Mark Farina?

[mike48ride]

Book him...when did he play buzz last?

[Hitoi]

I don't recall him ever being booked at Buzz.

[housecat]

Me neither only place I've really seen him listed is at Five.

[zartan]

yeah - isn't he resident at m3? he's there fairly frequently.

[Matt Sanborn]

Dead horse-

Ive beat the shit out of it.

Scott-John-Manda-anyone...book....yes....good

[mike48ride]

That's too bad...he should come to buzz instead of club five.

[IndoRave]

yeah, mark farina would be spinning at clubs like five i guess...he's more into house and stuffs rite? i like tho..:D

[Yankee Doodle]

I just put him on my Xmas list yesterday (the cd, I mean.)

[badkitty3804]

He just had some 'party on a plane' type thing I believe :shrug:

thats the point.. they want some house music in the main room

[Yakko Red]

Mark Farina is better at a more intimate club setting like Five, especially since it caters to an older crowd. The kind of music Buzz likes to book is high energy and slammin... so the chance of Mark Farina ever playing at Buzz is highly unlikely.

[housecat]

:stupid:

I completely agree. I think Five is better suited for Mark Farina.

[gabriel]

i think "better suited" is a sleepy tired bad argument against having house or anything else at buzz.

cold cut for instance...live on stage...would ANNIALATE the dancefloor
as would any number of house djs... Little Louie Vega and Eric Morrillo did a night a few years ago and not only was it PACKED but the vibe was THIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICK...like i hadn't felt in years in that space. vibe seriously came out of the walls.

more house should be booked
the end
end the seperatism.

mark farina...his "mushroom jazz" puts me to sleep. He def shouldnt be booked at Buzz...i see him better suited at a coffee house...

[badkitty3804]

Mushroom Jazz isn't his only stuff.

[housecat]

I picked up Air Farina this weekend... haven't gotten a chance to listen to it yet but will tonight.

I love his Mushroom Jazz cd's too.

[housecat]

Just listened to Air Farina and LOVE the mix of Radio.

:thumbsup:

Not too big on the talking in the begining of some tracks but it still kicks ass :)

[DRG420]

yeah i have one of his sets and it is dope. Everyone who has seen him told me he is the dope

[merkurboy]

Anyone else see him in 1999 at BottleRocket at Tracks at the edge of the sand volleyball court? That was a dope set...i actually miss that place sometimes....but yeah, San Francisco Sessions...dope cd

[housecat]

I was there for that but missed his set did catch Craze though and WOW amazing... Skylab was at that party too inside the main area.

They were going nuts... :raveon:

[merkurboy]

yeah i remember that off to the side...i really mostly remember the cool green lasers that they had in that one room...I was very impressed. all the food they were selling was kind of odd...but it was the 4th...I miss tracks sometimes..

[Yankee Doodle]

I miss Traxx all the time, first club I ever went to. . .

[housecat]

I think it was my second. All right... is it Tracks or Traxx because I see it spelled 2 different ways a lot? I know that Traxx was renting their club out a few years back as I was looking into renting space for a party so I want to say that's not it. Anyone know which was the correct spelling?

[merkurboy]

yeah i can't remember how it's spelled either, the office buliding they put up instead really throws you for a loop..it looks NOTHING like it used to.

[housecat]

I took pics of when they toor it down.

Fokkers

[Transmattic]

Traxx was OLD school

[housecat]

How so? I know it's right around there. Saw an ad in the paper for renting space a while back and I called and talked to some guy with a THICK accent about prices and stuff.

Off topic like whoa but I'm curious.

[Spazz]

they tore down traxx and made office buildings how DC!
Mark Farina is awesome i saw him last July 4th in San Francisco at the Sno Drift and Spundae parties i went to 6 parties that night it was HELLA bombdiggity FRESH!

Matt and I LOVE LOVE LOVE Betcha Do, I think it's called. Sort of techy but oh so DOPE...

[happygrl]

And Farina doesn't just play mellow house btw. Last time he was at 5 he tore the fucking roof off.

:thumbsup:

[Johnna]

I saw Mark out in San Francisco at a nice club called DNA. The DNA lounge has this StarTrek looking DJ booth that is kind of suspended from the upper level reminiscent of 'private boxes' at the old JFK Stadium. When he was spinning I remember I was delighted to literally be able to see down into the booth - as if watching over his shoulder and see this guy do his ' Mushroom Jazz' thing. He is Deep House, so if you are not down with it don't go see him, but if you have never seen him, check out how he somehow weaves in NuSkool funky breaks into straight up Deep House. The man is the Shidzit. :nuke:

I am a jaded old fock and Mark is my Michael Jordan. No one has groove like he does- homie slams it down with the best.

If you havent heard him dj......bah.....if you havent then you should.

it is House music yes- but that doesnt mean it cant have just as if not more energy than anything being currently slotted in the main room at Cubik.

[uberclkgtr]

:werd: farina can get da ass a shakin' like no other.

:banana:

[gabriel]

i wonder if buzz patrons could really handle more than 3-5 peaks a night? b/c mark brings at least as many peaks as tracks he plays

[Matt Sanborn]

and just as many CDR's :wink:

[gabriel]

lol
