Each and every Sunday it’s Marinate Sundays with Federation Sound at Medusa Lounge.  Kenny Meez holds it down with special guests.  This week Gregg Nyce and Romes will be in the spot. Gregg is constantly featured on here for his flawless mixing in the Lunch Box series or his numerous remixes.  Romes is your favorite DJ when you head out to clubs like Pearl, Denim etc.  Romes is part of the working DJ’s in bottle service clubs that have the event name and random details featured instead of who is spinning.  Needless to say he is in the top tier of quality Philly DJ’s.

Gregg Nyce just released a pack of reggae blends featuring the Snoop x Kid Cudi x Diplo produced That Tree.  Grab them here from mediafire.

Another round of snow outside and it sure as hell doesn’t feel like Jamaica outside, but it will definitely sound like it (and I bet the gyals and rude bwoys will be lookin’ the part too, knamean?) inside the Robinson Ballroom on Saturday night.  Philly is a convenient halfway point for a northeastern throwdown, pitting selectors from DC, NYC, and PHL for the title of selector of the year 2k9 at the inaugural Selectors Ball.

Champe of West Philly radio station WBEP‘s Lion’s Den (yr total reggae fix every Saturday on the getting-ready-hrs) will be DJing — in the JA sense, that means MC — the event.  As the flyer would indicate, this jawn goes late in North (North North) Philly.

Brand new Major Lazer video for Keep It Goin Louder featuring Nina Sky & Ricky Blaze. This one is directed by Eric from the Tim & Eric show. Eric also directed Pon De Floor. Personally I think I like the original Keep It Goin Louder video. This one is just creepy.

Can’t let Casi G hog all the blog since I rolled out to LDN for the weekend just to hang with that joker.  Even though it’s halfway through the weekend, it’s not like any of you Philly cats are really over here (other than Mad Decent, but they’ve got their own party).  Mostly it’s a chance to brag about all the amazing Notting Hill Carnival weekend parties!

Friday

• Why Not? A Dubstep Carnival! (Giessel: “Dude how could you have missed this?  They’ve been hyping it on RinseFM for two months.)
• London School of Samba drum workshop
• Ragga Twins, Luke Vibert, Altern-8 at Bang Face 69 (we tried to get in this one — line a mile long, London-style)

Saturday

• Heatwave’s Urban Nerds Party — we’ll be there soon if we ever get off our computers.

Sunday

• Carnival Day 1
• Heatwave vs. Lostbanhof Carnival Afterparty at Cherry Jam
• Secousse Carnival Special at the Notting Hill Arts Club
• “Hot Hot!!” at Hypnotic Wine Bar — no address, no Internet listing . . . but the flyer came with a promo CD from Blacker Dread record store

Do you like funky house, soca, or bashment? by gregzinho

Monday

• Carnival Day 2 — let it all out before Casi goes back to DB at 8:30 am the next day!!!  38 sound systems and a soca-samba-reggae parade.  Why haven’t I come here before?
