TMJ News
Finally there's an order developing out of the chaos that has been TMJ over the past few months. There's a permanent new space that can accommodate the entire party, all at once. The party will continue at Sputnik as well. But now the key is to get together a schedule that Brooklyn Queers can set their clocks to. So here it is:
1st Saturdays: TMJ at Sputnik
3rd Saturdays: TMJ at The Bell House
Every Friday Night: BK's freshest DJ's at Fresh Fridays in Bushwick.

Tikka's Opening for Pharoahe Monch : Saturday : October 17, 2009
Sputnik, is after all a Hip Hop centric venue, so come see what happens when TMJ's resident DJ Tikka gets in the mix before Pharoahe Monch. Our DJ's are opening for some really accomplished Hip Hop artists, thanks to Sputnik. Thanks Sputnik!
The Queerist Wrote us UP
Thanks Queerist!
Check this out.
And the party people last TMJ were HOT.
Thanks Shay!
TMJ wants to let folks know that we're having our next TMJ at Tandem, in Bushwick. This is a new venue, that deserves our attention and support. It's two sisters starting up a club space on the Jefferson stop on th L train. It's the type of project that we should feel good about putting queer cash into. They have queer staff, are focused on having diverse programming, and have a genuine interest in supporting queer programming and people.
We are also looking at another Gowanus venue, The Bell House, as a possible new home. The space is massive, but we want to see how the crowd feels about it before committing.
We've got some video clips from our first anniversary bash. Yalini Dream, Princess Lockaroo, and Ganessa James graced us with their fabulous spoken word, dance, and musical performances.
And TMJ veterans, She-Dick, are simply... amazing. We have been in love with them since the first time they played for us at Sputnik in the Spring.

Kingdom's List
KINGDOM'S TOP 10 3/13/09
Kingdom - Mind Reader ft. Shyvonne
I finally finished this new track with a very talented young singer name Shyvonne. It's a 4x4 heavy bass banger but is also definitely an R&B song at the same time. Hopefully this will be seeing official release soon!
Crazy Cousinz - Bongo Jam (L-Vis 1990 & Bok Bok's refix)
Up and coming London-based producers L-Vis 1990 & Bok Bok have created this bass-heavy remix of the UK Funky anthem, probably the biggest club song in London right now.
Piddy Py - Giggle Riddim
Possibly the best Bassline / 4x4 Grime instrumental ever. Insane hyperactive wobble bass and a menacing baby giggle sample mixed with gunshot clicks.
Pitbull - Floor On Fire (Feat. Machel Montana & Lil Jon)
Pitbull always genre-hops but I didn't expect him to do a Soca track. This is a high energy banger. Hearing Lil Jon on a Soca beat is a little disarming but it works.
Jamie Foxx - Blame It (DJ Tedsmooth Remix)
They're playing this every other minute in Hot97 and Power105 right now. This remix combines the horn part from C-Murder's classic "Down for my Ni**as" with an old breakbeat.
Serani - No Games (Unfinished Business Riddim)
A heartbreaking yet danceable track from Reggae crooner Serani, also a big hit on NYC radio. Whenever I play it people say he sounds like Tracy Chapman!
Lenny Fontana - Spirit of the Sun (Bump And Flex Mix)
Just when I thought I'd heard every organ-bass driven 2-Step Garage track, I discovered this one, complete with beautiful uplifting diva vox.
Monica - Knock Knock
This is an impeccable R&B song. Monica and Missy work well as a producer / vocalist team I think. When I drop this my crew and I are immediately going crazy singing every word and ad-lib.
Roska - Elevated Level
I wonder if UK Funky producers realize that they are channeling first wave Reggaeton?
Kill Franzy - Uuuh!
Juke was born in Chicago but I'm obsessed with where Belgian producer Kill Frenzy has gone with it. Abstracted Juke-Rave with lion roar samples. 160 BPM!!!
