So many comic conventions so little time! I just got back from Motor city comic Con this weekend talking to film stars and comic artists while realizing I still have material from C2E2. This episode is my video of DJ JFX316 a DJ from Ohio that works at a comic store. AT C2DE2 he created the perfect entrance for con goers as he DJ'd his mix of hip hop, electronic music, old school, and whatever else he could get his hands on. He was also a great guy to talk with as we did the video in a hallway by C2E2 after he just finished playing for six hours. You can find JFX316 on his soundcloud page and twitter .

This week's video is with electronic musician Paper Diamond , who I interviewed on #308 . This video episode includes some audio with Paper Diamond that I didn't fit in that episode backed by video of PD performing from his show at the iLounge on Jan 28. I should warn you that the video has lots of flashing and blinking lights, which made for a fantastic show, but may put your eyes and mind in a tizzy. I also put in some of the photos I took at the show. Those dubsteppers are so photogenic!

This week's episode is a profile of local dubstep DJ and friend of mine, K@Dog , which is pronounced "CAT DOG". I saw K@Dog warm up a few weeks ago for Paper Diamond and while his set was something completely different for the night his set worked perfectly. His downtempo, reggae inspired mix got the night started out right as the crowd mingled and felt the night start to pick up at a more relaxed pace. K@Dog has played extensively through Michigan and often plays sets along electronic acts that are not necessarily dupstep. I took a few photos that are spread out throughout the 3 minute video. The Detroit dubstep scene continues to be an exciting and diverse experience that never disappoints.

A few months ago I discovered the band Hussle Club as a warm up act for a Peter Murphy show. Hussle Club is fronted by Prince Terrence who has previously played drums for a number of bands including Santogold. Prince Terrence is from Detroit so the interview was kind of like a going home celebration for him. While Hussle Club are still finding their sound, from there ep, they are off to a strong start. Their songs range from dark rock tracks to more upbeat dance.

The Aquanettes are a Detroit area band comprised of three women that have a powerful surf-rock and punk sound with an ambition to be heard. I came across them through Tania, their bass player, who also plays keyboards in Blockhead, a Devo cover band. Tania mentioned she played bass in this all girl puck band, the Aquanettes, that I should check out. A couple of months later, I'm at a show at Callahans, a bar in Auburn Hills, that usually has attracts an older blues rock crowd. On this night, along with a burlesque show that I can't even hint at how cool it was. Meanwhile, I can give you the lowdown on the Aquanettes who really put a real kick into the night's show. The video is only a small glimpse of the conversation I had with the ladies, we talked on other topics and even had a fan asking questions of the band. Maybe a part 2 video is called for...
The Aquanettes are hard at work over the winter putting some new material together. You can find out more about the Aquanettes at their facebook page and reverbnation page .

I'm starting off 2012 with a video interview I should have probably gotten out in 2011, I guess time flies when you're having fun. This video is with Rubik , an indie pop band from Finland that combine elements of pop with catchy melodies and the epicness of progressive rock. They have been around with since late 1990's but they sound continually fresh with compelling instrumentation. I caught them on tour with Lights in October. What was funny about interviewing them was I worried that I wouldn't be able to understand them bring from Finland and all. Turns out their english is quite good and they were very affable during the conversation. Their latest album "Solar" was a masterpiece and I'm sure was in top lists of favorite albums of 2011 for critics and indie pop fans.

For this week’s video episode I’m steering away from indie pop music and focusing on indie pop culture. A few episodes ago, I had an interview with local filmmaker J.G. Barnes on his short film “Patrick.” This episode is a follow up, with J.G. talking about his upcoming short movie “Thieves” which is shaping up to be quite a spectacle. Visually arresting with a sci-fi storyline, “Thieves” will be out early January 2012. To support the movie there are trailers and other videos available at J.G.’s Zenisphere Films YouTube page.

This week’s video goes back to October when I saw Sims and Cecil Otter at the Pike Room in Pontiac. This video is with Sims, the Cecil Otter video is still to come. The first person you’ll see in the video is my brother, Kevin, who is a huge fan of both. I decided to let him do the interview and he was so into it he wrote detailed questions in a notebook. Sims latest release is the excellent “Bad Time Zoo,” a very entertaining hip hop record with Sims calculatedly rapping over incredible beats provided by Lazerbeak. As part of the Doomtree collective, Sims can also be heard on “No Kings,” the new album from Doomtree released a couple weeks ago. My apologies go out to Sims and Kevin for taking so long to get this video out.

Concert Review: Peter Murphy, She Wants Revenge and Hussle Club Crofoot 11/25/2011
[LESS INFO] 13 VIEWS | ADDED 17:07:49 11/27/11
It's my 300th episode of Most People Are Djs! I'm celebrating my 300th epiode with a video review of Peter Murphy, She Wants Revenge and Hussle Club in a concert I attended Black Friday, Here's my review of the show I did or motorcityblog.
This year I’ve been reliving my youth and seeing the bands I grew up listening to like OMD, Men Without Hats and the star of this show, Peter Murphy. While the show was billed with the emphasis on She Wants Revenge as they probably do sell more records than Peter Murphy, the focus at the show was on Peter Murphy. Give credit to SWR as they told the crowd to save themselves for Peter, during their set full of new, old and even some B-sides. If you came to the show a little late you probably missed Hussle Club, who played an early 30 minute set of a hard post punk that also featured some updated dance rhythms. As mentioned above, SWR played some of their early hits and their closing with “Out of Control” and “Tear You Apart” received loud appreciation from the crowd.
At age 54, Peter Murphy, shows your years as a musician and singer with one of the richest, as well as deepest vocals, can still put on a show that includes all the raw energy of his early years and all the beauty of his more delicate later releases. When he’s rowdy onstage, dancing and preening, he still reminds me of an Iggy Pop impersonator. But, it’s his quieter, reflective songs that elevate his show above comparisons. He showed an angry streak during the show as he railed his sound man for checking his cell phone. In fact, I would say Peter is perfectionist at his art and has those same expectations for those around him, even choosing to restart “A Strange Kind of Love” when he was more than more than midway through it. His set also featured four Bauhaus songs, my favorite being “In the Flat Fields” which had Peter berating his drummer to “play faster, play faster!” He ended the show slowing way down with a somber encore of a three-song suite that included "Marlene Dietrich's Favourite Poem."

MPAD#298 "Phantasmagoria"
[LESS INFO] 9 VIEWS | ADDED 17:39:25 11/13/11
This video interview goes back to September on a beautiful and crisp night at Ferndale's DIY Festival. A 3 day Festival of DIY music and arts. The emphasis is on the DIY as you won't find many commercial crafts. What you will find is booths with original, handcrafted arts, and some of the best local bands. On the opening night I went out and saw a couple bands I've been meaning to see since the beginning of the year. Phantasmagoria and Step Dad. The members of Phantasmagoria were nice enough to spend a few minutes with me. While I had heard and read great things about Phantasmagoria's unique combination of pop, electronic beats and tribal rhythms. Lianna's strong vocals mix in with Chris' music that has a dark and rich fullness to it. Comparisons are hard to come by, trip hop may come to mind, but, the organic blend of sounds that wash over the striking vocals, cancel that out and something more psychedelic is the result.
If you're in the Detroit area you can catch Phantasmagoria playing various venues, on Dec. 9 they'll be at the Magic Stick with Passalaqcua and Chrome Sparks. You can also pick up their music at Five Three Dial Tone and their bandcamp site.
