Coachella is always our favorite weekend of the year, but 2009 stepped it up several notches with our first IndiOasis party going off listening distance from the legendary polo fields. Where to begin. When not rocking out to DJs like Adam Freeland, Jus Ske, Jokers of the Scene and Skeet Skeet and quenching our bottomless thirst with beverages provided by Vitamin Water, Tito’s Vodka, Asahi Beer, Colt 45, Cafe Bustelo and Alize, we were getting fitted by Onitsuka Tiger, conducting interviews with iMeem and scoring phones from Pantech. Not to mention free ice cream from Coconut Bliss, organic food from The Green Truck, massages from the Sustainable Living Carnival and haircuts from The Kutting Room.

DJ Mike B, Snowcone, Dam Funk and Sally Shapiro

Treasure Fingers had a lot to be thankful for in ‘08, with the icing on the cake being his recent signing to A-Trak’s Fool’s Gold label:
‘I had quite a few mutual friends but what actually brought it all together was A-Trak sending me a MySpace message saying something like ‘hey! I like your music and run a label, are you interested (in) releasing some records with us?’. Since then, I’ ve become good friends with A-Trak, Nick Catchdubs and the rest of the Fool’ s Gold family; they’ re all really good people.’
Fingers also explains, in his interview with Killahbeez.com, how he got the weird name, what eras and genres of music influence him most, what gear he uses to sculpt his beats, and what upcoming projects we can expect from him now that …
