It is finally time to come out of your shell Buffalo. Roll down the windows and crank up the tunes as you're crusin' around the City. This is the time of year when I can bear West side rides bumpin' Reggaton beats all day and all night. Because it makes me feel the warmth of the Sun, and reminds me that a smooth sailing Summer is right around the corner. You survived the slings and arrows of Winter depression Hamlet, so reward yourself by eating on a patio or going out dancing! Soak up some rays for your pale-ass ass. Keep those legs moving by night:thursday 4/28

DBGB'S
253 allen st. Buffalo, NY
Artvoice is teaming up with DBGB's to hold another benefit for the GIVE 4 GREATNESS CAMPAIGN. The Give for Greatness Campaign was established to benefit the Art and Cultural institutions that were shamefully neglected funding in the recently passed Erie county budget. The $3 cover will be donated to the cause, so you can feel good about helping out some of the local Theaters and Galleries who desperately need your help. I encourage you to check out the link above and see their great contributions. The party tonight will feature the DJs of QUEEN CITY CARTEL and FROSTY TONE. The DJs performing are very talented, and are very much a part of Buffalo's great Art community. Therefore it is only fitting that they do their part to entertain you, and all for a good cause.

THE COMMUNIST PARTY
featuring DJ DSTAR and MARIO BEE
11p-3a
$5/18+
SOUNDLAB
110 pearl st. Buffalo, NY
The Commie party returns with some local love, but don't discount that as somehow being not as exciting as some of their recent shows. This dance party will be the usual HOTNESS that the Communist party has been bringing for years, and will feature two local DJs that have really established themselves in the past year! Get there because they will transform the basement of Soundlab into the closest thing resembling a Dutch club here in the Nickel City.

Will the Junglists please stand up? I know you're still out there. You've made your presence known from BUF to ROC to TOR. It is time to converge for some classic Jungle and DnB. And what better location for JFN to rock it out than DBGB's? The bar with bass in the place. Let's see if the talent will keep it fresh as expected. ST8CYDE JUMP UP will take the party over with their collaborative DJ and MC traveling showcase! If you enjoy DnB you will not want to miss.

And if you didn't get your fill of DnB the night before. ITF is right back at it the next night. Same time. Same place. Different lineup. GREMLINZ heads down the QEW from Toronto to show Buffalo some of the newer DnB stylings coming from the talented ones above the border. Along with local support from BETA, CMC, FORMULA, and LOKI.
This week I would like to leave you with my brief thoughts on the new YOUNGER BROTHER album Vaccine which hit stores in the U.S. this past Tuesday 4/26. The master, Simon Posford has teamed up with Benji Vaughn and Ruu Campbell again for YB's latest installment, and I have to say that I absolutely love it! The album is an expansion of their sound. Nine tracks of anthem like prog-rock with the usual glitchy electric warp-over, comprises this masterful album of songs that can be danced to up in the club or absorbed after a long night of partying. Simon will be bringing a morphed version of one of his other acts, SHPONGLE to the Town Ballroom on 5/27. Check back with buffaBLOG for an exclusive interview with Posford to discuss Vaccine and highlight a rare appearance for the Englishman here in Buffalo. Below is a FREE DOWNLOAD of one of the tracks, exclusively for you, the readers of buffaBLOG.Much Love
