RIPEcast by Space Cowboys

This week on the RIPEcast Space Cowboy resident rrrrus in March live at the Rhythm Society quarterly.

From the man himself “Back in 1998 rrrus nervously took the decks for the first time ever in front of a crowd in a small church in SF's mission district for one of the first Rhythm Society events. 26 years, a bunch of ANDCs, Burning Mans, Breakfasts of Champions, campouts, and a few naps later rrrus is back to give his home spiritual community a groovy bumping hug. Let's get busy.”

Daybreakers at Oracle Park was an absolutely blast! I didn't record the set live, but here's most of what I played and some of what I didn't from a warm up set I captured before the party. Enjoy! - 8b

This week on the RIPEcast Space Cowboys are happy to have Defkon of Breaks and Bangers out of New York. His set was recorded live from Birds of a Feather.

In his own words "Based in Brooklyn, Defkon has hit the ground running to bring high-energy dance music back to New York. He takes pride in representing his love for West Coast house and booty breaks, delivering that sound to the northeast. He is known for dropping guaranteed nasty & dirty beats to keep the dance floor on fire. Defkon operates with an abundance attitude mindset through his event Breaks & Bangers, where he brings DJ's together to collaborate and create bumpin’ booty-shaking experiences for friends old and new." -Defkon

On this week's RIPEcast our close friend and PInk Mammoth resident DJ Jonathan Will with a live set poolside from Birds of a Feather 2024.

From Jonathan, "This mix comes from closing out the pool party at the famed Birds of A Feather event on Saturday.

There was so many things I liked about this party, different crews that don’t always get to play or be together because they do separate events, friends I hadn’t seen in years, bird puns (upon puns) for days, and great peeps.

Special thanks to all the organizers that put it on and was honored to be amongst a killer set of djs with eclectic sounds. It was one for the bird books. Hope you enjoy."

Love is in the air! On this episode of the Space Cowboys RIPEcast, we're bringing you Leyl Master Black's disco house set from her Wedding Disco After Party at Natoma Cabana. Here's what she had to say about it:

"What a privilege to get to celebrate my wedding weekend with so many of my favorite people (and Space Cowboys DJs!) Of course I had to spin a set at my own party… I kicked off the night with an hour of house and disco, then hit the dance floor with my honey for non-stop bootie-shaking business! Best party ever!"

Ain't a person who can't use a little more disco in their life. This set includes a bunch of disco and house tracks I played upstairs at Monarch SF last month for the Baby Weight party.

Enjoy! - 8b

I was honored to be invited to spin a disco themed set for good friend and fellow Space Cowboy DJ Leyl Master Black for her wedding after party (Congrats Leyl & Mike!). I took the assignment seriously and so the next installment of Party People is here. Enjoy the pumping disco vibes!

Hella good time playing Bottlerock's 2024 Speakeasy! Shout out to Mo'Po and the HUSHconcerts crew for the invite and hospitality—they're the best at what they do and always great to hang out with.

Played a lot of tech house, remixes, and lots of original edits and cheesy mashups. Enjoy! - 8b

This week on Space Cowboys RIPEcast we have the man I consider the holder of the House music championship belt our very own Brad Robinson. Coming at you with a live old school vinyl set!

“The Birds of a Feather event was something really unique. To have so many of the old school Bay Area burning man crews pool their energy and resources to bring community together into one place, was just phenomenal. When Tamo first told me about the plans for the event, I got really excited, especially when she told me that there would be turntables poolside. I immediately started digging through my vinyl and reminiscing of the days when we would all dance together to these records. Each one of these tracks is like an old friend and getting to play them again for a dance floor of chosen family was a real treat. Thank you to all of the event planners who went above and beyond to create this very special weekend for us.”
