What’s going on in REAL de Janeiro?
While your at home looking at vice magazines do´s and don’t´s on the interweb, there´s a sick Sunday night party going on in a club cleverly named after something silly: 69.
Dj´s Chico Dub, Pedro Seiler and Joao Brasil are gonna make carioca booties bounce to post-baile funk, electro, mash-ups, world beats, and best of all GHETTOTEC. Here´s hoping they play some DJ Assault…
Oh, yeah, did I mention last time I danced with the Cheetah (when their beats were banging at Casa da Matriz) the room was filled with the presence and sounds of none other than guest Dj Sany Pitbull??? No big deal. These guys know what’s fresh, no joke, learn Portuguese and scope out their bloggerific.
Dancing Cheetah round two goes on all through May on the 3rd, 10th, 17th, 24th and the 31st.
P.S. If you are in Rio and need a reason to celebrate, VICE magazine is hitting the streets of the city blessed by the statue of J.C. Until that actually happens, check out the newest .com.br!
Here´s a Joao Brasil mix for your eyes and ears..

I’m finding myself to be more confrontational with COMPLETE strangers lately.
The other day I told my neighbour to get a new personality.
I was thinking of seeking some professional advice, but I decided to just watch some TV. Oh man that Theo Huxtable just kills me.

Sex Party, Let’s Have One
I have been contemplating the end of the world a lot.
I’ve decided for peace of mind perhaps, that it will not be one big nuclear blast but more of a wild sex-zombie fuck fest as David Cronenberg envisioned it in his debut feature, Shivers.
Sex Party are originally from Red Deer, Alberta where they created quite the stir. They have recently relocated to Vancouver.
They sound like the lovechild of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs & The Rapture if they were to hook up and have a hot night of passion.
This Saturday, Winnie Cooper presents one of the most exciting new bands in town at our No More Strangers night, along with the one man keytar sensation, Keytar Warrior!!
Sex Party – Ba By
Sex Party – Edit
