Saturday: Basstown, DFA take over Axis
Our dude David Day has been talking about bringing big tings to big rooms for about a year now, and now the shit is finally starting to pop. In a let's-get-the-whole-scene-under-one-roof-and-give-it-a-name enterprise called Basstown Productions (useless trivia: Basstown was the rejected first name for David's "Circuits" column)a bunch of people are responsible for round one: a bonkerlicious night at Axis with local metallicafont headbangers Hearthrob and official DFA dj Tim Sweeney, whom webternerds (and any other people who prize Carl Craig remixes of Junior Boys and so forth) will know from his indispensible terrestrial/webcast radio gig "Beats In Space." It's the first place we check for secret DFA remixes that no one else knows about -- and may we add that the prospect of DFA giveaways tomorrow night is enough to get us there. Email the basstown kids for $5 off admission.
Here's Sweeney's winter-07 contribution to the DFA Radio Mix Series:
