HARDGAF 13

No, Destructo. We salute you.
Destructo, we apologize. You usually open HARD events, and our laggy asses have often missed you play. We now realize how much we regret it, because we witnessed one hell of an eclectic set. The show-stopper of the night? A SICK ass mashup of "Pon De Floor" and the theme from Beverly Hills Cop. That ALONE was worth it.


Show up early and show some love

HARD 13 was certainly reppin' for the UK this year:


Boy 8-Bit


Jack Beats


Fake Blood

Club Nokia is a decent venue, but the only complaint I have is the elevators. I have never been so glad NOT to have been rolling in my life! The elevators were awkward for me, despite being 100% sober. Even going up one floor seemed to take forever... There's just something about being in an elevator in a club with other smelly, rolling, and drunk people that just isn't my thing.


No Security


Gaslamp Killer

The upstairs area was a little bit unexpected as it looked like a swanky bar. In case you missed it (which I did, to check out Jack Beats), the special guests were Deadmau5 and Tommy Lee!



HARD never fails to throw in surprises! But they couldn't even plan for this shit:


You KNOW you're surprised when you fucking forget to throw the Wu-Tang sign


I remembered this time

Nice to see fellow Killa Bees at HARD 13. I think I... I think I like it, like it!

CMYK wants to thank HARD again for another typical HARD event... in this case, "typical" means yet another good lineup and yet another awesome night.

DGAF Returns to Discotheque with CHROMEO!!!

We weren't so DGAF that we'd dare to miss Chromeo's DJ set at Discotheque on Oct 9!!! And we're glad we didn't! The place was rightfully packed, and Dave 1 and P-Thugg didn't let us down. They dropped some of their own new tracks, and seeing them DJ made me want to see their live set even more!



Dave 1 throwin' it down

P-Thugg still rocked the talkbox like nobody's business, it was mind-boggling and most of the time I didn't even realize it was him, I swore it was part of the track! When they dropped one of my personal 2009 favorites "Let the Bass Kick," I was so confused when Shimosh pointed out that P-Thugg was talkboxing a melody along with it! He did that for most of the set. That takes some serious skillz! We were surrounded by even more wasted and obnoxious people than at previous nights. Chromeo ending it with Bone Thugs' "Crossroads" was a surreal mix of sentiment, '90s nostalgia, exhaustion from dancing, and good times.

Who won DGAF that night?

Well, our DGAF Winner from the Don Rimini Discotheque night made a reappearance... and still managed to outdance everyone until everyone decided to jam pack the floor in time for Chromeo, while by that time absolutely shitfaced drunk or rolling balls.


Our July DGAF Winner

But... it was obvious that tonight's winner, hands down, was P-Thugg, or PEE-THUGG, as he signed on our friend Emely's poster. Anyone who can integrate a talkbox into a DJ set so smoothly and effectively and effortlessly deserves one of the highest DGAF honors.



(Special thanks to Bjones)

And a special shout-out to Paul Devro, who dropped some mad decent (pardon the pun) beats afterwards!

See you on NYE at Club Nokia with PB Wolf, Chromeo??? I'm totally down! To be continued...
