Hey Bay Area – Here is a chance for y’all to learn How I make mixtapes – @CAAM Groove Salon at @somsf
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:
