I like moshing. I know i probably annoy the hell out of people around me when and if I start yet it feels like the best form of expression to the pure amount of energy surrounding you. You shake, you bounce, you ram into other bodies in a blur of sense and senselessness. Cousin Brian [...]

DirtyDave – Let’s Keep Things Nice & Filthy Clean
Expanding from house parties into the night life societies of venues such as Starlight Ballroom and the Blockley. DirtyDave has quickly adjusted his style from more heavily house influenced styles to vibrant Dubstep, Electronica. No set quite exemplifies this coming of force then “Let’s Keep Things Nice & Filthy Clean”. With well over 50 minutes of startlingly drops and metaphysical percussion lines, it should keep any fan well invested.
NarK – “Realize” & “Who’s to Blame” Acoustic Exclusives
Realize Who’s to Blame Climbing up couches and half broken chairs, I staple odd bits of old blankets and sheets over the windows in a desperate attempt to battle the light. I was not entirely sure what I was going to do: I only knew that it involved complete darkness. Sprinting around an obscure living [...]
1994! tour w/ Snowing & Algernon
Spring is coming in bloom and summer is only on the way. 1994!, Snowing, and Algernon can rock venues across the country, including the west coast, for a solid 2 months before the real world has to set in. And after that, who even necessarily says that reality has to set in?
Gracie – For Dylan, From Africa
A dreamwave, classic pop sound the likes of Sung Tongs Animal Collective meets Microcastle Deerhunter, Gracie’s release is both appropriate in its timing and context. For Dylan, From Africa has this beach haze aspect to it that will make you just want to lay out in the sun and laze. The point to take away is that Gracie’s For Dylan, From Africa reminds me of a sort of optimistic release of control. We do not know where we are going or how long it will take, but we sure as hell are enjoying the ride.
Sick of the Radio & Dissociative Identity’s Drexel Sierra Earth Week Finale
With around 200 kids partying their faces off (which, unfortunately, got very literal at times…) , the Drexel Sierra Earth Week Finale was a massive success with all the profits going towards the environmental campaigns of the Sierra Club. With live performances from Philly legends including Jack Deezl, Ben Pramuck, EuniQ DJ, DirtyDave, Nomster, and Night Kids, wild childs alike collected for an all out blitz of dubstep/trance/hip hop phenomena, with an amazing warehouse to match. Mid June appears to be our next warehouse rave. Save the date, stay tuned, and enjoy charity like you never thought you could.
Slutever – Pretend to be Nice
“Philly Brat Punks. Like Clueless meets Beavis and Butthead with a side helping of girl anarchy.” Surprisingly, if you take a listen, you’ll realize how strangely true their biography is. A lo fi power punk with clear influences of garage goodness shine through with Slutever. Check out the soundcloud, blog, facebook, and all that jazz and I’ll see ya at the next show. It should be an interesting one.
The Jack Deezl Syndrome
College undergrad with an attraction towards trance, Jack Deezl has been roaming underground house parties, night clubs, and even the occasional Frat party. Experimenting and perfecting his material, Sick of the Radio and Dissociative Identity are proud to have Jack Deezl on board for an evening of warehouse rave goodness on April 23rd.
