The Bounce starts the new year out with a bang bringing in DJ Riz from the Crooklyn Clan. Riz has been DJing for nearly 25 years and is a legend in the hip hop scene.
Riz released a classic mix in 1999 entitled Live from Brooklyn mixing the original samples from a number of hip hop songs. Seriously, I still hear this being played and it has been out for over 10 years.
Congratulations to Emynd & Bo Bliz on their second anniversary of the Bounce tonight at the Barbary. To celebrate they have brought in well respected turntablist and hip hop DJ Skratch Bastid. This Canadian has put in serious work, most recently working on a project called Scratch, Skratch, Scratch with DJ Scratch from The Roots and DJ Starting from Scratch. Skratch has also been working on his production and remix game most recently releasing a remix of Kardinal Offishall’s Clear. Check both out below and details about tonight after the jump.
