Whatever became of summer? I only have a vague recollection of it even having passed through this year. All of a sudden its Halloween and the year moves into hyper speed. 2007 gets smaller and smaller, and the weather gets colder and everyone tucks into their warm blankets in front of the radiator and wants to spend as little time outside as possible. Which is understandable. I’m sure we’ll do our fair share of bundling. But not without offering you some goodies to keep you warm.

First of all, if you are in DC, you should know by now that Marquis, Echelon’s Monthly DJ party is still happening every last Thursday at Napoleon, in Adams Morgan. And the next couple of weeks are extra special. Marquis will happen as scheduled, and with some great guest DJs. But in addition, Marquis DJs Michah Vellian and Outputmessage are going to be doing a couple of special appearances as well. Check out the schedule below.

We have a new record coming out pretty soon, and more details will soon follow. But in the meantime, check out some samples on MySpace. Christopher Andrew Stelloh has put together a great album with some phenomenal musicians from Chicago, and we are really excited about it. It means a lot to have the opportunity to work with these musicians.

Ok, thats it for now, but really, just for now. There is much good news around the corner and please bear with us.
