Inspired by this different but super fresh concept Skeme was telling me about from his last trip to Japan…
It’s called a “listening bar”.
Side note: if you don’t know Skeme Richards, aka the Nostalgia King, aka the Heavy Funk 45 slinger… then just know he is the world’s funkiest DJ (and part of Rock Steady).
While Skeme was doing a gig in Tokyo, he got invited to this exclusive bar.
It was in a secret alley in the basement of a plain-jane apartment building, but the inside was like James Bond-007 sleek with burgundy velvet everywhere and $12000 speakers. They served him a flight of whisky, alongside a curated playlist of records that paired with each drink. Plus insightful commentary on why that pairing.
Obviously this would have been so much doper 1 on 1, and if you could physically come into my studio.
But the next best thing? We get online, do a live call together, and I set it up all nice for you to check in from anywhere worldwide.
And if you know me, then you know that I’m always elevating everything I do.
And this is going to be fresh.
I won’t keep this long, so here’s a brief summary of what you’re getting into:
The price? $75.
If that seems high… that’s because it isn’t.
This is a crash course on the musical research that I’ve conducted for 3 decades, distilled into 1 playlist of essential songs, and 1 hour of me getting straight to the point.
There is literally nothing like this out there yet, which is why I’m doing it now.
And of course, the more you pay for something… the more you value it.
I don’t want anyone coming in and not paying attention because they just got in for free.
It’s going down at 9am Philly time, August 15.
So if that’s good with you…
