Monday, 11/26 at 8PM -> Bar Luxe Reunion w/DJ Low Key, DJ Amen, DJ Squirt, DJ Pat Allen & DJ Matt Cassidy at Cherry (the former Bar Luxe space)…

 

MONDAY, 11/26 at 8PM -> We’re reuniting the DJs and crew from the infamous Cherry Creek martini bar, Bar Luxe, for one night only.  Me, DJ Amen, DJ Squirt, DJ Pat Allen & DJ Matt Cassidy will be manning the turntables, rocking the best in Luxe-era jams at Cherry (the former Bar Luxe space at 231 Milwaukee St), while drinks flow and we all reconnect with the great vibes and music that Luxe was known for.  The party starts at 8pm, there’s no cover and if you ever made it to Bar Luxe, you already know it’s gonna be a good time.  See you there.

P.S. We’re trying to reach all the old Bar Luxe regulars so if you see this and know someone that might be interested, please let them know.  Thanks!

P.P.S. In case you missed it back in 2006, check out the Bar Luxe Late Night Soundtrack by me & DJ Amen here.

Tuesdays at 10PM in Breckenridge -> Groove w/DJ Low Key at Cecilia’s Martini Bar & Dance Club…

EVERY TUESDAY AT 10PM in Breckenridge -> If you’re up in Summit County, don’t miss Groove w/DJ Low Key, a new weekly at Cecilia’s, Breckenridge’s top (and recently remodeled) nightclub. I’ll be spinning soul, house, funk, breaks & other feel good music on the club’s revamped sound system, the bartenders will be serving up  great drinks off a special half price top shelf cocktail menu & more fun stuff will be going on throughout the season.  21+ / 10PM / No Cover / 520 S Main St.

Friday, 11/16 & Saturday, 11/17 -> DJ Low Key x Portland…Catch me spinning at PDX staples Saucebox & Jones…

FRIDAY, 11/16 & SATURDAY, 11/17 -> I’m super excited to be heading to Portland for a long overdue first visit (seriously, it’s been at the top of my cities left to visit list for years!  Boston, you’re next!).  I’m playing two great spots on my trip (shouts to DJ Zimmie!), here’s the details:

FRIDAY 11/16 -> Catch me spinning new soul, R&B, breaks & more at pioneering PDX restaurant/lounge/institution Saucebox (214 SW Broadway).  Check out the details on the venue below and catch me DJing, as we work to bring you that perfect combination of exceptional music and incredible food.

“Saucebox has maintained its reputation in the city as the place for the finest in pan-asian and pacific island cuisine with its insider vibe and unique presence. Unforgettable dishes and innovative cocktails have given saucebox national notoriety in The New York Times, Bon Appetit Magazine, Travel & Leisure and The Wall Street Journal – but it’s local attention and accolades like being honored as “Restaurant of the Year” In 1998 by the Oregonian that make saucebox a landmark of Portland restaurant and lounge scene.”

SATURDAY, 11/17 -> Things get hype at Jones (107 NW Couch St), where I’ll be spinning 80s & 90s party jams all night.  Not just the typical joints though, we’re going deep into the crates, since it’s an 80s/90s themed club, and from what I’ve heard/read, it’s quite the dance spot.  Based on their rep and the quality DJs they have playing on a regular basis, expect me to pull out all the stops to make a lasting impression.  Also, in what’s possibly the most brilliant move ever, Jones serves breakfast, including chicken & waffles, after last call until 5am (Denver clubs, y u no hav brekfast?).


Urb says that of Colorado DJs, “the top of the pile would be DJ Low Key” in their Resident Advisor feature…I’m honored…

I don’t know how I managed to miss this when it was initially posted, but I came across this Urb Magazine feature when I saw people clicking the link in my site traffic a while back.  With that said, I’ve been reading Urb for probably a decade or so, so it was an honor for them to feature me as the Denver inclusion on their list of America’s Best Local DJs.

Disclaimer: There are a ridiculous amount of dope DJs in Colorado and the last thing I’m trying to do is ego trip and claim I’m the best.  With that said, it’s awesome that Urb decided to call me “the top of the pile”.  Check out the piece below or at Urb.com:

Resident Advisors :: America’s Best Local DJs (Week 3)

DJ Low Key Press 1 400x269 Resident Advisors :: Americas Best Local DJs (Week 3)

DJ LOW KEY (Denver)-
In a land where there are more DJs than emcees, Denver houses some of the best, and at the top of the pile would be DJ Low Key. Low Key has been involved in hip-hop mixtapes with everyone from Che Grand, Tanya Morgan, TiRon and Median. He also dropped The Solution Tape #1 mixtape, done with his partner DJ Sound Supreme to honor the weekly spot him and Supreme spin at every Friday night in Denver. He has also been Tanya Morgan’s tour DJ in the past. This former Basmentalism DJ is on the rise not just in Denver, but nationwide.

Saturday, 10/13 from 2-9PM -> End of the Patio Season Goodness w/DJ Low Key & friends, El Chingon Tacos and more on the Meadowlark’s patio…Don’t miss the last patio party of 2012!!!

SATURDAY, 10/13 from 2-9PM -> I knew this day was coming, but it doesn’t make things any easier.  It’s almost mid-October, the forecast is for high-60s and we’ve got just enough time and good weather for one last Goodness on the Meadowlark’s incredible patio before we call it a wrap for the 2012 patio season (but don’t worry, we’ll be back in mid/late Spring).  With that said, please join myself, a few guest DJs (lineup coming soon) and the homies from El Chingon as we celebrate a first season that went better than any of us could have hoped for.

On that note, I want to thank each and everybody who came through Goodness this Summer/Fall, the vibe was basically perfect the whole time and that wouldn’t have been possible without the love, support and patronage of an amazing variety of people (maybe most diverse party in Denver? I dunno if that’s the case, but I heard people saying it every week).  Hopefully we’ll see all of y’all out for the season’s closer.  More details at @feel_goodness/21+/No Cover/2701 Larimer St.

P.S. The heaters are now back on the patio so when the sun goes down we should be good.  I’d bring a hoodie if you show up late, just to be safe.

P.P.S. I’m working on a few other cool new concepts for this Fall/Winter, so add me on facebook, follow me on twitter, catch me on tumblr, join the e-mail list at the top right corner of this page, etc so you can stay in the loop from here on out.
