Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus is the bossest DJ!!

Phast Phreddie the Boogaloo Omnibus is a club disc jockey who specializes in Modernist Vintage Astro Sounds: Soul Musc (he was resident DJ for Subway Soul Club), Go-Go, garage and mod (he has guested at Smashed! Blocked! and The New Untouchables), lounge, exotica (he has guested at Tiki Oasis and The Hukilau), surf, twist, R&B, organ grooves, ska, Doo Wop, jerk, rockabilly and other assorted madness.

In a previous existence, Phast Phreddie was the editor and founder of BACK DOOR MAN magazine, an early example of Rock’n’Roll fanzines, that existed from 1975 to 1978.  During the late seventies, Phast was on the Hollywood punk rock scene and wrote for Slash Magazine, briefly managed The Zeros and was resident DJ at several popular nightclubs, including Madame Wong’s West, the Starwood and the Cathay de Grande.

During the eighties, he led his own band, Phast Phreddie & Thee Precisions, held a DJ residency at the Club Lingerie in Hollywood, worked for the Rhino Record Store and was tour manager for Peter Case and Redd Kross.  He also led a poetry-with-a-beat group called Phast ‘n’ Bulbous and was a member of the psychedelic rock and soul group The Love Supremes.

Since moving to Brooklyn in 1992, Phast has been a writer, a music publisher, an archivist (he works at The ARChive of Contemporary Music) and has renewed his club DJ activities with a passion–specializing in music from the Sixties.

In 2020, Phast moved to the Hudson Valley where he was soon on the Reet Music scene, spinning records as a guest at Quinns in Beacon, Mama Roux and The Jet Set in Newburg and now hosts his own Funky Kingston at the Salt Box in Kingston, NY on the fifth Saturday of the month, when there is one.

Recently, he has been reciting his psychedelic poetry with the instrumental organ groove group Freeks Garage in venues around the Woodstock/Kingston area.

ALSO! Phast Phreddie hosts The GO Mechanism, an audio odyssey radio-like program that is initially broadcast on Luxuria Music as a Saturday Night Special. It happens whenever he gets around to it. Dig legacy programs on the Mixclouds (put “Go Mechanism” in the search engine).

The Boogaloo Bag is here to promote Phast Phreddie’s DJ activities and to discuss several other concerns he may have–mostly dealing with all sorts of reet music and swingin’ records.
