We've reported on past Hot Peas & Butta events because they're excellent. Combining classic soul 45s with vintage footage of wonky cartoon shows and forgotten b-flicks is a brilliant idea. Somewhere there are DJs still suffering from anxiety insomnia because they didn't think of it first. They're too afraid to go to sleep because in their dreams they see grainy footage of Godzilla slowly stomping on their hopes and aspirations in time to William Bell's "I Forgot to Be Your Lover."
This Saturday at Le Poisson Rouge, Hot Peas & Butta turns 3. To celebrate, they're busting out 3D glasses for screenings of classic and rare footage in "SUPER 3D" and "Quadraphonic Sound." Skeme Richards, Amir, Monk One, and Chairman Mao will be spinning. You've never been to a party quite like this.
The first 100 guests get free 3D glasses and a free goods pack.
