DONT ASK DONT TELL: BRENMAR


How does DADT do Halloween? BIG. AND IN STYLE.

What better way to celebrate the approaching All Hallows Eve then with one of the top electronic music producers in the world? There isn't a better way. Ladies and Gentlemen may I introduce Brenmar to the stage. [cue lights]

Maybe you didnt hear me... I said BRENMAR.
YES. THEEEE BRENMAR!!!

What has Brenmar done? Let me lay down the leather studded carpet first, I dont wanna get any celebrity footwear dirty.

He has produced tracks for Nina Sky, Mykki Blanco and Tigga Calore. He has worked on original tracks in the studio with some of musics freshest names including MikeQ, DJ Sliink, DJ Rashad, Zebra Katz and DJ Fade. He has released HUGE remixes of Cassie, Aaliyah, Kirko Bangz, Kanye West, Beyonce, Rihanna, Ashanti, Nguzuguzu, and Jamie Foxx. He has had his own BBC Radio 1 broadcast being a featured artist on Diplo and Friends show. Shall I stop there? No. Lets keep going. Brenmar was named FADER's Top 10 producers to watch and released mixtapes for them, XLR8R, and Fact Magazine.

What can't this 28 year old artist accomplish? Pretty much nothing. With over 20k followers on Soundcloud and countless fans worldwide Brenmar is a force to be reckoned with. Hailing from Chicago and NYC this producer makes, in his own words, "Club music for the present".

DADT is honored to have him come to Boston the weekend before Halloween to show us a reaaaal good time. But in real horrorshow fashion Brenmar will be joined by many other fabulous acts, including:

DONT ASK DONT TELL: SAINT PEPSI


You are the consumer. You are the brand. You are the Target. You are the image. Blessed be to you for living in the west. The security of falling asleep in your warm little bed because you were a good little consumer and bought everything you wanted. Andy Warhol would have loved you.

In honor of your material nature we are holding an event where you can "celebrate" your "individualism".

The theme is BRANDS. Which one do you hate? Love? Show it. So will we- and this is how.

DADT is pleased to announce we will be hosting the marvelous SAINT PEPSI on our stage!

Saint Pepsi is a young producer with the midas touch. Taking funk and hip hop samples to the next level he creates and performs infectious dance tracks. Such as his single "Better" which very recently was just played in a dance mix by LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy out in LA. This boy is taking the music scene by storm. Being written up in blogs and music magazines alike, his popularity is on a sharp incline. Check out these articles for instance:

http://bcgavel.com/2013/08/27/saint-pepsi-an-interview-with-bcs-up-and-coming-music-producer/

Now, and with NEW material to be featured just for us, this master of party is landing on the DADT stage for the school kick off party of the year! So before Saint Pepsi tours the world, come and take the Pepsi challenge. We promise you won't be disappointed. Here are more links to the holiest of performers.

This year alone Colby has opened up for Pictureplane, MikeQ, LE1F, Mykki Blanco, Pajaritos and spun alongside numerous other talented Boston DJ's such as Blk. Adonis, Brizgnar, Leah V, Swelta, El Poser and Fuzzy Fotch. He is honored to open for Saint Pepsi and is ready to keep the crowd hollering all night long.
