[5/15] Preview: Peligrosa ft. Murlo at Empire Control Room & Garage

May 13, 2015 By Ian Morales

Peligrosa FBFriday, May 15, marks the third Friday of the month and that means it is time for Austin-based Latin DJ collective Peligrosa to take over Empire Control Room & Garage. Austin’s longest running Latin dance party will welcome special guest Murlo to the party as the London-based producer is currently on his first North American tour. While the DJs own the patio, live music will be provided on the Control Room stage inside by Austin-based performers Leticia Rodriguez and Huerta Culture. Puro party y’all.

Although not Latino, Murlo will be an easy fit with the Latin sounds of Peligrosa. His mixes are heavily Caribbean-influenced, remixing grime, dancehall, R&B and more on UK dance floors. His latest release, Jasmine EP, was released in February via Mixpak. The EP features his first, full original vocal release, Irish vocalist Gemma Dunleavy. Be ready to dance to a little Jasmine material as well as some electronic riddims.

Peligrosa crew members who will be in the house Friday include Orion, Manolo Black, DJ Manny, El Dusty and Chorizo Funk. Peligrosa photographer Quito will be taking photos.

Empire Control Room & Garage is located at 606 E. 7th Street. Doors open at 10 p.m. 21+ welcome. $5 Pre-sale Ticket (GA) available here / $8 Day Of Show. Visit the Facebook event page here. In the event of rain, the full show will be moved inside to the Control Room stage.

[9/19] Preview: Peligrosa w/Dave Nada, Dre Skull, Jubilee at Empire Control Room & Garage

September 18, 2014 By Austin Vida Staff

Peligrosa posterThis week at Empire Control Room & Garage the big WEEKENDER event is happening. It is a unique 4-day party combining a massive festival style lineup accompanied by killer indie rock bands and Austin’s biggest Latin DJ crew, Peligrosa. The boys from Peligrosa will be hosting their monthly event on the Empire Patio during WEEKENDER on Friday, Sept. 19. They will be joined by special guests Dave Nada, Jubilee and Dre Skull.

D.C. -based DJ and producer Dave Nada (born David Villegas) is one half of popular EDM duo NADASTROM. Nada is credited with being the founder of EDM genre Moombahton, which combines Dutch house music with reggaeton. The genre is now a worldwide movement in EDM thanks to relentless touring and events like Moombahton Massive.

Jubilee is referred to as “Brooklyn’s bass sweetheart who moves between upfront bass music, sweaty tropical jams, party rap, UK grime, house, techno, R&B, dancehall, and more.” She released her critically acclaimed Pull Ova EP via Mixpak earlier this year, and recently dropped her JMZ Riddim EP, also through Mixpak.

Dre Skull is the music moniker of Brooklyn-based Andrew Hershey. The Mixpak Records artist and boss may look like every other bearded gringo hipster, but he is one of dancehall’s most sought-after producers. This year he executed and produced an entire album with dancehall superstar Vybz Kartel and was was tapped by Major Lazer to help produce the upcoming Snoop Dogg album.

Empire Control Room & Garage is located at 606 E. 7th Street. Doors open at 9 p.m. 18+ are welcome. Advance tickets for this event are available for purchase online here. Visit the Facebook event page here.
