Abstract Thought SPR11 Look Party x JPayne Grad Party

As some of you may very well know Abstract Thought is the pioneer of the “Look Party”. The idea was developed by the founder, Bill Nearn (@BillyAbstract) where he altered the traditional Listen Party most of us are familiar with. Since its origin Abstract Thought has shaped the popular look party into a conducive environment where the point of sale and nightlife are enjoyed under one roof. However this particular event also entailed the celebration of one of the brand’s proprietors in accomplishing yet another  milestone; we would like to take the time to say congratulations once more to JPayne (@MrCEO_JLP) in acquiring his Masters Degree clap for em. We would like to say thank you to all who have continually supported us since day 1 of the grind. Be sure to check out the site www.ImAbstract.com and view pictures of the event below…

I had a chance to meet new faces and spend time with familiar faces, good times all around. Check out a few pics …

 

New Orleans Bounce

Some time around March 2010 I stumbled across a you tube video where I witnessed bounce music first hand. I had initially been introduced to bounce with the emergence of 5th Ward Webbie music but I’ve since labeled it as the watered down version (that which is influenced by mainstream regulation). I won’t deny that the you tube video’s prompted further investigation of bounce music but none-the-less as a DJ I’m always searching for music to move the crowd. ***PSA this mix is for the twerkers, shones, boppers, and mooks***
