Casino Carnivàle

The Carnivale is back in town for one night only at the South Lake Union Underground Speakeasy. Join us for a fun-filled night of games, music, dancing, burlesque and more!

If you attended this glamerous extravaganza last year you know the drill. If not.... picture it.... it is the year 2030 and you are dressed to the nines for the casino on Luminous Flux! Stop by the Space Virgin bar to wet your shiney lips with an interstellar cosmic cocktail. Then will you make your way to the zero-gravity dancefloor where disco babes from outer space are getting down? Or will you jetpack up to the radioactive casino to try your luck? Everyone's a winner here, and if you play your cards right you just might leave the Carnivale with a fabulous prize!

THE 7th ANNUAL MY BLOODY VALENTINE IS SHAMELESS!!!!!
Friday, February 12th at Chop Suey
The Birthday Party where Valentine's Day meets Halloween

Have we really been at this for 7 years?! Hard to believe that an extra-curricular activity started back in 2003 has become a fully functioned production/promotion/performance collective with an eye for emerging electronic music and arts. This year's celebration features DRUMCELL (LA), J.PHLIP (SF), 214 (SEA) and sets by all of the Shameless residents, RECESS (SEA), MENAMI (SEA), JEN WOOLFE (SF), ROBB GREEN (SF), LEVI CLARK (SEA), ADLIB (SEA) and Shameless' own MC ANTON BOMB (SEA). Heart-shaped pinata smashing at midnight, dress to express!

In the spirit of Shameless' mantra (that is, "keeping it weird"), Joe B and Miles bring it beautifully over the top with this promo video.

Carry over from 2009

It's been over a month and I still listen to this track over and over again. L-Vis 1990 is the one to watch in 2010.



The breakdown at the 4 minute point just kills me each time. Do I laugh, dance or both?

Shameless XXXmas Parties 2009

I don't know if it's the spiked egg nog, the upcoming days off from work or maybe the impending doom of relatives coming into town that often makes the last Saturday before Christmas a serious contender for party night of the year.

This year, we're thrilled to be returning to the See Sound Lounge after a long hiatus. As a resident DJ since they first opened the doors over 6 years ago, I've watched the Lounge transform from a fresh new venue in Belltown to a well established and respected haven for quality electronic music. I'm sure it helps that one of the owners is a DJ himself. Details such as top notch equipment and good sound are obviously valued. A healthy balance of top local DJs and high profile out of town bookings helps to keep the vibe fresh, while consistently serving up one amazing party after another. See Sound Lounge is a one of a kind cosmopoliton venue with a clean, minimalistic design that appeals to a wide audience.

However, this Saturday December 19th it's going to get dirty. Both Levi Clark and I will be holding down the decks while MC Anton Bomb brings his magic to the mic. Levi is also planning to bring down his electric guitar to use as a midi controller off and on throughout the night. We're excited to be returning to the See Sound Lounge and hope that you'll come join us in our BELLTOWN INVASION!!






Plus, we'll be keeping the party going at the Monkey Loft later on. Resident Shameless DJs Menami and Adlib will be joined by special guests Kris Moon and Kristina Childs. Ms. Childs killed it at the last Hive Mind Halloween and we're looking forward to hearing her throw down for us again.

Kris Moon is one of my all time favorite local DJs. Unfortunately he hasn't been local for the past couple of years which makes this appearance even more special. He was the founder of Robo.Trash, a club night that inspired me to expand my own personal scope as a DJ. He started the Division email list years ago which has grown tremendously and represents electronic music DJs, producers and promoters all over the Pacific Northwest. He's also one of the originators of the Laptop Battle, a concept that has caught on all over the country. The Laptop Battle is taking place this Friday December 18th at Chop Suey.


In addition, Kris Moon has a weekly radio show call Moon Bass every Wednesday on KBGA 89.9 FM Missoula. Here's a link and tracklist from his show last week...


From Kris: "Invasion of the UK Funky! I've been keeping my eye on this sound and finally got together a nice little selection that I highlight in the first hour, then it's on to some dubstep and the slow fade into mellowness. Remember Skylab? #1 is incredible, find yourself that album... enjoy...."

Scratchmaster Joe's International Lounge

2009 may go down in part as a year that reintroduced the concept of the listening party to Seattle’s nightlife. Bars and lounges the likes of Grey Gallery, Triple Door’s Musicquarium, and Nijo have increasingly invited DJ collectives such as Made Like A Tree, Sweatbox, and Shameless to set up shop and play sets that, while undeniably uptempo, focus more on the craft of the DJ as selector and record connoisseur. While people still dance, there are those in attendance that don’t just trainspot – they carefully listen and study each track and how they’re mixed into one another, how they’re sequenced, timed, and so forth. You could almost say that it’s the DJ version of chamber music.

Scratchmaster Joe’s International Lounge at Grey Gallery every Sunday night is certainly one of the most adventurous, deliberately indulgent, and consistently entertaining listening parties in Seattle. A notorious staple of the Seattle DJ world for many years, Joe is a world-class turntablist, having competed many times in DMC competitions, and is one half of the amazing bass duo Famous Players with former Seattlite/current New Yorker Sam Kirkland (who helped found Robo.trash back in the day with Kris Moon and others).

Now playing every Sunday at Grey Gallery from 7pm to 11pm, Scratchmaster Joe digs deeeeeeeeeep into his considerable vinyl collection and mixes and scratches at many different speeds everything from dirty breaks and vintage jazz to 60s-era psychedelic and 50s bop in combinations that you’ve never, ever thought of before. A friend who accompanied me to a Scratchmaster session last Sunday never heard him before, and said as we left that Joe never tries to get people to dance – he compels them to just listen.

This Sunday, Scratchmaster Joe’s guest is Garek Druss, a noise artist and has been part of bands such as Dull Knife, Story of Rats, & Heavy Teeth (more on Garek here)

Here’s the event page for this Sunday’s set. Go.
