August 27th, 2010 - Rainbow Dreams
By MTT
Photos & Video By M. Coghlan
We got to the Beauty Bar early, gazing at the strangely deserted underpass street. Shortly afterwards, the dj's trickled in: Los Bermanos, Mr. G and D. Clapp. The Beauty Bar was actually filled with random bits of sound equipment ... a subwoofer there, a prehistoric cd player here, a slab of sharp glass under the turntable which could automatically hari-kari any dj that got too close. Despite this the Rainbow Dreams team managed to fashion a fearsome frankenstein soundsystem out of all these different parts ... and then, they retrofitted D. Clapp's speakers, for good measure.
Los Bermanos, Marco Tulio Thrash (Live), Mr. G. & D.Clapp Live @ RD4 (8-7-10)
(almost 5 hours!)
August 5th, 2010 - Event
For this installment we have special guest Marco Tulio Thrash performing a very special LIVE set (a Rainbow Dreams first), as well as Mr. G droppin' the heat. We will also have new interactive visuals (in the form on an old-school overhead projector and dry-erase markers). Sweet! See you there.

RD3 Postmortum
As promised, here's the recording from the last RD. 4+ hours of questionably-mixed jams, with rapid DJ change-ups and the occasional fade-out to birthday wish combo. Still getting the hang of this recorder, so apologies for the occasional level shifts.
If you need a track ID or want to know which DJ played what, holla at us.
Next RD is on Friday, so stay tuned.
