In a thread in Beyond Tiki Humuhum wrote "I know I sound like a broken record, but if you're sitting at home on Tuesday nights in Seattle, you're a fool." If things go well soon one won't have to go as far north as Ballard to hear Lopaka's skills... A couple weeks back friends and I were at the Islander and we were really enjoying the mix of music they were playing. The Islander generally plays classic Hawaiian music, one of the aspects that makes it such a pleasant place to hang out, but this was a mix of Hawaiian, classic lounge, and some electronica. We commented to Tracy the manager that we really liked the music and he told us it was a disc this guy who wanted to DJ at the Islander had brought in. "Does he go by Selector Lopaka?" I asked. Tracy said that was the guy. We all gave approval to the notion of Lopaka spinning there and Tracy, who really liked Lopaka's mix, said he was hoping to get Lapoka in there on one of their busy nights. I was in the Islander last Wednesday night and they were again playing Lopaka's disc. |
