ROTATION: INVITATION
“A new night comprising a rotating list of residents dedicated to bringing the best in underground sounds to Athens with love; made by and for this city’s party people”
Taking place on Saturday the 19th of May in the cosy Bar space of Six D.O.G.S. We cordially invite you to our recently debuted monthly party - this will be the third installment; as a group we have been kicking this idea about for a bit and as you’ll see from the list of participants making up this project, we all share in a collective sense of quality underground music, but with each DJ bringing their own personal take on it, resulting in what we think is a unique quality in an across the board, friends and family type night.
There are no headliners - this is all of our night, and out of the pot of ROTATION residents 5 different DJs will play each month with those names only being announced on the night to the public by way of a hand scrawled notice pinned up on the door!
On the night of the 19th Six D.O.G.S. will also be screening the final of the 2012 Champions League match!
this guy is rapid. no sooner has his prey been uploaded to the internets and he’s on it with his chops and screws. previous subjects are a$ap, shlohmo X drake, d33j X sigur ros, and now this freddie gibbs track (which is my fave so far).
