Man that was awesome, I knew it was gonna be cool - but I had no idea it would be all of my best friends getting wasted and tearing shit up together. Somehow paper mag sat my table next to the pegleg fam (harry & scott), Angels & Kings table (crush management, travie, etc), trouble and bass’ table, and the retro kidz who were 2 feet from the stage. I dragged AC Slater, Jen, Ricky from moodwing, Sabrina and Sandra to the awards also, so by the end of the night Luca (Curses/DTL), Patrick (The Captain), Ben (Passions), Vivian (Star Eyes) Travie and us were throwing ice on stage dancing to the hip hop bombs Mark Ronson was playing and being collectively blown away by how amazing Solange Knowles’ voice was. She can sing her ass off. Srsly.
Anyways I won the award for Best DJ and it made the night even more amazing, it was incredible to even be included in the same breath as James Murphy, A-Trak, Juske and everyone else while sharing the bill with friends I’ve known for years like Franki Chan, Harley and Cassie.
Thanks go out to Paper Magazine for throwing an amazing event and showcasing all the people who make going out in NY and all over the USA so much fun.
