It's been a while since I've felt the energy to throw down a proper breaks set.  To tell the truth, I've felt like I've been in a funk for the past couple years..  A lot of who I am and my energy is dedicated to my two year old and she totally deserves it. But, recently I've felt energized again like I'm getting out of the funk I've been in..   I thought I should jump on the decks and see for sure.   Hope you enjoy it!

On this weeks RIPEcast our good friend from New York @_defkon with a live set on the Mog stage from Breakfast of Champions '25.

From Defkon - 
Playing the 25th Anniversary of Breakfast of Champions was an absolute honor. The Space Cowboys have been a huge inspiration in my journey as a DJ, so getting the chance to represent Brooklyn at BOC this year was a dream come true. Sharing the stage with legends like Sporty-O  & Thug Shells  —who both came out to perform with me—made it even more special.
Knowing I was playing for a veteran crowd that’s heard and danced to some of the best breaks out there, I knew I had to bring my A-game. I think I accurately delivered my sound, keeping the energy high and the dance floor moving until the very end. Closing out the legendary MOG Stage alongside my mentors was an unforgettable experience.
Huge thanks to DJ Deckard, Rumblemunk, and the entire Space Cowboys crew for welcoming me with open arms and making me feel at home!

From deep grooves to bad ass vocals, this mix is a love letter to the force of women in music.

Hello friends! Here’s my set from the 2025 Bottlerock roller rink — a cheeky, slightly shameful ride through bouncy remixes, edits, and mashups. Think of it as one big, extended Rick Roll: full of guilty pleasures, surprise flips, and rollerskating-ready controlled chaos. I had an absolute blast playing, and I can officially check “DJ a roller rink” off the bucket list.

Big love to the legends at HUSHconcerts and the Lululemon brand team for creating such a stunning activation!

8ball - Bottlerock 2025 - Roller Rink Rick Roll

This set has been in development for a long time. Originally arranged for 2024 campout season, it was shelved for nearly a year. More tracks were acquired and integrated in 2025, abd a bunch that were originally in didn't make the final cut. I've been taking some time off from DJing while learning to play guitar and pursue other creative outlets, but I felt the inspiration to dust off the decks and finally get this set finished. I'm pleased with how it turned out and I hope you enjoy it! If you do, drop a <3, repost and follow me. I'll try to not let an entire year go by before the next recording gets published! 

Straight from Oakland

I finally had a crack at re-recording the mix I played at the mega amazing daybreaks party in Bristol with the FingerLicking family earlier this year.

Don't let the 'DAY' bit fool ya cos we all proper went in!

If you like your breakbeats by day then come and join me with the Stanton Warriors, Mini Da Minx, The glitter Bosher and Svetti on the 27th July on London's southbank

This week on the RIPEcast we have Space Cowboy resident DJ rrrus with his recording live from Breakfast of Champions. Recorded at Great Northern January 1, 2025. 

From rrrus "I am here to light your fuse and warm your shoes.  Bump funk up your trunk and slam jam like a clam.  Damn, I’m hungry.  Let’s go to Breakfast of Champions and feast like beasts on bass so thick it sticks like a brick. Shake it!"

RIPEcast Guest Mix DJ Dan

I started making this mix series 11 years ago to celebrate my birthday and DJ anniversary.  After a short break, I am pleased to bring the tradition back to life with Twenty-Two, celebrating my 50th birthday and 22 years of DJing. I usually set a lot of rules for programming these studio mixes but I let that all go for this mix and just chose what moved me. I hope it moves you too! I found the album cover quite fitting, which was taken at my 40th at the first ShOOnanigans 10 years ago! 

I am excited to celebrate my 50th at Public Works SF on Sat 7/19! We have one of my favorite producers, Aylen, headlining along with special guests and my long-time friends Dulce Vita (Opulent Temple), Haute Mess (Brass Tax), and Nugz (Dusty Rhino). Space Cowboys DJs 8ball, Deckard, gLover, Kapt'n Kirk, Leyl Master Black, Rumblemunk, and your truly, will be shaking up the club on both floors and Maculate and Vizual Nektar will be on visuals!

Skip the FOMO, and get your tickets today!

RIPEcast ShOOey - Twenty-Two

If we were to assume the existence of a simulation, however, and explore the concept of it through sacred geometry, we might consider the following:

Understanding Sacred Geometry
Sacred geometry is the study of the shapes, patterns, and symbols that are believed to have spiritual or mystical influence. 

Frequency and Vibration:
   * Resonance: If the simulation operates on specific frequencies, understanding and manipulating these frequencies could help influence its functioning.
   * Harmonics: Using sacred geometric patterns and their corresponding vibrational frequencies might create interference or resonance that could influence the simulation.
 
   * Code and Algorithms: Sacred geometry might represent underlying patterns or codes within the simulation. Identifying and manipulating these patterns could potentially create opportunities to influence the simulation.   
   * Entropy: Introducing chaos or randomness into the simulation's ordered patterns could influence its underlying code. 

   * Higher Dimensions: If the simulation exists within a higher-dimensional space, understanding and interacting with these dimensions could potentially allow for accessing hidden functionalities.
   * Fractal Patterns: Sacred geometric patterns often exhibit fractal characteristics, which could be used to influence the simulation's scale or structure.
