Hollywood Night Life: CONTROL at Avalon 1.21.11 :: Le Castle Vania, Toy Selectah & Blake Miller

Le Castle Vania: Hailing from hip-hop heavy Atlanta, Le Castle Vania was as much influenced by what he didn’t want to listen to as what he did. His music is self-described as ‘life-affirming Euro-electro, it's stroboscopic sleaze-pop that sparkles and shines like Champagne at an orgy.’ Quite a mouthful but with releases for the likes of Dim Mak and iheartcomix and more blog support than you or I could ever hope for, Le Castle Vania has clearly struck a chord. Toy Selectah: Toy Selectah is a “mix-master wizard,” according to his biography on Mad Decent’s artist roster. He has been producing and remixing for over a decade, and has worked alongside an eclectic group of artists including Morrissey, The Faint, and Diplo. In 2005, Toy Selectah helped establish Universal Music Group’s Urban Latino Label, Machete Music, and now lives in Monterrey, Mexico, working as the Creative Director and Director of A&R to his own label, Sones del Mexside. Blake Miller is the lead singer of the popular indie band, Moving Units. He has broadened his musical horizons in the past couple of years, DJing under the Blake Miller moniker and also promoting his Los Angeles art collective called Love Search, and his dancey, energetic DJ sets have earned him a reputation of getting any dancefloor crowded.   LE CASTLE VANIA   Cee-Lo - Fuck You (Le Castle Vania Remix) Le Castle Vania - Nobody Gets Out Alive La Roux - In For The Kill (Le Castle Vania Remix) Le Castle Vania in Brazil Tumblr TOY SELECTAH   Bestia (Toy Selectah MexMore Remix) Watagatapitusberry (Toy Selectah MexMore Remix) Adios Gilipollas Mix Sept10 Toy Selectah's Vampire Weekend Contra Megamix on Pitchfork LEGIT LOUNGE   CODEBREAKER WE'R ALL FREAKS ED GOLD   FRENZY AFTER DARK   We start at 2am Friday night (technically it’s Saturday morning) & it definitely will be by the time we manage to crawl out of the place.
