BONA|FIDE TUESDAYS PRESENT: KINGDOM

RESIDENT DJS: RIZZLA | LEAHV | D’HANA | JUSTINCREDIBLE | V-NICE
SPECIAL GUEST: KINGDOM
Kingdom is a Brooklyn-based producer and DJ whose signature sets and productions have been gathering a rabid following since he released his first mixtape in 2006. Since then, DJs from Diplo to BBC’s Annie Mac have given his tracks spins, and with his recent signing to Fools Gold Records and the video for his debut single “Mind Reader” airing on MTV2, there’s no doubt that Kingdom is the young American producer to watch. Kingdom may play everything from kuduro to juke, but R&B is his first love, and it shows in his bass-heavy remixes and original tracks, often featuring R&B vocal samples on top of his trademark production style—what some have called “a Brooklyn take on the UK garage sound.” This vanguard of tropical blends, Latin stylings and bass-heavy, dance-savvy sounds from around the world is catching the ear of more than a few tastemakers. Kingdom has received positive press and praise from magazines such as The Fader and XLR8R, to trendsetting sites such as Pitchfork and Discobelle, but his eclectic, forward-thinking style blows right past the buzz. Bok Bok of the London-based Night Slugs collective attested: “The genres Kingdom dips into range across the board, but his mixes create within themselves a new logic, a gutter house aesthetic that just makes sense.”

THE GLOW///NOT GLORIOUS LADIES OF WRESTLING

THE GLOW 08.05.2010
Ok, so I was playing at a party at Ad Hoc Studios a few weeks ago and had the pleasure of sharing the decks with Alfredo and Dj Golden Touch. I’m not really sure what happened that night, but musical alchemy was afoot. It was magical. Seriously one of the parties of my life. As a result they asked me to drop in for the rebirth of their party, The Glow.
It’s set up to be the official after party for the First Thursdays http://www.jpcentresouth.org/ art/business collaboration here in JP.
The other folks on the bill include Just Joan (Ca$h 4 Gold) and perhaps Durkin (Solid!) & Ghostdad (Revolver, Do It Again) will chill for a bit. I’m excited to be a part of it and play at JP’s newest secret performance space (and recording studio?!) The Temple. Expect to hear lots of underground classics – Chicago, Detroit, Disco, Post-Punk, Electro House, Hip House etc…. This is guaranteed to be a ridiculous night! Don’t miss it!

Kingdom’s signature post-rave, pre-apocalyptic, visuals are running amok here. If geometry looked and sounded this good in 10th grade, I would’ve passed that shit with flying colors!
Speaking of flying colors…
RACE//BOSTON//CULTURE
Jul 13
I just want to go out and meet dope queer (or queer friendly) brown people without feeling like I’m joining a sorority.
I need to start a lil’ bohemian club like Afro-punk –> http://www.afropunk.com/ or the short lived Negroclash parties –> http://www.djlindsey.com/blog/about/. The club is tentatively called Lil’ Brooklyn (and has like, 6 members), but I’m open to name change suggestions.
In the meantime:
