For our first-ever Together NYE event, we’re proud to be partnering with Think Tank, a new club & restaurant in Kendall Square that turns the nightclub into a public parlor. The classy but comfy space include video games (Capcom vs. Marvel!), excellent lighting and a top shelf soundsystem.

At the bar, you’ll find local draft beer, regional wine and even liquor from the area. The food is international and endlessly creative, with a staff and surroundings to match.
With two frontrooms to lounge, a bar and game room, plus a well-intentioned dancefloor, Think Tank gives up something for everyone.

Musically, there’s everything and more: The tech-funk of DJ Melee, the fresh sound of Banana Peel records, late-night disco from Nathaneal Bluhm, current club house music from DJezus and the always well-informed techno of Volvox.

RA: Clubbing in Boston

Clubbing in Boston

[Courtesy of: Resident Advisor]

It’s among the largest cities on the East Coast of the United States, but has always struggled in the shadow of its big brother, New York. Shuja Haider takes a look at the unique clubbing landscape of Boston. Of America’s major cities, most have their own indigenous kind of music. From the several scenes of obvious metropolises like New York, Chicago or Detroit, to local subgenres like Philly Soul, DC Hardcore and Baltimore Club, an eponymous musical style seems like a prerequisite to a city’s cultural stature. As for Boston, though, it’s hard to identify a native musical movement that has made its way into the history books—unless you count “More Than a Feeling.”

Meat Katie and Dylan Rhymes / Only You / Free Download Incl


Dylan Rhymes & Meat Katie feat. Iconical “Only You” Pt.1 by LOT49

Considering these guys share a studio in leafy suburban town of Kingston, its a rare occasion that you get to hear them on the same record, the last being ‘Role player/Long Acre’ back in 2009. This time around they have drafted in the vocal talents of Ashley Slater & Kristian Booth under their ‘Iconical’ moniker.

‘Only You’ is a brooding slab of melting electro trash! The rising bass-line is relentless and glorious in its peaks while it carries with it a classic acid house type feel (think Renegade Soundwave, Nitzer Ebb, Fini Tribe + Meat Beat Manifesto). As our boy Lee coombs puts it… ‘Its the Future sound of Retro’.

Three upcoming producers have been drafted in on remix duties. Brighton based Echo Vacio strip the whole track back and deliver a slamming peak-time Techno workout. Germany’s new young hopefuls Switchbox give an atmospheric tech-house interpretation that maintains the mood of the original and last but not least Stockholm’s Haggstrom funks it up and adds some bounce to the proceedings.

Another diverse package from Lot49 – so here’s what the critics say…

DJ Melee presents – The EpicMan – Mini Mix!

Over the years I have had the pleasure of meeting some very special and talented people, Seth Bradbury is one of those people. In these years I’ve had the great opportunity to work alongside him on some amazing projects, each time Seth has always been motivated and energetic in his personal and professional life. The most recent project is the EPIC MAN charity event that he and Will Thomas have curated; Seth has asked me to put together a DJ Mix that is both encouraging and exciting. As always I am happy to help a friend and most importantly helping out the EPIC MAN charity event. They are asking everyone to assist their cause by donating at least $10 dollars if you could. Please read their sites below, download the mix and donate!

With that said this will be one of the last projects I have the honor of working with Seth on. He has been an absolute delight to work with and when he transplants to the city of Chicago at the end of the month, he will be missed. The city of Chicago is extremely lucky.

DONATE HERE

EPIC MAN is the journey of Will Thomas and Seth Bradbury from an Island off the Coast of Maine to the finish line of the Boston Marathon over 24 hours. They will kayak, bike, run, and celebrate the Epic lifestyle that defines Epic Man, while raising money for amazing charities. The 2009 journey was just the beginning and in 2010, they will expand the challenge to include flying to Europe immediately following the Boston race (running/kayaking to the airport, of course) and finishing the London Marathon a week later. To understand just how ridiculous the Epic Man adventure will be (and how you can join the fun), you can visit the FACEBOOK PAGE
