Solo Casa - WCC night


SoloCasa-July27_small

Sunday July 27th starting at 8pm the West Coast Collective invades Santa Monica with an exciting night of soulful beats less than a mile from the Pacific ocean. We are having a special party for our friend David Barton who is going back to Manchester, England but not before he gets to drop some tunes with the WCC. Also on the decks will be Soulsessions' Sal Antaloss straight out of the Netherlands. The whole event takes place at Main, a new club right in the middle of Santa Monica's trendy Main Street. If this night goes well there is a very good chance that the WCC will turn this into a regular monthly or bi-monthly thing. Please come join us while we do it west coast style on the west side of LA. This event has no cover charge.

Playing live @ Universal City for Mondial

There is a new Thursday night happening here in Hollywood called Mondial. The whole thing launches Thursday April 10th, 2008 at the famous Rumba Room in Universal Citywalk. The concept for Mondial is very interesting. The main room downstairs will cater to a more commercial crowd with main stream club music and a live band playing Rock en Espanol but the more intimate room upstairs will be nothing but Soulful House hosted by the West Coast Collective. I will be playing all night on April 10th and if things works out we will be rotating the different members of the WCC for future dates. I personally think that it will do great since the promoters are experienced,they know what they are doing and they are doing it right. I'm also excited of having the crowd from downstairs coming to check us out and discovering the style of house we play and hopefully make a few converts. For more info about guest list and all that jazz check out the front and back of the flyer.

The Mailing List is Back

In the last few months I have received quite a few emails from people wondering what had happened to my old mailing list or why I wasn't sending any updates.  They were wondering if they had been dropped from it. I would send an email once or twice a month to let them know about new mixes or gigs. When I re-did the new site and I included a blog I didn't think I would need the list anymore since people can subscribe to it and get the updates right here. Well, the list is back!  New and improved. When you join now you can chose your interest so I can send you an email that is relevant to what you want to be informed about. For example most people want to know when I have a new mix up but not necessarily when I have a gig in Los Angeles if they live in Barcelona. The emails are also in HTML format now so they look much better than the old ones. You can join on any of the site's pages by entering your email and clicking join on the sidebar to your left.
