Thank you for the emails and comments. The inspiration was gone for a minute, but then I just got caught up in Beat Brokers and New Frontier. Man, for someone who doesn’t have a job, I’ve been very busy. Graphic design stuff has take off, and I’ve been designing MySpace pages for various artists and [...]


Back in L.A.

15Oct08

I got back to L.A. on Monday afternoon. Before boarding the plane i received an email with an invitation to Ashanti’s birthday party at Area for tonight. Akon was supposed to perform there, too. And since we go back a while this would be the perfect opportunity to network and spread the Beat Brokers gospel. [...]


Watching football with friends on HUGE plasmas in Hi Def is the best way to spend your Sunday. We’re at Shawn’s office – the guy who got us the table last night – with $150,000 of electronics in this room: 5 plasmas, LCDs, surround sound. And lazy boys all around. Awesome. I’ll put up a [...]


I’ve never been to a club like this before. Tryst is a uber high end night club at the Wynn in Vegas. We have a VIP table next to a stripper pole, courtesy of the owner. Fresh bottles of Patron XO are arriving every 15 minutes. The people are beautiful, friendly but drunk out of [...]


Part 3 of Nick’s birthday bash got post poned to today (Saturday). And to be honest, I haven’t partied like that in a long time, so I was kinda tired after two days. I guess I’m getting old. We met D’s friend Rachel and her BF at PF Changs on Thursday night. Rachel used to [...]


Wednesday was pretty laid back. I dropped Denosh off at rehearsal, answered emails, send out some remixes, got lost at our resort and went to Nick Bennett’s birthday bash lunch at Yolos. Nick brought a bunch of his friends and Denosh joined us at the end for the birthday cake on her break. Afterwards [...]


Las Vegas is the shit. It’s just like in the movies – incredible resorts, gambling everywhere (I’m down $10), beautiful weather, and (smoking) people on slot machines.
We arrived on Sunday afternoon and checked in to the Planet Hollywood resort, that was built less than a year on the famous strip. Business must be BOOMING, [...]


Hollywood hysteria, originally uploaded by Future CEO.

I arrived in L.A. on Monday night after a 16h trip. Denosh was rehearsing and asked a friend to pick me up from LAX. I saw her pass me three times before she saw me. Miscommunication, what can I say. She dropped me off at The Belmont for [...]


I met up with my good friend Martijn Tjho for dinner last night. We had a bite to eat at one of my favorite restaurants in the “Rivieren Buurt” of Amsterdam and talked about the NEW music business. I love hanging out with this dude. Every time I do, I get so inspired to want [...]
