Random Long Weekend, part three in the series and we bringing you a good one. Mark it down on your calendar folks, Sunday September 6th at The Modern (7 Alexander Street).

Straight from Cali with love is the one and only DãM Funk of Stones Throw. DãM (pronounced Dame) Funk throw’s one of the freshest Monday night parties in Los Angeles called “Funkmosphere”. He’s long been known as Los Angeles’ “Ambassador of Boogie Funk”.

As a DJ/selector, dãm attracts the most discerning Boogie Funk afficionados within driving distance of his storied Monday-night Funkmosphere parties (www.myspace.com/funkmosphere). But it’s not just collectors at the bar toasting to the melodic sounds. Anyone who grooves to the likes of Slave, Aurra, early Prince, Prelude Records and the like, will get a dose of those groups’ unknown contemporaries – more obscure but equally Funk-worthy.

The next phase of the Ambassador’s mission: continuing the classic West Coast tradition into today’s scene with dãm’s own original “Modern-Funk” compositions. By plugging in his arsenal of vintage synths and drum machines, dãm channels the galactic harmonies of his inspiration into his own brand of new boogie. Stones Throw Records’ like-minded honcho Peanut Butter Wolf brought dãm on to the team to glide into the future with his unique, synth and bass-driven vibe. It’s a promising new chapter for Southern Cali space funk.

What up folks. We want to thank everyone that came out that supported our very first Random Long Weekend event on June 30th at The Modern in Vancouver’s historic Gastown. The night went beautifully and everyone came out to the great music. In addition to all the great folks and music heads in attendance, we also had Steve Nash of the NBA’s Phoenix Suns in the house boogie-ing the night away and being gracious enough to let folks take their pictures with him. DJ’s Pump, Tyler Fedchuk and U-Tern definitely held the night down supplying a great variety of music. These three dudes vibed off of one another and delivered a crowd pleasing and well as DJ pleasing set.

Missed out on this one? Naaaah, no worries, the next one is coming up on August 2nd, which is BC Day. Again being held at The Modern with cheap cover and cheap drink specials alllllllll night long. DJ’s Wax Romeo, Hedspin and Crooks & Gunn will be holding down the party this time around.

Check out the photos from our first party here.

Whatup peoples – Here´s a mix I put together for some summer listening – 20 tracks deep with most of the songs played in their entirey. Nod your head, shake your ass, pump your fist…Do as you wish!
