TONIGHT, NYC

David Holmes w/ Andy Votel
when: Fri 6.2 (10pm)
where: APT (419 W 13th St, 212.414.4245)
price: $12 / $10 advance

David Holmes' current day job finds him melding the underground and the mainstream; pairing long-lost soul rarities, other vinyl gems, and his own edits with top-tier Hollywood blockbusters like Ocean's Twelve. Though the producer and archivist has long had an interest in soundtrack work of this sort, his DJing pedigree is certainly up-to-nick as well. Extremely versatile and able to play to a small, sweaty Northern soul crowd one night and an anthemic techno big-room the next, Holmes joins another high-caliber selector/collector: Twisted Nerve label head Andy Votel. Sure to delight vinyl-obsessives of ethno-psych, Krautrock, bizzaro-folk, prog, deep soul, funk, and more. (CJN)
