Entertainment Update for April 24

Listener’s Lounge goes retro with 45 rpm mixes

If late night listening to modern hip-hop beats on old-school records is your way to chill, you may want to check out the monthly Listener’s Lounge at the Elks Club in Hood River.

Last week, DJ-Mexi brought out the 45 rpm discs to mix hip-hop, soul and dance tracks. “A lot of stuff is actually being re-issued onto this format, and they are easier to handle and store,” Mexi said.

Also on the bill was LA/Portland artist Lana Shea, who performed acoustic guitar versions of her tracks from her debut album “Duality.” Visit listenersloungeHR on Facebook for more information.
