Many people recall that amazing night where the mysterious house music robot Thomas Bangalter spun at Cinespace on April 21, 2009. On that same night, Ed Banger’s manager Busy P dropped the new SebastiAn track, set to release on his upcoming album. I had asked Busy P about the track at Coachella Festival, and he said that the track is still untitled. Stay tuned for updates. For now, here’s the youtube clip of the track.

From April 16-22, the Ed Rec Crüe will have their shirts and all their nic-naks on sale at the Barracuda on Melrose Ave. in Hollywood for a limited time only! The in-store event will be held on April 20th, with the entire Ed Banger entourage. Buy your shirts to sport and support the Ed Bangers at Coachella.

Buy a shirt and get on the guestlist for the Cinespace show featuring the all-stars SebastiAn, DJ Mehdi, & Busy P!

Also, those of you at Coachella this weekend can catch Busy P live in the Sahara on Sunday at 3PM…

As if there isn’t enough stuff going on in LA this Halloween weekend, something new has been announced.

The Busy P Halloween night AirForce launch event we told you about earlier now has been turned into a movie screening event. A Cross The Universe, the new Justice documentary will be screened at the Montalban this Friday night. You can RSVP here.

This film contains mature subject matter that may not be appropriate for all ages. You’ve been warned. 

Friday October 31st, 2008
6PM – Opening reception with cocktails courtesy of Belvedere Vodka
7PM – Film Premiere introduced by Busy P and Justice
8PM – Busy P x Nike Air Force 1 Launch

So Halloween is almost a week away. Still don’t have plans? We can help. 

The good thing is that this Halloween there are plenty of choices of events to go to. We’re actually planning on going to not one, not two, but three places in the same night. 

First off, the most recently announced event is an Ed Banger Halloween Party.
 

Sponsored by Nike, the Ed Bangers will be hosting a Halloween Kick-Off party at the Montalban Theater in Hollywood. This is the same theater that Soulwax will be screening their Part of the Weekend Never Dies on the 28th. The new Busy P AirForces will be unveiled at the event, and you will have an opportunity to meet the members of the Ed Rec Crue, while still outfitted in your Daft Punk knock-off Halloween costume. There’s no RSVP, so just show up. The event starts at 5PM at the Montalban.

What to do next? Well, of course there’s Hard Haunted Mansion, but if you don’t have tickets to it, or if you intend on showing up late, you could always check out an event sponsored by LA Metromix.

The people who brought you DanceRight at La Cita bring you Drop-Dead Gorgeous Halloween at the Natural History Museum directly South of USC. Here you can catch DJ Sets from Treasure Fingers, Classixx, and our pick Holy Ghost. The best part of this event is that it is absolutely free for admission. Don’t want to fork out $60 for a Hard Ticket? This is your best bet. There is a catch, though, to admission: you simply need to RSVP. Easy, right? Open up your favorite email program or webmail site and send your confirmation over to metromix@danceright.com.

If you’re going to this event and staying there, enjoy yourself. But if not, you always have the option of walking over to Hard Fest going on within walking distance. A safe bet would be to pay couple bucks and parking over at the University of Southern California Parking Structure X on Figueroa. This parking structure is located right in between, and is walking distance, both the Metromix and Hard events. That being said, you can head north on Figueroa and find yourself at one of the most epic electronic events that Los Angeles has ever hosted.

Meet Hard Haunted Mansion.

 
With a line-up featuring the biggest names in electronic music, I have no doubt that this event will be the highlight of the night. You will have an opportunity to catch the likes of Justice, Soulwax, SMD, Boys Noize, Crystal Castles, Crookers, and a few others…… all in the same night! If you haven’t bought your tickets for this yet, you should because they may sell out and/or reach capacity early. So get your costume, get your ass to the Shrine on Halloween night, and prepare for one of the biggest nights of electronic music ever to take place in the western hemisphere.

I came across this axe body spray commercial the other day. I didn’t think much of it until i realized that it plays Busy P’s Rainbow Man in the background. It’s yet another commercial where plenty of hot chicks bombard a guy because of the axe fragrance coming off him. Interestingly enough, they add a twist of chocolate to the occasion. The Chocolate Man commercial video is below for your viewing pleasure…
