Zizek North American Tour!
Zizek, the most happening party and record label in Buenos Aires, crosses the equator to share their blend of South American, Caribbean and all things electronic to the North American masses–including the audience at Coachella. Representing the ZZK crew, Fauna, Douster and El G will be promoting their newest album, ZZK Sound Vol. 2–recently signed on Nacional Records.
Villa Diamante and El G
On a slightly unrelated note: I had the chance to link up with El G aka Grant C. Dull, one of the men behind Zizek, in Buenos Aires. Aside from playing host and resident to Zizek Urban Beats Club and working as label manager of ZZK records he also runs What’s Up Buenos Aires, a venerable to-do list for anyone who likes staying ahead of the cultural curve.
Pizza at El Cuartito
The US-born expat was happy to play ambassador and introduced me to El Cuartito, home to some of the tastiest pizza I’ve ever had, and offered to take me to a Cumbia party in the slums of Buenos Aires (as he did with Diplo a while back)–provided I could stick around for his return from a vacation in the wine country. Unfortunately, I had to be back in NYC by then. Bad timing, but you can’t blame a man who enjoys the finer things just as much as the grittier things.
