WE'RE excited for the return of this wonderful (and free) MUSIC & VISUAL sensory series @ Maria's Packaged Goods & Community Bar for the 2012-2013 ski/snowboard season. Yeah, we know it's Chicago and we here pretty much live in flatland. But that doesn't mean we don't have present and aspiring powder hounds in the city that want to swap mountain stories or just folks wanting to catch this very cool vibe. And with so much positive feedback last year, we had to do it again.

Our "kick-off" event featuring LGA (aka Luis Gabriel Aguilera) & the return of SNOW DOCTA' is Friday, November 30th.  And we've just been informed that Kyle Glasner will be turning out some of his vinyl for the opening party - some wicked house tunes for the late night crowd.

Come out early. There will be no "fillers" in what audio goodies we have in store for you - everything from 60s and 70s groove lounge to glitch tech madness. Remember to bring the helmets, goggles, bad sweaters, or whatever else you find to be ski/snowboard chic. Full Spectrum has been getting us down since 1997, but it's the crowd that has brought the vibe.

Cheers! Stola! Salud!

1-HOUR SPECIAL PISTON RECORDINGS DJ SET BY: LGA

Piston Recordings (another favorite Portuguese electronica label of Luis) was born in 2007 out of the hands of Rogério Martins, Managing Director, A&R and Artist, to fill the void in Portugal’s independent dance music labels dedicated to young and fresh new talent.

At Piston Recordings it’s not all about the music. It’s also about growing and nurturing a family of artists with their music and establishing strong bonds with them. For those at Piston, it doesn’t matter if it’s Deep House, Techno, Chillout or whatever you want to call it, what matters is the people behind it.

Today Piston continues to deliver its promise, looking out for new and uprising talent who need a solid platform to release their music! Enjoy this edition of HFTM with a special 1-hr Piston Recordings dj set by none other than Maria’s resident DJ: lga \ aka Luis Aguilera \ aka Luis Gabriel Aguilera.
