Hey friends! It's xjordanary here with some free fresh new jams for your eager ears! I feel it's high time to quit being such a perfectionist hoarder of the music I create, and give as much back to all my beautiful friends and family as I can. This is the culmination of the last few creative months in one 34 minute mix of all original tunes composed by yours truly.
I hope you all enjoy, and have a hot n sunny fun summer!
Mucho Amor,
xjordanary

DETAILS: Sunset Promotions and the Fringe, the team that has brought you such epic parties as “Freaksgiving” and the “Icebreakers Ball” team up again for their third annual twisted take on the annual Mexican holiday . It’s “FREQO DE MAYO 2008”at its new location, Temple Nightclub with an all-star cast of future world breaks, Latin, house, electro and mashups that includes tech-hop legend Tipper. NYC world-breakbeat pioneer Sabo (Sol Selectas-Turntables on the Hudson) will update the Latin sound while Toronto’s Phat Conductor and LA’s Ground Control provide a treatise on breakbeat. Midtempo acid crunk will throb its way in through Antennae and Mozaic. And for the first time ever, the entire Fringe DJ posse will appear under one roof, including electro kidz Absurge and Victor Vega, eclectic beatslingers Mycho Cocoa, Dylan “BLVD” Cahill and funk-mash-breaks killers Tim Dietz, Big Dolla, and MoPo.

A description of Tipper ? What's the point? He never says a word anyway. Nobody knows anything about him, apart from his music. So how do we find out about this nearly translucent geezer from England? Go see him at a show and he'll be standing on stage looking half-bored, not moving nearly fast enough to be scratching like that, while he blows the speaker cones to pieces and leaves everyone in the crowd standing around with their jaws dropped. Try to catch up with him after his set and he's already gone back to the hotel for sleepy time. Hype and fluff about who he is and where he's been and what he's all about doesn't do justice to his compositions or the impact they make on those who hear it. So, we'll probably never know anything about him, apart from his music, and if you listen closely enough over time he hopes you'll understand everything he is trying to say.

The Phat Conductor is one of Canada's leading underground exports, holding it down since 1995 with gigs as far as Switzerland, the U.K, Burning Man, NY and the legendary Shambhala Music Festival in the rainforests on British Columbia. His diverse style covers all genres from Electro House, Techno, breakbeat, Hip-Hop, Dancehall, DnB & IDM/Glitch. No matter what the venue, The Phat Conductor can suit his style to the crowd and keep your dancefloor rocking. Throw loads of original tunes and the fact that he works with live video into the mix and you have a sure fire crowd pleaser.

Sabo production in the last four years has gained international recognition and brought him to DJ in countries like Brazil, Spain, Dominican Republic, Austria, Mexico, and Kosovo, as well as various cities in the US. He has six EP releases on his own label Sol*Selectas, two 12" releases on Wonderwheel Recordings, and a full length album on the way in '08 for Irma Records in Italy, with production partner Zeb. From Brazilian to Afrobeat, Disco to Reggae, Hip Hop to Dub, Miami Bass to House, Latin to Techno, Sabo is known to be locked into each style as if it were the only thing he's been spinning for the past 10 years, and he flows seamlessly from one genre to the next. He's been a special guest at Turntables on the Hudson parties for the last 5 years, is an instructor at the Scratch DJ Academy, and was nominated to URB magazine's Annual 'Next 100' in 2006.

MoPo (Motionpotion) is one of the country’s foremost purveyors of reinvented roots music, from nufunk to rocktronica to tech hop, MoPo takes the stuff you know and supercharges it. AnTenNae (Get Freaky) is an underground hero for his embrace of new styles including his own signature “acid crunk” style. Mozaic (Raindance) has long been known as a premier purveyor of cutting edge eclectic electronica. Ground Control has quietly pushed himself to the forefront of LA’s underground breakbeat scene. Victor Vega and Absurge are the Fringe crew’s resident electro and minimal experts, Big Dolla and Tim Dietz hold down the funk, breaks and mashups, while Mycho Cocoa and Dylan Cahill (drummer for local power trio BLVD) simply can’t be categorized. The Fringe is a collective of nearly 100 people dedicated to pushing evolutionary music on an unsuspecting public. For three years straight, the Fringe has hosted marathon soundsessions at the Burning Man Festival and has hosted numerous parties in the Bay Area to support their artistic habits. Fringe painters perform at most events and have shown off their work at various local art shows.

it's ON!

2008-02-28T08:57:10Z

ok....so....i feel a love/hate relationship with the parties we do at 1015 folsom. we bring a great crowd, but are constantly having to defend our "right" to be there. we've even had our room shut down and BLVD's set cut short because no one was in the main room at get freaky...they were having too much fun in our room. so adam ohana shut our room down! so it appears to me that the fringe has gotten served in the past and that we have served 1015 folsom back....so really.....by that rationale......it is clearly ON!

so i am writing to appeal to you folks to come on out in spades to the pirates vs. clowns party this friday at 1015. come out and punch a clown or a pirate. come out and see mutaytor and uberzone AND the bassbin twins. but mainly...come on out and pack the basement and show 1015 folsom who you really came to see.

the dark knights of the fringe will be kicking it down in the basement:

absurge
tim dietz
victor vega

bill and robbie will be playing with bootie and mutaytor respectively...so now the other "boys" in the fringe (i personally prefer the name "dark knights", don't you?) have to show the big baddies at 1015 the reason why nobody puts baby in the corner.

so, please kids. come out and play! come out and give serge birthday spankings! come out and tell adam ohana that the fringe rules! whatever the reason, it would be super special awesometacular to see you all there on friday!

kisses,
n

WHAT: 3rd Annual Funksgiving Party at Mighty, featuring Torpedo Boyz
WHO: Torpedo Boyz (www.torpedoboyz.com – Berlin) Romanowski (Trouser Trout Records, www.romanowski45.com), Motion Potion (www.myspace.com/motionpotion), Malarkey (Juke Joint), Tal Klein (www.djtalklein.com), Fred Funk (the Brass Tax), Victor Vega (www.myspace.com/victorvegamusic), Big$Bill (the Fringe), Tim Dietz (the Fringe)
LIVE ART: The painters of the Fringe Arts Collective
WHEN: Thanksgiving-Eve, Wednesday, November 21, 2007 | Doors at 10pm
WHERE: MIGHTY | 119 Utah St @ 15th | 415.626.7001
GENERAL INFO: www.sunsetpromotions.net, http://mightybreaks.com
PRESS INFO: Robert Kowal / rob@sffunk.com / 415-971-4527
TICKETS: $12 adv.at www.sunsettickets.com. $15 at the door
DISCOUNT RSVP: $10 at the door before 11pm with RSVP at Going.com

DETAILS: Sunset Promotions & the Fringe Arts Collective present the third annual "Funksgiving" churning up an appetite for turkey with some of the funkiest djs in the world.

This year we welcome Berlin producer Kentastic, whose releases under the moniker "Torpedo Boyz" have helped blur the lines between breakbeat, rock and pop. Their incredibly funky uptempo compositions combine elements of rock, house, disco, and comedy into dance music that is quite simply unique. Torpedo Boyz have drawn international acclaim for their 2007 release “Headache Music” with its sardonic raps about tweakers at bars, and the need for better drumming. This snarky humorous edge makes them seem almost like the European version of James Murphy and LCD Soundsystem or a less evil Evil 9. Torpedo Boyz will headline a killer night of nufunk, breaks, funk and disco at your favorite danceclub and mine, Mighty.

What better to add to some German Nufunk, than a bit of Swiss Nufunk, in the form of San Francisco underground hero Romanowski. The stuntman, nudist, disk-jockey, collage artist, sneaker painter, and CEO of Trouser Trout records has been dropping funky beats in San Francisco for the better part of 15 years. And though his releases run the gamut from nufunk, organic breaks, to fresh dancehall to Bollywood beats, Romanowski’s heart and soul is in the funk. There are few in the Bay Area with a fatter collection of juicy funk 45’s and the skill to link them together.

Another darling of the SF funkerground DJ Tal Klein is celebrating the release of his 3 nufunk E.Ps by touring the US, Canada and England. One of the most underrated Djs in the city, Tal is an expert at layering the modern beats with oldschool themes. Ditto that with Motion Potion, a wildcard if there ever was one, and Malarkey, who’s weekly Juke Joint parties have kept the funk alive in the North Bay. Fred Funk is a tech-breaks wizard who has long plied his trade as a member of the Brass Tax crew. Tim Dietz is quickly gaining local notice for his astute grasp of various formats of breakbeat while Victor Vega has seen similar attention for his handle on electro and minimal house. Big$Bill is an eclecticist if there ever was one, dropping mashups, breaks, and hip hop and always rocking the party.

Adding some culture to the counterculture is the goal of the Fringe Arts Collective, and they will be represented by numerous live painters and fine artists who will ply their trade to the greasy beats thrown down by the selectionists.

Mighty Saturday 11/10 - Ardent, a Fringe charity event w/an All Female Lineup!

2007-11-08T20:55:33Z

Pam the Funkstress of the Coup and Goddess Alchemy Project headline all-female “Ardent”party
Female artistic expression celebrated by the Glitch Mob’s Ana Sia, Dubmission’s DJ Sep and breakslingers J9, Shooey, Melyss and Tamo plus live painting by the ladies of the Fringe Arts Collective

WHAT: Ardent party featuring Pam the Funkstress & Goddess Alchemy Project
WHO: Pam the Funkstress (the Coup myspace.com/pamthefunkstress) Goddess Alchemy Project (live 4-piece hip hop – myspace.com/goddessalchemyproject) DJ Sep (dubmissionsf.com) Ana Sia (Thje Glitch Mob - myspace.com/ana_sia) Melyss (SisterSF), Tamo & J9 (Angels of Bass), Shooey (InDeep),
WHEN: Saturday, November 10, 2007 | Doors at 10pm
WHERE: MIGHTY | 119 Utah St @ 15th | 415.626.7001
GENERAL INFO: www.sunsetpromotions.net, mightybreaks.com
PRESS INFO: Robert Kowal / rob@sffunk.com / 415-971-4527
TICKETS: $10 adv.at www.sunsettickets.com. $12 at the door before 11pm

DETAILS: The ladies of the Fringe Arts Collective have spent the past 3 years “bringing culture to the counterculture” through dance, and fine art. On November 10, ladies curate the stage and the decks as well, celebrating the eclectic and the electric passionate expression of women. The front room will feature hip hop and world soul with the Coup’s resident beatslinger Pam the Funkstress and live hip hop ensemble Goddess Alchemy Project, Dub Mission diva DJ Sep and Glitchmob maven Ana Sia The lounge features banging electronic breaks and house with 4 queens of the SF underground: J9, Shooey, Tamo and Melyss.

As one of the true female dj pioneers, the hip hop community has embraced Pam the Funkstress for more than a decade as a club dj, and a performing artist. Known for cuttin the wax with more than just her hands, she has been asked to grace the opening stage for the elite in rap music from KRS 1 to DJ Kool to Grandmaster Flash. After stints with rap groups Female Funk, and the Funklab Allstars,(where she earned the name “The Funkstress”) she emerged with Oakland’s seminal political rap group the Coup on their debut album “Kill my Landlord” in 1993. Since then, she has backed one of this crucial hip hop on albums like “Genocide”, “Juice”, “Steal this Album” and the controversial masterpiece “Party Music”. Known as “the Party Slapper” for her ability to shock any crowd into a state of collective frenzy, Pam is among the most skilled and tasteful club Djs in the United States.

Bringing forth a timeless science through a live, lyrical experience of “more than one sista on the mic at a time”… this crew gives voice to the potent medicine of Goddess Alchemy rising. In collaboration with many artists and producers, Goddess Alchemy’s sound alchemizes a fresh, feminine flavor by integrating elements of underground hip hop, world accents, spoken word flows, and soulful melodics. Combine this with ancient texts, quantum physics, ancestral roots, multi-dimensional symbology, and an all-female cipher… the result to this equation is a new, musical science they call “Open Source Soul Floetics”.

For more than 10 years DJ Sep has educated and elevated Bay Area music fans with her long-running Elbo Room Sunday night throwdown Dub Mission and her KPFA radio show “Off the Beaten Path”. The mistress of a thousand genres, Sep is best known for weaving a coherent flow from the threads of them all. Ana Sia is a relatively new name on the Bay Area scene, but the Glitch Mob’s resident diva has been drawing raves for her seamless blend of electronic beats and hip hop tempo and themes. Though known as the “Angels of Bass” Tamo and J9 deal in electronic devilry with bags full of breakbeats and dirty house. With a background in instrumental music, Melyss chooses to drop electronic beats for the SisterSF and Opulent Temple crews. Among the most ebullient, infectious and joyous Djs in San Francisco, Shooey is known for jubilant house and dirty electro, which she unveils with the Indeep crew. For 3 years, the Fringe Arts Collective has striven to bring “culture to the counterculture” and the ladies of that crew have doen more than their part, producing over 50 original pieces of fine art, developed live at the collective’s events. Join them on November 10 as they create yet a few more.

Ted's BM Pics on Flickr

2007-10-27T20:21:23Z

from 2005 and 2006

I got a pro account because I also am putting all my backpacking pictures up there too and i'm lazy and don't feel like editing the sets and this way I can just put all my pictures up and let you sift thru them

eventually I'll get around to editing and putting in captions & stuff, but there's 2600 pics, with more to come (I haven't even put up Costa Rica or Kauai or Butano or Brazil or Big Sur!), so don't hold your breath.

www.flickr.com and then I think you type in tedschram in a search box somewhere, I really don't even know what the URL is for my sets, but they can't be too hard to find . . .

Wanna Labradoodle?

2007-08-08T20:00:19Z

Hey all,

So, my dad bread his labradoodle and now has 10 adorable puppies for sale (actually only 7 for sale as we are getting one, my bro is getting one and one has already been spoken for). Anyway, does anyone know anyone who's in the market for a labradoodle puppy? They are F1B labradoodles which means they rock!! Seriously, they are supposed to be the smartest dogs out there and no shedding either.

Check out www.andersonlabradoodles.com

We've selected Martin for our puppy - he is SOOOOO CUTE!

REMIDER: ALL_HANDS @ GOLD CANE 2Nite 8pm

2007-07-18T21:16:31Z

Tonight is the night for the whole damn crew to gather again
It has been a super amazing, super awesome year for the Fringe
and still the very best of what we do is happening real soon.

The playa is near. The playa is near....
Let talk details...
Tonight - Wed July 18th: 8pm @ the Gold Cane (on Haight St.)

Our Agenda at will include:

buying each other alcoholic beverages
working with Red Nosers
Camping with clowns
humongous big top plans.
hanging our painters
making disturbing do-it-yourself arcade fun
Signage and posters with blinky lights
construction and scheduleing of audio mayhem
plans on getting loaded
and any other questions you may have about the freak show.

Yes it is on this year in a big way.
and on top of it and because of our success over the year
we are on track for a year of more playa, less work
we are going to be greener than we've ever been.
We are going to be bumping bigger and badder than even I thought we could.

Many of you know that the Fringe is not providing amenities for
campers this year... however,
this is because we have partnered up with the Red Nose District. They have
a better set up, an organized system and folks who know how to run a
better camp.

Hot water showers,
Camp only portapotties!,
a real dinner/food program menus by real chefs and shit!),
a trash system and super nice folks
volunteers to make it happen. (Make sure you thank them profusely on the playa.)
and plenty of space to sprawl your homestyle on the playa

Becuase The Fringe is not focused on our camping situation The Fringe core
crew is spending all of our energy on the spectable we are about to
unleash. 3 circuses, top nacho bass dropping acts, performers flying
thu the air,, a dope placement (just off esplande) and big clear sound
that will rock the white off the playa.

We do hope you are available to join us this year. If not still come
down and get blotto with your Fringe peeps.

If you are bringing other folks (outside the Fringe) with you to the playa,
please pass this message on to them. We will probably only have one
more gathering (other than the Icey show) before we are on the playa.
This is a very important meeting please be there. Pretty please..

If you can't make the meeting and plan on camping in the Red Nose District.
Sign up now as we are going to max out soon. (Camp size limited to 200)

Playa plans & beyond

2007-07-11T17:00:37Z

Hey Fringetastic Peeps!

your Fringe crew has been meeting about our playa plans this year and
are super excited about what we're going to accomplish at burning man
this year. we wanted to share the plans, the most current news, and
the excitement we have about our collaborations for our burn.

first off, The Fringe is assimilating, becoming one with, and otherwise
partnering up with The RedNose District in more ways than we thought.
in order to bring out a REALLY kick-ass sound system and have the money
we need to do some really exciting painting performance projects (say
THAT three times fast!), The Fringe has decided to combine forces
with RedNose, so the stand-alone Fringe theme camp on the playa has
disappeared this year...but there WILL be FRINGE PARTIES! and The
RedNose District camp, (located at 9:30 & A St) is welcoming our Fringe
community to pitch camp with 'em, as that's right where our sound system
will be located & our musicians bumping the beats on Thursday & Saturday
nites this year! If you're wondering how green it'll be, we're using
biodiesel
generated power to pump our evolutionary music out to the playa this round.

so, what does that mean for you? well, if you want to still have a
really great community of folks & a larger participant camp experience,
then join up with RedNose--they are pulling out all the stops to provide
a really plush camp experience. they even have a deluxe meal plan
at $8/day & VEGAN too, for crying out loud! who knew clowns could
be so cool? well, we did! Sign-up here:

http://www.rednosedistrict.org/signup.htm
(choose "The Fringe" as your affiliation)

...and what about folks who DON'T want the full theme camp experience?
so, 1 block away from the RedNose (corner of 9:30 & A St.) will be a
non-theme area where the early birds will make a nest for the rest to
congeal & burn however you feel. there won't be any coordinated
camping efforts (read as: obligations!), total self-sufficient style of
living.
If that appeals to you, grab your 'mates and head there (earlier the better,
as space will run out). as soon as the BRC '07 map is published,
we'll send a follow-up note with a PDF showing exactly where that spot
will be--stay tuned Fringe folk...

so this year on the playa is truly going to be something that we have
always wanted, but haven't been able to obtain which is: LESS WORK!
MORE FUN! we're going to throw some amazing and special parties this
year. if you want to be a part of the sound production or want to help that
any way, please contact MoPo & BigDollaBill to talk about how to pull
this off as an activated community! there are plenty of needs with our
parties and with RedNose...so there are lots of opportunities to help out!

thanks everyone for your continued support, love, and vibe--let's make
this a really great burn for ourselves and each other!

Imminent Fringe Fun:

7/14 this saturday @ Mighty
PLANET OF THE DRUMS
The Fringe teams up with LowPro Lounge to bring out some epic drum & bass

THE FRINGE BM2007- Stop spreading all those rumors

2007-06-19T23:16:21Z

ok folks enough with the rumors..

OK the rumor about me in court, well er..
um... well that rumor is true I'm sitting in court right now.
Not what you think.
are you really thinking that?.. well your wrong.
I got selected for jury Duty. I must be the standard by how they pick
upstanding citizens cuz they picked me first or our government has no
idea what they are doing.
Hey, Stoners have rights too.. don't they?

Freddys dead! Not us.
The Fringe is alive and doing quite well. very well indeed. Those
rumors are being spread by folks who obviously have not been hangin
out at out events. From our humble beginnings at camp Relativity, to
making Sparky happen, to playing regularly at Get Freaky and more. And
damn! Our DJs have been cranking out top nacho sets at parties
like Bootie, Mighty Breaks, Bohemian Carnival and more. And our own
events have been bigger and better. Damn it is incredible what such a
diverse group of creative folks have accomplished. And how much fun
have weve been having with all y'all? immeasurable and priceless. So
here we go, once again we make plans to exodus the default world to
venture into our home on the playa. Hold on tight this ride will be a
zany one.

Oh and about the rumor that
"The Fringe is nothing but a bunch of clowns" er..well

It is partially true sort of. Let me esxplane, Lucy. This year the
Fringe core (door,decor,performers, painters & DJs,) decided they
wanted to clown around this year. We were approached by clowns and we
decided to runaway to burning man with them. There ain't no stopping
us. With all the big fat ruckus about the green theme this year we
are seeing red. We now are joining forces with the red side. Listen,
Luke Skywalker let me explain. no! I am not your daddy! no really.
Your daddy has a kick stand and..Opps sorry.... getting back to
writing this email. Where was ?! Oh Yeah! The Fringe is running away
with the circus. Lions Tigers and Clowns oh my! This year the master
plan for the Fringe is to rub noses with the bohemian carnivalists.
You nose, the clowns in the Red Nose District. those guys. Together we
are plotting and scheming to go home for a full week of 3-ring
performances, musical mayhem, consolation prizes under a real big
top tent.

What the fuck does that mean?
It means Biodesel powered, Bigger sound, bigger hair-raising
performances, big booger pickin good times I tell ya. No wood work or
nails when your hammered. Less toil, More soil your trousers fun.
This year requires you to be the greenest you can be in your hotest
camouflage clown suit. no dress code required. but if you are a man I
don't recommend wearing only socks and sandals when riding your bike.
Ever heard the rumors of crotch rautch and of the real danger of
getting it caught in the chain? Do you want to explain when your
kids ask you where they came from as: Well when uncle "enter your BBF
playa name" picked you up off the playa, put you on ice until we
could find a turkey baster and...and I am getting a bit off subject.
sorry....

So what does this all this circus moop mean right now?
Rumor is as I know it-- We are going to be behind the RND next to the
Furniture Rally camp 3 blocks back from the Esplanade. We are going to
be physically and mentally smaller camp this year by our general camp
requests and preferences. The end result is as many of you requested
is much less work and more playa. We look forward to sharing a more
intimate Fringe family experience without parental controls on the
playa. This year The Fringe raised a bit of money but we using almost
all of it on a wig flipping sound system. The reality is we do not
have the funds to support much more than that. But hear this the
Fringe is going to sound amazing this year. No Doubt.

Namaste but nada nunca?
The rumor about us not hosting Hamsa Lila and Albino this year are
true. We love their music... But We are giving priority to acts that
have helped us with our fundraising instead. We are currently talking
with the bigger names that have performed at our events this year. If
you were there you know how much bigger that is. We are focusing all
our efforts on two mind blowing nights dripping in bass, mutant acts
and Fringe flavored fun. Stay tuned. Our lineup this year will blow
your mind like a kazoo.

"I heard the fringe is no longer a huge burning man camp"?
The Fringe has been very lenient in years past of hosting large
numbers of campers who do not participate in our efforts at all. This
year we do not have the inclination, manpower and funds to continue
this practice. And it seems like these non-contributing folks are
also the ones who leave their traces for the rest of us to pick up at
the end of a very long week. After serious thought and for reasons of
sanity we are only accepting a limited number of campers this year.
Folks who have worked the door, decor, performed or have camped with
us before are already in line. Further priority will go to the folks
who have help out during the rest of the year. If you are bringing a
friend you will be 100% responsible for them. It is not that we don't
like lazy drugged out freaks we just want more time to be lazy drugged
out freaks by not having to deal with their moop. If this is your year
to bring 20 sexy underwear dropping freaks. You should camp near to us
but not with us. We will drop our laundry at your camp for a change.

The Fringe is not providing all-camper resources this year. We will
all need to work together to be really self sufficient. In a Green
themed year we should do the very best we can. At this point most of
us are playa verterans and we got the skills pretty locked down. No
poles & ropes this year, I recommend getting your Easy-up on. Possible
showers. No communal kitchen. Not sure if we are raising a dome. There
are also rumors of a Friends of the Fringe camp placed very closeby.
This makes things easier on the playa but requires a bit more planning
from each of us ahead of time. Less means more somewhere else.

Can Ompaloompmaas participate?
The Fringe is an equal opportunity exploiter. and we are hoping to do
our part as such. We are not building anything this year but our efforts are still
needed in a very big top way. If you have not stepped up to help out
as of yet here is your chance.

We are assmebling crews for the following:

- Truck loading, before and AFTER (Kelly and Ryan unloaded the big
truck by themselves last year. I applaud them and ask the rest of you
WTF?)

- To raise and decor the big top, early arrivals only. Let me know ASAP if you
can be there then. It can be done with a beer in your hand. If you
know how to use a ratchet strap please inquire.

- Set up power/sound system/stage inside big top. and run sound during
our big nights. We are scheduled to do two big nights of entertainment
Thursday and Saturday. The RND is doing circus shows on Wednesday
and Friday. We are also talking about working together to host late
afternoon happy hours under to cool of the big top.

- Painters, decorists, dancers, projectionists and performers if you
are putting something together for the playa, please put your ideas in
an email and send your ideas to Robbie and myself ASAP. We need this
info to coordinate with the RND performers and scheduling. Give us
details and bribes.

- Bring the big top down- late campers only. Let me know ASAP if you
can be there.

If you are interested and able to help please make yourself known.

This years theme:
Its about being green. Lets run with that idea and leave it smoking.

Massive all-hands Fringe camp meeting is coming soon. I will let you
know when I know more.

And to all you folks that have kept the momenteum going
Thank You.
Thank you.
Thank You.

Get FREAKY this friday with Cut Chemist, Bassnectar, and the FRINGE

2007-05-31T18:59:19Z

<{(Copied from the honorable Bill Barany who said it better than anyone...)}>

Ok my gourd, my people, We are not messing around this time. If you
are not going to be at 1015 Folsom this Friday you are going to
forever listen to the rest of the us blah blah blah about how amazing
this once in a lifetime event was for eternity.

Blah blah blah X eternity +1 = I am not kidding. Not one bit.

As summer season comes crashing in at light speed the Fringe has been
asked to help fuel the marvelous musical mayhem at 1015 Folsom this
Friday @ Get Freaky. Promoter Adam Ohana has once again amassed an
unbelievable lineup of performers that crosses a wide spectrum of
music. The 4 room musical line up for this show is simply beyond
insane. The freaks will be out in force.

Early arrival is very highly recommended!! Purchase your tickets
yesterday @ www.an-ten-nae.net/

Hold your butt cheeks together for this one. NO! I am not kidding.

Squeeze them tight for this:

Get Freaky @ 1015 Folsom

Friday June 1, 2007

Featuring:

Cut Chemist
www.cutchemist.com
Cut Chemist spent 12 years as a DJ and producer for LA hip-hop dynamos
Jurassic 5, five years playing the turntables-as-a-beautiful
instrument backing up the Grammy-winning Latin alternative band
Ozomatli, and several years releasing highly bootlegged mixtapes (such
as his Brain Freeze Original Soundtrack collaboration with DJ Shadow
in 1999). Throughout it all, he's found the time to helm his own
recurring club nights in Los Angeles. As an in-demand DJ that has
always tried to further his craft as a producer, Cut Chemist has had
to juggle a lot more than beats over the years. You might have also
heard his track "The Audience is Listening" in recent commercials for
the Ipod Nano. Cut Chemist will be breaking out all the gear for this
special live performance, which will include video mixing. Cut Chemist
goes on at midnight!

Bassnectar/ (DJ Lorin)

animals, all of you are animals and freaks

2007-05-22T16:25:46Z

In the whole universe on this little planet next to an average sun is a little city that puts on a simple 7 mile race.
It must be a difficult task to complete because, I didn’t finish the race either.

And I am shocked with you people
Appropriately, San Francisco was named after Saint Francis the patron saint of animals
You folks are nothing but a bunch of animals!

I could tell by the ears, fur, bushy tails and bright eyes
Hey sweaty naked guy running along side the hooter girls,
your ugly baby in the stroller looks like a fat cabbage patch keg of beer.
That missing kid, Waldo is drunk wandering the city with girls in black leather
I saw Elvis kissing Santa Claus under a fake coconut tree
Gene Simmons was running with the devil. And she is bringing sexy back.
Zombie nuns, muffins, lifeguards and Pacman. Oh my you make me blush.
I wonder if those guys fishing caught any of those salmon swimming downstream.
I wonder who won the shopping cart race category
Oh and, you dropped your cup and I’m going to drop them off at your doorstep next year.
Were the Kenyans blurry, or did someone spike my orange juice
Wonder how those trees in the panhandle got so big? Answer: beer urine
San Francis, you have truly blessed SF with a huge diversity of party animals.
Good golly miss molly you folks are a bunch of freaks,

I’m in love with all of you. I love the city and the vibe here.
Where else could an entire city pour out into the street all in the name of fun.

Thank you San Francisco

You guys rock

Thank You for such a crazy weekend

2007-05-15T19:29:44Z

Thank You Thank You Thank you.

Damn that was one of the best Fringe powered weekends in a long time. Thank you fringe core for pulling it all together.

Freqo de Bassnectar night was awesome and... Super duper sets from Soulsalaam, Victor and Tim.

The Bootie party with the Wii wielding DJs was even crazier. We should look into getting those guys on the playa they are straight out of Modesto of all places.. Blew my mind.

DETAILS: Sunset Promotions and the Fringe, the team that has brought you such epic parties as “Freaksgiving” and the “Icebreakers Ball” team up again for their second annual twisted take on the annual Mexican holiday – it’s “FREQO DE MAYO”. Featuring 3 soundsystems and an all-star cast of future world breaks, Latin, house and hip hop including Bassnectar (DJ Lorin), and some of the local future-world music crop including Soulsalaam (Future Juju), Vanka (Misturada), El Papachango (El Circo), and Jayo & Kevin Wardell (Seismic). The more modern funky breakbeats will be provided by underground beatslingers, Motion Potion (the Fringe), Evinrude (Space Cowboys) and residents Mycho, Cocoa, Victor Vega and Tim Dietz. Plus visual vibes will be provided by Kaia Jacobi and the Fringe Collective painters, Nicole Andris, Trav Koller and Micah Circe .

For the last decade, Lorin Ashton has helped develop the North American underground dance music scene. From touring full time as a DJ (an average of 125 shows per year), to his production & remixing under the alias Bassnectar, he has amassed a dedicated fan base, crossing over from hip hop to electronica to breakbeat to ragga/dub to the jam band scene and the greater Burningman Scene. In January, Bassnectar was voted the #1 DJ in the Bay Area in the prestigious “Nitevibe Dreamteam” poll (www.nitevibe.com).

DJ, producer and percussionist, Soulsalaam (soulsalaam.com) has thrilled audiences from the Bay to Brazil with his future-world breaks, and live conga beats. Able to create, play the freshest African, Brazillian and Latin styles, then augment them with live percussion, Soulsalaam always pushes a dance club over the edge. The same dynamic is brought by Seismic duo Jaio & Kevin Wardell, who rock Latin beats with live percussion. For that matter, no one has explored the future of Latin music in the Bay Area more than DJ Vanka whose long-running Thursday night Misturada party is a fixture in the local world music scene. Ditto El Papachango, the El Circo regular known for merging Latin beats with modern breaks.

Adding to the world music mix will be some of the underground’s future-music talent. Motion Potion, “the Swiss army DJ” is best known for his embrace of the local funk scene, but recently has been seen performing live with Parliament-Funkadelic and the Mutaytor. Evinrude is a regular with the breakbeat driven Space Cowboys crew. Mycho Cocoa has garnered a superb reputation as a top beatslinger in styles as diverse as Arabic breaks, Space Hop, and Latin DnB. Like the rest of the Fringe DJ’s Victor Vega’s tastes run the gamut, but the NYC native is best known for his superior skills with Latin house and breakbeats. A crusader trying to bring underground hip hop back to underground parties, Billete is a member of the Fringe collective. Kaia (the Fringe): Beginning with homegrown imagery, Kaia has evolved her visual palette with STS9, Anon Salon, Moontribe, Traveling Corn, and other independent productions to bring an E-motion-al graphic eXplosion to an Intelligent Dance party near you.

2007-05-10T20:12:33Z

It is that time of year. Freaks unite and hold it high.
Sunset Promotions and The Fringe present
Another zesty fiesta of musical flavor to celebrate

Freqo – de – Mayo

Amigos, This year we did not hold back on the hot stuff.

Bassnectar (Bassnectar.net/ DJ Lorin):
For the last decade, Lorin Ashton has helped develop the face North American underground dance music scene. From touring full time as a DJ (an average of 125 shows per year!!), to his production & remixing under the alias Bassnectar, he has amassed a dedicated fan base. His shows are a tweaking bumping mix of hip hop to breakbeat to ragga/dub and everything else works with that whomping bass. Honored in the SF underground and Burning Man scenes as the undisputed "King of the Freaks" as well as being voted the #1 DJ in the Bay Area in the prestigious "Nitevibe Dreamteam" poll. He comes to us at the top of his game with a new album and a recent appearance at Coachella. Let the freq-show begin!

Soulsalaam (Hypnomadic/Future Juju/Soulsalaam.com):
This uber talented DJ, producer and percussionist has thrilled audiences from the Bay to Brazil with his future-world breaks, and live conga beats. Able to create, play the freshest African, Brazilian and Latin styles, and then augment the whole enchilada with live percussion, Soulsalaam is to not be missed in this rare SF performance.

El Papachango (El Circo):
Diego Novoa aka El Papachango grew up in Buenos Aires, Argentina, In 1997, Diego moved to Ashland, Oregon, where he fell in love with the magic of "La Pacha Mama"  (Mother Earth). It was this romance that birthed El Circo, the multimedia production company encompassing performance, music, video, and  fashion. He mixes from a diverse palette of electro, ragga, breaks, and hip-hop, creating a musical journey that has Universal appeal: sassy, playful, suave, and sometimes downright naughty, but always with a spicy Latin flavor.

Motion Potion (The Mutaytor, The Fringe):
"The Swiss army DJ" and voted the "Best DJ for people who hate DJ's" is best known for his embrace of the local funk scene, but recently has been seen performing live with the Mutaytor and battling city hall in support of the local music scene. His mix of everything funky always rocks the party to another level. Viva la Funk!

Jayo & Kevin (Space Cowboys):
This Duo rocks a double serving of super funky Latin house in an amazing mix of DJ and live percussion. Yum!!

DJ Vanka (Misturada):
No one has explored the future of Latin music in the Bay Area more than DJ Vanka whose long-running Thursday night Misturada party is a fixture in the local world music scene.

Mycho Cocoa (The Fringe):
Mycho has garnered a superb reputation as a top beatslinger in styles as diverse as Arabic breaks, and soulful house.

Victor Vega (The Fringe):
Like the rest of the Fringe DJ's this DJ's taste run the gamut, but the latin NYC native is best known for bouncing the Latin house and breakbeats

Tim Dietz
The Fringe’s up and coming prodigy/musical terrorist. He got some sercet musical magic up his sleeve that will make you understand why he is blowing up the dance floor.

Bill Dolla
Is an hip hop old school aficionado and a mash up connoisseur that grew up with the lowrider bumpin beat. His latin set will take you back to the park chillin with your homies and just getting straight up loco.

Ted Schram in Santa Clara on Friday the 13th!!

2007-04-08T20:39:39Z

Wow, Santa Clara on Friday the 13th with Ted, what more could you ask for? And this gives all of you in the South Bay something to do before you flee to either SF or the sanctity of your home entertainment center! And not only that, but it's in a coffeehouse, a real independent coffeehouse, where you can sit and get wired and fidget and have paranoid intellectual spasms about all that Friday the 13th stuff!! Gee, I just dunno how you could pass this up!

extracentric= extra-kickass!

2007-04-04T01:12:40Z

remember the days when we all used to party together? remember the times we used to go to a place where everybody knows you're wierd? let's do it again! i know you know how! i wanna see all the smiling happy fringers kicking ass on the dance floor because i MISS YOU KIDS! so, get yo cute lil self to the 12 galaxies this saturday for a special edition of our fringe monthly: extracentric!

dirty deets (not dirty dietz, well...maybe):

saturday 4/7
12 galaxies
10pm

here's mycho's cute lil tribe blast:

So we're taking the show on the road this month - bringing our monthly throw down down to the Mission district, Mission STreet even , where so many of our people live. Also the site of my first DJ gig with the Fringe, a homecourt favourite venue named after the work of the hardest working jibber-jabbering lunatic (I consider myself a close second, can we get a recount?!) that could only be known as...

12 Gallaxies

Our headliner for the night is a band we could call the STS9 of Memphis, a fantastic blend of live instrumentation and live electronica with PHAT bass and beats, our guests for the night are the Pnuma Trio. www.pnumatrio.com

And on the 1's and 2's we have our local masters of blending up the live, organic sound with the tight and technical rythms, myself Mycho Cocoa, Godfather Motion Potion, and secret weapon Mr. Tim Diez. Our flavours of course range through the breakbeat spectrum, hitting upon the soul, the dub, the hip hop and the garage. and the funk. always the funk!

Are you ready to mix it up a little bit? Myself and the whole crew are really psyched to bring the show down into the Barrio. You can expect all the charm of a Fringe party, certainly live painting by Travis Kohler, Jayme Bertolusi, Deb Codiroli, Nicole Andris, Emily Gibson, and Amy Pitner.

Mo' official info here :
www.fringesf.com/flow/2007...april-7th/
and tickets here :
www.sunsetpromotions.net/evinfo.php

Let's get this place packed and tockin' and see how late we can go - you know that grandmasters at 12G's are OG's and are often kind enough to let it keep rockin' til after hours. No promises, it's in your hands, party peoples!

See you on the dancefloor!
