SF Weekly Mochipet on Wearing His Big Purple Dinosaur Suit, and Playing LovEvolution This Saturday

While many DJs can say they’ve performed alongside dance music icons such as Rusko, Bassnectar, and Mary Anne Hobbs, few can honestly claim that they’ve worn a purple furry dinosaur suit the entire time. Bay Area native Mochipet , who began his career with his well-known album, Girls Love Breakcore, has demonstrated his passion for music through residences in L.A., his founding of Daly City Records, and his collaboration with a 20-piece orchestra that performed his composition “Dessert Search for Techno Baklava” at Carnegie Hall, among other notable venues. He chatted with All Shook Down about breakcore, his favorite mochi flavor, and playing LovEvolution this Saturday.

However, due to a wealth of travel industry failures, David arrived late to Minneapolis with just enough time to throw down his raucous set.

I discovered Mochipet when several friends starting posting links to his music. He takes on bass music and twists into his on glitchy, wobble, RAWR type beats.

He is known as the man who performs in a cute dino costume. He has played shows all over the world and his music is widely known in the bass music community. He often gives out free tunes to his Pet Nation! Keep your eyes and ears peeled on this little dino for he will be sure to make you want to rock out.
