*EDIT*


I want to apologize for my earlier post stating that the benefit for Randy was scheduled for tonight, July 22.

It clearly states on the flyer that it is scheduled for next week, the 29th.

Again, I apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. It's been a long week. Not a lot of sleep and long days into nights are taking their toll on my brain. Looking forward to a full 8 hours of sleep tonight.

RIP Randy Flash

Last night, Monday, July 19, Randy "Flash" Miller passed away. Randy was in the hospital in critical condition after suffering a gunshot wound to the chest the previous Thursday, July 15th at a party.

I can't believe he is gone. I had run into him about a month ago at the Chinatown bus station in Philadelphia. We were both waiting for the 6:30 am bus to NYC. It was great catching up and talking shop. Sad to think that that was the last time I was to see him.

A memorial event is taking place this Thursday, July 22, from 6pm-2am at Octo (221 N. Columbus Blvd. aka Delaware Ave., Philadelphia). Admission is $20 and all proceeds are going to the Randall Miller Memorial Fund.

/// This week's SOUNDLIB will feature the Bronx's double L, a founding member of G13 Sound International who made a name for himself over the past decade spinning hip-hop, reggae and dancehall at parties and clubs as part of Philly's reputed DJ scene.

A classically trained musician with a love for music across genres, double L's range extends well beyond the usual party fare. Lately, he's been showcasing his diverse tastes and mixes through two music blogs: Nite Cap Selections (http://nitecapselections.blogspot.com), focusing on downtempo and soul; and, In Your Blood Clot Face (http://bloodclotface.blogspot.com), dedicated to reggae, dancehall and soca.

We're excited to have him demonstrate some of that musical versatility in person on the decks at SOUNDLIB this week.

DJ LIL TIGER will also be in the place with his trademark selections of soul (new and old), funk, Hip-Hop, afrobeat, reggae and much more.

As always, the party is FREE all night. We start and end EARLY (9pm-1am), so we won't keep you out too late. Hope to see you there. ... ///
