Check out this sneak peek into the preparations for the Sexual Chocolate Band & Show’s triumphant unveiling at the Axel F anniversary.
In 2011, a concept was born to take a wondrous period of dance music out of the dark and into the light.
This magical time from 1977 – 1987 bore the imprint of the disco age and the promise of the hip-hop era to come. It was the music we partied to when Reaganomics was going hard. A time when your video was not touching hearts and minds without synchronized body rolls and laser light effects.
It’s all the music that no one else ever plays at ’80s parties.
Throughout 2011 we celebrated this music, and you showered it with the love it deserves. We called it Axel F, after Eddie Murphy’s character in Beverly Hills Cop.
This month we celebrate one year of The Illest In Jheri Curl Funk, Champagne Soul & Lazer Boogie.

Check out this rewind from May with DJ Keenan Orr:
While I prefer to celebrate Michael Jackson’s birth rather than his death, it would be wrong not to honor him at our party that takes place on the actual anniversary date. So shamon’, y’all…
JAHSONIC and ADRIAN LOVING return, along with DJ STYLUS to fill out the funk.
Thanks to all of you special people who’ve made this party silkier than Billie Dee’s pomp.

I’ve returned from Bali (more on that later) and I’m jumping back into things in grand fashion. I hope you all missed me.
FRIDAY
Join me at a tight little spot on H St called Fruit Bat. I’ll be playing anything I feel like and it’s a relaxed, hanging at the crib type vibe… unless y’all feel like partying then we can do that too. Feel free to buy me a drink to toast my return. They’re pretty delicious and you can experiment with making your own.
Fresh squeezed and seasonal juice cocktails with a B.Y.O.C. (Build Your Own Cocktail) approach… Go ahead be creative and the expert staff will hold your hand along the way.
