Greetings Gang - It’s been a while...and it might be again!
We’ve been chillin’ and relaxin’ for a couple of months, making food happenings and music websites, and trying to figure out what’s what in the world of beat-driven music. And, having spent some time on Rinse.FM, we think we’ve found a perfect somebody for the perfect Treehouse. (And, yes, at a perfect time.)

Greetings Gang - It’s been a while...and it might be again!
We’ve been chillin’ and relaxin’ for a couple of months, making food happenings and music websites, and trying to figure out what’s what in the world of beat-driven music. And, having spent some time on Rinse.FM, we think we’ve found a perfect somebody for the perfect Treehouse. (And, yes, at a perfect time.)
Meet SBTRKT (
http://soundcloud.com/sbtrkt), a man with a plan, a new album on Young Turks/XL (
http://www.sbtrkt.com/sbtrktdebut.php), and a gig at PS1’s awesome “Warm-Up” party this upcoming Saturday (alongside Treehouse fave/friend Four Tet) (Go!:
http://newyork.timeout.com/music-nightlife/nightlife/1633751/warm-up-2011-four-tet). SBTRKT represents a current London dance sound that mixes whatever dubstep has turned into, with whatever our beloved Detroit/Chicago sound has spawned, and whatever “World” music has been seeded inside DJ DNA. (He also plays Stevie Wonder records...so, who knows?) (Proof:

After the PS1 daytime jam, SBTRKT has decided to come to Greenpoint and play a few with yours truly, Mr. Jones and Mr. ‘boy. And we’d love for you to be there.
‘Cause it might be the last one for a while. What with food happenings, music websites and (gottnabbit) babies, Team Treehouse has been overwhelmed with responsibilities...though rarely too overwhelmed to discover new records. (

Before then, we hope this Saturday’s jam not only lasts ya, but blasts ya. God knows, we’d love to see you. Please think about RSVP’ing as we’ll be expecting overflow from the museum day rave (plus, our friends at The Hype Machine are helping us spread the word:

Please bring an open mind and a loose booty, and we’ll see you on the dance-floor!
