Maybe you’ve noticed but I’ve been putting up some shorter posts recently. My goal is to do one “feature” a week with shorter posts throughout the week. My plan was to do a write up this week featuring the Major Rager show at Cervantes. Major Rager is an alias for Diplo the world renowned DJ. Unfortunately he bailed on the show so that went up in smoke. I was super bummed because not only would Diplo have killed it but Robotic Pirate Monkey was going to open.
I mentioned in an earlier post that I saw them at Beauty Bar 3/26/11 and I had a great time. The crew and I rolled deep to the bar and I was in shock by the talent, the bar definitely lives up to its name. Opening for RPM was Mo:Rockin and he got the dance bumping with some well known bangers like Rusko's "Woo Boost" and Bassnectar's "Bass Head." By the time Robotic Pirate Monkey took the stage everyone was feeling loose and they unleashed on the crowd. Every body in the house was moving to the beats which they brought until the bar closed. RPM has some unusual remixes that may seem strange on paper but is bass porn for your ears. Some personal favorites of mine are "Carousel" (Blink-182), "I Cam as a Rat" (Modest Mouse), "Smile" (Lilly Allen), and "Mr. Brown" (Bob Marley). I also really like their originals "Ligers" and "All In You." You can see them April 21st at the Aggie in Fort Collins but in the mean time you can bump all their music free at www.roboticpiratemonkey.com.
