This Saturday: East Coast VS West Coast

Friday, December 11th, 2009

It’s been a rivalry that has spanned through the decades. The East VS The West. While the East found an early boom in the development and structure of America, the West took its sweet, sweet, time (they were busy counting all their gold.) The East boasts “cultural superiority,” due to there proximity to Europe, and the West boasts tans year round. Tupac VS Biggie, Pizzas VS Tacos, Michelin Stars VS… umm, we’ll get back to you.. And this weekend, they go head to head once more.

For those on the Washington, D.C. area this Saturday, that’s on the East Coast to the geographically challenged, VTech brings you Damian Marley and Nas at National Geographic Live.

And for the LA lovers, VTech presents the 4-year Anniversary Celebration of the notorious screen shirt printing team, HIT+RUN at Repeat Offender with Dam Funk, Nobody, Gaslamp Killer, and tons more.

So what does one do…? Remember that the East coast is three hours ahead, so once you’re done with Damian Marley and Nas at National Geographic Live, hop on a plane and you’ll be in town to party the night away with H+R. Trust me, it’ll be worth it.

The video, a reflection of our current economic times, shows Ian teaching the band full of struggling artists how to cook a holiday meal on the cheap. Maybe you’ll try the recipe out yourself over the holidays and let us know how it works out.

“Give Me That Brass…”

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

From the people who brought you Karriem Riggins’ “Tergiversation,” Bilal’s “Levels,” and more – MOCHILLA does not disappoint. On this exclusive video for The Sounds of VTech, the Hypnotic Brass Ensemble, teamed up with Miguel Atwood-Ferguson on viola, who wrote an arrangement specifically for them of the song “Scrabble”.  It is a song that influenced hip-hop producer J. Dilla.  Hypnotic rehearsed with Miguel that afternoon and the sold out and enthusiastic crowd of music lovers that packed their way into the Echoplex for this special show and were not disappointed at the magic they witnessed…. Exclusive music, top quality sound, stunning performance.

“We want  brass! Give me some brass. I need that brass. Baby now give me that brass!”   -Aloe Blacc
