Where The Party Was On Saturday Night.. at NIGHTLIFE

Sunday, May 10th, 2009

This past Friday, the party to be at was at the Echoplex as VTech and Beat Junkie Sound brought NIGHTLIFE back to L.A.

The warm evening weather and the promise of good music brought people out in droves to celebrate NIGHTLIFE with Pete Rock. A queue began to form before the venue doors had even opened. Once inside, DJ Babu and J.Rocc warmed up the tables as the audience began to take their positions around the stage with some die hard fans never moving. 

The music was bumping, the crowd dancing, and as Friday transitioned to Saturday, Pete Rock took the stage.  The magical touch of Soul Brother #1 was instant. The cheers and applause that greeted this arrival on stage continued throughout his whole set. And while Pete handled the mic, the decks and the crowd, unsuspecting guests began to gather. The musical talent that found their way backstage and on stage to watch him and partake in the NIGHTLIFE “May Birthday Celebration” was quite noteworthy. DJ Dez (Slum Village), Chali2na (Jurassic 5), DJ NuMark (Jurassic 5), DJ Dummy (Common), Madlib, OhNo, MED, Frank Nitty (Frank N Dank), Dudley Perkins, Dan Dalton (original creator of NIGHTLIFE), Houseshoes, Illa J, Nonstop,  and many more stopped by to say hello, give a birthday shout out, and enjoy a drink or two while nodding their heads in approval to the beats they heard. 

 

 

Here’s the first of a few exclusive video clips of the evening’s events. From sets with J.Rocc and Babu to Pete Rock and the two “Rocks/Roccs” (J.Rocc and Pete Rock) working it out on the one’s and two’s.
