Not actually Brazilian—but very possibly the sexiest band alive—BRAZILIAN GIRLS shimmy into town on a “dizzy mix of bossa nova, jazz, rock, and electro beats” (Entertainment Weekly) to fête the Latin Alternative Music Conference. Local peruvian surf rock band CHICHA LIBRE will keep the party going and Brooklyn's own own TICKLAH, who “channels his energy into deep dub territory” with “thick reggae beats and rhythms enhanced with electronic elements. (Glide Magazine). DJ PAPICHULO Spins between sets. Fresa Salvaje after-party at Studio B.

THEME: SONGS ABOUT FOOD/EATING. SOUND FIX LOUNGE invites you to join us to trade and socialize with other music enthusiasts. Everyone is encouraged to make a mix tape/CD to exchange based on our current theme, and trade with other participants. The exchange is random, which means you'll receive a mix from a stranger. Feel free to bring extra copies of your tape or CD to trade as the night carries on. We have drink specials and prize give aways all night... and if you bring a tape you get a free well drink. Get into it!
