Once again at Room 86 on Saturday night, another edition of Controversy will be taking place. This time around, we welcome some local house and disco favorites. Headlining the night is Plastic Love, which is one half blog/radio show and one half dance party machine. Also on the bill is DAMB, that guy from Northern California who won over props from the likes of Sinden, Wolfy, Harvard Bass and more. In addition to this good-looking pair of headliners, we have LA’s Evan Stalker , who we recently did an interview with regarding his success with releasing a track on [...]

I do hate it when colonials get the spelling wrong. It's Parlour chaps. Anyhow, a new release out on 4 August on DJs Are Not Rockstars. This comes with a range of remixes, including Bird Peterson with some B More. But it's the original you should stick with. This has a South American funked up samba feel with a bit of swing which gets bigger and bigger. Summer party music. Listen only. http://soundcloud.com/damb Blurb: Rhythmically seasoned DJ Sean Slaughter grew into punk and eventually dove into housemusic [...]

Produced by Christopher Just and New York clubbing legend Larry Tee, elegant driven electro has returned onto very airwaves courtesy of these two ultra-fine remixes. Viennese club promoter, performance artist, musician and vocalist Mel Merio , stems an aptly, uniquely made Original, but within the complexities of those mere originals sometimes, a blossoming butterfly can still arise. Mister Krueger trips n’ flip-switches the original electro feel in perfect third and quarter regions, closely followed by D.A.M.B , dropping short but sweet, bass friendly stabs - oozing professional craft, and Berlin city [...]

Last week we had an exclusive mix from Brooklyn based Trap.Avoid ! This week we have San Francisco's D.A.M.B. !
I'm only doing this as a D.A.M.B. favor, cause I think this guy is super cool and a compa at heart. In all honesty he's grown a lot from the beginning of us posting his stuff up on BigStereo and his new tracks bring limbo and lambada to the future weirdos. Expect bigger things from this guy, if he doesn't get too lazy or big headed. By the way he's too pretentious to let us give away his new "hit single", so here's the D.A.M.B. soundcloud bullshit we all hate. I love you Shaun. [...]
D.A.M.B. - "WAITING" by DAMBTRACKS I first came across D.A.M.B. when I heard that our very own Roledex would be doing a remix for a forthcoming release of his. After dropping by his Soundcloud, I found a number of really cool tracks, including the above Waiting. With remixes from Mom and Dad, LOL Boys and Wolfie, the release (out later this month on DJs Not Rockstars) is definitely a really big one! Be on the look out for this guy in the coming months, he's got some definite [...]

Tunawax is the 2010 Intercontinental Dryhump Champions. But rather than hold it over your heads, we're giving back…Finely picked dance tracks to go cotton to cotton with. Shaun Slaughter ( not to be confused with Jessie Slaughter ) comes up with what is easily one of my favorite songs I've heard this year. Day-O being one of those guilty pleasures for me, and this (not really a) "remix" keeps a good amount of the originals vibe intact while inducing a chanty rhythmic calypso bongo groove all over the place. If I had [...]

Belgium duo Aeroplane have been known for their eclectic mix of seasonal vibes and warm-hearted synths. After seeing them for the first time at this years Coachella Festival , I could truly understand what these two were all about. Their newest single " We Can't Fly, " as heard on their BBC 500th Essential Mix , is a throwback jam reminiscent of all things summer. The full single is out July 5th on Wall of Sound . [...]

(photo credit: Richard Mosse ) Sacramento doesn't come to mind when thinking about tropical house, but DAMB (also known by his human Dj alias, Shaun Slaughter) is quickly changing that. Shaun's two track EP is receiving big support from the likes of Sinden, Dubbel Dutch, LOL Boys, Yolanda Be Cool, Riot Kid, and Larry Tee. Below you can find his signature original "Waiting" (as well as a remix from LA's Mom & Dad ) and b-sided jammer "Daylight." Be sure to keep an eye out for [...]

Nu borde det vara varmare än det är.. Vad hände med den globala uppvärmningen? Via Discodust hittade jag lite gött som sätter fart på sommarkänslorna. Det är D.A.M.B som använder Harry Belafonte för att infravärma oss stackars frusna svenska, smart.. D.A.M.B. – Daylight

it's a bit difficult to find the correct d.a.m.b. via google. it returns results for urban slang and acronyms for everything from deoxycholate amphotericin-b to the damb boards . no, this d.a.m.b. is interested in bass, state fairs, bongos, yelps, snares, other planets, hand claps, and all things tropical. he's grown discontent with merely throwing sacramento's most energetic parties (there are broken bones to prove it) and has moved on to producing music. seemingly keen to 'ethnic sounds', here is a sample of his most recent work. [...]

D.A.M.B. . I'm almost positive that Shaun Slaughter named his newest project after the first word someone says in reaction to hearing his tunes. This Californian's sound mirrors that of his Dirtybird neighbors in San Francisco, but with a bit more panache. Although they share similar qualities, Shaun's sound is, as he describes it, "Bass, Bongos, Yelps, Snares, Other Continents, Other Planets, Hand Claps, Time Signatures, Wobbling Synths, Friendship, Etc." I'd agree with that 100%. If you're into "Daylight", you might want to consider checking out his party in Sacramento called Fuck Fridays . It's in Sacramento. It's on [...]
