A little late notice, I know. But I have two pairs of tickets to check out CunninLynguists, Homeboy Sandman, Tonedeff and Blue Sky Black Death live at the El Rey in Los Angeles tonight at 10pm. If you can honestly make it and would like to attend a super dope show, hit the c-section and announce your favorite song from any of the artists (along w/ your correct email). I’ll pick two winners for a +1 and I’ll hit you asap.
Kno just hit me and gave me the go ahead to give away a few tickets to tonight’s show at Slim’s in San Francisco. I’ll make this one easy on y’all… just hit the c-section and recite your favorite line from any of the artists listed above. Make sure you include your actual email in the correct field and be around so that I can get in contact with you (if you’re you’re chosen that is). Good luck.
And in case you need a visual reminder of how dope these guys are live, check here, here and here. Hell… type “CunninLynguists” in the sidebar to your right and have at it.
TheBeeShine catches up with PackFM and Tonedeff to see what inspires them to do what they do. Also, if you’re in the Southern Cali area this weekend, be sure to catch CunninLynguists, Homeboy Sandman and Tonedeff at the El Rey this Friday (as shown on the flyer to your right).
In November of 2009, Tonedeff spent an entire weekend combing through every image ever posted on LastNightsParty.com – drawing inspiration from the countless photographically captured moments of drug-addled, fuck-ready, party people who only exist at the center of the universe. Fast forward to 2011 and that very distinct vibe is finally being released on the new single from Swedish minimalist techno/house production duo, Boeoes Kaelstigen.
