[Dynagroove] John Larner!

[joplin at joplinshouse.com]

I had t
he pleasure of seeing John Larner rock it up at Focus in Fresno this past
Sunday and he was

absolut
ely incredible!! I have been a fan of his production but  hadn't had the
chance to see hi
m
spin ye
t, though I know Imad had him out for the Good Life recently. He brings it
funky, har
d,
deep an
d dirty- and programming and mixing skills are flawless. Also an extremely
funny
and
humble
guy...  I know he will be at Free Thinking this Friday and I highly suggest
you dont s
leep
on thi
s

!!!

On a s
i
de note, I just have to say a word or two about the scene up in
Fresno.
As I am
 sure most of you will agree, there are more elements than  just the DJ that
make t
he music
and the
 overall night spectacular.  Focus has been running in Fresno for  four years,
ev
ery other
Sunday
night. The guys that run it are some of the most genuine, talented,  amb
itious and
passion
ate people I have ever met, not to mention three bad ass DJ's! (Clint Storm
, Merle and
Bradley
) They have created and built a scene that oozes with love and passion for
House music-
somethi
ng I think every scene strives for. From the promoters, to equipment, to the
a
ctual set up,
to the
 venue, to the lighting, to the bar ($4 cocktails!!), to the crowd,
to the talent-
the ene
rgy of this place is
s
imply perfect.

I know

its hard to believe somewhere like Fresno could really be all  that
 great, but thats
probabl
y exactly why it is. I know we are continually trying to create and supp
ort our House and
music c
ommunity, so I thought I would share this with you all... Who knows,
 maybe on your way
back fr
om SF you'll be driving through and d
ecide to stop in : )
If you
visit www.sonicfoundation.net they've got the lineup and info  and so
me other cool events
that

ta
ke place up there.

Now go

see

J
ohn Lar
ner on Friday!!
