He is a fully paid up member of the new wave of experimental beat makers…alongside the likes of Flying Lotus and FlyamSam .
The self-professed Animal-style DJ, Gaslamp Killer — a reference to his hometown of San Diego and its beach-brah’s Gaslamp bar district — has been holding it down at the front counter of LA’s Turntable Lab. His real home, however, is behind the turntables, where his wild style takes DJing into the realm of freak fest psychedelia.
Gaslamp Killer DJ sets are something else… Bass that feels like someone is sitting inside your stomach rearranging your internal organs and drops so heavy you feel like you are falling down a well wearing a pair of Smeg fridges as earrings. His brutal mix of Dubstep, Hendrix, Futuristic Hip Hop, Leftfield Electronica and Dilla are delivered with a truly eccentric energy that one might describe as a kind of hybrid that would include Animal from Sesame Street, Einstein and Doc from Back to the Future all conducting the crowd in a truly passionate, energetic and intensely captivating way.
I cannot tell you how much you have to witness this…Tonight at The Hare & Hounds. Details here.
