Among my new favorite things in Portland since the new year is SLABTOWN (slabtownbar.net), a kick-ass vegan falafel house / game room / bar / all-ages concert venue in the Alphabet District, Northwest Portland (map). This month, The Iced Breaks Crew will celebrate Trish Dish’s birthday in Portland for the 2nd consecutive year and we’re super-sizing the house party we hosted last year. The birthday girl LOVES Slabtown, and their staff loves us, too.
Did I mention that I love 2-step? I’ve been dj’ng in Portland, Oregon a lot in the last couple of weeks. Unboxing my vinyl and playing through them has been a blessing. To those that own a lot of vinyl records, isn’t it amazing how your b-side relevancy ebbs and flows over time.
Check out this music video (after the break) from french electro-boogie producer, Mason. This could be considered food-porn, but totally safe for work.
