Jon Kwest Heading West in Support of Debut

"I've seen....attack ships on fire off the shores of Orion"

His Last Don EP comes out next Tuesday but it looks like Jon Kwest and Think 2wice Records are giving everyone a listen early.  This comes ahead of a west coast trip for the Bmore native who will play at San Francisco's SOM-Bar this Sunday at Moombah Sauce.  As far as what he's prepared for, Kwest told SF Station, "Being somewhere where people actually want to be is fun. I have some Bay Area songs I’m gonna play, see what peoples reactions are." Check out a selection from Kwest's forthcoming release.  And follow the jump for two bonus remixes!

This is really my favorite Kwest original of the bunch as it showcases his bouncy nature.  It feels like I'm already in the club getting ready to shuffle onto the dance floor after a couple drinks at the bar.

Kwest turns to one of his many specialties here with "Stabbin Cabin", a laid back soul filled track that calls on its listener to keep up the pace.

Returning once again to the legendary U-Street Music Hall on January 18th it's Moombahton Massive XI featuring Nadastrom, DJ Sabo, Pickster One, and Bro Safari.  These parties are infamous for ass shaking, loud bass music, and people getting reallllll grimey on the dance floor.  Need proof?  Check this preview video for the upcoming event.

Coachella 2012 Lineup Announced

2 Weekends Of Fun

Goldenvoice today released the highly anticipated lineup for it's dual weekend festivities coming this April known as Coachella.  Among the dozens of acts making waves this year, At The Drive-In who announced today that they were reuniting (possibly in conjunction with the Coachella announcement) and Sunday will be a hazy night in the desert as West Coast OGs Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg (who was arrested over the weekend for drug possession) headline.  I was hoping some big names in the Moombahton movement would get invited but it looks like they'll just have to settle for the infamous hotel parties that go on throughout Palm Springs during what is sure to be a crazy two weeks.

Steed Lord says hello to 2012!

wassup Iceland??

It hit the mid 70s today in LA where trio Steed Lord has settled but in their Icelandic homeland, it was a chilly/snowy day that they chose to release their latest remix of "Devil In Me" by fellow Icelanders Legend.  The Steeds have promised much for 2012 and I expect them to deliver as this track does, with their classic synth stylings highlighting the great vocal of Krummi Björgvinsson.  Look for the track as a free giveaway on the Steed Lord facebook page; and follow the jump to more from LEGEND.
