All Of The Above

Wax digga, mixtape killa, and party rocka DJ Jerry Nice made the move from his hometown of Seattle, down to San Francisco after going on a digging trip over 6 years ago. Since then he’s made quite a name for himself, steady spinning throughout the city, playing sets that include a healthy rotation of hip-hop, disco, funk, boogie, house, & soul. You can catch him at his residencies “Straighten It Out” & “The Groove Merchant Party” at Madrone Art Bar.

Back in 2010, KM/FM dropped a DISCO MIX inspired by Larry Levan's Paradise Garage. This mix celebrates & embodies what Disco music itself is all about – from raunch and sleaze, to style and soul – from the basement to the nightclub. Enjoy the forgotten gems, classics, and exclusive edits for yourself or with a dancing partner. DISCO MIX by KM/FM 2010

All Of The Above • Friday, August 01, 2014 • Second Saturdays at Mercer SF

It's strange to write about a guy you've known for so long that insulting each other mercilessly is totally excusable, but, hey that's Kero One AKA DJ Kero One AKA All Of The Above's 4th of July guest. 

Kero has been wearing many hats: label guy, rhyme spitter and, as of late, an architect of a damn good party. Right outside of his Downtown L.A. doorstep, where the gluten and trade free organic vegan iced coffee flows and Skrillex really is your neighbor, he's been flexing his DJ muscles. One week it's at the thumping Uptempo's How We Keeps It party and the other is the hi-hat and 808 bounce fest that is Trap Love. Staying true to the All Of The Above sound we'll hear high swinging grooves and low end tones through Mercer's grander than grand Turbo Sound system. 

@DJBluz does All Of The Above

Since the party is pretty open in terms of format the most exciting thing to me about AOTA is the opportunity it gives the DJ to spread our wings and take the audience on a journey.  I think a good performance of any kind, DJ or otherwise is all about controlling the energy.  Open format gives us a wider arsenal to do that. 

Since it's not necessarily about any single genre my hope is that there's more freedom to express ourselves through a range of styles and tempos.

DJ Bluz • All Of The Above MIX

Soul, Hip-hop, and House. Jewelry, clothes, and food. Thinking about it, there is a clear relationship between both groups. The former and the latter are both created by the same type of people: makers who get that kick of inspiration out of thin air and allow that creative high to run crazy in their minds. But, it's not just that connection in particular, it's that both groups can be also found at The "All Of The Above" party next Friday at Mercer.

While KM/FM fuse countless genres together to form the AOTA sound, Black Market S.F. links the Bay Area's cuisine and craft world for a special pop-up shop. People like to eat and people like to dance, so there is no reason you can't have both.

Black Market S.F.pop-up from 9-12 at the next All Of The Above party featuring KM/FM plus special guest DJ Bluz. 21+ • 9-2AM • No wallflowerin' All Of The Above (Facebook RSVP)
