Meet DJ Mza at the RENDEZVOUS! on Wednesday, June 2nd!


Join us on Wednesday, June 2nd as our very special guest, DJ Mza (Jazzercise, Soul Circle Radio, LA) will be dropping an exclusive ALL 45's set! Expect to be taken on a musical quest filled with soulful global sounds - old stuff, new stuff, good stuff! Your illegal resident aliens will no doubt be hijacking the decks from time to time to ruin the vibe with their mind-bending selections of Turkish & Persian protest pop, psychedelia, space-age cosmic weirdness, Euro soundtracks, and carelessly crafted re-edits. We will also be screening two classic Euro b-movies: police crime caper “Revolver” (Italy, 1972) & French spy thriller “Furia A Bahia Pour OSS 117” (1965).

RENDEZVOUS! is tonight! (Wednesday, April 7)


Lent is over, spring break is here, and it's time for you to return to your heathen ways. Let's drink & watch movies that were banned by the Vatican! On Wednesday, April 7th, we will be screening "All'onorevole Piacciono Le Donne" (Italy, 1972) & "I Am Curious" (Sweden, 1968). I will also be handing out copies of my latest mix CD, "Sound Library Mix, Vol. 2." It comes in a snazzy paste on mini LP sleeve and is mastered by Smokratz himself!

Your resident DJs will be providing the soundtrack for the evening, and will include all your favorite psych, library, soundtracks, ethnic fuzz, and even a little live space echo!
