Oh you know, just another rave in your favorite dim sum restaurant with yours truly and the crew.

RSVP FOR REDUCED ENTRY!!!

We’re back again this month with DJ Ayres, Nick Catchdubs, and Jubilee, ready to throw another neon banger in Chinatown. Not sure what a dim sum rave looks like? It looks a little like this:

The next Flashing Lights party will feature a guest set from Fool’s Gold’s Italian sensation Congorock, who has made a name for himself (alongside countrymen Crookers and Bloody Beetroots) with a fresh take on bass heavy, bleeped-out sounds. Listening to his set is like getting showered by a twisted circus of sounds. His upcoming single “Babylon” has already set the internet ablaze with it’s mystical music video, and this exclusive NYC date on his “More Fire” tour brings all the manic intensity right to your subway stop.

Grab some rave juice and get ready to get obliterated.

My dear friend, who also happens to be a famed photographer, Kareem Black is notorious for living life to the fullest. As one of his many partners-in-crime I’m happy to co-sign that reputation and try to keep up with him when I can.  I often see Kareem whip out his little hand held camera and snap impromptu photos when I least expect it. I always thought this was some kind of continuation of his art into his life, and always wondered where they ended up (other than his huge dual desktop screens).

Well..he decided to share with the world. Check out a glimpse of the real life of one of the most inspiring people in my life…

You can find Jamal Ali behind the desk at Turntable Lab sharing his plethora of expertise.. and in the best and bougiest nightclubs in the city behind the turntables. His musical selection is impeccable and in most cases, he prefers to lead with his records and not his conversation (although both are equally captivating).

I’ve been photographing the hood a lot lately. It’s changing. I kind of feel like my culture is disappearing&as an artist it’s my duty to document the realistic conditions of people’s lives. I’ve also been documenting my life and the people in it /seed of life (ganja). I’m trying not to be discreet with anything right now. I just want to delivery pure honesty about myself and my work. It’s coming along, slowly. Brooklyn is very beautiful. A lot of people overlook it.
