…Like No One Is Watching.

Unseen films.
The night will begin (7:30 - 9:30) with a celebration of the work of B+ particularly some of the less seen or unseen film works. B+ will be in conversation with Sam LeMontayne, Mychal Odum and Harmony Holiday. Rare, unreleased and even some works in progress will be shown followed by a Q&A.

Unheard Music.
Following the discussion the screen will be pulled up and some of the greatest DJs alive (also all collaborators with Mochilla) will bring their curation to the stage with an emphasis on music rarely heard. Headlining and back in Los Angeles for the first time in more than ten years is São Paulo’s very own DJ Nuts. A rare combination of insane research and grade A turntable skills.
Waajeed or Jeedo to his friends is the founder of the Underground Music Academy in Detroit and a veteran of its deep musical legacy. Close friend of Dilla, member of the Platinum Pied Pipers and owner of DirtWreck records. World class dj and producer!
Cut Chemist needs no introduction in Los Angeles. Member of Jurassic5, legendary producer and digger and someone with a craving for the unexpected. No doubt he will have some surprises for us…
Francesca Harding is a wonderful dj, host and radio personality on KCRW. She is a long time dj in LA known for her international tastes driven no doubt by her Panamanian roots!
Carol Ueno is one of São Paulo’s most sought after djs. She plays regularly in the bustling and competitive SP nightlife. She has a soft spot for all things Japanese and her knowledge of Brazilian music of the 80s is tough!
We have one more special guest but we can’t announce them due to a performance embargo!

There is a second room with more guest selectors to be announced!
There will be Hit + Run custom screen services. Limited Mochilla merch.

All for the late 90s price of 20$!

the photoshoot for "Endtroducing..." by DJ Shadow shot by @bpleasel -DJ Shadow's debut album is a landmark album in the world of sampling and plunderphonics, composed almost entirely by samples with an AKAI MPC60 II over a period of two years. The cover, featuring Shadow's friends Chief Xcel and Lyrics Born shopping for records in Sacramento, has become iconic in the world of instrumental Hip-Hop.

B+ stated: “We measured the focus really quickly because of the cat and we measured in feet when it’s set for metres. That’s why the foreground is out of focus. It was honestly a total mistake”

James Gadson is one of the greatest drummers of all time. Check the resume. He also sang well and produced some incredible records.His father played with Big Jay McNeely, he studied his instrument carefully and brought a physicality to his playing that’s really never been matched… from Charles Wright to Bill Withers from Herbie Hancock to DAngelo, from Paul McCartney to Beck, even John Lee Hooker…James brought that heavy kick and snare in ways that others couldn’t even imagine. He is the last of the Keepintime original drummers to pass. He brought a genuine curiosity to his seat and while he didn’t have the showmanship of Paul Humphrey his authority on the kit was something to behold. James and Paul’s generosity towards us and the DJs was basically what let Keepintime happen… he always thanked me but it was really our way of thanking them! To see his face at VaiVai in São Paulo during rehearsal in Brasilintime chatting to the Bahianas and feeling the power of the drums is truly one of my favorite moments… thank you James we will miss you! ☘️💚☘️

“hollyweird” is out now 🔥 gooo listen! 👂🏾
(video & song link in bio)

Thank you, @everything_political

i wrote “hollyweird,” on scraps of found paper, frantically jotting down observations and sentiments of the Los Angeles fires in 2025 and its aftermath. The song is an Afropunkesque ode to frustrations around our current culture of social isolation and performative solidarity. I wanted to speak to the emptiness of “hollyweird” not as a place but as a way of being where insincerity is normalized. Where social interactions become void of authenticity and we lose sight of community and connection. Thank you to the collective who all contributed to this track and video. Each of you inspire me.

In memory of Mtulazaji P.E.A.C.E Davis @mtulazajidavis of Freestyle Fellowship.

Join us for a night of feasting and dancing at Zizou!

Gulosa (pronounced Goo- low- zah) is a portuguese word for someone who delights in pleasure! That is what this night is all about! Pleasing your senses! Zizou is a magic spot under the stars in Lincoln Heights with a mouth watering French Moroccan menu. The space is designed as a Moroccan garden patio with a heavy sound system under a covered dance floor. We will be spinning vinyl from dinner to dance from all the tropical places with Brazilian, Latin and African wax.

Your ears are in for a treat. Brian Cross, AKA B+ @bpleasel , has amazing crates, rare bangers and gems from across the globe. He is known for his legendary photography of hip hop icons from the 90’s as well as making a brilliant documentary called Brasilintime about the connections between Brazilian music and hip hop. Imagine the records he will play for us!

I am Tastebud, and I am hosting the night! I will bring all my tastiest vinyl to keep your pleasures high! This is one not to be missed! Make a reservation for dinner or come anytime for drinks and dancing!

Feast! Drink! Dance! Stay late! Indulge your senses! Be Gulosa!
