The Dog & Pony Show Is Verboten: Matthew Dear & Matt Tolfrey

  • Happy 2011! A new year means a new beginning! We want to take a minute to wish everyone a fun and safe year. If 2010 wasn't quite up to par, this is your chance to reinvent. If it went well, we hope it only gets better! This will be our first event in the new year, and we're honored to have our friends at flawless co-produce this amazing show! We also want to wish a VERY BIG happy bday to a close friend and an amazing person - Mr. Bobby Koehler, without who this event wouldn't have happened! THANK YOU BOBBY! =) SUNDAY JANUARY 16th (MLK Sunday - no work Monday!): Dog & Pony in association with Verboten present Episode #007: "TOLL FREE" (w/ $20 advance ticktets!) starring... -MATTHEW DEAR - DJ set [spectral | ghostly] Audion, False, Jabberjaw - all names that represent the many diverse styles and faces that make up the man behind the aliases. From DJ sets, to live performances, to his very latest Big Hands Band structure, each Matt Dear project completely blows away your typical grids and generic music boundaries. We can try to classify his sound with any number of genre-locking terms - electronic pop, minimal house, acid techno, but not until you see the man perform live you realize the best words to describe Matt Dear is simply avant-garde or innovative! We've become accustom to expect the unpredicted, we encourage you to do the same! http://matthewdear.com/ -MATT TOLFREY [leftroom records] We're super-hyped to host Matt Toll free! Don't get excited, we still want you to pay, but don't worry it'll be well worth it! The head of the growing Leftroom imprint returns after a MASSIVE label show case this past October courtsey of The Blkmarket Membership guys. With a sound which combines deep chunky house, dark groovy techno, and always infused with a little extra funk, a Tolfrey set never seizes to translate into something amazing. (NO PRESSURE MATT.) Pressure or not, Matt's talent is the ability to make you move, while making it look easy. You can check out Matt's recent Autobrennt podcast here: http://autobrennt.com/podcast/018-matt-tolfery ...but we strongly recommend you come here the man live, because there really isnt anything like it! http://residentadvisor.net/dj/matttolfrey -SHADI MEGALLAA [leftroom records | halcyon] Shadi's (pronounced 'SHAH-DEE' not Shady') cutting-edge taste and knowledge in electronic music is unmatched. His exceptional talent can clearly be heard in his Productions and Podcasts which are simply mind-blowing! Shadi's music tells his story of struggle, survival, and victory. With a wide range of experiences, Shadi is a serious dude, who's smart enough to take things lightly. You can expect a DJ set which will take you on a journey through quality that transcends genres. Including (but not limited to) classic house, techno, acid, progressive, experimental, AND a bunch of other super-cool, crazy, bugged-out, off-the-wall stuff that you'll really effin love! http://facebook.com/megallaa -PAUL RAFFAELE [the dog & pony show] We're really lucky to STILL have the guy who is the main reason that we can STILL do good parties. Even if we didn't have amazing names like MATTHEW DEAR or MATT TOLFREY or VINCENZO or QUARION, or BUTCH, or SIMON BAKER, or KRIS WADSWORTH! EVERYONE has been asking for him! You're in luck, because WE got him! (and NO I didnt write this myself. I swear.) ...If the newest, coolest, best sounding shit had a pulse, THIS GUY would have his finger on it! Not to mention he's really good at mixing! http://dogandponynyc.com/ -ANDREW VOGT [verboten] We're really excited to partner with Flawless for this event! Since he never leaves the Verboten DJ booth, we decided it would be easiest to just put Andrew on! With all seriousness, Vogt's history in NYC goes back to the Brooklyn Tuning loft party days. His recent resume includes gigs with the likes of Dubfire, Konrad Black, Davide Squillace, Matthias Tanzmann, Ida Engberg, Magda, and Sascha Funke. We're honored to have him on our team. http://theflawlesssound.com/ • ABOUT THE PARTY • Dog and Pony are the mischievous main characters at our festive monthly music function.

Halloween? At this rate you guys might actually make some money ...by 2030!" -Flawless accountant to Dog & Pony bookkeeper "That's really considerate what you guys did there putting 'No Work Monday' on your flier.
