Spaced Invaders

A good friend to the Spaced Invaders, DJ Birdflu has dropped an ill, slow-grooving mixtape that is making its way around the Charleston area. I was able to snag a copy of it from him and I asked him if I could make it available to the Stone Groove listeners. The artwork for the cover was done by Birdflu with scissors and tape, the old school way, and you can check the track listing below and see that the attention to details he used in the cover is also used in the collage of music he constructs. Speaking of old school, this DJ uses nothing but vinyl. No not Serato, time coded or anything like that. Strictly original vinyl. You’ll hear the warm analog sounds, and the crackles and pops of gently worn vinyl pressings. The transitions are on point and if you play both this mixtape with DJ Scrunchyface Flatbroke’s Valentine’s Day podcast your beddy-bye time will be set with that special someone.

Flatbroke drops all b-boy classics in this one. It’s worth at least ten repeats before you go to sleep tonight. It’s really that good. I’m actually on my fourth time listening to it. Make sure you leave some comments for this guy letting him know how much you like his dusty crate digging.

 Payday Podcast - 12-1-08 - Scrunchyface Flatbroke: Play Now | Play in Popup | Download

To simply put it, it was awesome! Flatbroke and I did a full set up outside with the 12 foot screen, and even had a screen behind us. There was a fire going to keep people warm but there was no need because Flatbroke brought the heat! (He even dropped Fishbone into the mix, flawlessly might I add.) Even if it was a little chilly outside, people got down under the moonlight.

I was very surprised of the turnout with basically only one day of letting people know that we had to change the location to the Dose. The cool thing was that people were coming in from the bars across the street to party, people were really just chilling with us and it seemed like with some people we were all old acquaintances. And that’s really what the core idea is behind the Stone Groove party. It’s just a party for people to come out to and chill with friends and listen to good music. Personally, I want to throw the next one there.

For those who have not already done so, go have lunch or dinner at the Dose. Their wraps are great and they will fill you up, but not in that gross, I need to take a nap after eating, sort of way.
