DJ Rasp Blues Set

Popular modern opinion dictates that firing up festival crowds with good music is a fun and worthy pastime. Just as widely accepted a fact is how fickle festival crowds can be and how the firing up of them might not always be the easiest thing to do. So far this hasn’t been an issue for the Vinyl Slingers, who have built their reputation precisely on turning large crowds into frenzied mobs. These particular talents are renowned from Queensland’s sunshine coast to the CBD of Sydney. 
Comprising a bunch of instrumentalists, Vinyl Slingers isn’t your conventional dance outfit. Emerging from the breaks scene seven years ago, the musical range of the band now ventures beyond labels and genres. To wit, the Vinyl Slingers sound is founded in bass- heavy funk, but given its members – a percussionist, a regular drummer with a full drum kit, an MC, a scratch DJ and a didgeridoo player – it’s easy to see how the group might stray from a singular sound. Then there are the special guest performers who regularly join the crew for festival rabble-rousing. These guests have so far included flutists, bass players, DJs, trumpeters and MCs – the more the merrier!
