ALEXANDER SPIT (11pm-12am)
Spit grew up in the Bay Area to a FIlipino mother and San Francisco-raised father. Spit’s first foray into rap music was with a group called The Instant Messengers. At 21, Spit went solo and released his first album Open 24 Hours when he turned 23. The album, as well as his subsequent project Until Next Summer (2010), were released through local streetwear company The Hundreds. After the success of his instrumental tape, Mansions, which landed on Complex Magazine’s “50 Best Albums of 2012 (So Far)”, Spit began work on his commercial debut. The album was called A Breathtaking Trip To That Otherside and was inspired by his move to Los Angeles and hallucinogenic drugs. It was released on Decon Records in January 2013 and featured E-40, The Alchemist and Action Bronson.
TWIN STEPS (10pm – 11pm)
“Twin Steps is The Beach Boys and Ariel Pink‘s 16-year-old misunderstood lovechild. Yeah, that teenage baddie who steals his uncle’s Harley and adventures to California to “find himself” after his harlot girlfriend, Ramona, leaves him for his archnemesis, Johnny Q. Or in a more unspecific sense, Twin Steps is a garage-rock band blending 60s soul with 80s angst, creating a new strain of “I’m so sad. Dance with me, mysterious stranger who also looks sad.” -VICE
