NewYorkNightTrain!!!!

All music jars when the soul's out of tune.

About Me

NEW YORK NIGHT TRAIN :

1) the party machine of the dynamic DJ MR JONATHAN TOUBIN who can be found WEDNESDAYS at MOTOR CITY BAR (punk eclecticism w/special guests), THURSDAYS at BEAUTY BAR (soul galore), FRIDAYS at HOME SWEET HOME (maximum rock'n'soul), and SATURDAYS all over the place - but mostly at GLASSLANDS - plus other events at cake shop, daddy's, enid's, union pool, lit, and dozens of other nyc establishments of healthy repute plus road gigs from coast to coast.

2) the record label of kid congo powers, kid congo and the pink monkey birds, grand mal, viva l'american death ray music, and s-s-s-spectres. plus upcoming releases by witch hats, mc trachiotomy featuring quintron, kid congo with thalia zedek, and more...

3) the former NYC music webzine ( check out the archives ) and soon to be vinyl guide.

don't fight it - feel it!
