FOOL’S GOLD

Filmed earlier this month in Toronto.

Go and download this great “warmup” mix from Andrew Ross of Nacho Lovers for Old Gold Boutique. Says Andrew, “basically an early night club warm-up mix. start your night off right. none of that womp womp womp womp…not in my house.” Indeed!

This Thursday (2/11) in Toronto, Jokers Of The Scene and Nacho Lovers will be going up against Drop The Lime and AC Slater in a showdown of epic proportions. Bass! More bass! Free admission! RSVP at Scionnation.ca/rsvp to party with the gang.

Check this handy guide to everywhere the Fool’s Gold family will be rocking on NYE, from dueling Macklo Bros in Los Angeles to the Suzan in Tokyo to Congorock in warm and sunny Toronto. Bring on 2010! MMX is a damn fine Roman numeral. (more…)

Check out this brand new mix from Nacho Lovers on the Curb Crawlers blog. Tracklist after the jump. (more…)

The latest addition to the FG catalog is Laidback Luke and Lee Mortimer’s club detonator “Blau!” - grab it now on Beatport!

The release comes backed with remixes by our very own Nacho Lovers and LA Riots, as well as techmeister Noob and - with two different versions! - UK pal Doorly. These tunes have quickly become DJ favorites, but don’t take our word for it. Just ask Afrojack: “kicks donkeyboner!!!!”

If you’re a fan of good taste - and lets face it, you are reading this here blog - head over to Beatport and check the latest DJ charts from Nacho Lovers, Greenmoney and Malente for their current personal favorites and recommended jams. More charts from the FG fam coming soon…

We threw two parties in NYC to celebrate the label’s 2nd anniversary during this past CMJ fest - if you missed em, you missed out! Fortunately, we scoured the interweb to collect all the photo galleries, etc (hit us up if you have any more).

Check out Karmaloop’s great recap of Night #1 at 88 Palace above, which featured sets by Kingdom, Donnis (joined onstage by fellow ATLien Pill), Treasure Fingers, Sammy Bananas (who even rocked some Telephoned tracks with partner Maggie Horn), Trackademicks and the Honor Roll crew, and - a first for FG! - live band performances by Vega and The Suzan. Hi-Fi Cartel, Metromix, and The Culture Of Me got some pics, Billboard spoke to A-Trak for a video interview, and Beatcakes had a nice little blog post highlighting The Suzan (”probably one of the best shows I have seen in my life”).

For Night #2 we went with an all-DJ lineup at N8 in Brooklyn, featuring Jokers Of The Scene, LA Riots, Nacho Lovers and extended fam Udachi + Jubilee (Jamie from the xx was slated to play as well, but his band’s set ran late - we’ll get him in the mix soon enough!). You can check pics over at Driven By Boredom. Special thanks to Chicago’s own Thunder Horse for providing live projections / bugged visuals for both nights of festivities! See you for the 3-year bash soon…

Check out Nacho Lovers’ remix of Cubic Zirconia’s “Fuck Work” soundtracking this fashion week clip of Versace’s spring collection. We always knew they were fashionable lads!

Todays Canadian announcements continue! This Friday in Toronto you can catch both halves of Nacho Lovers rocking two amazing parties. Andrew will be playing his Acid City monthly at Wrongbar with Brandon Sek of the ace Curb Crawlers blog, while Scott is DJing alongside techno legend Kevin Saunderson at the Social for Night Trackin. Flyers for both after the jump! (more…)
