About DJ Mes:
DJ Mes |  Guesthouse Music | Oakland, CA    Bay-Area bred DJ Mes (Jason Sutton) rarely slows his groove. Since the 2004 inception of his Oakland-based label, Guesthouse Music, Mes has produced a prolific catalogue of bass-heavy tracks that have scorched dance floors amid the ebb and flow of electronic music. As a DJ, his sets have inspired; as a producer, his montage of disco-dredged beats meld bump with rhythm and bass to create hot buzz in front of and beyond the speakers. In 2011, Traxsource honored Mes with the top spot on a list of 100 best house tracks of 2011 following the release of the bumpy Chicago-sound behind "Fools Gold" (Cajual Recordings).  
Mes· career dates back to the mid-1990s, when the future producer took early influence from the likes of DJ Dan (Funky Tech no Tribe) and Tony Hewitt (Tango Recordings). Some two decades later, it would be DJ Dan who would join the talent ranks of Guesthouse Music, Mes' genre-defying imprint that earned him notoriety beyond numerous festival appearances, club residencies, and as co-founder of Daddy's Records (1996). Unlike previous endeavors, Guesthouse bloomed as a personal and creative project inspired by the underground house community that embraced the sound in the U.S. and overseas. While Mes continued releasing tracks on acclaimed labels such as Casual, Relief, Glasgow Underground and Salted, it is his own Guesthouse Music that set the pace, approaching 600 releases-including 50 vinyl releases-since its inception.   

Mes' ear for talent led to the unveiling of some of the most successful names in underground house, including breakout artists of 2011, J Paul Getto, who scaled the charts of Traxsource with "Need More Music" and "Paris Fried Chicken" Boundary-bending producers, such as Gramphonedzie, and classic acts, such as Cosy Creatures and The Sound Republic, exploded onto the scene under Mes· own A&R moxie. Even while he introduced new DJs and producers to audiences, he continued creating his own body of boompty sounds.  
While Mes looks ahead for talent, he creatively nods to sounds that inspired him to slide behind the decks more than 16 years ago. In 2011, Mes followed up his seminal "Fools Gold" release (Cajual Recordings) with a second EP, "Town Business." "Lonley Nights," a rework of Isaac Hayes classic "I Can't Turn Around," climbed the underground charts alongside a remix of The Magi classic, "C'mon Clap Your Hands." Even while maintaining a regular touring schedule throughout the U.S. and Europe, Mes continues partnering with the some of the scene's most lauded producers, such as DJ Sneak and his own greatest influence, DJ Dan.  
In December 2011, Mes and Guesthouse created another piece of house music history by releasing their 100th track, "3000" (J Paul Getto). For Mes, it marks the beginning of another phase of underground house evolution. Adds Mes: "I'm always working to sign new or undiscovered music and talent to the label, and maybe even throw a curve ball to startle people with a new, unexpected style or sound. It's what it's all about."  

Bass. Beats. Funk. That's what Mes is all about!

Black Velveteen on the RIPEcast

This week, we are starting a series of live recordings from the inaugural Unison Campout. Unison was a project Space Cowboys have been a part of since the beginning—combining the forces of many communities and crews to raise money during the pandemic with livestreams and this was the first all in-person event!

It makes sense then to open the series with @Lowdeka, whose killer set opened up Saturday after the ceremony and tore up the dance floor! 

From Lowdeka:
"This was my first live in person breaks set. I put a lot of heart into it with the hope that it would take you on an uplifting journey through dance. I hope you enjoy listening/dancing to it as much as I enjoyed making it!"


About Lowdeka:
Lowdeka is a Producer/Dj and California native who has three decades in the various incarnations of the west coast underground culture. As a b-boy (break dancer) battling his way through the 90's and as a Dj since 1999. This has had a profound influence on his music style which can be heard in a variety of genres.  As a producer, Lowdeka is in pursuit of the perfect amalgamation of the sounds that inspire him; funky bass lines, hype breaks, head bobbing rhythms, aggressive drops and an unrelenting energy is shared amongst an array of genres that make up his unique style.

Just in time for your drive to Burning Man (or your speakers at home if you're not going), here's a fun poolside set from Unison Campout (https://unison.stream) by DJ SkinnyFAT (@edgar-blazona)! Enjoy!

Here's what SkinnyFAT had to say about the set:
"Throw in a little bass house, add some breaks, and sprinkle a little old school hip hop and what do you get? A nice pool side mix to get you dancing around the pool."

SkinnyFAT Live at Unison Campout 2022 on RIPEcast

This week's RIPEcast is from Space Cowboy's own DJ Deckard. Here's what he has to say for himself:

"Breakfast of Champions is consistently my favorite party of the year both to DJ and attend. I opened the outdoor main stage at 9am this year and for all intents and purposes got to play the sunrise set I had been desiring to play but never got the chance at Burning Man earlier in the year. I took it as an opportunity and honor to be able to set the tone for the morning and get the party off on the right foot. I loved getting to play more of a house oriented set with vocals and a block party feel towards the end of the set. I had a blast playing and hope it shows through in the set."

Bio:
Deckard began DJing in Seattle in 2000 and soon began playing gigs up and down the west coast. Upon moving to San Francisco in 2005 he fell in love with the electronic music scene which is so unique to the Bay Area. You can find him spinning at San Francisco institutions such as Mighty, Shine, Supper Club, Wish and the End Up. Deckard capped off a successful 2009 by joining up with the Space Cowboys Burning Man camp. Depending on the crowd, venue and time of day you might find him spinning downtempo lounge, funky big beat, tech house, electro or breaks.

We got loads more mixes frmo the Four Elements Campout thrown by our friends Unison and 3 Degrees. This week is a Saturday night set from Denver Drake (@doubledz-1) and it slays so hard you're going to need to do some cooldown stretches. Enjoy!

Here's what Denver had to say about the mix: "This year's UNISON campout was so much fun!  This set definitely has a lot of variety but also some of my favorite songs to dance to.  Everyone at the campout brought their A game so hopefully I was able to step up!"

About Denver Drake:
Denver is Santa Cruz area DJ.  He started DJing for family dance parties on an iPad and fell in love with all the crazy good electronic music that has been coming out for the last several years.  He has done several weddings and school dances and loves to share music and show people a good time.  New school house, bass house, tech house, g house, and occasionally breaks is on the menu for most of his favorite sets.  He grew up listening to lots of hip hop and punk and tries to bring a level of fun and angst in every set.

Space Cowboys are happy to have Qdup back playing our Haunted Hoedown part Saturday Oct. 28 at Great Northern. 

From the man himself "I put this mix together as I’m getting ready to come to SF and play Space Cowboy’s Haunted Hoedown at the end of the month. I just made a breaks remix of Six Shooter specifically for the Hoedown that seemed appropriate. I included it in this mix along with a bunch of breaks and house tunes that are really hitting the spot for me right now. In my experience nobody does Halloween like SF and I’m stoked to come rock with Space Cowboys and come Hoedown with you all!"

We're almost at Hoedown time! Before that, let's get y'all warmed up with some bassy pool-side vibes from none other than D2 (@d2thedj)!

Here's what D2 had to say about the mix: "Hip-hop has been such an important part of my life driving me to find the origin of its samples, (which alone expanded my library),  sparking my desire to play drums and telling stories that didn’t necessarily relate to me but helped me develop strong compassion for others.  I hope you enjoy the syncopated journey of drums and great MC’s that I crafted just for Unison. "

About D2:
D2 has toured the world as a drummer playing almost every style of music.
When the pandemic put a pause on her gigs, she decided to give the decks a spin and see if they would provide the musical fix her soul needed. They did. 
She’s just getting started but excited to keep making booties shake for years to come.

This week, another poolside slammer from Fantastic Voyage's Giancarlo (@gots2be). Perfect sunny vibes to battle the SADs from summer being over. Crank it up and lay back! ☀️🎶

Here's what Giancarlo had to say about the mix: 
"This mix was a special one for me. To be invited to play this event meant that I was able to reunite with some of my Fantastic Voyage crew and experience the magic of the weekend together. Our collective energy has been a focus on having fun. I tried to include music in this set that embodies that focus for me, as well as tunes that has influenced me in my recent production."

Deckard My Definition of Chill XII

Ayyyyy! If you were at Breakfast of Champions x It's a New Day this year, I hope you had as much fun as I did! I book-ended the party, mixing video on the Mog at the beginning and DJing on the BoC Space Stage to close the party out. Huge thanks to the happy crowd out there at the end—you made my night and helped kick off 2024 with an incredibly positive boost. 

Here's my set from the party! As usual, I put a lot into it—editing, layering samples and acapellas—and I was also inclined to detoured into DnB for a bit. Enjoy!

XO, 8b

8ball - Breakfast Of Champions 2024

This week on the RIPEcast is longtime Space Cowboy J9 the Angel. 

What can I say except that BOC is always my favorite party of the year because I get to see all of your beautiful faces! 2023 was particularly challenging for me, so it’s all the more special start the year in this way and to receive so many hugs, and have such deep and meaningful conversation. The best part is always seeing your joy and dancing from behind the decks. We spend so much time crafting a set and experience that we think you’ll enjoy, and the look on your faces is most certainly the payoff! I hope you’ll enjoy listening to this mix and reliving the moments from that beautiful, sunny day. I was surrounded with family, from near and far, and I’m so grateful for each and every one of you, and for this experience, always.
So much love, 
Janine 

Special thanks go out to all of my producer friends who provided the soundtrack for the day, namely Raul/83, Miguel/Elektroshock, and Fran/Banana Club Records. Your friendship and talent is a true gift!

J9 RIPEcast Breakfast of Champions 2024

Breakfast of Champions + It’s a New Day is always the best party of the year and I love the event because it’s indeed a new day and everyone is there full of optimism for a fresh start. It’s always an honor to play there and it was also my first time playing on the Mog, about a decade after dancing to DJs on the Mog inspired me to DJ! This set harkens back to some of the breaks roots and also features an original track on an EP that was recently released (https://kevnull.bandcamp.com/album/how-about-drums) I hope you enjoy it! -kev/null

kev/null RIPEcast - Breakfast of Champions 2024

Space Cowboy resident Rumblemunk is up on this week's RIPEcast with his live set from Breakfast of Champions 2024! 

In his words "I’m not a turntable-ist or an OG breakbeat DJ/producer, but when your set is in between Cut Chemist and Elite Force, whaddya do?

This set starts with a supporting MC, blazes through a mash-up of Drummatic Twins re-releases (thanks Nick), followed by my BOC 2023 release Shake That Thing, stops in with some Nick Thayer, bounces through my Eminight’s Doom bootleg, then settles in for an Elite Force medley (thanks Simon) that ends with playing the CDJ like an instrument. Brass Monkey gets us back on track heading towards a half time grind and shake, then resetting with a classic breakbeat, ending with my latest release, a Tears For Fears bootleg.

Thank you for all the love and support at this year’s BOC. Hope you enjoy the set and the memories!" - Rumblemunk

Rumblemunk RIPEcast Breakfast Of Champions 2024

The original idea was to post this around my birthday in March, after getting about halfway through I realized March wouldn't happen because... well, I was only about halfway through. I parked it to focus on other things. Then came incredibly sad news about friend and Space Cowboy, Danny. He was always a fan of the BBQ sets, and frequently asked when I'd get to another. Yesterday was Danny's birthday, so I carved out time and finished it up. Not perfect, but long af, and hopefully suitable for BBQing. RIP Danny, hope he bumps this at the big grill in the sky.

On the RIPEcast this week close friend of ours Tadao! Recorded Live at Birds of a Feather 2024. 
Tadao became captivated by Breakbeats in the sands of the Black Rock desert in 2002. Years later he joined Strategik to help throw renegades and keep the Bay area Breaks scene vibrant. In the 2000 teens, the proliferation of Breaks in the Bay Area waned. Never content to stand on the sidelines, he jumped on the decks and founded Red Hot Beverly to help keep Breaks alive and well.

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.”

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.

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!"

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."

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

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.”

In promotion with his US tour last year, Martin Flex's killer mix hit it big on the RIPEcast.  In 2016, Martin is touring the US once more, this time with Mutantbreakz, and we thought it would be fitting to release another exclusive mix on the Space Cowboys' RIPEcast.  

Martin Flex (aka PuRe SX), is one of UK’s finest purveyors of booty breaks, and label boss of several well-known breaks imprints including Hot Cakes, Rat Records and Let's Go! Recordings. He knows how to drop the 808 boom and send the bodies flying around the room. Blasting out of the thriving UK underground since 2008, he currently DJs all over the world from Florida to Spain, Russia to London and beyond.  He will be touring the US 19th February to 24th March.

Famous for low end terrorism in the form of his smash hits 212 Booty and Link Up alongside Deekline, as well as his recent bangers Sunglasses and Lift off the Roof, PuRe SX has picked up support for his music from all the top names on the scene, from Deekline to Stanton Warriors, Ed Solo to Lady Waks and Krafty Kuts to the Freestylers. Here is a producer and DJ with the skills to lock down the club for as long as he's on the turntables: a true original with an arsenal of floor-shaking weapons to get those hands up and keep them there 'til the break of dawn.

Hoping this helps smooth things out, at least for a little while. 

Track listing in the comments.

8ball - Don't Stop The Yacht... Rock

Gently swaying in a current of Adult Oriented Rock and related sounds while sipping margaritas and languidly exploring the Seven Seas.

If you're a fan of Bergamot Alley, the set may be a little bittersweet—this is a version of what I played at their closing dancing party last month. 

Enjoy!

On this weeks episode of the Space Cowboys RIPEcast, we are bringing you a guest mix from long time cowboy favorite dj and producer Deekline.  

Deekline is that rare figure in dance music, the seminal producer who balances the cutting edge and the mainstream with effortless flair. Boss man chief of the London to Brighton-spanning Hot Cakes collective of producers, promoters and DJs, this bonafide bass music icon is currently experiencing a new lease of life following the phenomenal success of his new Gutter Gutter imprint. 

Tracks such as Got to Believe, Deepa and the new jungle anthem Good to Have the Feelin, with the legendary Tippa Irie, have this year picked up play and support from some of the biggest names in the business, DJs such as MistaJam and Annie Mac, on Radio 1 and 1Xtra. 

In the studio, Deekline is a bonafide musical shapeshifter, his impressive diversity having seen him rework the likes of Armand Van Helden, Old Dirty Bastard and The Prodigy. A producer whose Hot Cakes and Gutter Gutter brands have become a byword for bassbin-shaking bravado, this is one artist who's cooking up a storm right now.

Although we've started releasing Unison 5 sets, we still have a stockpile of Unison 4 recordings as well and we need to share them! This week, we are featuring our very own Space Cowboy, kev/null (@kevnull). He's also simultaneously released his Unison 5 set on his soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/kevnull/elections2020

Here's what he had to say about his Unison 4 set:
"An unexpected part of playing live streaming is learning a whole new skillset around visuals. For this set, I decided to try to try and do projection mapping onto the back of my house and combine it with a fun upbeat breaks set with a ton of great new music. I hope you enjoy it! You can also view the full visuals at: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/727351998?collection=mjVKwjdyMBbdQA "

kev/null RIPEcast Live at Unison 4

Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it. In these times, we're particularly thankful for the solace of music and amazing talent we get to share.

This week we’re delighted to bring you Strategik’s very own J’Aime Ma Vie on her first ever RIPEcast. J’amie Ma Vie, also known as Jamie James, has a deep appreciation for all electronic music, but drum & bass will always have her heart. This special Unison 5 set is sure to take you on a magical adventure, easing in with a softer side then building up to bring it on home. 

Here's what J'amie Ma Vie had to say about the mix:
"This mix was born for Unison 5. I have been helping coordinate Unison over the last several months, along the way raising money for several important Bay Area causes. Representing Strategik, I've developed a deep bond with my fellow Unison coordinators, including members of Space Cowboys, Angels of Bass, FnF, Ambient Mafia, Venus Grove Collective, 3 Degrees, and Decadent Oasis. The opportunity to live-stream with such talented DJs is an honor."

About J'amie Ma Vie:
After finding her way to her first underground in 1995, Jamie James quickly realized she was not only a raver but a dancer down to her core. From that point on she has danced her way through life, knowing the dance floor will always be a sacred and therapeutic space to hold her. Feeling extremely grateful to have found the rave scene at such a young age, Jamie decided to help produce parties in Seattle, Honolulu, San Francisco and Austin. In 2007 she joined forces with her beloved Strategik crew, known for their out-of-this world, marathon renegades and signature breaks vibe. True to her heart, Jamie worked hard to keep a variety of other genres flowing throughout many of Strategik's lineups, especially drum & bass. In 2016, twenty years after her first party, Jamie finally decided to jump in and learn to mix. That’s when DJ J’amie Ma Vie was born. Becoming a DJ has been one of the most humbling experiences Jamie has ever had. Experiencing first hand the amount of time, energy, and love that goes into creating a musical journey continues to blow her mind. As a dancer Jamie has always held a deep appreciation for DJs, but taking a chance and learning what it’s like to be on the other side of the decks has expanded her understanding and respect for DJ culture exponentially. While Jamie enjoys playing multiple genres, drum & bass stole her heart in the late 90’s and will always be her favorite to throw down. When she’s not behind the decks you can find Jamie handling operations for festivals and events all over the world, including Envision, Sunset Sound System, LIB, Dirtybird, BoC, Unison & Sanctuary.

This week, we're continuing releases from Unison 5 (@unison_stream). This time it's a heavy-hitting breaks mix from Santa Cruz DJ Sessions' Stuart Hill Robinson. Enjoy!

Here's what Stu had to say about the mix:
"I've been working closely with members of the Space Cowboys for the Unison Events of 2020. I'm extremely grateful to work with the Unison team, and to have the opportunity to play on the Space Cowboys Twitch channel. This mix is from Unison 5, and is an incredible, bass-filled hour!"

About Stuart Hill Robinson:
Stuart Hill Robinson has been working in SF Bay Area music and entertainment off and on for over 20 years, having been a promoter for Clockwork Events and Funky Techno Tribe in the late 1990s and early 2000s, along with conventional DJ/MC work for Sound In Motion Events. He prefers to work behind the scenes, which is why you will rarely find his mixes online, or his name on a flyer. But he hopes that you appreciate what he does share.

This week, we are featuring our very own Rumblemunk from his set at LIVEcast 12. Rumblemunk has been a staple of this year's virtual Space Cowboys virtual events and been a force to reckon with behind the decks and behind the scenes. Here's what he had to say about this mix:

"This has been a year of digging in the “Rekordbox” and mixing new hotness with old tunes that no one has heard me play. It kind of turned into a love letter to Quadrat Beat and that’s OK. I did manage to sneak an older remix too, so keep an ear out for the Public Enemy drop. Producer note: the remix not only uses the vocal samples from Bring The Noise, musically it follows the guitar riffs that Anthrax played in the original."

Happy holidays everyone! We close out the year with a live recording from Bay Area producer and DJ, stickybeats (@stickybeats_sf). In addition to being a talented DJ, he's recently produced a few tracks with Space Cowboy's own kev/null across multiple genres.

We'll be taking a break next week for RIPEcast. In the meantime, please make sure to give us a rating if you've been enjoying the RIPEcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/ripecast-by-space-cowboys/id637170409 and join us next week for a virtual Breakfast of Champions!  https://www.facebook.com/events/446447503017921

Here's what he had to say about the set:
"Huge thank you to Space Cowboys for having me on as a guest DJ! This year more than ever, it's music that connects us and keeps us together. Recorded live from a super secret living room location in SF for Unison 4, an online streaming party that raised $10,000 for Santa Cruz Wildfire Relief. I'm happy to share this set with you as it weaves in and out of tech house and funky disco house, taking you on a journey of big bass lines and catchy grooves. Turn it up and enjoy the mix!"
