[New Mix] Here is a live recording from one of our favorites, The Revenge, at one of our favorite parties, the Culprit Sessions in LA. On April 1st, Craig Richards, The Revenge and Droog graced the decks for the launch of the Culprit Sessions 2012 season at the Standard Hotel’s rooftop (affectionately referred to as Skyscraper Beach) in Downtown, Los Angeles. We’re looking forward to a long and memorable Culprit season this Summer and can’t wait for their next party.

[Festival] This one’s coming up quick… so if you aren’t already in the loop, get movin’, or you can save up for next year… Here’s the scoop: For ten days and long nights, Playa Del Carmen will be the backdrop for the BPM Festival, set along the quintessentially white sand beaches of the Mayan Riviera, located on the Caribbean Coast of Mexico; this is SXSW and WMC wrapped into one select week and three days of high end, dance music. When it comes to house music, BPM has, having now grown into its 5th year and counting, more or less cemented itself as a staple music event – 2011 saw over 25,000 attendees and over 120 deejays and live acts, performing day and night… Expect this year to be nothing less, and nothing less than a blowout. The 2011-2012 lineup includes some of my personal favorites of this last year and a slew of seminal, influential label showcases that will be presenting a foray of house, techno, and everything else in between. You can buy individual event tickets or buy a single wristband for 3, 7 or 10 days… For tickets and more see here.
In lieu of any post apocalyptic, 2012 rumors, the festivities will invariably be running from December 30th-January 8th… That’s 10 days of seamlessly, continuous music, and that’s a lot to decipher. With three to six parties a day, plan to take a lot of vitamin C with you; moreover, give or take a few coin tosses, as any discerning festival goer knows, you need to make some choices (because you can’t go to everything, it’s just too much).
I’ve outlined at least a party for each day. I’m recommending some more than others with a “do not miss” note.
**Friday, December 30th: Air London presents A Night in the Air: Simon Baker / Kate Simko / Nitin / Bioniq BUY TICKET
I’m a huge Simon Baker fan – Not everyone might know this man… this year will be his 3rd year turning heads at the BPM festival. This is a do not miss.
**Saturday, December 31st: ***NYE 2012*** Flying Circus presents Audiofly / Steve Bug / Nicolas Jaar Live / Benoit & Sergio Live BUY TICKET
If you didn’t know what to do for NYE, now you do. This is certainly the party to go to including a rare Live set from Nicolas Jaar. Everyone please thank Audiofly for putting together this fabulous lineup. Round of Applause and Happy New Year!
