A-List Hamptons Hustling

Damn right, I'm featured in July's "Who's Who" section of Hamptons Magazine.
FLO & Jonesy- Hamptons House Party (live dj set)

For those that aren't familiar with the Hamptons: basically, a giant chunk of New Yorkers dipset out of NYC every weekend and make the 3 hour drive up the spine of Long Island to the small Hampton villages along the Atlantic Coast to escape the immense NYC humidity. The majority of this crowd are the rich, social, and native New Yorkers who are very loyal to their summer Hamptons lifestyle. I'm talking about a place where every house is laced with white-picket fences, every car in the streets are maybachs or mercedez, convertible Lamborghinis are parked with the drop-top down, a place where everyone is shopping at Citarella before they go to a polo match and drink champagne quality that is X > Veuve Clicquot, and a place that is far enough from New York where people can finally get f*cked up with out feeling the never-ending pressures of New York City. Basically "A-List" people come to the Hamptons and get very loose and drunk, and sh*t goes down...

Swiss Summer Pt. 3- DJ @ Frauenfeld Openair


Here we go again. To cap off our DJ trip we were on our way to camp out in Frauenfeld, Switzerland for 4 nights of pure Swiss rawkus. It was our 2nd year DJing @ Frauenfeld, and in addition to this it was me  Jonesy's 2nd year as the headlining acts for the Mash-Up Party tent.

Swiss Summer Pt. 2- Trip To The Alps


After Touch The Lake we were all jet-lagged, hung-over, smoked out, you name it. Our bodies were on a very strange schedule. Fatfingaz and Getlive were literally sleeping like 14 hours a day while Jonesy and I could only sleep 3 hours a day. Now being my 4th time to Switzerland, it was killing me to think that I had yet to take a trip to visit Switzerland's most prized natural asset; the Alps. Ever since I was young I imagined hiking the Alps, and this time I would not let the chance pass.


I swear, I bugged my homie Steve Supreme for days about helping me find a way to the Alps. I get really anxious when opportunity to explore is at hand. Ask and thou shall receive: our Swiss homie Marcus took us to the magnificent valley of Laax, about 1.5 hrs from Zurich, right in the Alps.

Swiss Summer Pt. 1- Touch The Lake


Fresh back from Cali, Jonesy and I had 2 nights in NYC and then it was off to Zurich, Switzerland For our 4th DJ visit. We crammed into our tiny American Airline seats and prepared for our 11 day journey where we were booked to play at 2 of the largest music festivals in Europe.

Our schedule looked like this:
July 2nd - 4th: DJ @ Touch The Lake Festival, Zurich CH
July 5th - 8th: Open time to explore Switzerland
July 8th- 11th: DJ @ Frauenfeld Openair Festival, Frauenfeld CH
