fmly fest


It’s time for the FMLY to come together.

We’re nearing the end of the aughts and to put Thanksgiving to shame we’d love to embrace all of the kind folks, awesome jams and unique experiences we’ve shared together. We’d like to throw a real FMLY festival coming from the heart. If you have a zine, graphic design firm, tutoring biz, circuit bending club, bike co-op, vegan bakery, or just a love for all things respectful and communal then hit us back. If you have a band, art form, musical endeavor, journal, film, new sex position, installation that you’d like to share, we want it.

On December 27 and 28 at the new chill spot, 5011, FMLY wants to combine minds with everyone we’ve jammed with over time and toss as many new names into the mix as we can. Together, let’s write the last pages of this decade’s influence on us. Fuck yeah!

hansen hunters

The homie Djavan (Head Hunters, Blackwater) entered a photo contest (his photo is above) for Hansen’s soda. Grand prize is $5,000 and, rightfully so, Deej isn’t too far off from calling dibs on that pot. If you have a minute, just click here and check the vote button. You can vote three times within a 24hr period so feel free to abuse that. Of course the dude has to pay for college, but just imagine what he could do with another piece of audio equipment?

da bears’ cowardly cobra set free

It’s summer and nothing feels greater than just laying in a hammock with a nice tall can of PBR. The breeze blows your hair into your face as you near napping and the smell of neighbors’ bbq will surely supply the tastiest of dreams. A faint noise appears from your home, it seems as though someone threw on some early Unicorns; the drums are sped to the point where you can’t tell if they’re man or machine and with such playful nasal falsettos there must be some type of party going on indoors. You continue on the brink of napping until curiousity overwhelms your sense of audibility and this music must be experienced fully. Upon entering home it isn’t the Unicorns, and it isn’t pre-electronic of Montreal…it’s Da Bears!

On Thursday, May 28 FMLY will present our first event of the summer: Respect The House Party. Among the playahs will be San Diego’s Da Bears, a grizzly-pop band that we just can’t fucking get enough of! Seriously, it’s like someone dipped these guys into a cotton candy machine and the result was a combination of all of our favorite sounds; bells, kick-ass drums, embracing melodies, get on the dance floor riffs, and I can continue if ya’ll wish. Da Bears have been sweet enough to allow FMLY to post their new record Classics Never Die / Cowardly Cobra for download in its entirety. If you like what you hear, buy the album for $8 here or at our house party next Friday! Big ups to Daniel Atkinson for allowing us the use of his home, respect the house party.

Da Bears – Classics Never Die / Cowardly Cobra

Also playing Respect The House Party are our good friends Head Hunters, Blackwater (Djavan of Head Hunters), DJDT, and FMLY DJs Your Majesty & Rip. We’ll have more names to announce soon. Entry is $2, PBRz are $2 and we’ll have plenty of other goodies for the party. RSVP here.

Da Bears – Lindsey Lohan
Da Bears – Sword In Hand

DJDT – A Milli (DJDT RMX)
