsome devil:

Other than that just been hard at work on this “Future Gospel Sound” mixtape!  Should be done soon, you’ll see it here first!!!

That’s all for now!

HAPPY NEW YEAR(S)!!!

I don’t discriminate, whatever you want to call it, I hope tonight (and the rest of 2011) goes off for you!

Thinking I’m gonna be running around BK with some friends tonight.  If you’re looking for something to do, you might wanna try this… my partner-in-crime Dances With White Girls is DJing at Bedlam in Brooklyn tonight…http://interrobang.fr/
