The DIRTYBIRD BBQs have become something I look forward to almost more than anything else we do at the label.  The special daytime sets allow for more risk taking and more bass music to sneak into the house music that usually gets played at night. I’m really looking forward to Grill$on cooking me a burger this summer and rocking out with the fans.  Check out these great tracks that range all the way from really funny to serious ass shakers.

In 2015 DIRTYBIRD will be taking the BBQ experience to new cities like Seattle, Portland, Chicago and Denver, returning to familiar haunts like NYC and SF before concluding with the highly anticipated DIRTYBIRD Campout. Keep your eyes peeled for additional lineup and venue announcements, tickets are on sale now!  WWW.DIRTYBIRDRECORDS.COM/DIRTYBIRDBBQ

Fresh along his Shots To The Dome tour with Destructo, rising US artist Gerry Gonza takes a pause to deliver us an absolutely swagalicious EP. Already making waves in Gerry's sets and one of label boss Worthy's most trainspotted tunes of late, this double A side EP along with Dillon Nathaniel is prime underground beats.

Recently our demo inbox has been overflowing so we cleared it out, selected the best of the best and created a new compilation series called Traffic Jams. Anyone who's visited our home city of Los Angeles understands the struggle. We could let it get the best of us, or rather, choose to celebrate by cranking up the system. Even in a complete standstill on the 101! 

The series name itself is a fun one that was crowd-sourced on Matthew Anthony's social pages. With some great runners-up like Road Rage, Cruise Control, Riders On The Storm and D.U.I. (Dancing Under the Influence), ultimately the winning title in most peoples eyes was Traffic Jams, coming from our guy Travis Emmons, an artist we previously released a few years back, and again today on PDM099. 

The compilation offers an array of Tech House tracks. There's a few new artists to Perfect Driver including Skinnybit, More Than Friends with OMNOM, Mancodex, Dking, DJ Susan, AYAREZ as well as some favs like A Fox, Travis Emmons, Holt 88 and Matthew Anthony.

We're all proud to be delivering these songs to the dance floor and can't wait to hear what you think. As usual, give us a shout on twitter if you're feeling the release and see you on the road.

No stranger to the Box of Cats family, this month we have Chick Iverson returning to home plate. This time bringing his all star batter Subset for a 3am friendly, two track EP set to make some noise as the ball hits a home run.

This is not a game of baseball, and to be honest I have never been to a baseball game, but the pure energy of 'Give Until it Hurts' is what I imagine dancing to when my home team wins. The flip 'Outta Here' is a return to what Chick knows best: a tech-y groove, sexy percussion and indescribable sound design.

When two legends from a legendary city like Seattle team up, we expect no less than what they delivered and we are very pleased to bring you their latest offering. 

Thank you Chick Iverson & Subset for bringing this fire to us!

Chick Iverson & Subset - Give Until It Hurts (BOC067)

We pride ourselves on listening to every demo we are sent which means no dope track will slip between the cracks. This is a big process but is extremely rewarding. Litterbox has always been a great way to showcase the vast array of demos we are sent. Its a way to bring like minded producers, listeners and dj's together and showcase all styles of house music in one tidy package. This release is almost entirely fresh faces which goes to show how many artists are doing it right!

We suggest closing your eyes, grabbing a frothy one and pressing play on what is definitely our biggest and most unique compilation to date.

Bor & Mar - Laid Back (BOC069)

Natural ability, experience, drive, and love for pushing the boundaries is detrimental to a career in music. Longevity is created by combining these things in your own personal ways. 

Sebi aka Maximono, for instance, has been smashing out music, record labels, and Dj sets for over 20 years. Combing multiple genres into his ethos of Good Vibes House music, he has found the secret sauce to his creativity and career.

The lead record In The Edit is a driving, disco-infused house weapon. Good luck finding where he sampled it from ;). The flip, Lights Go Down takes a step back with its chunky drums and M1 piano groove. Both highlighting what we love about Maximono and his ability to make music for any occasion.

We hope you enjoy his music as much as we do and expect to see him sticking around for another 20 + years!

MAXIMONO - Lights Go Down

You know Dirtybird for dropping basslines and creating smiles on the dance floor since January 2005.

The fun family vibe of the Dirtybird label can be traced back to a free event started in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. This new kind of house music went against the smooth vocal house that was popular at the time and derived its influences mostly from hip-hop, drum n bass, and American funk. The free outdoor BBQ party was very rough around the edges but eventually became legendary amongst the people of San Francisco. This event was also a very influential factor in the decision by Claude VonStroke to start the record label in 2005.

Today, Dirtybird has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles and has expanded into events and tour production. As it grows, the brand continues to expand beyond music into merchandise, licensing and artist management. In 2015, Dirtybird launched the inaugural Dirtybird Campout festival, which has been dubbed “Summer Camp For Adults”, and Dirtybird has been recognized from their achievements by being awarded "Underground Label of the Year" at the International Dance Music Awards, “Label of the Decade” by Mixmag, “Best North American Label” by DJ Mag, and Billboard’s "Top 5 Independent Dance Labels".
