A little on Donald Glaude:
Ranked 68 on DJMag.com’s Top 100 DJs List in 2005, Donald skyrocketed to 48 this year and his genius keeps on growing…
Before Donald few DJs had attempted to spin house records. Donald’s fine ear helped him give birth to a new style. After mastering his craft, Donald began DJing in various clubs around Tacoma and Seattle. During that time he made several important connections which would launch his music to the forefront of what was quickly becoming one of the largest underground movements since New Wave in the late-70s. Perhaps the greatest connection Donald made was with another aspiring DJ and friend, DJ Dan.

Together Donald & DJ Dan sparked the rave scene in Seattle and developed large followings. Knowing that Donald possessed an energy and ability to work the crowd that was unparalleled to anyone else on the circuit, Dan convinced San Francisco’s legendary Funky Tekno Tribe to bring down his good friend Donald to play at one of their parties. Donald’s talents quickly made him a permanent fixture on F.T.T.’s roster.

Some DJs seek commercial acceptance. Donald, on the other hand, has always preferred an emotional connection with his audience. For Donald, house music is not simply a mixed bag of sound, but rather an experience that provokes the soul. Apart from his mastery on the decks, Donald is best known for his dynamic showmanship. He enjoys his music as much as his audience does. Embracing their energy, it is not uncommon to find Donald pumping his hands in the air, jumping up and down and shouting back his love to the crowd. It is this powerful signature style which has led fellow DJ and musical producer, Dave Aude, to call Donald the “James Brown of DJs.” Donald also caused some stir in 2005 and 2006 with his residency at ICE Nightclub in Las Vegas.

Donald’s uncompromising style and innovation show no sign of slowing down any time soon. With the credit of 5 full-length CDs and numerous remixes under his belt, Donald has focused much of his time to production work. Producing such dance floor hits as “Get Up” and “Soul Cha Cha”. As such, Donald has launched two record labels in which are causing rumblings in the industry. Eden Recordings, started with fellow DJ Rick V, and Durty Records, a collaboration with good friend Vince Lombardi.

Donald’s 2005 release, “This is Me” (Moist Music), is a 35-track double CD that defines his creativity, sound and vibrant style. Since its release, Donald’s fans have been eager to hear what’s next from their favorite DJ. Fans will be pleased to know that Donald’s hard at work on another double CD, “For the People” (Moist Music), a live recording and original tracks produced by Donald himself. With the completion of this latest project, the world should be prepared to experience all sides of Donald Glaude: DJ. Producer. ARTIST.

Continuing to be “The Hardest Working American Dj” Donald has many new projects planned for this upcoming year. He has a tour scheduled with “America’s Most Beloved Dj” Dj Dan and he also has another new CD releasing in 2007. Also expect new release from both of his labels Eden Recordings and Durty Records. You have seen him use his musical talents from bring his experience in playing bass, percussion, violin and then moving on to the turntable just show us his grasp on music. To mastering the turntable and then on to recently turned Serato user always expect the unexpected when you come see Donald Glaude... (Courtesy of myspace.com/donaldglaude)

Power 106's and S.K.A.M. Artist Eric D-Lux This Friday Night @ Heat Ultra Lounge

DJ Eric D-Lux Live and direct at Fusion @ Heat Ultra Lounge
Fridays @ Heat well just keep getting hotter and hotter every week. Capacity event every Friday. Last week Kings Only gave some awesome tees which got the crowd pumped. With DJ Adjust on the turntables you never know whats going to happen. He defenitely brought his A-game last week.

This Friday we are flying in one of the most sought after DJ's in the club scene right now. You can hear every afternoon on Power106 mixing and being the jockey. He flys up to Tao in Vegas as their resident every Saturday.

Check out some information on Eric D-Lux:

Coming from humble beginnings, both began their love of music at a very young age. Influenced by older cousins and friends, each was already fully engulfed in the DJ community by their early teens. Saving up any money they could, each managed to buy records, mixers, turntables, needles, and everything else needed to start their journey. Teaching themselves by watching and listening each picked up the art very quickly.

By high school, each was fully entwined in the party scene, mixing at local house parties and clubs. One common booking at a local club led to the chance meeting of the two. Realizing each had the same ambition, drive, and hustle they instantly clicked and became partners. The two immediately got to work in the studio, dropping mix tape after mix tape and party break after party break, while continuing to DJ at all the hottest clubs in Los Angeles.

In March 2001, Syphe got hired on the Power 106 street team as did D-Lux exactly a year later in 2002. While working on the street team, they continued to stay on the mix tape and party break grind. Their infamous ÒBuko Breaks Vol 1-3Ó got major play all over the country. Creating such a stir on the underground scene, in July of 2004, the two were asked to do a mix tape hosted by none other than Pamela Anderson. The mix tape gained major recognition, being talked about on major outlets such as XXL Magazine, the National Enquirer, and MTV. Soon after, Power 106 heavyweights DJ E-Man and Mr. Choc began to take notice and asked the duo to be special guest DJs on the weekend jump-off mix. Being that this was their life-long dream, the duo immediately rose to the occasion.

After 3 months of doing weekend jump-off mixes, the two were asked to start mixing live on-air, making them official Power 106 mixers. Overwhelmed with joy and excitement they jumped at the opportunity to mix live on the radio, most times coming straight from the clubs at 3, 4, or 5 am in the morning. After mixing on air for just over a month the two were asked to submit a jock air-check by the APD at the time Damien Young. Not ever wanting to be radio personalities, the two at first had no yearning to do so. But after much thought and a good ÒchatÓ with their long time friends and mentors DJ Vice and DJ Echo, they decided to do as requested. They turned in the air-check, the Power 106 bosses loved it, and the rest is history!

You can now hear the dynamic duo on the Saturday Night Street Party weekly (Saturdays 7pm-12am), and daily (Monday-Friday 3pm- 7pm). You can also hear them mixing live on the ÒCali Caliente Power Mix WeekendsÓ as well as throughout the week on the ÒNew @ Two Mix.Ó Along with radio, they are still running the underground scene djing at clubs all over the country and of course continuing to drop the mix tapes. With their down-to-earth, straight from the streets mentalities, Big Syphe and Eric D-Lux are as real as it gets and put in their own words ÒTooommmaaaaa!!!Ó

What makes a Club, Bar, or Lounge Experience Great

This is the second part of a multi-part series on what makes a club, bar, or lounge experience great...

The last part of this series talked about bottle service, getting on the guest list (guestlist), and the music. This section will focus on travel arrangements to and from the night club:

Travel:
In Orange County, like any other county, there is a plethora of travel arrangements you can make for your travel to and from the night club. I've seen everything from a London double decker bus to a $1 million car (the Bugatti). Although at most upscale lounges, bars, or clubs you'll find anything from a Mercedes C 300 to a Honda Accord. Making the best travel arrangements can really raise the bar on the type of experience you'll have. There are the standards: the Lincoln Towncar limo, the Hummer limo, and a normal taxi cab. For the cheapest, you'll most likely be looking at the taxi cab. However, if you and a group of friends, who also have a little cash to spend, want to do it right, your best bet is a large limo such as a Navigator or Hummer limo. They fit about 30 strong and can pack all the booze you need on the ride to the club, bar or lounge and all the seating for passing out on the ride home. For about $50-$60 a person, you can enjoy a night without anyone worrying about being the sober driver and a limo full of booze, as the $50-$60 person estimate can cover both the limo cost and some additional liquor. Not only does it give you and your closest group of friends a convenient and classy way to travel to the club, it also encourages sober driving (Please, No DUI's) and provides you with the perfect pre-party on the way to the night club, bar, or lounge. Most times, club promoters encourage such travel and will get everyone in free that's in the limo. The thinking of the promoter is that if these people have enough to pay for a nice limo ride, they'll be spending nicely at the bar as well (i.e., bottle service).

The only precautions to take are those that come with the drinking and not from the actual limo. Many times people can't handle the pre partying in the limo and a full night of clubbing so be prepared for a few too many drunk people. Just have those buckets handy for the ride home because it can become a real bumpy ride if the room is spinning.

Overall this mode of transportation fits best if you and your group are looking for a great night out on the town without the hassles of carpooling, sober drivers, etc. Finding the best limo company can be troublesome as we here at Mix Armada have found people using companies that have provided less than good quality service (including used glasses and broken items prior to being picked up). However, most limo companies do their best to provide clean and safe transportation to the venues.

Don't forget, if you're too drunk and aren't in such a limo, please take a cab/taxi. Mix Armada strongly promotes sober drivers and the use of taxis or cabs if someone has had too much to drink.

(Mix Armada can arrange for such limo services as well as other transportation for your adventures to and from the night club, bar, or lounge. See Mixarmada.com or call (877) OC-CLUBS for more details.)
