On this week's RIPEcast Space Cowboy's resident don of house music Brad Robinson is up with his set from New Year's Day. 

"It was another incredible year at Breakfast of Champions that was full of sunshine and a lot of smiling faces.  My hats off the leadership team for all of the event planning and execution.  Thanks to everyone who came out to support the Space Cowboys and to shake your booties to my set.  This year I have been working hard on track edits to try to bring a little more energy to my dance floors and this set has a handful of those included.  I hope that you enjoy.  As always, mad respect to the artist and producers that keep this music flowing for us.  Every track is a gift." - Brad Robinson

RIPEcast Brad Robinson - Breakfast of Champions 2024

Without further delay, I’m proud to share with you my much requested set from Breakfast of Champion + It’s A New Day on New Year’s Day 2024!  I would have loved to share my live recording but due to a technical difficulty, I had to recreate the magic in a studio mix. It was amazing to kick off the new year with joy, love and hope rocking my set on the Heavy Petting Zoo stage to a sea of party people and all my friends up on stage. The highlight was debuting the track that DJ Denise and I produced at the top of my set. It’s always one of my favorite events of the year and this year was no exception. Now you can relive the magic from that moment in bass face inducing auditory bliss. BUMP IT LOUD and share!

Live at Breakfast of Champions + It's A New Day 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. 

XO, 8b

Deckard - RIPEcast Deckard BoaF '24

Birds of a Feather 2024 was an intimate, invite-only, bird-themed hotel takeover weekend of music, art, dancing, and an array of bird-brained activities brought to life by a flock of artists and crews from the Bay Area and featuring DJs from Brass Tax, Space Cowboys, StrategiK, Red Hot Beverly, Garage Mahal, Angels of bAss, Duck Pond, Pink Mammoth and more. 

The other planners and I could not have been happier at how well it came together. It felt like an Old School Raver Reunion, and we all left with our little bird hearts full. Thank you to everyone who participated, from the Artists to the DJs to each and every participant who made our little patch of Sonoma County the place to be for this weekend of hilarity, amazing music and bird vibes.

This set was recorded live from the Main Stage Bird Ball on Saturday 4/20. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Live From Birds of a Feather 2024

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.

RIPEcast Tadao Live Birds of a Feather '24

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. 

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

From Tamo: I had a nice time playing a slowed down deeper breaks set this year on Thursday night at Opulent Temple and I hope you enjoy it too!  This was one of my favorite sets this year and loved having so many good friends and Space Cowboy crew on the dance floor.

Recorded live at Opulent Temple at Burning Man 2016.
