DJ Swamp's "4-Track Cassette"

Celebrity guest DJ Swamp visits OPM Lounge on Friday (May 25) to play the Luau Party (Clam Bake & Martini Bar on the Patio!). Former touring musician and DJ for Beck during the Midnight Vultures years, Swamp blends a Black Metal asthetic with a veteran turntablist’s rhyme, rhythm and flow. His on-stage demeanor reflects this duality too, as Swamp may be prone to violent fits, smashing vinyl and even cutting himself with the record shards. Sometimes he used to spit fire, but the rules have since tightened and the pyrotechnics are a thing of the past. What you will get at a Swamp show is expert hip hop turntablism drawn from a wealth of raw material and influences from dance/electronica to punk to industrial and in between. Support comes from DJ D-Star & Chae Hawk, Basha and Devious
