Houston, TX (07/21/09) — This July is the final month that Speakerboxx runs its course at The Backroom (3718 Main behind The Mink). Thursdays belong to the Speakerboxx heavyhitters two more weeks with hosting DJs Squincy Jones and Dayta on deck plus El Roy Boogie and Reko Trill on the mic. The last Thursday night, July 30, is host to the not-to-be-missed Sneaker Summit Pre-Party.

For a year and some change, the weekly hot spot, which was a spin-off of the wildly popular Rock Box at The Proletariat, has been hosted by resident DJs Squincy Jones (Awwready.edu) and Dayta (NanaChill.com). This duo continues to meld music genres, bring in national touring DJs and, most importantly, bring up local talent.

You can catch the Speakerboxx gang over at Block 21 (2420 Washington) on Fridays, where they regularly spin more “party rocking jams”. Their official Rotate Fridays kick off at Block 21 on July 31st.

So for now, don’t sleep on the LAST TWO Speakerboxx Thursdays in Houston:

Speakerboxx, March '09

While Squincy is on an evangelical tour of the bible belt with his Nintendub beats, El Jeffe and I are gonna do it real grande at Speakerboxx this Thursday.

The Don Santos and Dayta will also be on hand for the take-over!

It’s gonna go as hard as Benga!

Look Who's 1

I can’t believe it’s already been a year.

The culmination of Rock Box at The Proletariat on a cold January night last year gave birth to this DJ night spin-off (pardon the pun) thanks to Squincy Jones, Dayta and Reko Trill. They took a gamble that the loyal hipsters, hopsters and rocksters would follow. And you know, these days it’s tough to get a solid crowd out every week. But their hard work keeps paying off. I’m happy to say that as far as the Speakerboxx nights, the apple didn’t fall far from the tree.

Here’s to you boys, my Rock Box fam, for keepin’ it goin. And to those that have supported all year, come on out and give ‘em a spanking plus one to grow on this Thursday cuz you know they’re gonna keep it poppin’ for years to come!

Neon Nites DJ G.Wizz (aka my hub-bub) plays at Speakerboxx tonight. Come on out if you’re done with semester finals or have tomorrow off! You’ll see this Neon Knight jockin’ and rockin’ the decks.

Also, the Speakerboxx MK Ultra live mix is back up, this time on zShare. If you missed Squincy & Dayta’s two-hour long radio debut, here it is for download:
