A letter to our fans
Over 2.5 years (June 01 - January 04) Spectrum provided one of the Boston
area’s only venues for eclectic dance music. We booked at least
one guest performer, just about every week, breaking many new, local talents
into the scene. We also played host to a large number of live/electronic
performers, and DJs from all around the world, including artists like:
Twiglight
Circus Dub Sound System (Netherlands), Hrvatski,
DJ
/rupture (Spain), Zod
Records crew (Milwaukee), Broklyn
Beats crew (New York City), and over 50 other DJs and performers.
The Phoenix Landing, except free drinks, never paid us anything. In return
this kept the event free for the public.
We showed up and played every Tuesday because we love the music, and
we love the fans of the night who love the music too. We always had a
great crowd of friendly people and we will miss that. We would like to
thank the Phoenix Landing for providing us with a space in which to do
our thing, and for putting up with us when we strayed from the standard
club DJ format in order to provide folks with high quality, and incredibly
diverse styles of music.
Most of all we want to thank all of our fans. We had an ever-shifting
core group of regulars who would be with us every week. To all of you
who came and danced your faces off; to all of you who came and just listened
the music; to all of you who came to hang with friends and get your drink
on; to all the new people we met, we love you.
Spectrum was our home away from home every Tuesday night for over 2.5
years. The new hole in our schedule will allow us to put in more work
on some of our other projects. Verbnine will continue to make his visual
artwork. DJ
Flack has got a bunch of tracks ready to come out on vinyl for all
those other DJs out there to play, and he’s always working on new
material. DJ C will be pushing his Mashit
label into over drive. The 3rd Mashit 12” record is about to come
out, and 5 more are currently in the pipeline. The records are selling
well worldwide, and he plans to begin touring in support of Mashit in
the coming months. C and Flack will be working together on their DuoTone
project, making new music, and perfecting their live performance, which
they plan to take on the road as well.
We miss our Tuesday night home and friends a lot. Thank you again for
all your support.
Love,
DJ C, DJ Flack, and Verbnine
