Listening Lounge: LADIES FIRST
the Listening Lounge is back for the OH-TEN. going almost three years strong every third friday. thanks to you!
For the first Listening Lounge of the year we’ve got something really special. something we’ve never done before in these last three years. first and foremost, ultimately, Listening Lounge is about good music. period. and for the first Listening Lounge of the year we thought we’d give it to our homies to showcase the immense amount of musical talent the Bay has to offer on the X-chromosome side of thangs. so to jump start 2010, we’re inviting you to “LADIES FIRST”
——————————————————
in the stage room..
RRS FEED
shred one | roza | raichous
trust us, you aint never seen anything like RRS. on stage with a 3 x 4 setup (thats 3 mixers and 4 turntables yall!! holla!!) they combine classic turntablist techniques with funk, uptempo, disco, boogie, and hiphop (of course) to create a completely new and unique style. trust when we say: you. can. not. miss. this.
CELSKIII & DEEANDROID
the deuce | skratchpad
these two have been innovating their way through the Bay’s Hip-Hop scene for quite sometime. its almost like’ “finally!” when we got the opportunity to get them on Listening Lounge. the first ever female DJ team to compete in the DMC in its entire 20 year lifespan. they have done much to keep the wheels of the Bay’s turntablist heritage moving and growing including their party Skratchpad which was an “open mic” for DJs to flex their chops and just build with each other. they created a true hub for the community. plus: they will be performing their 2 x 4 set at Listening Lounge.
