When you find a yellow brick road, there’s only one thing to do: follow it! And this Saturday June 5th it happens to lead to a night of sick beats courtesy of the ever-rad Oz Smoking Lounge. And, yes the Floor Models will be in full effect!
Come out and rep the Floor Models as we rock out the mezzanine. We drop at 10:45pm precise, so get there early! In the meantime, get your chill on at the Oz Smoking Lounge right around the corner on 22nd.
YEAH!!! Only a few days now until the Floor Models once again invade the desert. Still no gig at the show this year (funny, that) so instead we keep the tradition of a Coachella 2010 mix going! All the tracks involve someone associated with the show… somehow. So, get this joint lit on the road trip down to the show, and we’ll see ya in the Sahara
Living on the West Coast, weather-wise, usually ain’t no thang. But the last week was a soggy one. Nothing to do except throw down some dub. And techno. Yes, two of our favorite genres have been fused into a sublime one hour journey. Kinda like a PB&J at 130bpm. Dig in.
It’s no secret that the Floor Models enjoy their bevies. All sorts of bevies are enjoyed, but a few rise to the top: namely scotch and wine. This mix in front of you is dedicated to the latter. It debuted on the excellent wine blog saignée, run by our good friend (and fan!) Cory Cartwright. He is just finishing up an epic month of posts on the topic of natural wine. Dig deep and you may even find a few wine geek posts by yours truly.
Enough! Onto the music. Keeping with the vino theme, the concept for Macerated is the journey that grapes takes in the vat during fermentation. This process is called maceration and it’s where the magic happens, especially for natural wine. It is very dark in the vats, but also very active, so musically expect a healthy dose of dark techno sprinkled with new wave and ambient.
And welcome to it: the all-new, and soon to be rad, The Floor Models website. We’ll be blogging up this bitch as we continue to rock out the bay area. From here forth, new mixes will be posted here only. And we’re in the processing of uploading our whole mix archive for easy grabbing.
While you’re here, don’t forget to check us out this Friday July 3rd at Space Gallery in San Francisco. It’s a DODOCALYPSE!
