The Sky Report Presents REACH OUT HAITI

This Saturday The Sky Report presents a special dance party benefit for the people of Haiti. DJ Paleboy spins a special mix from 10:00pm - close in hopes of raising money to donate to the rebuilding and emergency need of Port Au Prince. We have friends with family in the area and thought we had to do something to contribute to this cause. We are still deciding on an organization to contribute 100% of the proceeds to, so if you have a suggestion please make note of it in the comments section. The suggested donation is $5, but you are by no means expected to pay a cover. Just come and have fun! Hope to see you there.

More info and rsvp on facebook.

Underground Alert - RYAN POWER

Burlington, Vermont's Ryan Power recently captivated the Northeast Kingdom in Bushwick with his unique and bizarre one-man electro opera. With several Vermont celebrities on hand - most notably, Heloise of Heloise & the Savoir Faire - Power delivered an entrancing vocal performance, singing beautifully over meticulous and multi-dimensional electro tracks. Power recently made waves when he opened for buzz band Women in Manhattan.

The latest LP,Is It Happening? was released in 2007.

Underground Alert - SHARON VAN ETTEN

Sharon Van Etten is a gorgeous singer/songwriter based in Bushwick, who recently got a lot of blog love during the CMJ Music Marathon. Her independent release of "home recordings" is a beautiful collection of raw and personal compositions that reveal an emerging voice of astounding talent. The opening track "I Wish I Knew" is so heart-wrenching I find myself gutted with every listen. I am kicking myself for accidentally missing her performance at the Northeast Kingdom lounge last night, but she is playing again at Zebulon in Brooklyn on Sunday night.

"I Wish I Knew" also appeared on this summer's Welcome to Bushwick compilation.

HALLOWEEN NIGHT

Hey Brooklyn, got plans for Halloween? I'll be playing a bunch of spooky tracks and hot electro/disko jams after Pass Kontrol rock the house. It all goes down at 11pm at Northeast Kingdom this Friday night. Take the L train to Jefferson, then walk a few steps to 18 Wykcoff (between Starr and Troutman). Prizes for best costume, so come decked out and dance the night away!

MOBY - 'I Love to Move in Here (Holy Ghost remix)'

Brooklyn's Holy Ghost have remixed Moby's latest single "I Love to Move in Here" and it makes for quite the hot summer jam. They also have a great remix of Cut Copy's "Hearts on Fire" which you can check out here.

In other Moby news, he was spotted in Bushwick last week at Northeast Kingdom. As some of you know, this is where I bartend and occasionally DJ. Bummer I missed him!
