Hooked on the DollsSS 13 Fashion Week Mixtape

This is the only NYFW / FNO mixtape you need. My friends Mia Moretti & Caitlin Moe are the hottest (and the, you know, hottest!) thing happening in music right now. Last summer I shot this video of Mia & Caitlin playing an unbelievably energetic and obsessively captivating live set in Hollywood — Mia spinning the hottest new music you don’t even know you love yet mixed with the some of the most iconic pop and rock tracks from the past 50 years while Caitlin’s mind-blowing, impeccable classical violin brings the music to life in ways that make you wonder how the hits (from The Beatles to Daft Punk to M83 to Garbage) weren’t recorded with a classical strings section… there’s nothing like seeing the duo perform live, but along with Harper’s Bazaar, they have put together this mix so you can feel like you’re front-row at Fashion Week any time you wish.

Of course Mia and Caitlin are more than just pretty faces tearing through the fashion world — next week they’ll be playing for the likes of Calvin Klein and Prabal Guring during New York Fashion Week, but this week they’re at the Democratic National Convention, energizing and inspiring young voters to take action through the ROCK THE VOTE organization… they’re truly renaissance women, with a truly dope mixtape.

Remembering my friend, DJ AM
I found this 2007 photograph of my friend DJ AM that I’ve never published before… It feels like it was yesterday — 5 years ago this week — that he jumped on the decks at Cinespace and set the crowd off. Back then we took it for granted, it wasn’t a special occurrence, it wasn’t a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, it was just what we did every week. My friends Mark, Steve, Cory, Rony, Trevor, Mia… everyone else… we were all so much younger, we didn’t talk about success or being on top or making a living, we were just there go crazy, to party and sweat and dance and have a good time.
A little bit of our world died with Adam, and as much as he is missed, everyone who knew him or was there back in the day is grateful to have experienced his gift. He was the best, and touched so many lives and… I don’t think any of us will ever forget him.

Michael Jackson Forever Mix — DJ KAYPER

Adding “for a girl” to any statement is reductive, dismissive bullshit. To say someone is an amazing photographer, designer, DJ, writer, soccer player, web developer, whatever for a girl creates an arbitrary qualifier that diminishes the statement… We should all strive to be excellent in whatever we do, to be the best, period! Everything that comes after “the best” is just an excuse.

Kayper is an amazing DJ, one of the best (and I know the best). Her set at the Neon Carnival was probably the best part of Coachella this year, she’s got incredible skills and spins at the best and most exclusive events around the world. Which is why I hate when I hear people say she’s one of the best female DJs around, or she’s an amazing DJ for a girl. Like so many other artists, musicians, programmers, athletes, whatever — she’s amazing for a girl… or for a guy, or an Asian, or an octupus, or an android… she’s one of the best. Period.

I’ve had her Michael Jackson Forever mix in rotation for a while — it’s the perfect summer jam to get you through the day or to blast as you drop the top and head to Malibu. Download it and more hot mixes on Kayper’s Soundcloud.

DJ AM - Live from Winter Music Conference (WMC) 2008

Another mix from DJ AM to honour his birthday… last night friends and DJs from around the world came to celebrate Adam’s life — it’s incredible that years later the love everyone has for him is just as strong as when he was here.  

I love this mix a lot and it never seems to get old. Perfect mix to get you warmed up for Coachella, for a weekend by the pool, or just a way to escape a little bit on a Friday afternoon.

To celebrate the launch of their first single SO BEAUTIFUL, my lovely friends MIA MORETTI & CAITLIN MOE (with my help, of course) have created a contest where fans can download original footage of the duo and create a music video for the single. The winner will be published exclusively on NYLONMAG.COM.
Mia and Caitlin are everywhere right now — ELLE Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, Nylon, Black Book, et al. and the video remix contest is a chance for everyone to show off their creativity and be part of something really cool… I predicted Lady Gaga would be huge on this blog in 2008, and then KE$HA in 2009 — I’m pretty good at seeing potential and I know Mia & Caitlin are going to be the next big thing.  For more information and to learn how to participate, check out Nylonmag.com.
