just because I can’t play it out doesn’t mean I can’t celebrate it.
If you read this and enjoy soulful house music (my guilty pleasure),
I implore you to consider enjoying”Everywhere” by John Dahlback.
Mr. Dahlback is the swedish mastermind behind my favorite artist, Hug. The sounds of John Dahlback and Hug are so disparate, but he handles the dreamy, dark and jittery corners of techno as well as he does the vocal house variants.
so yeah… if you haven’t checked it out yet, get into it!
news in short:
birthday: we went camping
oonceoonce: I’m djing on sept 29th with these guys and these guys
los angeles: is amazing
my job: is awesome
tigerbeat6: check out white williams on tour; drop the lime is coming to LA as curses this weekend
seriously, I’ll soup up some real prose someday soon. I spend all day writing things. If you’re curious, ake a look.
hugs,
maria

And I’ve already been back to SF twice, walked over a dead man’s blood and guts (no, really), been visited by every immediate family member, and got a tan in the process. The tan can be witnessed in the above photo. Tan, eh.
Nonetheless, I’d like to inform everyone that a. I love my new job and b. I can’t wait to DJ in LA! what’s my job, well, check out holamun 2 dot com. I’m sure my attempt at not allowing all the trackers pick that up will still allow everyone at said new job find my mention of it on the site. (be sure to take out the space between the mun and the 2 and replace a . where it says “dot”) Hi and thanks for visiting!
So, even though I can’t quite remember where these events are, just know I’ll be playing on the 27th and the 5th. I really look forward to starting to go out in LA. We painted the apartment, put all kinds of furniture together, got a fridge and we’re still not settled. oi!
LA, thanks for having me. I can’t wait to meet you.

this is my new home in LA.
We’re moving on Friday. I am sad, yet excited to embrace change, learn and thrive in LA. I’d like to thank everyone I didn’t get to talk to at GT: Things that go bleep… last night. Thanks for coming! Hit me up if you come to LA!
What a wild going away party!
In memory of the awesomeness of the Gentleman’s techno phenom, I will now reference a post I made from GT2
when I moved from the princehouse to my house sitting gig last summer. Pogo injury. hahahaha:
Friends,
Dancing safely is no longer a big joke. I actually have a back injury due to my incessant pogo dancing at gentleman’s techno two weekends ago. I urge you all to curb your enthusiasm on the dancefloor. Don’t be like me.
As well, if ever you see me start to pogo on the dancefloor, bear some weight on my head, grab my shoulders and move me side to side so for to distribute my energy in a wiser fashion (if I ever dance again… !)
This being said, I’m moving my goods into a storage space and know for a fact there are some storage spaces that offer moving assistance and or street-side pods for the placement of goods for a forklift to receive. Does anyone know any of these companies, has anyone used one of these services, does anyone know of the cheapest option that provides these services?
My new acupuncturist said no more pogo and no lifting!!!
help.
