What a week. So so so much fun. My time in Sardinia has come to an end. I had a fab week with great people and great music.

The past 4 years since my dad died haven’t been the greatest. Things finally started to turn around when I got an awesome new job in April. It’s been lovely to go on holiday and just eat great food, listen to the music I enjoy, and spend time with top notch people.

Sun and Bass has been amazing. I met Stefano in Chicago back in 2008 when he was there for a work training. I love that I was finally able to make it to his event, albeit it 16 years later. 😂

Biggest thanks goes to my gal pal Alley Cat. She let me tag along as her plus one and was a stellar raving buddy/roommate for the entire week. Special shouts to Workforce, Skeptical, and Klute. Our little party crew for those first 3 days was elite. Also getting some lady hangz in with Chickaboo was A1 too. I got to party with my LA dnb crew and meet up with some people that I’ve known for ages, but never met in person. Everything was wonderful. 🥰

I don’t want to make this post too long. So many great sets were heard and just good vibes all around. I had a fantastic time and appreciate that I got to join the Sun and Bass massive this year.

It’s a Wrap Kiki

And just like that, summer is coming to an end. I feel like it whizzed by! I had fun though. Went to San Diego, just got back from celebrating a friend’s bday in New Orleans. Going to Sun and Bass next month. Can’t complain. 🥰

Been listening to the new Echo Brown EP on TNQ, Galvan Place. So happy Crisp Dollar Thrill is finally out!

Really enjoyed this month’s GLXY episode on Rinse. I know I posted them last time too, but I’m such a huge fan, can’t help it. 😁 Word on the street is they are coming to US. I would be so geeked if they came to LA.

Better Late Than Never Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

Super duper late, but anyway, yes, I went to the TNQ night at Amsterdam Dance Event last month.
I had so much fun! It was great to see Greg, and Flight was there as well. I hadn’t seen her in ages. It was nice to catch up.
Me and my old lady raver bones lasted the whole night! Great sets all around.

I was in London to wrap up the last of my dad’s estate situation. It was nice to get a mini break from the sadness and go rave and hang out with friends and listen to great tunes. 🥰

Also got to check out Kool FM while I was in London. Me and Kathy went to keep Alicia company during her show. As a long time jungle raver, getting to go hang at Kool FM was pretty dope. Alicia had a great set as always and I kept say to the ladies how fun it was just to sit in a room, hang out with friends and listening to dnb really loudly. I mean I do that on my own all the time, but it was nice to do it with my friends. 😊

I love having the Kool FM/Rinse FM app. I listen to great mixes constantly. Not sharing a mix today, but I am currently obsessed with these 2 tunes and have had them on repeat for like 4 days. I had definitely heard both of them before on some other mixes, but didn’t know who they were by. I hyper-fixate like nobody’s business. I’ll write down which mix I heard a tune on and the minute count so I can keep going back to trainspot it until I know who it’s by. 😂

Love me some Echo Brown.

This is track is soooo good.

Headed to New Jersey this weekend. Going to spend Thanksgiving with my brother and my whole family is going to be there. That hasn’t happened in a while. I’m super excited about it. Happy Turkey Day to those of you that celebrate. 🦃🦃🦃

Homework Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

Weekends are for homework. There’s so so so so much reading. It’s not like I forgot what graduate school was like from my first master’s. I remember it all too well. LOL. Not sure why I thought round 2 was going to be any different! 😩😩😩

I’ve been enjoying the Drum & Bass Arena podcast lately. I don’t usually listen to it. It’s a great addition to the rotation.

2022 & Kiki

KikiLeave a comment

2021 gone. The year seemed extremely long and not long at all.

I spent my dad’s 1 year memorial with my mum. I don’t want to get too eerie and weird, but I do feel like he came to hang out with me that day. I just felt his presence quite strongly. That’s all I’ll say about that. 😐

I get the feeling he is doing well and definitely resting in peace. He’s buried with my grandparents and all his siblings and I feel immense comfort knowing that.

Back in LA now. I got a new position at work and am busy all the time. I’m not complaining, it’s just vastly different from how I spent the majority of my 2021. 😂
