***This month we proudly welcome MIKE 2600 (Minneapolis/ Burlesque)***
MIKE 2600 is a 16-year veteran DJ, having rocked parties from San Francisco to St. Paul, from Oregon to Osaka. Born and raised in Nashville, Mike moved to Minneapolis in 2003 and immediately began throwing the “Let’s Get Electric” party in the V.I.P. Room at First Avenue, a monthly excursion into Miami Bass, Southern Bounce, 1980s pop classics, disco, and post-punk. Years later, Mike is still going strong on the turntables throughout the Twin Cities, organizing and DJing at First Avenue’s giant Prince and Michael Jackson tribute dance parties, spinning at Rhymesayers’ annual Soundset festival and on their RSE Radio program on KFAI, and can be found regularly rocking at parties like Get Cryphy, Bomp, and Triple Double, and the annual Dre Day celebration, all helping City Pages choose him as their Best Club DJ of 2010. His latest party, EXTRA LARGE, finds Mike and a different guest DJ each month cutting up the finest in dancefloor-friendly funk, hip hop, dancehall, Moombahton, and more.
Mike’s funk-fueled remixes and original productions have been included in sets by world class DJs such as Peanut Butter Wolf, DJ AM, Freddy Fresh, DJ Yoda, Cosmo Baker, and featured on Los Angeles’ Indie 103FM. Mike has rocked at parties such as The Rub (NY), The Do-Over (LA), The Woods (Seattle), and Club Crooks (Portland) and has shared the stage and opened up for DJs and acts including Atmosphere, Dam Funk, DJ Craze, Mixmaster Mike, Spank Rock, Madlib, Peanut Butter Wolf, Nadastrom, Tittsworth, DJ Assault, Prince Paul, Flosstradamus, Jinder, and Tiesto.
