All righty all you Seattlite party hounds. There’s a party tonight happening down at Chop Suey in honor of Ms. Tamara Weikel (djtamara) turning 30 years old. Those of you who know me know that I always speak highly of Tamara’s musical abilities and being all around righteous babe person should hop in your cars, cabs, carts or rollerblades and skedaddle down to Chop Suey at 9pm.
According to Sam Mickens in “The Stranger” (free Seattle weekly):
“Seattle’s own OG DJ Tamara has already, at the near dawn of her third decade, enjoyed an artistic career of astonishing volume and ridiculous diversity. A voraciously busy club DJ, multimedia artist, improvising musician, and lots of other shiz, Tamara has devoted her young life to an insanely passionate embrace of performance and composition in a far-flung swath of modes and settings. Apropos to the hostess’s free-range artistic involvements, this nightâ€â€a massive party in celebration of the DJ’s 30th birthdayâ€â€features modern soul, performance art, mashup DJs, electronic producers, free improvisers, and probably too much more to properly list. Co-headliner Reggie Watts has, like Tamara, managed a musical career that veers from the most pop-wielding, sweaty R&B to all stripes of experimental and improvised music.”
All in all seeing Tamara as well as Reggie Watts, Jacob London, KRNL.Panic, DJ Freddy King of Pants and the Degenerate Art Ensemble is going to be the event of the year if not the millenium so far (hyperbole is my strong suit).
