Top Friend Party this Saturday @ Cafe King “The brawl to settle it all”

After a couple of amazing Top friend parties this year we are back this next Saturday with no lineup confusion but me and Not:fx to get down to buisness and bang out the latest tunes in blogland. from Kwaito, koduro, electronic bargaining, bedroom pressure, reggae anthems, straight tech edge tunes, hip hop and so forth to plain old bangers – this one is intended to be a clash like the flyer implies, which was designed by our grafix department :-)))) while we were having a pint much to much… keeping the tradition of having the dumbest flyers in town (which only the digital natives fully understand and appreciate) Top Friend is back this Saturday with some unfinished business. Brap

join the Facebook Event “Top Friend Party @ Cafe king Sat May 30th” here.

Here is a tune for ya:

on thursday: Topfriend Special in Munich

I’m fuckin in! On thursday we’ll have a little short term Topfriend Special at our favourite drinking spot – Cafe King. Everybody who joined us at our last Top Friend date at Cafe King knows that they have managed to install a decent dancefloor in the back with a new sound system and we are happy to offer you some off dates there every now and then. DJ duties are up to Schu who was hiding in the studio for the last months & your favourite neighbour NotFx. The next day will be a holiday + entry fee is only €4 so no need to argue! Join us on facebook.

Here is my favourite tune at present by UK’s De Tropix who belong to M.I.A. clout but you can tell that anyway. Check them on myspace.

new YUM YUM Munich coming up, this Friday May 1st

So the only YUM YUM Munich in May is coming up already next Friday. Now you know we have been packed the last couple of times and had to turn down several people but we hope you stick with us until we have found a decent alternative for a second date in the month.

This time the main room will be run by Max Mausser & Not:fx, since Chrome is on a trip to Asia again. The second floor will be holding a little urban africa focused special with my soundsystem companion Georg of Daladala Soundz and YUM YUM friend Roche Dadier.

Join the facebook event and give us a shout.

Expect the top tunes for may to be online by the end of the week.

Here’s a nice warm up tune for you:

You all remember Eleven when he and the rest of the RUB guys visited YUM YUM last year, and Dj Eli Escobar is no stranger to music lovers everywhere. The Ruba re ultimately the american counterpart to YUM YUM and Eli is the guy who does excellent remixes, edits for diplo, puts out releases on hollertronix, money lotion.

Eli Escobars blog – which is one of the favoured dj blogs worldwide and i really cant stress enough how good this guy is as a dj. Dj Elevens website – and his RUB Radio show on Brooklyn Radio.

For his stepvisit to Europe Joe came up with a special mixtape for us: Feel free to grab DJ Eleven’s European Vacation Mix via his website (direct link). Only for a limited time. Tracklist after the jump!

here are some of Elis and Elevens tracks, needless to say that you will know their tracks for a lot of them have been YUM YUM favourites for the longest:

YUM YUM with DJ Eleven (The RUB) @ 100Meister Sat 18th

Join the Facebook event!

It’s already been a year since we had The RUB playing at YUM YUM on their European tour ’08. Back then Joe, Cosmo, Andre and I developed that crazy pasta sandwich franchise thing which we thought would be huge by now. Unfortunately we got caught up in lawyer madness and heavy couching and therefor everybody’s still djing. So grab your dancing shoes and bring a friend when DJ Eleven and myself deliver you the latest goods from N.Y. and in YUM YUM sound at the well known 100Meister on Sat 18th. Doors will be open by 11PM sharp but my advice would be to be an early bird so you’re sure to get in.

Feel free to grab DJ Eleven’s European Vacation Mix via his website (direct link). Only for a limited time. Tracklist after the jump!

ps: In case you’re sick of Lady Gaga’s Pokerface – this could be just the right thing for you!
