DJ Jeff started off spinning Rap & Hip-Hop during the early 80's, and it wasn't long before he began to pick up house music. Dottin was also a frequenter of spots such as Axis, Club M, Avalon, Paradise, and Loft at the time. He's spun at various locations in Rhode Island, Maine, and Massachusetts, even spending some time as a radio DJ himself. Deep house is a staple sub-genre in the world of electronic music that is often overlooked but never disrespected (I definitely haven't been exploring enough of it on-air). Partyreporters, I invite you to mellow out to DJ Jeff's Deep Sexy Nights-

This Tuesday, February 17th, The Party Report's airwaves will ooze the great sounds of Brenden Wesley. In one word, this sound is disco. While this dude can mix, to call Brenden only a DJ would not tell the full story. Dedicated to the local scene, Wesley also has his hands in producing, promoting, serious vinyl junkie-ing, and even drumming. That being said, Brenden has a couple of things that he's working on...
First is his release on Bostson's Headtune Recordings, 'New Wave Hookers'. Look out for another release on Solar Disco this spring. Then is his party on Sunday February 15th (see below), featuring the likes of Chris Devlin (Spank Rock), John Barera (FTW), DJ Knife (Marinate, Fresh Produce) and Brenden of course. Then, In couple of weeks he & DJ Supreme One will be starting a REAL Disco weekly, Disco Connection, at the Middlesex Lounge on Tuesdays. And lookout for Sunday's March 1st & 8th at the Phoenix Landing, which will feature Brenden alongside some veteran DJs, both of whom have links with DFA, one of my favourite labels.
Tune in this Tuesday @ wmfo.org from noon 'till 2!
