The next Droppin’ Science party is on February 5 at the Vibe Bar with yet another big night in store.

Last month resident DJs Matman, Nickname and Daredevil ripped the place apart, blazing through fast-paced sets of hip hop & it’s related genres. In February you can expect all this and more as we will be joined by our very special guest, Paul White (One-Handed Music / Now-Again).

After releasing the acclaimed LPs ‘The Strange Dreams of Paul White’ & ‘Sounds From The Skylight beat tape’ in 2009, 2010′s ‘Paul White & The Purple Brain’ was co-released by both One-Handed and Los Angeles-based Now Again, sister label of the mighty Stones Throw Records.
