Just back from a visit with Ace Pearls. Ace is doing DJ work for some youngsters. He plays the analog wooka-wooka, aka the turn-table mixer. Nobody has hands like Ace. He’s the acknowledged king of both the upfader and the crossfader and he can manually reverse a vinyl lp and never leave a scratch… wooka-wooka. He’s telling me it’s all about having a fresh Shure Mix turntable cartridge, but it also takes a steady hand. Ace is too modest.
P Doggy Tutu (or Toot Dog as his fans have named him) leads the group P Doggy 2 Do (aka “the 2Do”). I think they’re named for something a beloved pet left on your lawn. Toot Dog shows his edgy side with fishnet crinoline and pounds of bling. He also pounds a four/four drum beat behind everything the (P Doggie) 2 Do do. It’s that steady beat that gives Ace the framework for his mix.
The 2 Do is opening for Punk-wave nostalgia rockers, 9 Inch Press-ons this Friday at the Wharf-rat Room. Put them on your d0ggi3 do0-do0 to do list.
