Madison Kiki

I’m at home. Yay. Jessica and Joia can’t come anymore and my money is dwindling, so I figured instead of staying in Chicago and spending more money, I could come home earlier and relax.

Madison is so quiet. I like coming to visit my mum but I definitely could not live here.

Tunes:
Slider & Expose – Hooked (track is in player)
Ed Oberon played this when he came to Chi and I was digging it. Sounds awesome out loud.

Have you guys listened to the Zero T Mix or the Hayze Mix that I posted recently? I listened to them while driving to Madison and they are wicked. Definitely check ’em out. 🙂

Windows Kiki

So I thought that my computer was fine and then my Windows somehow got corrupted and I couldn’t do a damn thing.  Boo.  Thank god for Pipeline.  He gave my laptop new life and also pointed me in the right direction to get a new keyboard so that he can replace it for me.  Yay.  Sorry external keyboard, you will no longer be needed.  It’s always a bonus to have a friend in the geek biz.

I’m going home this weekend and awfully excited about it.  It’s going to be quite the extravaganza at the African festival.  My people like to do it big yo.  😉  Jessica and Joia are coming with me.  I just like hanging out with my mum and eating good food and that’s the best thing that Madison, Wisconsin has to offer me.  Woot.

500 Days of Kiki

I apologise for my absence on Friday.  I sadly report that I spilled water on my laptop.  I have never darted so fast but alas it didn’t really help.  I should be grateful that it still works though.  It’s been drying for the past 3 days.  The keyboard is shot so I had to get an external one.  Fortunately it’s a wireless one so it’s not as annoying as it could be, but it’s still kind of annoying.

Smart Bar was cool.  I’m so used to playing gigs where me and my friends just sit around and drink so it’s nice to have gigs where people actually dance and they definitely do that at Smart Bar.  Not quite sure where these people come from cuz I never see them at Lava for the dnb shows there, but I am still grateful for their enthusiasm and appreciate their dancing. 🙂

I’ve had a pretty lovely weekend.  Sam and Katie are here so I’ve been enjoying really good meals and some good hang out sessions.

Yesterday I went to go see 500 Days of Summer with Melissa and Zora.  CUTE!  Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are my two favourite indie actors so it’s a double pleasure having them both be in the same film and they were adorable.  I loved the movie.  Fun fact:  I found out that the guy that directed the film went to my high school.  Not like oh in 1948 or whatever but like he was in the same year as my older brother and Melissa.  Melissa  knows him. (Melissa and I went to high school together but she was just two years older than me.)  I think as you get older you realise that at some point there’s a good chance that at least one person you went to high school or college with is going to be famous.  There’s at least 5 people that I knew during that period of my life (high school/college) that are famous.  Props to them.

Tunes:
Metrik – Time to Change (track is in player)
I was a huge fan of Stranger (also in player) last year, Spinn turned me on to it.  Metrik’s tunes give me that Video Killed The Radio Star feel.  Don’t ask me why.  LOL.  It’s not a bad thing.  Video Killed the Radio Star was my favourite song when I was like 5 and I still love it to this day.  Big up The Buggles.  Eek… my age is definitely showing!

Geez.  I must have missed you.  I’m all chatty cathy today. 🙂

Today’s Oldie:
Scorpio aka Dj Die & Roni SizeTroubleV Recordings 1997
This tune was one I loved to mix.  It’s definitely not a good stand alone tune but it’s fun to ride out mixes with.  I remember I mixed at a Minneapolis outdoor fest called Cedar Fest one year and it was so ridiculously hot.  It was a horrible gig as they had asked me to mix between the bands but the bands kept doing their sound checks while I was mixing and they were really loud and annoying as it was some weird rock station stage (I was the queen of getting random gigs back then.  LOL.) and it was like 95 degrees out and the tables were set up directly in the sun and my records were warping as I was mixing.  I kid you not.  I remember being annoyed that I had put my records in such hot heat for people that couldn’t even hear my set anyways.  This record suffered the most.  I turned it into an ashtray for the apartment as the warping was so bad I couldn’t even play it anymore.

Ready Steady Kiki

It’s raining.  It’s hard to be motivated when there’s gloomy clouds looming and a wet pavement.  My weekend was lovely.  Good friends, good food etc.  Dope.  Me and Caroline took a little trip to Bed Bath and Beyond and made over our bathroom and it looks awesome.  It’s the little things people, the little things. 🙂

It’s nice when I have one dnb event to go to in a week, but two?  Ed Oberon is at Shakedown on wednesday and I’m playing at Smart Bar on thursday.  Woot.  Also my friends Sam and Katie are coming to Chi for the weekend so I’m looking forward to that too.  Yay, summer rules.

Mellow Kiki

I’m excited for the weekend.  I feel like I have fun activities in store.  Fun by my definition anyways.

It’s Jessica’s bday on sunday but we’re celebrating tonight.  We’re gonna be lowkey and just have a nice meal and kick it grownz up style.

Tomorrow I’m gonna go see Madeleine’s new digs as she has moved to my neck of the woods, not down the street but definitely closer than Pilsen.

Then sunday me and Caroline are going to Bed Bath and Beyond to give our bathroom a makeover.

Yes, like I said before, these things are exciting to me and me alone.  LOL.  Caroline moving in has given me the push I needed to inject new life into my flat.  I’ve been meaning to do it for ages but really just never did it.  Sometimes I need some drastic change to happen to motivate me to get a move on.

Yesterday Jessica made fish tacos with mango salsa.  We’re so fancy I can’t even stand it. 😉  Going out doesn’t interest me at all these days.  I would much rather stay at home with some good company, testing out recipes and eating yummy food.

Early A.M. Kiki

It’s  really early.  I’ve been an early riser for as long as I can remember but still it never stops being strange that I’m awake kicking it when everyone else is completely passed out.  My gym is open 24 hours so I think I’m gonna head over there once I finish this post.

I don’t really have anything exciting to talk about this week.  It’s a pretty slow week.  I’m definitely feeling the unemployment factor right now because I’ve been working with my friend for the past couple of weeks so my idle time has been pretty much non-existent.  This week he’s out of town though and I’ve had to keep myself busy.  There are activities to do but they are activities of my own creation, so that makes the “I really have nothing to do factor” quite high.

Kiki = She-Ra

Had a pretty good weekend.  Summer’s are fun.  I love the sporadic spree of activities that come about.

I participated in the scriptwriting for that film contest and had a blast.

Went to Milwaukee on saturday to visit Dan and Monica and the kiddies and that was lovely just cuz I like my friends a lot.

Sunday, me and Caroline ventured to Ikea and got a bookcase that was a lot bigger and heavier than we thought it would be once we had put it together but we managed.  I believe in my She-Ra powers dammit!   I know this is a common thing discussed with Ikea products, but is it really that hard to write one sentence that explains how to put your shit together?  Sometimes one sentence can save the day people.

Spent  the rest of the day kicking it with Jessica and Joia and went to Wicker Park Fest.  Is the barrage of summer street festivals over yet?
