Once Drew Savage and Nicky Mason throw their stunners on and step into their lab they transform into Portland OR’s glitch-hop/street-grime kings, Boy Meets Club. They take underground hip-hop scholar Aesop Rock’s song “Citronella” and toss-up his lyrics into an abyss of mutant trumpets and run it all to the beat of a psychotic marching band. Believe me, this is as friendly as their bangers get.
Before Microsoft, Amazon, the Seattle Mariners, and The Seahawks, Seattle had a vibrant live music scene revolved around funk, jazz and soul music (think: Ray Charles). Most of these bands faded into the vaults of album obscurity, but a few, like Wheedle’s Groove, have been dusted off, remastered and reissued. Originally released in 1967, “H. O. E. ” is a window into the late sixties Seattle sound that sonically encapsulates all the groove based music of the time.
Since 2004 DJ C has led Chicago’s ghetto-bounce scene mashing-up and remixing everything from Chris Isaak and Britney Spears, to R. Kelly and Ghislain Poirier.

Here’s the dirt on Dirt Nasty: He’s an x-MTV VJ who was canned because MTV found out his first “acting” job were solo-hardcore-porn scenes. He acted in some random improv troupe that no one’s ever heard of. Rex Simon said fuck being an actor, I’d rather be a rapper. “Droppin’ Names” is Dirt Nasty’s golden shower to Hollywood. Because his latest incarnation is nothing more than a joke. But he’s just as good as all the rappers you hear on radio so he sounds legit.
