Description
Welcome to the Massive Selector Network. Feel free to post post your favorite photos, videos, or blogs from Massive Selector events and beyond here.

MASSIVE SELECTOR is a San Francisco based collective of artists, djs, free thinkers, and corporate refugees who share a passion for art and music culture. Through our event production, media projects, and design we motivate, build and cultivate a left coast community. We are selectors for the masses.

MASSIVE SELECTOR produces events, live shows, and benefits, as well as provide strategic marketing and promotion services online and on the street. The versatility of the company allows it to do web development, marketing programs, graphic design, and talent sourcing (DJs and acts) internally for all projects, services which are also offered to external clients. Recent projects include production of the California leg of an album release tour for King Britt (K7 Records), Wonder-Full: A Tribute to the Wonder of Stevie with DJ Spinna & Bobbito, a concert show featuring BBC Worlwide Live with Gilles Peterson, Dwele, and The Rebirth, Soled Out: A Commemoration to Sneaker Culture, Sneakerpimps: The Worlds Largest Sneaker Tour, SF Intl Asian Am Film Festival's Directions in Sound, J-Dilla Tribute featuring Stones Throw All-Stars Peanut Butter Wolf, Egon + Madlib, DJ Spinna vs. ?uestlove, among other great events.

Our projects: some for fun, some for profit... all for the love. The most visible are the events... but the MS crew is involved in a lot of different things... art, music, fashion, web design, architecture, engineering and even entrepreneurship. Over the years we've made our mark in the nitelife arena, but this year we ventured off into new frontiers. Our latest endeavor is POLENG LOUNGE, a tea lounge, restaurant, and bar located in the heart of San Francisco's upper panhandle or NOPA district. In just 7 short months POLENG LOUNGE has become the face of modern filipino cusine and is now officaily one of the top 10 restaraunts in the Bay according to the chronicle.

Hit us up if you want to party, create, motivate, organize, or build... whats life without a hustle?

WONDER-Full™
Back in 1999, DJ Spinna and Bobbito were asked to spin at a party which paid tribute to the great Stevie Wonder. The duo quickly realized they had a mutual love for Little Stevie's music and, judging from the atmosphere on the dance floor that night, they knew they had a good thing going. A classic East Coast party was born. Wonder-full falls on the weekend of Stevie's May 13 birthday and features handpicked rare and funky covers from Spinna's and Bobbito's vaults. Today, KeiStar Productions spearheads sole production of the now incontestable and world renown WONDER-Full event. And lucky for us, the time has arrived once again for our West Coast ears to hear some songs in the key of life. enjoy this great VIDEO" href="http://www.massiveselector.imeem.com/" src="http://img.vaindeer.com/l/jd7PQI2l.jpg" width="250>
