Wow, that's a hell of a title! I was also thinking of calling this write-up, "What a ton of people decided to do after the Lotus show". Around 2am the sleepy little diner that doesn't sleep on Saturday nights got a sudden 30 person boost, which was unfortunate for them. They didn't get to experience Properly Chilled! But why don't I start at the, um..., start.

I got to Quintessence (11 New Scotland Ave in Albany) right at 10pm. There weren't a lot of people there yet, but Albany is a late night crowd. Brandon (Properly Chilled) was warming everything up and I use that phrase because when he got off the whole place was en fuego! He's an amazing DJ that appeals to everyone including the guy that, I thought, was an undercover cop. He was by himself, not drinking, and paying no attention to the hot chicks Brandon had whipped into a jiggiling frenzy on the dancefloor. Make sure to stop by his site www.properlychilled.com

If you knew what House Music was in 2006, you no doubt heard Hustle & Flow's "Life". It got crushed by every major DJ ever. Brian Anderson & Ryan Kick released some other music together, but none of it had the signature saxaphone and hot house vocal work like this. They pull from all areas of the music: jackin, tech, deep, etc. They brought nothin but prime rib with extra sizzle. Which made the arrival of the next wave of fans that much sweeter. The whole vibe of the music changed with the whole vibe of the place. I didn't get home till 5am We had to stay until the end and not because they borrowed my gear, but because it was that sick.

Special thanks to Lazer & Blazer, Brandon, & Ryan. This is their night and they threw on he'll of a party. If you have pics from the show, email or send them to our Dropbox (over on the right there) so we can share them.
