Fine ladies schooling you weekly at Moomia Lounge in Soho:

If you want me, you can find me in the Angels and Kings tonight for another installment of Vegan Drinks (7 pm – 9 pm, free!). There you’ll also find a Vegan Bake Sale for Haiti. Compassion is so tasty. Pete Wentz agrees.

Vegan Drinks is brought to you by the premium folks at SuperVegan.

Last night at our weekly party at Moomia Lounge (Wednesday nights, drink specials, two women DJing…you get the idea), I recorded my set and came up with this 25 minute disco workout. Download it and sweat it out, ladies.

Cardiodisco with Lil Ray
25 minutes of High Impact Slimnastics

Michna – Triple Chrome Dipped
Eric Prydz vs Floyd – Proper Education (Club Mix)
DJ Mujava – Township Funk
Ron Carroll – Walking Down the Street
Lykke Li – Little Bit (Villains Remix)
The Silver Disco – Send Me Out For Love
Analog People in a Digital World – Rose Rouge

I’ve had both of these tracks on repeat at home all day today, and I will probably play both in their near-10 minute glory at Moomia Lounge this Wednesday night (sometime between 8:30 pm and 10:30 pm).  For the unfamiliar, Burial is your go-to band for minimal, ethereal dubstep, and Four Tet’s electronic music makes you feel good.  The fellas joined forces, and this is what it is.  Have a listen.  It’s like antidepressants for your eardrums.

January 28’s regularly scheduled Vegan Drinks at Angels and Kings will now include a Vegan Bake Sale for Haiti. All proceeds will be donated to Sodopreca to send veterinarians from the Dominican Republic over to help out.  I’ll be there, of course, on the 1s and 2s.

We had a blast at Moomia Lounge last night!  Tons of folks came out, and despite the “No Dancing” signs, everyone got down!  I have a good feeling about where this party is going. Check my set list.

Here’s one of the tracks I played. Enjoy!

Still Going – Spaghetti Circus (Radio Edit)

New grooves came my way just in time for SMOKE at Moomia Lounge on Wednesday. In the second installment of Wu-Tang Meets the Indie Culture, undergrounds from across the pond collide for an equally dreamy and darkly pounding dubstep take on a most favored hip hop supergroup. I like the spacier tracks. Try on:

GZA – Alphabets (Dakimh Instrumental Remix)

I think it does the original justice.

If you like that plus two women working the turntables, come on out this Wednesday!

Next year is shaping up nicely! I’m teaming up with Cristina Raphaeli and the rest of Astoria DJ Group to bring you SMOKE every Wednesday at Moomia Lounge in Soho starting the first week in January! And there’s more! Come see us on Friday, January 8 as ADG takes over Fridays and Saturdays at NaNa Restaurant and Bar in Park Slope.

Cristina is slick. No doubt.
