Every week, photographer Joshua Cobos shoots a roll of film just for us. He picks the best 13 photos and we post them here, and it’s called “Bad Blood with Joshua Cobos.” Here’s what Joshua has to say about this week’s installment:

Ash & I took a trip to Sausalito, the ferry ride there helped me visualize an alternate reality that I’m hoping to create in a future collection. Bits and gasps can be seen here, the last photograph being an example of that vision. The Matildas were on tour, we happened to have room for them to stay at our house during that time. The middle of this set is a familiar theme of mine, patterns, more specifically how all patterns seem to have this organic natural state to them, which may reflect on my interest in sea life & primordial creatures. Other unspecified portraits were taken around downtown or Chinatown in celebration of the Year of the Snake.

Thanks, Joshua! (Can’t wait for this alternate reality thing!) Eight more shots after the jump: (more…)

As you might know if you’ve paid attention to this blog ever, Primo is basically our favorite DJ, and over the next 48 hours or so you’ve got three opportunities to see him do his thing (and he’s very versatile, so his “thing” will vary wildly at each event).

The first is all soul, the last is all house — and the middle one is a little bit of both and a lot of everything in between. Click any of the posters to head to the Facebook invites for further info:

RSVP and invite your friends to Time Warp!

RSVP and invite your friends to 2 Men Will Move You!

UPDATE: Holy cow, he’s doing the late shift at Church tonight too!

American Tripps is growing up so fast! From the official invite:

➠TIME WARP➠
starring
➠PRIMO➠

This party marks American Tripps’ 1-year anniversary, so we figured to make it really special we’d better get Primo (Oldies Night, Nightbeat, Slow Jams, 2 Men Will Move You, Soft Opening). Here’s the rundown:

• FREE PBR from 5-6pm
• Time warpy stuff on the big screen
• Four ping pong tables
• Primo on the decks from 8-11pm
• Plenty of dance floor
• Food carts outside
• After party at Coffee Bar across the street

And now, Primo tells us what this whole “TIME WARP” business is all about:

A DANCE TRIP THRU DECADES OF THE CRAZIEST DANCE MUSIC FROM THE ’50s thru PRESENT DAY!
A one time only dance event all vinyl TIME MACHINE PARTY
Starting with the raw r’n'b and rock ‘n’ roll of the 50′s and sixties moving through rare sixties soul and motown with a layover in psychedelic funk and the soulful sounds of ’72 before we board the disco train with a stop in the disco of italy and Europe for some sounds of the truly cosmic variety ultimately culminating in a crazy wall of chicago acid house and present day rave sounds, ALL IN 3 SHORT HOURS……! NOT 2 B MISSED!!!

Yup! RSVP and invite your friends!

Oh and if you still haven’t seen how this party works (or what an amazing space Z Space is) here are a pair of sick animated GIFs (courtesy of Ulla Havenga / Z Space):

Myles you know from our favorite song ever and lots of viral videos and other weird projects, and Primo you know because we talk about his dance parties and other antics all the time, so if you want to dance the night away after one too many (and by that I mean two) LAC margaritas, the Knockout is the place to be tomorrow night.
