“Out like a trout… “

I first started DJing because of Ninja Tune’s London parties in the late 90s, so it seems appropriate to bite one of Scruff’s samples to announce that I’m stepping down as one of the Fatback DJs.
Back in college, my circle of friends threw a series of monthly on-campus house parties as Otaku Soundsystem, sort of […]

This is how I roll

Via Boing Boing

So sweet, and so mellow…

Someone, I don’t know who, posted this to the Fatback Facebook page…

Put this on with some black lights and let what happens happen. It’s natural.
(P.S. Tender Loin, February 14… )

What can I say. The man likes cheeseburgers. Via Ffffound.

Have any Fatback photos?

I’m looking for photos from past Fatbacks for a special, 3rd Anniversary-related project.
I’m most interested in shots of party-goers, and less in the DJs doing what DJs do.
Got any you can share? Leave a comment below!

Going Out Gurus preview Fatback’s 3rd Anniversary

The Post’s Going Out Gurus included a great rundown of what to expect at the 3rd Anniversary party in this week’s edition of the Nightlife Agenda…

Top 30 Jam Countdown: #6 I Love Music, The O’Jays

Music is the healing force of the world,
It’s understood by every man, woman, boy and girl…
I won’t be breaking any news when I tell you that the Fatback DJs have a thing for positive, uplifting songs. Look back through the Top 30: people are finding real love, bringing out the best in each other, keeping […]

Fatback Mix XXIX

We can all party together, but first…
THERE’S WORK TO BE DONE!
You know how your computer has some programs that run right there in front, where you can work on them, but runs others in the background? They just hum along, quietly, doing their business, out of sight, out of mind. That’s kind of what prepping […]

Top 30 Countdown: #11 Can You Feel It, The Jacksons

All the colors of the world should be
Lovin’ each other wholeheartedly…
I first heard this tune as a little kid, while I was watching a documentary about the making of the video for “Thriller.” It was in there as a nod to the special effects in the video (above), which, like the song, are a […]

Top 30 Countdown: #22 96 Tears, ? and The Mysterians

? and The Mysterians released “96 Tears” back in 1966. They’ve been described as the first punk rock act, the first Latino band to land a national audience, and you hear a lot about how their frontman, ?, went door to door and pestered stations to play the record. It paid off: Billboard #1 with […]

Let’s just peer into our crystal ball, here…

Diana posts to the Fatback DC Facebook page…
“My prediction for what the Fatback 3rd Anniversary will be like…. ”

Diana, I think that bet’s gonna pay off.
The Fatback 3rd Anniversary is January 22nd at Liv.

Top 30 Countdown: #26 You Bring Out the Best in Me - D.I.T.

Ooo! Ahh! Baaby! You bring out the best in me!
I am not going to lie - I know nothing about the D.I.T. Band except that “D.I.T.” stands for “Destiny in Time” and that they put out a bunch of boogie 45s back in the day. That’s it. That’s all. I have no knowledge to impart.
And, […]
