24 HOUR PROGRAMMING EXTRAVAGANZA


Tune in for two weeks of 24 hour programming by our beloved DJs!

FLYING LOTUS

“A vastly enjoyable evening of scrabbling percussion and beats like addictive migraines climaxes in a voracious, sample-heavy encore that skitters from Radiohead's Idioteque to Beastie Boys' Intergalactic, via virtually every musical point in-between. By its end, Ellison seems to be verging on an ecstatic, nervous breakdown: the acolytes queuing to high five him indicate he is not alone.”

– The Guardian

ABE VIGODA

“Lush, tropical punk that's swallowed as many strains of sound as the images it conjures.”

- Pitchfork

PURO INSTINCT

“If they haven't been already, Puro Instinct, formerly Pearl Harbor, are a profile in your local alt-weekly waiting to happen.”

JULIANNA BARWICK

“The Brooklyn-based singer adds new wrinkles to a sound based on looped and
layered voices, and the result is flat-out gorgeous.”

– Pitchfork

DELICATE STEVE

“Delicate Steve understands and is equally intrigued by what you can do with a great vintage synthesizer, but his George Harrison/Eric Clapton-esque guitar melodies are what make this album worth listening to.”

– Paste Magazine

SISTER CRAYON

“Note the name Terra Lopez now as there’s the feeling on this debut album that the Californian singer/songwriter has the talent to, eventually, make an impression on the mainstream”

– BBC

ANA CARAVELLE

“She writes songs with an intuition toward the feel of cut-and-paste sampling, and the sense that arrangements don’t have to neatly stack up to be entrancing.”

– LA Times

BROOK AND RIVER

“The entirety of the band are incredible musicians on their respective instruments.”
