RIPEcast Smoove - Breakfast of Champions '25

This week on the RIPEcast we have Space Cowboy resident DJ rrrus with his recording live from Breakfast of Champions. Recorded at Great Northern January 1, 2025. From rrrus "I am here to light your fuse and warm your shoes.  Bump funk up your trunk and slam jam like a clam.  Damn, I’m hungry.  Let’s go to Breakfast of Champions and feast like beasts on bass so thick it sticks like a brick. Shake it!"

Hello friends! Here’s my set from the 2025 Bottlerock roller rink — a cheeky, slightly shameful ride through bouncy remixes, edits, and mashups. Think of it as one big, extended Rick Roll: full of guilty pleasures, surprise flips, and rollerskating-ready controlled chaos. I had an absolute blast playing, and I can officially check “DJ a roller rink” off the bucket list. Big love to the legends at HUSHconcerts and the Lululemon brand team for creating such a stunning activation! xo, 8b

Danger Muffin and CRANE- what a thrill to kick off our BOC debut with all you beautiful people! A truly incredible event to play, it was a blast to share our music with so many friends! Can't wait for next year! DJ Danger Muffin https://on.soundcloud.com/yPUQs163FSmCvKeA9 CRANE https://on.soundcloud.com/QvX3W4vbpzKGo6zR6

On the RIPEcast this week longtime Space Cowboy Tamo. In her words, "I LOVE New Year's Day & playing at Breakfast of Champions is definitely one of my favorite places to DJ. Enjoy the mix!" XO Tamo

Featured this week another Space Cowboy who brings it. Every. Single. Time. A man who has never missed DJing a single Breakfast of Champions. The one and only Brad Robinson. "It was another great New Year’s Day and the sunshine. Thanks to everyone that came out for Breakfast of Champions this year and those who stayed late to hear me play after the sun went down. Please check out the Sylvan Esso remix that I put together on the first track." -Brad Robinson

Breakfast of Champions is always been a special day of welcoming the new year with new and old friends and seeing our community come together in one place is magical! Although I have taken a step back from DJing and posting mixes, but without fail, BOC inspires me to keep on playing. If you were there with me on the dancefloor, I was seriously soaking in all your vibes... thank you all for making it such a memorable set! Catch me next on 3/22/25 at 7th West in Oakland with Disco Donutz! Find me at IG and FB @djshooey!

On this weeks RIPEcast our good friend from New York @_defkon with a live set on the Mog stage from Breakfast of Champions '25. Link to mix in comments From Defkon - Playing the 25th Anniversary of Breakfast of Champions was an absolute honor. The Space Cowboys have been a huge inspiration in my journey as a DJ, so getting the chance to represent Brooklyn at BOC this year was a dream come true. Sharing the stage with legends like Sporty-O & Thug Shells —who both came out to perform with me—made it even more special. Knowing I was playing for a veteran crowd that’s heard and danced to some of the best breaks out there, I knew I had to bring my A-game. I think I accurately delivered my sound, keeping the energy high and the dance floor moving until the very end. Closing out the legendary MOG Stage alongside my mentors was an unforgettable experience. Huge thanks to DJ Deckard, Rumblemunk, and the entire Space Cowboys crew for welcoming me with open arms and making me feel at home!

This week on the RIPEcast, Space Cowboys welcome back Smoove to the Bay Area. Aloha Funkateers Back in Y2K era San Francisco, there was a trend amongst the uber cool restaurants where - as part of the dining room ambience - you would often find a DJ mixing live during dinner service. It was here, spinning vinyl all night propped up at the end of the bar, in this bastion of late 20th century California fusion cuisine I found my entrance into the fantastical wonderland that is the Bay Area DJ community. And it was here where I first encountered the Space Cowboys. The subsequent years featured a significant increase of the color orange into my wardrobe, Halloween undergrounds, a Unimog, breakbeats (so. Many. Breakz!) renegades in Golden Gate Park, that thing in the desert, decompression/recompression, Love parades, rhinestones, Martha, NewsBreakz, heartbreakz. And yes, a New Year’s Day sunrise party. It was a glorious time to be alive So I think it’s fitting my first time back at BOC in *this many* years was the 25th anniversary. I was hella psyched to be on this years line up because, if I’m being perfectly honest, I have missed you all. Spinning this set was a true joy and it was an honor to be back with the original crew. -Smoove

This week on the RIPEcast we have Space Cowboy resident DJ Workr coming at you from New Year's Day. In his words, "Every Breakfast of Champions I’m invited to play is a special opportunity to showcase my favorite tracks from the past year. This year, I was honored with an afternoon set, which gave me the space to really open up my sound and rock the crowd in a way that felt true to the moment. I’m excited to share this live recording of that set with you, and I hope you can tap into the energy I was laying down. Enjoy the ride!" -WorkR
