SFIAAFF has long celebrated the contributions of Asian American artists to the fabric of musical life. In the Groove Salon, we bring together two Directions in Sound artists to go beyond performance to talk life and shop. Here DJ Neil Armstrong and HOTTUB meet up in conversation/collaboration to create a song with the audience. They are from different parts of a musical spectrum but both are innovative musicians that challenge the boundaries of hip-hop. During the salon, they will play samples of their work, speak about their experiences as musicians, and give the attendees a taste of the creative process. This is a participatory event, so come prepared to ask questions and contribute to the song!
THIS EVENT IS 21 AND OVER.
Featuring: Neil Armstrong, Tour DJ for Jay-Z, Mixtape Maker, Directions in Sound 2012 HOTTUB, Disco Rap Band, Directions in Sound 2009
Moderated by: Jeff Chang Writer, Executive Director of the Institute for Diversity in the Arts + Committee on Black Performing Arts at Stanford University.

A lot of y’all came through, illness and TRIED to come through to my anniversary party for the 10 year anniversary of “Original”, troche brought to you by adidas last week in NYC.
Basically, it got super packed super quick, AND the person in charge of the door at the club (which I won’t even name here) was the opposite of cool.
Below is a video that recaps the event , which included some of the worlds finest DJ’s on the wheels…
I didn’t get a chance to take pictures that nite so i had to “borrow” some below. Shoot, I didn’t even get to DJ the event. Trouble with the venue kept me from getting on the wheels (if you wish to know the details I would be GLAD to BLAB. ;) ) However as you see from above, the crowd didn’t miss a step.
Big shouts to DJ Daddy Dog my crewmate from the 5th platoon days, DJ Total Eclipse – my mentor, member of the X-ecutioners / MOTM season 2 , G-bo the Pro mixtape legend who was the original architect of my style , DJ Spinna – the DJ who inspired “Original” , and Questlove.
Shout out to my manager sky for putting it all together, and for Jon Wexler from adidas. Thats my manager below goofing if ya didn’t know, next to a dude that pretty much stole one of these special track jackets. Eh, its ok. He’s a fan ;)
For all y’all who have been supporting me, thank you so much. Without y’all listening I couldn’t have gone this far, and I plan to keep going.
Next time we have an anniversary party though, we’ll make sure it’s at a GOOD spot, and make sure everyone gets in ;) …
