Next Friday, January 10th, marks the FIFTH anniversary of our little party we call RENDEZVOUS! Join us as we welcome special guests Todd Gilchrist & Trevor Baade! First, our ol' pal Todd returns to drop, what we're sure will be, another amazing set of horror-disco!

Expect to hear sonic gems from around the world.

The RENDEZVOUS! Holiday Party featuring...UMBERTO!!

Before we all wind down for the holidays join us on Friday, December 13th for our final Rendezvous! of the year! This special Friday the 13th we welcome special guest UMBERTO for an exclusive (and rare) DJ set!! We are absolutely thrilled to have signore Umberto gracing the decks at RENDEZVOUS! as we are all fans of his giallo inspired synth sounds. Our good friend and Dam-Funk collaborator I, CED is also going to pop down for a set . This is not to be missed! 

Meanwhile, click here to read what Pitchfork had to say about Umberto's latest covers of John Carpenter's "Christine" and "Chariots of Pumpkins" (recently released by our friends at Death Waltz Recording Co.)

As for visuals? Of course we will be screening two giallo and cult erotica films immediately following our 8PM screening of Lucio Fulci's 1982 holiday classic, 'The New York Ripper' on the huge projection screen!

It's #ItalianHorrorWeek on Instagram!

As you can probably imagine, I was very geeked when I found out that @fulciman12 started a fun little thing on Instagram for us Italian horror nerds which he aptly titled #ItalianHorrorWeek. Of course, I just HAD to join in on the fun. Here are my first three posts. By the way, do you follow me yet? If not, I'm @djalfonso on both Instagram and Twitter.

RENDEZVOUS! With I, CED & Marten Riese...THIS FRIDAY!

Join us THIS Friday, November 8th as we welcome L.A.-based producer I, CED and direct (literally) from Hamburg, B-Music's Marten Riese! I, CED works with many of L.A. musical luminaries such as Dâm-Funk as well as our own AM (check out his AM & Shawn Lee remix!). He brings with him a deep knowledge (& crate) of funk, library, and funky soundtracks. Expect to be blown away! We are also thrilled to welcome B-Music Hamburg DJ Marten Riese! As I'm sure you all know, the B-Music collective is a globe spanning team of "psychedelic librarians and cosmic-pop-quiz-elitists" and we are always terribly humbled when anyone from the B-Music family play with us. Expect to hear sonic gems from around the world. As always, we will also be screening two giallo and cult erotica films immediately after our 8PM screening of neo-giallo classic AMER on the huge projection screen!
