Jackpot is a monthly party I've done with Still Life for over 3 years at the Commodore in Brooklyn. We focus on heavy funk, northern soul, 50s RnB, garage and psyche rock, salsa, cumbia, afrobeat, early disco, modern, whatever we feel really. Mostly groovy and/or raw tracks that came out on a 7" format between the 50s and the 70s. Vintage sounds for a modern age. Snap crackle and pop over overproduced bullshit. In a nutshell...real schitt.
Our main guest is the one and LARGE PROFESSOR aka Large Pro Xtra P etc etc. Founder of Main Source and MC and producer of too many hip hop hits to list from Nas to Organized Konfusion Tribe Rakim Big Daddy Kane Mobb Deep the list goes on and on and on. And besides all that, dude is a sick DJ with a healthy stack of funk 45s and beyond. NYC legend and very happy to have him throwing down.
NYDIA INES is someone I've known for many years, she's gotten her post-phd in vinyl archeology at this point. While behind the scenes for many years at the fine Daptone label, she's also amassed a stack of some heavyweight 45s and shares then around town and via mixes. Always deep and on point.
E's E is one part of the team that brings you Names You Can Trust, and NYC based label putting out a myriad of latin sounds and beyond, from new cumbia out of Colombia to rare disco reggae reissues. 100 proof. Alongside label fellow label honchos Monk One and Navarro, E has been involved with some great tag team throwdowns at the Sycamore and various brooklyn underground tings.
STILL LIFE co-hosts the monthly Jackpot party at the Commodore, and also does the 'Worldwide Smash' show on East Village Radio weekly. When not promoting records and reissues for the fine Strut label among others, you can find him killing it around NYC. Does his thang!
$MALL ¢HANGE...is just some guy with a few rekkids ;) I love playing funky 45s in the wee hours so stay late!! Besides putting this together and co-hosting the Jackpot monthly with Still Life, I also do a weekly show on WFMU and have playing around NYC for 20 years...
