ohh trust me i worked hard enough and got ed way to many times,
yeah i complain about chicago scene..bout gigs ? no i don't.. i really don't care anymore..
but hey question for you?
if chicago is so great and the scene is so fantastic why did you move to L.A if you are so passionate about music and had so many friends you could bring to your gigs etc etc. |
because i'm starting a sub label of crosstown rebels (and working on an album for the sub label) and doing events with a group of like minded people who wanted me to come out here to move forward. we have a great studio and afterparty house which really helps any local scene and gives visiting djs a better experience.
some of our upcoming events we are booking/promoting
july 14 dj three @ mns
july 25 mathew jonson @ cinespace
aug 8th simon baker and jamie jones
aug 10th jamie jones @ standard rooftop
aug 30th dan berkson + james what
sept 5 dominik eulberg @ the room
not to mention playing on the main stage w artists like sander kleinenberg, sebastien leger, and booka shade in the next few weeks at avalon where droog are residents, and i play frequently.
some of our recent events we promoted
martin landsky
phonique
konrad black, guido schneider and seth troxler
jamie jones, clive henry, seth troxler
troy pierce
dan ghenacia, marc antona, shonky, jamie jones in miami
the ability to work on events of this caliber, and to work with a label like crosstown rebels was too much to pass up.
i love chicago, and think it's an awesome city that was extremely difficult to leave. |

Lee you are just proving my point with this..
L.A has lot more to offer.
let me ask you one more question?
Does L.A have any radio station that plays non commercial edm?
Congrats on work with the crosstown rebels great stuff..
Damian Lazarus is still one of my fav djs (which by the way when he was in Chicago at Soundbar maybe 40 people show up - the stuff he played was so ing good another addon to the list how great scene in Chicago is.) |

Amen.
This is really, really getting out of hand. Put the shovel away, Pete. We get it, you're disgruntled about bookings in Chicago - but making the scene you have here for little to no good reason, as well as personally attacking a kid who's basically known for having been one of the hardest working locals Chicago has ever known, isn't going to magically make things all better for you.
At the end of the day, Foss is where he is now (and was where he was in Chicago) because he sounds like Lee Foss, not like any number of the literally dozens of locals who all the play the bog-standard techno and tech-house that permeates 90% of every tracklist you see right now.
When you've worked for years to hone a sound people will recognize instantly as "Peteone" as well as manage to have those folks fill the clubs on the nights you're playing, my guess is more gigs will follow. Until then, it doesn't really sound like you have a leg to stand on. |
