The Pagoda’s monthly D1ME series of DJ events gets two top-shelf guests this week when producer Full Crate and singer Mar from the Amsterdam beat scene drop in on Friday.
Full Crate & Mar’s first collaboration, 2009’s “She Was Fly” was disarmingly simple and elegant. At its core little more than Mar repeating the title over Full Crate’s warm synth tones and organic beats, the single nonetheless caught the attention of important ears both on the Euro scene and Stateside. Since the subsequent release of their EP, Conversations With Her, the high-school-friends-turned-electronic-duo have toured sold-out shows from Brussels to Berlin to London to New York.
Their sound has evolved into something more complex, but no less soulful and ambient. Having released their own solo EPs, the pair are back in the studio together, preparing their first full-length, which is set to drop later this year.
D1ME featuring resident DJs The C.M.E., Sig-O, Smoovgroovs and G-Wrex, along with special guests Full Crate & Mar, will be held at Pagoda Lounge in San Jose on Friday, July 6 at 9pm; $10.
