We invite you back for another night at our new monthly event, ASCENSION @ Asiento.

We'd like to again thank our recent guest: Rick Preston for joining us and bringing with him the good beats as usual. Always good times! March 8th, we are pleased to welcome Guest DJ/Producer/Remixer:

DJ RASOUL (Large, SWAT, Soulfood, Crisp Recordings)RASOUL has played a huge part in making the San Francisco scene what it is. With productions being put out since 1993, "Quality" is what comes to mind each time his music is heard.

With the release of his Soul Searching Volume series, he's become a name that people recognize as a top House music contributor. Volume 1 is widely considered the first original "Deep House" release as nothing sounded quite like this at the time of release (1997). This record also defined the sound of Large Music for years to come.



Hope to see you and we look forward to sharing this night with you!

With a predilection for the deepest and funkiest of deep funky house, DJ Rasoul (real name Guy Nado) has done much to put the Bay Area on the map as a hip and happening place. Originally from the Ivory Coast in West Africa, he moved to the States as a young boy in 1975. Rasoul dabbled in all sorts of music as a teenager but became serious about house after hooking up with San Francisco's pioneering 3rd Floor Productions team in 1990. Amongst others, the group included such noteworthy characters as DJs Digit -- who went on to set up the famous BPM Records label -- and EFX. Throughout the early '90s, Rasoul released his own records and remixed for others under a variety of monikers including the Mad African and Dredman. Then, following a brief stint in London working mostly as a DJ, he returned home in 1996 to again concentrate on production work. Over the next few years, Rasoul did no harm to his reputation by working with some of America's most respected underground dance labels -- Large, 83 West, and Guidance. During this period, his Soul Searching series of albums released on Large proved especially popular.
