So last night was just wonderful. The 2nd night of Podcast Hotel featured DJ's spinning some amazing sets, from Tribal House, to Breaks, House and Hard Dance. Many thanks to Jacob London, +Russ and especially Hardscience co-owner Ryan Alexander. It was great to see people who might not have heard undergound dance music grooving and checking out what the DJ's had to offer.

Many thanks to Jeff the sound guy, Alex for putting it on, Joe Klein for the wicked intros and all the bloggers who will hopefully be posting about the night shortly.

It has been a couple of weeks so I thought I would post a little update. After a wonderful trip to Alaska, we've taken a little time off to cath our breath. Now we are rested and ready for the Feb March madness that is fast approaching.

Coming up first is the Podcast Hotel on Feb 24-25. This is a 2 day conference on the technology and techniques behind a successful podcast, and how independant artists can utilize pod/videocasting as a way to self-promote. Hardscience was asked to be involved in hosting an "electronic" lounge for Fri night. We have two Hardscience family members performing, Ryan Alexander and +Russ, and headlining is Seattle's wonderful Jacob London. The music will go from 9pm-1am, costs $10 or is free with a Podcast Hotel badge. Venue info can be found on the Podcast Hotel site. Bring your camera/recorder/camcorder because there will be facilities on site to get your content online and to the people.

The next weekend March 4th Ian K heads back down to Los Angeles to play for the Addicted 2 Year Anniversary party. If you are in the LA region and are plannign on going to this, hit me up on our forums. I love traveling for gigs and LA is a fun city to play in.

A couple weeks after that is Gettin Lucky, March 17th. UK Hardcore master Robbie Long is headlining, with Hardscience's MC Verbal supporting on the Mic. This event is being brought to the people by Pussycat Productions, who along with Funshine and Check 6 Productions are one of the few production companies that actively support Hardcore.
