The Blapmaster Hisself

Check this podcast for an in-depth conversation with Rusko, touching on subjects from his upcoming OMG album (due on Mad Decent in early May), to the origins of dubstep, to how he got started in music, to his favorite things about America, to his top songs of 2009 and more! (Propers to the one like Maddecent.com)

Click hurr.

Matt Haze, Manitous, and Freddie Future hit the decks kamikaze-style. In the frenzy of tight curves and mixing beats, butt presses and “excuse me”s became “wutever it’s a party!!”

With over 35 of us, we were a multi-dimensional balancing act with drinks and bass, surfing and flying through the San Francisco night. Rest stops in Treasure Island and the eastern waterfront, reminiscent of illegal urban outlaws as I watched angels give life to abandoned industrial playgrounds. Somewhere between lap dance orgies and the search for a modest enough place to pee, a sense of tranquility bestowed upon me.. and I wished it upon everyone I knew who couldn’t be there.

You missed out. =P

Damon Soule

It turns out that not only is two-time DMC champ DJ Qbert the archetypal turntablist of this galaxy (and beyond?) but he is also a scholar and a cultured, compassionate gentleman. Somehow, between starting his own online DJ academy and playing benefit shows in the Philippines, he has found the time to launch a new gallery space at home here in the Bay Area:

“Our private gallery is based on a devotion to urban street art, sculpture and model figurines while showcasing DJ collectibles, custom equipment and rare vinyl records. The [invitation only] opening reception for our new space will present works from artist Mars-1, Damon Soule, Jesse Hernandez, Downtimer and Jay 222 on Friday, January 29th, 2010.”

More info at the official Thud Rumble Gallery website and stay tuned – you’ll be hearing more about Qbert and the Slayers Club very soon…

Come and join us this year for our 2nd annual FNC/SC Summer kickoff.. Contact us if your interested! Date is set for May 28, ‘10
