Just Like Heaven Festival @ Queen Mary Events Park on 05.04.19 – Part 1

Just Like Heaven @ Queen Mary Events Park on 05.04.19.

Just a heads up. I've divided this entry into two parts, the first being tonight's post, the second following sometime in the next few days. I've got a couple of Chemical Brothers shows to attend the following two days, and my work schedule is as busy as ever. So part two will happen when it …

Tycho’s Boiler Room Set

Tycho perform their 2014 Boiler Room set in San Francisco.

I just ran across this hypnotic live set from Tycho, and it's been kick starting my day on all the right notes. Granted it's midday, now. But the lo-fi high seems to have legs, carrying those downtempo vibes well into the afternoon hours. Tycho's performance comes courtesy of the Boiler Room, who's renown DJ series …
