Play It Loud! Live Disco & Boogie Master Mix

All the proceeds for January's Play It Loud were donated to the UNICEF Haiti Relief fund, and with so many quality parties happening that night, we couldn't have been happier with the turnout. It was an amazing night of disco, donations and decadence, and we look forward to pushing the pedal this year!

Special thanks to our new wizard-of-visuals, Mr. Gabriel Comrie-Pepin.

Join us in February as Play It Loud delivers another double header, with the house-dancer battle royal - New York City Jacks, followed by the disco party you have grown to love!

New Years Eve was an all out blast!

And it wouldn't have been possible without everyone at Public Assembly, Renegade Project for the thunderous sound system, Gabriel Comrie-Pepin for the visuals, Morgan Geist for jumping on the decks with the residents, and most of all YOU!

Thank you for an incredible 2009, we look forward to bringing the boogie to you in 2010.

The podcast is up, so feel free to recall all the action here.

We look forward to seeing you all in January for our first Disco throw-down of the year.

December's New York City Jacks House Dance Battle was incredible! Special thanks to Jaze-Art for putting it together, DJ Chenzo for the battle's soundtrack, Nemesis for hosting, and to Conrad, Tony Bones and Cricket for judging. We also thank all those talented competitors for battling it out hard and we look forward to hosting many more at Play It Loud!

After the competition PIL residents Doug Gomez and Son of Sound joined Jaze-Art on the decks for a night of throw-back House, Disco, Soul, Funk and other goodies to lose your mind to.

Now..on to our big New Years Eve announcement!

Two-thirds of the Play It Loud trio brought their New York Downtown-Disco flair to the decadent, beach-dwelling, under dressed masses in Miami on Halloween night!

PIL's very own Doug Gomez of Drrtyhaze and Henry Maldonado (aka Son Of Sound) delivered a soundtrack of late 70s Disco, early 80s Boogie Funk, Italo-disco gems, and New York Fun House classics.

The musical bed created a comfy place to lay the 1970s porn-themed Halloween bash "The Other Hollywood", located at The Aware House; downtown Miami's live music venue / artist gallery / nightclub.

Check out Doug Gomez and Son of Sound in the mix and we will see you back at our underground home in Public Assembly on November 14th.

Special thanks to all the musicians of Arthur's Landing and to Nomi (Hercules & Love Affair and Jessica 6).

We commemorated the spirit and legacy of Arthur Russell with tons of energy!

Arthur's Landing jammed out to Loose Joints classics, Nomi added her vocal flair to "Is It All Over My Face", and after the audience thought it couldn't get any better - Doug Gomez, Darshan Jesrani and Son of Sound doused the masses with their selection of Disco, Boogie and everything in between!

Join us for more Saturday November 14th!
