Local DJ dynamo Car Stereo (Wars), a.k.a. Chris Rose, rocked a lot of block parties this year with his sly mix of hip-hop and rock ‘n’ roll oddities, a schizophrenic, Girl Talk-like
crate-digging trip showcased on full-length debut The Bandit, which blends the last three decades of music into a smooth Frappuccino laced with just a touch of cough syrup and Southern attitude. Atlanta’s Treasure Fingers is a heavy hitter in the world of remixes, but it’s his DJ sets that have made him a favorite of the IHeartComix crowd, combining squelchy, Daft Punk retro-futurism with the kind of old-school electro that calls for shiny track suits and vintage Pumas.Stay Gold’s DJ Andy The Mouth kicks off this all-night dance party.
