This is more of a social event than a business meeting, but please bring your ideas for the kinds of projects and other activities you would like to see the chapter take on in 2012. I look forward to seeing you there!

Night Sounds

Apr 27, ’12 6:00 AM

As much as we wish, the El Tiburon was not designed by MAISON ORION.

An ecletic mix by Scott M B Gustafson under the DJ moniker of Emmfour. Recorded live from vinyl nearly a decade ago live on AZSessions.com, the premier electronic music collective in the southwestern United States, this sonic journey crosses musical genres to create an moody atmosphere that collects the complex emotional experiences of urban life. For late night listening only. The perfect companion to a 3 am drive down Olympic from Santa Monica to Montebello.

Featuring MF Doom, múm, Them, cLOUDDEAD, Fugazi, Set Fire To Flames, RJD2, Godspeed You! Black Emperor, Octavius, and Dälek.

Listen here:
