Like it or not, we're all labeled by someone. Can either ignore it, reject it, or embrace it. It's happening anyway. I choose to embrace because life is hard enough, may as well throw myself into joy

First off our next event is August 5th. We do this the first Saturday of each month on the main floor of Villains Beastro in downtown Windsor. Never a cover charge and runs from 9p to 230a. Let me sell you on how we are different. So, I'm DJ Raev. Sergio (DJ Surge) and I started this back in 2019. We wanted to do something different from any of the previous nights in Windsor or Detroit. Originally that meant we collected a cover charge, donated it to local charities, and displayed art from local artists. Then the 'vid hit. Coming out of it we scrapped cover charge and made our charity the community. Everyones mental health took a beating, and everything is expensive. We want the community to have something to look forward to, try to provide as best as we can, and don't want anyone excluded because of money. That said, we bleed money into this. Tip jar does exist and we are always thankful for anything! In 2022 we relaunched and the decision was made to add more variety to the music, as well as sensibilities of a younger generation than Serg and I. This led to us bringing a new DJ on who has a great energy, passion, and a different approach to the genres than we do. Thus, Sterling Pepke aka [51N] joined us on decks! We still have a steady stream of local artists displaying their work at the events, and have recently had a rotation of crafters hawking their spooktacular wares too. This also saw Mel taking over a lot of our social media as well as a voice in our planning, Marci getting heavily involved in promotion/planning/music research, and Martyna getting heavily involved in promotion, planning, and aesthetics. We meet almost every month and review what has gone well, what we can do better, what feedback we hear, and what we want the future to hold. We want to provide as excellent of an experience as is within our ability to provide. So, that's where we are. We're a collective putting on a party for our community. A place for those who seek it. We are Asylum.

Access to Concrete is pretty legit though. I am a harsh critic of production quality in our scene at times, and had nothing bad to say about your cd. As for the music itself I found the entire release enjoyable start to finish. I also grestly enjoyed seeing a didgeridoo employed as part of a live set. Be proud of the accomplishments and promote!

VAZUM & Palm Ghosts at Bowlero August 12th
Raev replied to VAZUM's topic in Nightlife, Events & Concerts
If you haven't checked VAZUM out you really should. I like to spin some of their stuff from time to time, it's pretty damn solid. -
Kai Winn was a great character. I hated her.

Has it really been since 2014 when the Smalls DGN reunions took place? Wow. Once upon a time mods used to do things and title them as an official event, because we were running the event. I did about a half dozen of them back in the day myself. The original intent of the Emissary was to be different from mod. Mod did events and moderated the board, emissaries were official promoters. I know because when the original conversation came up (I think I started the official conversation in staff chat, but may be mistaken) I sat with Troy at City and talked about it, as did my wife (-Siren-). It's how she ended up one. The other Emissary will never end up back here but she's another Canadian and close friend to Siren and I (she was even part of our wedding).

I'm still absolutely amused in a good way by this entire...situation. Happy for both of you.
