SUNDAY, 7/8 from 2-8PM -> After two great parties in our first month, tons of people have been hitting me up about the latest installment of Goodness and me and special guests Es Nine (producer for Prime Element & more) and DJ Discord of the Crunk Brothers are excited to break out the crates of wax to get Sundays off to a proper start with an all vinyl edition of the party.  Not only are we playing all wax, but DJ Discord’s gonna be playing a set of all Brazilian vinyl from his trips to South America on some truly unprecedented Denver ish that should be perfect for a Summer afternoon.  As usual, El Chingon will be slanging the best tacos in town (I heard rumors of a duck taco special), Agua Fresca Especials will be flowing and you already read about how you’re set on music at what Denver culture blog The 4th Door calls “the best patio party in Denver” on the Meadowlark’s beautiful patio (2701 Larimer St).

Now every SUNDAY afternoon -> Goodness w/DJ Low Key & friends on the Meadowlark’s patio…Some of the best DJs in Denver, tacos by El Chingon & more!

EVERY SUNDAY afternoon from 2-8PM 2-9PM -> After great two outings to kick things off, Denver culture blog The 4th Door called Goodness “the best patio party in Denver” and by popular demand, we’re moving the party to Sunday afternoons and going weekly for the rest of the Summer, starting on Sunday, 7/8. We’ll still be featuring the same incredible drinks, even more delicious tacos by El Chingon, top notch music from myself and guest sets from some of the best DJs in Denver plus adding even more special events. Come check out the party and see why people have been raving about Goodness and the Meadowlark’s ridiculous patio (2701 Larimer St). Rain or Shine /// 21+ /// 2-8pm /// No Cover.

P.S. Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better, the Meadowlark has added misters for those extra hot afternoons! Gotta love it!!!

EDIT on 7/15: We went ahead and added an hour to the party since we’ve been busy and weren’t kicking anybody out at 8, so now we go from 2-9PM.  We do have to wrap up at 9PM because of noise regulations in the neighborhood, but you can keep you night going at Fifty/50 w/me and bartender extraordinaire Jessica Simmons at Tryst, right down the street at 15th & Larimer (12 blocks down the street from the Meadowlark).

Shouts to the Meadowlark, home of the The Solution Showcase & Goodness…They were featured in 5280 Magazine’s “best bars in Denver” issue…

A few months back, 5280 Magazine published the list of the best bars in Denver and included The Meadowlark in their top spots for music.  That wasn’t enough though, they published a picture of DJ Dozen from The Solution Showcase #1 along with the article to make it that much sweeter.  I agree with them, the Meadowlark has been one of the best venues I’ve worked with!  Catch The Solution Showcase once a month and Goodness on the 1st & 3rd Saturdays every Sunday afternoon, all Summer long at this fine, award-winning establishment. See you there!

.:ScHoolboy Q & TiRon “Love Me Not” (produced by Chuck Inglish, cuts by DJ Low Key):.

TiRon sent me a demo of this months ago and it’d been my jam for most of the year when he hit me up to add some cuts last month.  After going through a few different records, I ended up grabbing a sample saying “but oh well” from one of my all-time favorite hip hop albums.  Anyways, enjoy, and if you like what you hear, catch me opening for ScHoolboy Q on Saturday, 5/12 at the Fox Theatre and feel free to download my mixtapes with TiRon here and here if you haven’t already.
