sick sick sick ... and moving

There's 2 huge things happening that are keeping me away from my blog duties (and my work duties). One is that I was sick with the flu for 3 days this week. I mean O-U-T, OUT. I slept and sweated from Tue until pretty much this morning. This flu bug going around is a nasty critter. I advise everyone that I try to kiss to say 'NO NO NO!'. (just until next week).

I was also supposed to move residences this weekend. However, due to sickness I haven't been able to lift my head much less a finger to do any packing. So I will be using this week to get myself to my new location filled with 3 other musician friends, 2 kitties, and 1 FANTASTIC view of Mt. Raineer.

So bare with me. I get to blogging more when things settle down.

Chi-Town/Sea-Town Boogie Down

Chi-Town Boogie Down

I had a fabulous time mixin' it up in Chicago last night! The promotor, Olia, picked me up fresh off a very bumpy plane ride and whisked me off to play at a quaint bar/restaurant called Cafe Amante which is on the West side of Chicago. It's very refreshing to play to a town where everyone totally feels the music. In Seattle, House music is still a bit underground, trying to make it's way up. But House music was born here in Chicago, out of disco (you can all thank my mom's Bee Gee albums for this passion of mine!) and the people here love their baby! Olia was extremely welcoming. And the other DJ's that played that night were very fun and had mad skillz. I certainly hope to get another chance to play with them again. And Bionicchick & Christie Dawn both got to see me play for the first time! And that makes Jack a very happy girl!

What the Hell is House Music, anyway?

House is a rhythm, a Heartbeat...

I found this nice little history of House music website that describes what House music is and where it came from. Stay tuned to find out how House Music can save the world.

http://www.wordiq.com/definition/House_music

There's also a fabulous book that I'm waiting to inherit once Bishop is done reading it. Only thing is that I've seen it on his toilet seat for the last 3 years, the bookmark very slowly working it's way to the back letter by letter. Anyway, it's called 'Last Night a DJ Saved my Life'. And if anyone REALLY REALLY loved me, they'd get it for me for Valentines Day. Seeing as I don't have a Valentine. *snif*

I got it!!

I finally figured out how I can be a vegetarian and STILL eat meat to save the planet....

So if someone else orders the meat then I'm not contributing to killing animals (cuz they would be the ones killing the animal, not me) and if they don't eat all of their meal, then my eating the rest of the meal actually stops the food from having to be discarded to the dump and decomposed by our mother earth (R.I.P.).

I'm Jen... I solve problems.

There is a God

Where can a girl get a HOT DOG around here?!?

People sometimes ask me for advice on what shows they should go to around town since I have a finger on the pu(l)se of the city (and it sure fills up a blog real nice!). My favorite is Shannon because she’s always up for anything and she generally slaps me great spots to check out right back. However, today’s request was a little bit different. She writes ‘Help! I am DYING for a chili cheese hotdog Right now...Do you know where I could get one...anywhere in seattle?’ ha ha ha

More for this weekend to 'Make your head spin'!

I was pleasantly surprised last night to find that the DJ at SeeSound was
Hisham Samawi from New York. He is a fabulous DJ who has an extensive tour schedule. Seattle was lucky enough to get this man twice in two months. He was just in LA, Jordan, Lebanon, Germany, DC, San Francisco, and Miami to name a few. Catch him TONIGHT at The Contour before he heads off to Mexico.

(Sun Feb 12)
Also tomorrow is ‘Be My Bloody Valentine’ brought to you by Shameless at Rebar. An elektro, techno, disco, punk extravaganza

Last year's "My Bloody Valentine" at Shameless was a mess. Or maybe I
should qualify that by saying, we were a mess. This year's Shameless rendition of the Love (ugh) Holiday will no doubt be much of the same. Think romance, love, blood, and B-Movie antics. DRESS TO EXPRESS!

Residents: Recess, Derek Fisher, the perfect cyn, Scorpio
VJ: FOC:EYE
Electro MC: Anton Bomb (Club YES!)

DJ Misha @ SeeSound Tonight!

I LOVE SeeSound. Such a kewl place. And Tuesday's are excellent brought to you by Electrosect and Sensory Effect. Please swing by tonight and tell Misha the dress does NOT make her look fat. Also tell her she ROCKED it at Last Supper Club on Saturday with DJ Girl 6. Nice one, brotha!!!

snipit from The Stranger Party Listings

OSCILLATE Oscillate has quickly become one of the city's premier showcases of forward-thinking electronic music. Resident Patrick Haenelt performs weekly as Electrosect; his tracks recall later-period Meat Beat Manifesto's sampladelic funkiness, in which textural grit and eerie atmospheres cohere around ass-wiggling beats. Fellow Oscillate resident DJ Greg Skidmore deftly blends high-IQ electro with melodic, angular IDM, and cool-headed minimal techno. He's got deep knowledge for a youngster.

The Far East -- Bellevue

For the first time in my 6 years of working in Seattle, I have to commute to Bellevue (yes, I have a day job). The commute is fine if I carpool with Tom M. or Lisa D., but being in the suburbs every day is a very different feeling than being in the city, immersed in art, music and culture. I feel like everything is made of cardboard out here. As if, when I pass a certain imaginary line, the three-dimensional landscape changes into two dimensions. Buildings, yards, housing seem to lose the shadows that define the culture from which they emerged. I can no longer see the stories within their history because they are all the same.

Sokolicky and I were brainstorming last night about it, and we decided one reason is that a majority of the artwork that seen in suburban culture is for the purpose of retail instead of expression. Art that is made for expression harbors emotion and depth.

Another reason may be because we are trained to see a graphic and know what it symbolizes. Automatically understand the meaning behind it. The graphic is interpreted in the exact same way by everyone who sees it. And therefore we loose not only expression of the artist, but also interpretation of the viewer. A black-lined mermaid surrounded by a green circle has only one meaning … ‘buy our coffee’. It tastes the same, looks the same in every shop -- on every corner, in every city in every state in every country. No expression except for ‘buy’. No interpretation except for ‘us’.

I love my mom. She is the most amazing, strongest, enduring woman I know. When I moved to Seattle, my family came to have dinner with me and see my new place. I took them to Zeek’s Pizza , a fantastic pizza joint up the street on Phinney Ridge that uses real ingredients (it’s unfortunate that that fact even has to be mentioned). Garlic cloves smushed from a head of garlic. Wedges of pineapple the size of my thumbs. My mom didn’t like it. She wanted pizza that tasted ‘normal.’

I went to the coffee shop here in Bellevue this morning and the barista told me about a customer who came in asking for the Sumatra blend of coffee. When she told him the blend is not available anymore because of the Tsunami in South Asia, he said ‘so will you have it next week then?’ She said to him, ‘No, the earthquakes have wiped out thousands of roads and farms and killed 220,000 people in Sumatra and there are no more beans available.’ Then he said ‘I thought coffee came from Columbia’.

Yesterday I went into Whole Foods for some lunch. I walked into the grocery store and was greeted by rows upon rows upon rows of fresh fruits & vegetables, meats, cheeses from all over the entire world. Boxes and boxes of beans and rice, soups, pastas. 3-7 different brands of any type of food that I could think of. So much that it takes me 5 minutes to decide what yogurt to buy. My choice of brand, price, flavor, container, size. I have the opportunity to be one of the healthiest, most well-fed people in this entire world. I take it all for granted every single day. Pink told me once that it’s a really good exercise to take a piece of food like a Fugi apple in your hand and think about every hand that it touched in order to get there: from the stock-person who put it on the shelf, from the delivery truck driver who brought it from the warehouse, workers who unloaded and loaded it from the train, from the pick-up truck that carried it from the farm in California or Washington or Indonesia or Japan where a boy or girl, man or woman picked apples all day long from the trees with their bare hands. Doing that makes you think of all the steps involved in getting a piece of fruit from one land to another just for you. It’s unfortunate that if one day the Fugi apple stopped showing up at the grocery store, I would just turn my vision to another barrel and pick up a Braeburn instead, without one single thought as to what could have happened to the people in between the tree and myself that could have caused the choice that I once had to go away.

Starbucks donated $100,00 to Tsunami effort. Last year, Starbucks reported $4 billion in sales.

Speaking of Artists in Seattle, tonight launches 'Blow up the Spot'.

Glamour-R-NOT-Us

I'm totally sick. It started at about 2pm on Thursday. Actually, I think it started at 4:30 on Tuesday when I did hot yoga for the first time ever. It was beautiful. 1 full hour and a half of sweating my brains out. I drew everything out ... emotions, stress and apparently a few bugs that had been soaking in the hot tub of my Chi.

On Thursday afternoon I started feeling really cold and goose-pimply. Then the sore throat I had woken up with became more and more inflamed. Next thing you know I'm wrapped up on the couch in sweats, 2 sweatshirts, a huge blanket and the heat cranked up to 75 degrees F-- and I was STILL freezing. Luckily I have fantastic friends like Sokolicky who not only put a spare on the flat tire (I'm TELLING you, she's a Rockstar) that I'd noticed on my car in the morning (actually Lisa D. noticed it after I drove it about 3 miles to her house without a clue) but then made me some kick-that-cold's-ass 4-clove garlic soup with fresh rye croutons. Yummy. I was crashed out in bed by 9:30.

While I sweated for 15 hours, I missed a GREAT party put on by Hitgirl and Diesel for the opening of the Diesel Clothing store downtown. It included FREE drinks, hundreds of hottie straight and queer urban hipsters, beat boys and the Tour DJ for Scissor Sisters,
Sammy Jo. Damn that Hot Yoga!!! I’d rather swim in my own vermin than miss a party like that. At least ALL of my friends got go out and play. And here’s a few pics that Christine took. Damn she’s good. More to come!

I was feeling better on Friday. However, when I woke up in the morning drenched in sweat I noticed a fungal growth on the corner of my lip. A few months ago I had found a similar unappealing growth under my armpit near my right breasteses. I went to the doctor who told me it was shingles, a rash caused by the chickenpox virus.

~ snippit from the internet so it must be true ~
You can only get shingles (Herpes Zoster) if you have previously had
chickenpox. After having chickenpox the virus lies dormant in the nerves, and shingles occurs when it is revitalised in one particular nerve to the skin, thus explaining the way it affects a clearly demarcated band of skin only.

Usually the cause is a decrease in your body's natural resistance, which may come through other infections, stress, being generally run down, or occasionally, when the body's immune defences are affected by certain drugs or other immune deficiencies.

~ end snippit ~

I’ve ruled out the ‘are affected by certain drugs or other immune deficiencies’ because that’s impossible. So I blame stress.

I’ve missed two things going on this weekend (The Diesel party and Whitney’s Bday party .. including a Whitney bday kiss!!) but I still have two DJ gigs to keep me busy, Michelle’s Sobriety party tonight and Baltic Room tomorrow night. However, I have a very unsightly patch of FUNGUS on my FACE that will be a lovely addition to the cute little outfit I was going to wear on Thursday but will save for Sunday instead (hey, at least I don’t have to do laundry).

So two things to do today … go to get my tire changed and then go to Fred Meyer to buy makeup, which is something I haven’t bought since I gave up penises in 1998.


Which reminds me. Does anyone else find Loreal’s marketing slogan ironic? I saw the commercial when I was watching the Golden Globe awards where the slogan states ‘You’re worth it’. And yet the company makes millions of dollars a year off the fact that billions of women throughout the western world believe that without their product, they aren’t.

Drunk in Dance Fest

LSC on Saturday was a drunkin’ dance fest! The night was starting out super slow, dead even, and at 12:15 or so, Kendall and I thought the nasty weather was scaring people off. Then all of a sudden, either I was drunk or TONS of people magically appeared! It was a great night after that. Kendall and Julie Herrera rocked the house. I enjoyed my 2nd set, though for some reason my hand kept hitting the on-off switch on the turntable which causes the record’s beats per minute to slowly decrease. So the song ends up sounding like this ‘git yo freak on, git yo freak on, gotta gottta gottttaa ggiiit yoooouuurrr freaaaaaaaakkkkkkkkkkkkk ooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnn’ until it stops. So about 3 times in my headphones and TWICE live the song did that. It’s all very obvious and VERY embarrassing, but the crowd just smiled and kept dancin’. Even during the last time it happened, when I couldn’t get the record to back to the correct BPM. Wups! And for the record, that happened most often during my first set when I wasn't intoxicated. So I think it was just some wierd hand thing.

But lots of peeps showed up, including Brooke & Walt with a ton of dancers! Liz and Lauri also came down from Catwalk to support! And there was a surprise appearance by Bishop. I was so surprised to see him in fact, that I spilled his brand-new drink trying to give him a hug ‘hello’. Wups!!

See, the great thing about being the DJ is that you get tons of free drinks. But the problem with being a DJ is that you get tons of free drinks! I was smart enough not to drive home, but not quite smart enough to realize that it’s a bad idea to leave your record case full of vinyl in your trunk in the middle of Pioneer Square all night long. Um, hello? Even when Julie said, ‘are you sure you want to leave those in there?’ I was like, ‘Ssuuurre, no big deal, shhiiit’. So my babies sat in the trunk ALL night.

Now, a vinyl case holds sentimental, fiscal and stylistic value. Not only was the case a gift (and covered with stickers that are irreplaceable), but it fits over 100 records, which at $6 to $15 a pop can add up to quite a bit. Plus! The countless during-work hours that I slaved away listening to tracks on dancerecords, satellite records or primal in order to find my own personal style is unimaginable. So when I woke up in the morning and realized that I’d put my babies in danger, I was utterly disappointed with myself. I have nobody to blame except Julie, and she’s already covered her ass by asking me if I was sure and forcing me to make a bad decision TWICE. I got up quickly, sucked down 2 huge glasses of water and then caught the 71 to 2nd and Washington where my babies slept soundly in Kiya’s bonnet, undisturbed. Whew!

The thing that I didn’t realize at the time was that my new digital camera that my parents bought me, er, I mean Santa brought for me at Christmas must have fallen out of my pocket somewhere. There’s tons of great pics from LSC that night that I can’t show you which totally bums me out and makes me want to call my mom and apologize profusely. Hopefully it will turn up, but if not, keep your eye out for illegal on-line photos of me nude. Wups!!!

And yes, I was hung over all day on Sunday. I hate alcohol.

Weekend Hops! (or should I say 'hopes?')

(Fri Jan 14)

If you are LUCKY enough to be in Vancouver B.C. (like Steve & Cheryl) you should not miss LTJ Bukem at Sonar in B.C. Jaisin introduced me to Bukem a few years ago and I've never been able to find Drum 'n Bass quite like it. Suggestions anyone?

If you are in Seattle ~

Mingle with me at SeeSound Lounge for Happy Hour 6-9pm! I won't be playing, just hanging out and celebrating my last day at my current employment (yes, I have a day job). I start my new job on Monday!

Then head over to Contour for a Tsunami Relief Benefit*! SF Spundae dj Taj, DJ Chronus, Carl Thompson and Scott Keith. I totally ditched out on Bishop last week when he went to a Tsunami Relief Benie at Element. I was in my sweats and NOT a rockstar.

(Sat Jan 15)
LA Kendall, Julie Herrera and Myself will be playing Vivid at Last Supper Club! Rumors that Ginger Vaughn is in town! This will be the first time Ginger and I are on the decks together!

If are thinking more Dancehall and Raggae on Saturday, check out a new night at Mirabeau Room. Papa Far-I, DJ Advent from Six Degrees Records and DJ Anshul the Bollywood Prince spinning conscious Hip Hop and Bhangra Beats to get you in the groove. Mirabeau Room always has a different kind of music vibe. Please check them out sometime.

(Sun Jan 16)
Derek informs me that he's off baby duty on Sunday and is hitting up Baltic Room for Expansions LIVE! Seattle's running electronic mixshow broadcasting live! Legendary Seattle Dj's: Dj Riz, Masa, Kid Hops Limited $5 online presale.
