GDD Exclusive: Tropicool – Gooch Tape #1

On a Sunday night, in a beach town not so far away from you, I cracked open a Pacifico and began to ponder what I would do as the elusive evening drew closer and city lights began to flicker on. I decided to soul-search and ate a few silver-striped mushrooms out of an old embroidered Chinese box I had hidden beneath the dock. As I walked along the beach, the sand softly tickled my toes and the waves crashed in a perfect symphony. Just then, Poseidon’s froth had washed something hard up onto my foot. It was a glistening whiskey bottle; Jameson’s own to be exact. I opened it up, expecting a rich carmel liquid to engulf my soul and warm it from the inside out. However, out fell a flash drive where the words “Gooch-Tape #1″ were engraved. It was a sign; a sign that good things were coming. A sign that the warmth and sun-kissed poolside jams of summer would flow into the colorful world autumn had to offer. Warm your soul and paint your walls gold!

THE VERSUS PARTY: UNDERGROUND DISCO EDITION feat. U-Tern + Guns In The Sun + Tropicool + Bixel Boys

We’d like to thank everyone who came out for the last couple weeks of our VERSUS party downtown @ ICON. Unfortunately, the management was not on the same musically-oriented page as us, and we weren’t happy! We want this weekly party to be the easiest way for you guys to dance dirty on a Thursday night, and that includes location, price, and fun level (duh).

So this week, we bring you a special VERSUS party – underground disco edition @ the (downtown) Belasco Theater Basement. To keep the summer groovin vibes and the dirty disco atmosphere, we bring you a one-off event in one of the coolest locations in Los Angeles. The now LA-based U-TERN will showcase his disc jockey skills and be supported by our good buddies Guns In The Sun, along with our GDD resident chill wave Tropicool and dF’s No Shirt/No Shoes Bixel Boys. Man oh man, are we in for it again.

OPEN BAR:
 What makes this thursday more attractive? Oh yeah, the OPEN BAR until 11pm doesn’t hurt either. The party starts @ 10, so you oughta’ get there for the power hour to warm up those disco dance moves!

No Shirt // No Shoes MindTai.com Launch Party!

This Saturday we will gather at the hip and swanky rooftop of the Downtown LA Standard Hotel for the official launch of MindTai, a collaborative project involving some of our closest friends in the extended GDD family. The website is basically a collaboration of cool. Mindtai’s goal is to tickle your creative fruits through posting only the raddest of content covering categories such as: Music, Surf, Skate, Culture, Art, Film, and Fashion, just to name a few. They will be teaming up with dubFrequency and The Ampal Creative to bring to you the 2nd installment of No Shirt / No Shoes. What better place to get all the creative juices flowing than such a radicool atmosphere. We will combine forces with all of our friends, as well as those who inspire us and will be inviting them to enjoy the sun-kissed rays and funky beats. If you want to meet some interesting people, feast your chops on some eye-candy, and dance the soles off your All-Star’s and flip-flops I’d consider making it down.

The GDD extended family is huge, and we love you all!

Here’s what went down at the last one:

There will be free Jell-O shots as well as give-aways from The Ampal Creative!
