    SHIRTS!

    hello. sorry for the delay with the shirts,
    but we finally have them ready to go. they
    are available in either black or dark blue
    shirts with metallic black ink. when
    ordering state your shirt color preference,
    but please be aware you may not get the
    color you want, so be prepared to get black
    if you order blue, or vice versa- but we will
    try our hardest to fill your request!!!
    we only have a small number of these and they
    will probably go really fast.
  • order them HERE

    1987-1990 when i was working there (even though i was
    grossly under age!)

    I'm back on Beats In Space

    Hello. Next Tuesday, i believe Feb 12 maybe- I'll
    be back to do the guest dj thing Beats In Space for what
    i believe is my fifth time... It must be some sort of
    world record. I think Tim mentioned there will be
    an awards ceremony involving a trophy and oversized
    check.

    This appearance is special because Tim asked me to
    do an all-Krautrock special perhaps to celebrate the imminent
    release of the Invisible Conga People 12"? Maybe because
    disco is over and emo is back? We will never know now
    will we???

    Mike djing in BERLIN / FRANKFURT

    HI. I will be traveling to Germany to play records
    and give out t-shirts to the German contingent. When
    I get back we will have the Italians t-shirts available
    for sale. Sorry for the delay! If you are in Germany
    please come out and while you're there, bring me some
    La Dusseldorf records please?? ACTUALLY , speaking of
    Germany, I will be making a return appearance to my
    man Tim's BEATS IN SPACE radio program on Feb 12th as
    part of his Krautrock special. I think its my 5th time
    on his show? 4th maybe? Either way, it will be all
    Krautrock- i'm literally psyched about this!

    MIKE's BIRTHDAY PARTY THIS WEEKEND

    Hello NYC. Come celebrate the birth of Mike
    Simonetti this weekend in the form of a
    dj playing records for you to dance to.

    Mike turns 18 all over again and djs a party
    to prove it.

    -------------------------------------

    Friday Jan 18 2008 at Tatler @ LOTUS:
    409 W 14th St
    between 9th & 10th Ave - NYC

    -------------------------------------

    also playing with myself is my man Justin
    Miller of 205 club fame. He also works at
    this upstart label called DFA. Perhaps you've
    heard of them? I think they have a bright
    future ahead of them. Just found out Jacques
    is playing too.

    This party is a co-birthday party for myself
    and my very good friend Michael T, who
    is best known for being one of the founders
    of Motherfucker (RIP), and an overall great
    person in the otherwise dismal NYC nightlife
    scene.


    There is a $20 cover charge for this party.
    For those of you who dont know, Lotus is
    one of those Meatpacking District super clubs
    that was on Sex And The City and all that
    stuff. BUT i have an unlimited guest list, so
    if you want to get in for FREE, email me at
    mike@troublemanunlimited.com
    tell your friends. It's all good in the hood.

    I'll be in London and Newcastle to dj on Jan
    25 & 26. More on that soon.

    Italians t-shirts getting reprinted

    hi. due to demand we will be making a small reprint
    of Italians shirts. These will be the same block letter
    design, except it will be black ink on black shirts.
    They look excellent! We should have them in a week or so.
    We are only making 25 shirts in this limited color run.
