Gershoni Sound Radio

This CD showcases what you can expect from a DJ Platurn live show: A wide variety of hip-hop, funk, reggae, breaks, old-school cuts, and blend routines all expertly mixed like a real DJ should, and topped off with just the right scratches to complement the music.  It's a throwback to the wide array of skills that used to be expected of DJs, and it's a display of deep crates, serious music knowledge, and real skills.  Like all great mixtapes from the past, this one is timeless.

About Dj Spair - Co- Founder of the already-legendary Oakland Faders crew, Spair has already become a major factor in the still evolving Bay Area DJ scene. A well-respected contest winning mix DJ with deep crates and an even bigger love for vinyl, Spair has redefined his technical abilities to become a club favorite as well as a skilled producer.

While still in High School, Spair briefly ran a record pool with future DJ Mere and cut his teeth as an in store DJ for Beastie Boys owned X-Large store, in addition to making his first forays into the world of mix tapes. In 1999, Spair won URB magazine’s first ever mix-tape contest. Soon after that, his tape The Spair Mix Project, came to the attention of the SF DJ Cue, who was assembling a compilation, (Cue’s Hip Hop Shop) for Stray/Dogday records, then a well-respected player in hip-hop game. “Dope Music,” the first track ever credited to the Oakland Faders, the label was impressed enough to commission a 7” vinyl EP, Fader Beats, which featured Spair and DJ Platurn.

After continuing to hone his abilities, pumping out mix-tape after mix-tape and completing a stint at the Red Bull Music Academy in South Africa in 2003, Spair and Platurn entered Scion’s 2004 nationwide mix-tape contest, “Free Up Your Mix.” The Faders placed first, beating over 600 competitors, and their winning mix as distributed on 500,000 promotional CDs, which brought what had been one of the Bay’s best-kept secrets to national attention.

Since then, Spair has opened up for numerous artists, including Kool Moe Dee, Xzibit, Hi-Tek, Mix Master Mike, and the Roots. Spair’s production can be found on Bas-1’s Music for the Mentally Astute, Colossus’ “From the Lab remix, Live Human’s Remix LP,” and many other video and television projects. He’s also compiled an impressive mix-tape catalog dating back to 1996.

Spair wants it to be known that while he considers himself a hip-hop head, he’s first and foremost a fan of all music. “I don’t just focus on one genre; hip=hop is where my heart is at, he says. “ I like coming up with a creative mix, and being able to show my technical skills. Although mixing remains at the core of what Spair does, as he gets deeper into original production, he’s grown artistically, on an exponential level. “I don’t want to be classified as just a Dj… at the end of the day, it’s all music. Still, he adds, “being a DJ makes you a better producer.”

Born in New Orleans, raised on the isle of Bermuda with intermittent stays in urban Toronto, Colin Harper is not an easy youth to pin down geographically. His musical alter ego Collie Buddz however, is one of the most firmly grounded voices you may ever encounter. Incorporating influences from hip-hop to soca, Collie’s music nevertheless has a rock-solid foundation in reggae - and its power to connect ghetto reality with the highest heights of human aspiration - that is a rarity even in Jamaica.

Born in 1981, at the dawn of the turbulent era signaled by the twin omens of Bob Marley’s passing and Ronald Reagan’s election, Collie was immersed in the sound system culture of Bermuda aka “The Rock” since the age of 6. “I used to come home from primary school and my brother would always be on the turntables, playin his new 45's an' I'd just be there vibesin'.” The evolution of dancehall and sound-clash culture into a movement of it’s own in the late 80s and early 90s set the backdrop for young Collie’s discovery of his own sonic identity, and the dancehall kings of that generation - Buju Banton, Bounty Killer and Beenie Man served as his primary influences. “Back when Beenie and Bounty used to war lyrically, seeing clashes wit’ Kilimanjaro an all the sound-man an’ everyt’ing…the whole music scene for me took on a new meaning. Clash thing an’ lyrical war became a part of my daily life from early out.”

The daily operation of trading lyrics in schoolyard clashes quickly gave way to more serious combat as “…people startin sayin ‘Ay, Buddz got some lyrics!’ From an early age, some of the local sounds on the island wanted to get me on dubplate,” says Collie, who stepped into the first of many vocal booths at age 16 to voice customized dubs for some Bermudian sounds. "Sounds was always trying to buss local artists in Bermuda.” Consistent encouragement from the various soundmen and engineers he encountered on those dub excursions led Collie to maintain a musical focus and eventually trek to Florida for a degree in audio engineering, a path that ended behind the boards of his own Bermudian studio, jointly run with his older brother (Smokey) and Sneek Success from one of Bermuda's founding sounds, 'Newclear Weapon'. Building riddims for other artists only expanded his love for writing and voicing his own lyrics however. “I used to make these beats an’ none of the tunes came out how I pictured an artist sittin’ on de riddim, so I decided to start to get in the booth myself again and spit some lyrics. Unless my brother engineerin’ for me, I’m runnin from the board to the booth, back to the board!” Like boot camp for a one-man army, that experience molded the signature vocal style that defines Collie Buddz - a songwriter who can lay his own riddim, sing the hook and chat on the verse. “I build de riddim first and while I’m building it I don’t try an’ think about lyrics ‘cause I'm tryin' to focus on the riddim, yunno? I make it sound as best I can and then for a day or two I rest my ears then start de writing process. I come up wif a melody firs’ and get that down, then start with the lyrics.” The skill with which he compartmentalizes multiple roles in the studio also extends to his easy movement between styles.

I've been wanting to put the mix I've been doing at these shows online, in hopes of spreading the word to people who need to hear it most. So, here it is:

http://djztrip.com/obama/

I encourage you to download it and pass it along to anyone you think should hear it. Feel free to burn copies, share it with friends, family, co-workers, strangers, and especially anyone you know is on the fence about this election. I'm also putting out a radio friendly version, in case anyone wants to broadcast it.

Please share the message. Educate those who may not know what is really going on. There is still time.

If you, or anyone you know, isn't registered to vote, I encourage you to make it a priority and fix that before it's too late. This election is WAY too important for anyone to not get involved. If you need more information on how and where to register, vote, or participate, please check the links below.

I honestly feel if we make our voices heard, this time WILL be different."

Peace, Z-TRIP

Triple Threat represents the future of turntablism, precisely because they've been so instrumental to its storied past. Though they have championship-level skills at scratching and beat-juggling they also know how to rock a party, produce music and create original compositions with two turntables. They are not just djs, turntablists, producers, musicians or club djs, they encompass all aspects.

Jah Warrior Shelter Hi Fi is an award winning sound system based in California’s Bay Area. JWSHF was originally founded by singer/DJ Rocker-T during the early nineties in Brooklyn, NY . The sound became well known playing at the infamous Lion’s Den Dance during the mid nineties. In the late 1990’s, the sound system expanded to the Bay Area, first with selector Jah Yzer joining the crew, and DJ’s I-Vier and Irie Dole joining shortly thereafter.

In the 2000's Jah Warrior Shelter Hi Fi has established themselves as one of California's leading sounds, winning 7 Sound Clashes in a row.

Dj Platurn - Bio -

Man, who the hell isn't a DJ in the Bay Area these days? Every other person you bump into is on the tip. Just being a DJ isn't good enough anymore. It has to be, "I'm an intelligent down tempo booty rock electro-clash mash-up glitch-IDM DJ. Oh, and I also play Duran Duran."

When was it decided that any jerk with 10 records (or 100 MP3s and Serato) is a DJ, and when was it decided that just being a good old-fashioned hip-hop DJ is passé?

DJ Platurn is way beyond all of that. He's a real deal hip-hop DJ who rocks the party the original way: nothing but top-notch track selection and skills to back it up. Give the man two turntables and a mixer and stand back because you're going to witness some classic DJing. He'll not only serve the crowd what they're hungry for, he'll keep 'em dancing with all kinds of tunes they didn't even know they wanted to hear. Cutting up breakbeats, doing blends live and on the fly, scratching, mixing…the guy's got the full skill set to be a fully-rounded DJ, and he's good at everything. Not only is that increasingly rare in today's "instant DJ--just add water!" world, it's a strong and important tie to the Hip-Hop tradition Platurn comes from: In order to get on and really do a good job as a DJ, you have to be well-rounded.

Being a good and well-rounded DJ also means being a top-notch selector. Platurn ain't fakin' the funk when it comes to his record collection and what he plays for the crowd. Well-known cuts, obscurities, remixes, hip-hop, funk, rock, disco, soul, and pop all expertly woven together. You want B-boy breaks? He's got you covered. Slow jams? Awwww yeeeeaaaah. Do you want old-school hip-hop? Break out the Gazelles, fool! Wherever the party needs to go, he is prepared to take it there.

Word certainly spreads quickly; besides having been voted Oakland's best DJ by the East Bay Express and winning Scions’ Free Up Your Mix competition along with fellow Oakland Fader DJ Spair, Platurn has devastated crowds from coast to coast and internationally. In doing so, he's shared the stage with folks like Z-Trip, Krs-One, Mixmaster Mike, The Beat Junkies, DJ Premier, Slick Rick, Maseo(De La Soul), ZionI, Jazzy Jay, Quest-Love(The Roots), M.F. Doom, A-Trak, Afrika Bambaata, Pete Rock, and a whole bunch more. Not too bad for that tall skinny white boy from Iceland.
