Psychedelic Stereo Tour w/ MiMOSA feat. Epcot
+ Nasty Nasty + Spankalicious + Mohawk vs. Heezy

Mimosa takes listeners on a journey through warm rhythmic sound-scapes, with melodies and vocal samples smoothly crafted to help navigate the sonic terrain. Using basslines inspired by hip-hop classics like Too Short and Dr Dre, combined with deep psychedelic textures reminiscent of the downtempo and midtempo output by Tipper and Bluetech, Mimosa blends the range of styles to create his own fresh take on the west coast sound. Mimosa’s debut EP release, Hostilis, presents tracks with heavy-hitting low frequencies, sexy grooves, and uplifting dub infusions, floating between instrumental Hip Hop and Dubstep.

Emancipator + J Public + L Dude

His agile melodies layered over headnodic, immaculately-produced beats captivated fans across the internet and across the world. “Soon It Will Be Cold Enough” was picked up by Japanese super-producer Nujabes, pressed in Japan and sold 5,000 copies in the first six months. Emancipator landed a Puma sponsorship, gave an interview to Rolling Stone Japan, discovered one of his songs was played at the Beijing Olympics (still trying to figure out how that happened) and his song “Shook,” a mashup that perfectly mixes Mobb Deep’s mighty raps with a haunting track from the Icelandic band Sigur Ros, become the highest-rated song on Hype Machine’s “Best 50 Songs of 2007,” and appeared on Hype Machine as the #2 most popular song in April 2009.
His latest album “Safe In The Steep Cliffs” blends new instrumentation and organic samples with the signature Emancipator style of clean production, silky melodies and addictive drums. Dense layers of choirs, horns, American folk instruments such as the banjo and mandolin, violin and some distinct Asian influences make for a playful but refined album built out of intricate tracks listeners can enjoy on as many levels as they want. Dance to it, chill out to it, immerse your mind in it.

Fri 3.25

The band formed in 1997 and began DJing in 1999. Way back when there was a huge barrier between rock kids and “ravers.” Now the mixture of those two has produced a species known as “hipsters” and apparently it’s safe to DJ anywhere now. That’s a good thing because in 1999, they were ridiculed by rock kids for liking “techno,” even though at that time they were spinning disco and french house. They still spin that stuff along with rock and electro house. It just depends on the night and the crowd. They like to actually match beats and have great respect for other DJ’s who do the same whether it’s on vinyl or computer.

Wintergreen 2009. 17 Small Companies. 1 Bigger Holiday Party.
The concept is still the same – pooling the resources and guest lists of 17 sustainably minded companies to host a wildly fabulous holiday party. New for 2009, we’ve moved to a bigger venue on Cherokee street, double the number of bands, quadrupled the number of bathrooms and pushed back the time just a bit. It is one bigger holiday party with 17 times the fun. We’re still not going to let a weak economy dampen our holiday spirits…or yours. http://wintergreenstl.com
