AN AFTERNOON WITH MISTER
SATURDAY NIGHT AND MOODYMANN
Mister Saturday Night is throwing a daytime get-down at 12-Turn-13, a
loft with hardwood floors, hardwood
ceilings, and a big,
comfy roof in the middle of Brooklyn. Bloody marys and mimosas are
on the menu; our friend Fiore Tedesco from The
Brooklyn Laundry is
making egg tacos and other brunch snacks; and you can bring your little
ones and your dogs. We love it when they come.
Residents Justin
Carter and Eamon
Harkin will be laying down the
disco,
house and such; and our special guest is Moodymann,
a Motor City
legend. We've
heard him drop everything from boogie to grime to techno, but no matter
what he plays it's always super funky and super fun. The
last time he came to
town, he ended up doing an impromptu late-night version of Freaky
MF live with The Egyptian Lover
providing backup on 808. The time before that he played radio DJ all
night long, announcing nearly every song and shouting out people's
birthdays. We never know what to expect with Kenny Dixon, Jr., and we
wouldn't have it any other way.
note. We just got hip to the
fact that KDJ did an
interview and DJ set on Gilles
Peterson's show on BBC about two years ago. Have a listen. It's
insightful and just plain good.
