Pass The Butter Baby! Wednesday July 7th w/ Kris
Hernandez
Every Wednesday night at Andy Poolhall, Bruckbeat radio's
Splattermonkey & Friends present... Pass the Butter Wednesdays!
We asked Splattermonkey, what he was going to do with his
night, and he said, "W'ell be drippin' some hot buttered Soul,
Blues, Funk, Latin, Afro, Afro-Latin, Ska, Reggae, whatever's
good. You know, from our crates and crates of Motown, Stax,
Atlantic, Cadet, Cadillac, Daptone, Tru Thoughts, Studio One
and... blah blah blah blah..."
Thanks Splattermonkey! Never ask this guy about music. He
never shuts up. It's much better to hear him spin. Check out
his podcast at http://splattermonkey.podomatic.com

AFTER PARTY!!!!!!!
|
Hosted by Robb G and friends. Funky house and filthy bass
to make your shake your rump.
Robb G is literally "in" the music when he's on stage, dripping
with sweat as he screams at the crowd, possessed by the music
while he throbs in a head banging body thrash. After seeing
him live, there is no questioning that Robb G is a man who
truly loves what he does. Known for his speedy beatmatching
and continuously layered mixing, he's performed in Europe
and from coast to coast in North America, appearing in over
40 cities on his
native continent.
Robb G has had releases and remixes on over a dozen labels
in the last decade. His 12 Inch Therapy single received tremendous
acclaim, making its way to the top of URB, iDJ, and Mixmag's
Best Of 2008 lists. It hit the
number 12 spot on the UK buzz charts and became the number
1 most requested song on Sirius Radio's Boombox Channel for
the entire year. It is no surprise that the Plump DJs named
him alongside Justice and Switch when
asked who the most exciting producers are.
With his current releases being played by the likes of Kissy
Sell Out, Lee Mortimer and DJ Dan, a second full-length album
already in the works and a 2010 touring schedule that will
take him to the 4 corners of North America and abroad, it's
a real special treat to catch Robb G in the intimate Andy
Poolhall environment.
Special guests: Evan G from Activate and Chiclet from
Eclectic Groove.
