Scandal DC
Scandal DC is a crew of house music DJ's in Washington, DC. The crew was started in 2003 by Mike "FugAmI" Silverman at Lounge 201 on Capitol Hill and was named for their first party - The Scandal on Capitol Hill - which was a Wednesday night deep house event. Scandal Wednesday's ran for about a year. As the crew grew, so did the impact of their sound - a combination of classic Chicago style house, funky house, trip-hop, classic funk, BMore club, and just a drop of vocal electro for edge.
Scandal DC also manages Foundation, a classic deep house party in DC that's brought in such prominent talent as Fred Everything, Colette, Marques Wyatt, Chuck Love, Joey Youngman, and others.
