[Event Preview] LAMother NYE ft. Chris Malinchak – 12/31

Finding the right thing to do on New Year’s Eve is always a difficult task. Sometimes you might ask yourself it’s really worth it, deciding to stay in for a quiet night with a few choice movies and a bottle of bubbly. However, there’s always that slight fear that you’re missing out on an epic evening. So, what’s your other choice? Head out to some sort of year-end celebration, in hopes of dancing it up past the countdown and well into 2016.

This year, we’re going with the latter. One of the events we have highlighted is NYE at LAMother, which features a collection of artists which promise a deep, danceable selection of tunes. If you haven’t heard of LAMother yet, it’s probably because they don’t typically host events like this. Promoters L’Affaire Musicale and Oujia Entertainment promise to turn this space into a indoor and outdoor wonderland, complete with champagne toasts, confetti cannons, food trucks, live visuals, premium open bar, and, of course, some top notch talent.

The night kicks off with a collection of accomplished LA-based artists, including Eli Glad b2b Brian Tarney and Adam Auburn. From there, you’ll see two artists that we’ve previously featured on the site, first with with Eric Sharp then Bobby Nourmand. The headliner is, as you probably guessed, Chris Malinchak, the NYC-based Producer/DJ who is best known for his smash hit, “So Good to Me.”

After you get done jamming out to the playlist below, make sure to pick up some tickets, before it’s too late.

’Crystal Waters x Bertrand Dupart – Gyspy Lolita (Adam Auburn’s Summer Anthem Edit)’
’Eric Sharp & Tenova – Slow Me Down’
’Melanie Martinez – Carousel (Eric Sharp Club Mix)’
’Bobby Nourmand – B E C A U S E’
’Bobby Nourmand – The Sound’
’Bobby Nourmand – THE DOORS X PEACE FROG’
’Chris Malinchak – When The World Stops Turning’
’Chris Malinchak – Happiness (feat. MNEK)’

[Denver Giveaway] TMN Presents: Brothertiger w/ Sunboy @ Lost Lake – 11/20

Brothertiger
Beyond The Infinite + Denver Ticket Giveaway!

It’s no secret around the TMN squad that Brooklyn multi-instrumentalist, vocalist, songwriter and producer John Jagos and his Brothertiger project have captured a large piece of our hearts over the years. For the past few months, Brothertiger has been dropping a smattering of excellent singles in the lead-up to his third full-length LP, Out of Touch, and to accompany that impending album, the Brothertiger team is smack in the middle of a North American tour. Needless to say, our needle is red-lining with anticipation as this Friday we’ve teamed up with our friends at Lost Lake Lounge and Radio 1190 to present this Friday’s tour stop in beautiful Denver, CO. If you haven’t been following our coverage of Brothertiger in the past few months, do yourself a favor and become acquainted with “Beyond the Infinite” (from the player above), “Wake” and his latest remix of ONANON’s “Drifting” to get up to speed. For fans of any corner of alt, pop and everything between, Brothertiger should without a doubt be one of your go-to acts for consistent production prowess. Brothertiger’s carefully thought-out, art-house R&B disguised in reverb-heavy pop structuring has long since become one of our favorite musical aesthetics in recent memory, and we’re absolutely ecstatic to have him headlining one of our favorite intimate venues in the Mile High City. Rounding out the bill is Denver’s Sunboy, representing one of our favorite independent creative collectives, Moon Magnet Studios. Sunboy’s unparalleled sound blends heavy electronics, delicate analog instrumentation, and intoxicating vocals that sound somewhere between Kevin Barnes and Soft Bulletin era Wayne Coyne; and after getting to catch the four-piece’s recent supporting slot for Gardens & Villa, they’ve quickly become filed under our ‘artists to watch’ tab for 2016. Make sure to get there early for this one Ninjas!

If you haven’t caught on yet, we love giving our readers a chance to come groove with us at every ‘TMN Presents’ showcase, so we’re giving away not one, but TWO pairs of tickets for this Friday’s show. Entering our contest is as always, beyond easy. Just “like” The Music Ninja on FB, click on this post header if you’re still on the TMN front page, then comment below with your favorite Brothertiger song, and boom, that’s it! And of course we want as many people as possible to come dance with us, so for our friends looking to secure their spot, tickets are only $10.00 and can be purchased at the link here as well.

There are a few rules, of course:
– The event is 16+ Be sure to tell all of your friends to increase chance of winning!

[Event Preview] TDE Presents: 1st Annual Kunta’s Groove Sessions – 11/5 @ Riviera Theatre, Chicago

Kendrick Lamar sent the internet into a frenzy last month with the initial announcement of his Kunta’s Groove Sessions tour via Instagram, with a caption that simply stated “8 cities. 8 nights, 8 intimate shows.” Since then, fans throughout the country have scrambled to get their hands on tickets which have sold out in mere minutes after going online. Prices on the secondary market have skyrocketed, especially in New York, where the cheapest available ticket at one point was $563 before they switched venues from Webster Hall to Terminal 5 according to Rukkus. Thankfully, the same has taken place here in Chicago, as the show has been moved from Concord Music Hall to the Riviera Theatre, providing a second chance to those of us that missed out the first time around.

In case you’ve been living under a rock, the excitement for the tour stems from the release of Kendrick’s landmark sophomore album, To Pimp A Butterfly, which received plenty of critical and commercial acclaim. Since its release, fans have been clamoring for a chance to see Kendrick perform live along with his band The Wesley Theory. Opening up the tour is labelmate Jay Rock, who is fresh off the release off his own album, 90059, which features standout singles like “Money Trees Deuce” and “Vice City”.

Head over to the link below to grab yourself some passes before they sell out again for good, and if you’re not in Chicago make sure to check out the remaining dates on the tour.
