A Brooklyn Life

I hate to admit it, but we had some serious equipment havoc this week. Jon G was working on another energetic slammer for you, but the damn soundcard on this laptop kept munging the mix. It would’ve taken hours to fix it so we decided to go with a back-up this week.  In Jon’s place, we bring you Attitude City, a DJ duo (Karl Frankowski and Jeff Dubois) from "The Twin Cities" in "The Land of a Thousand Lakes".

Jeff, Karl and company have been throwing a successful series of parties and weeklies around Minneapolis. We planned on introducing them to you over the Labor Day weekend with an exclusive mix, but instead, today you get a taste of what’s to come. You’ll find their styles aligned with Bethany’s, with tastes of Italo, synth-pop, house classics and other robot-machine-funk rhythms. Enjoy!
