GHETTOBLASTERSOUNDSYSTEM in cooperation with PARFUM DE BOEM BOEM presents BLOCKPARTY ON THE DEMOLITION YARD
Bringing the massive soundsystem to the constructionsite, the Hoogstraat will be transformed into a blockparty of MAJOR proportions. From 12:00 till 18:00 the ghettoblastersoundsystem will be providing the soundtrack to the place where the Rottanova building will be build. Paying respect to the old skool blockparty feeling as well as the sound of today, everything can be expected from this crew. Hiphop, dancehall, grime, booty, electro, dub, baltimore, funk, rockbaile funk. Inviting a few of their friends behind the decks they suggest you do the same and join in for a legendary experience just waiting to happen. If by any chance you missed this invite they”ll make sure you’ll hear the sound when shopping at the koopgoot. HOLLER!
You know the deal, the weekend starts here. You and your friends are all there, gathering around the Ghettoblaster. Let the Ghettoblaster boys fight about which records to play and you dance like there is no tomorow. Show everybody your skills, your new sneakers and outfit. Wear your sunglasses at night, don’t be scared just do what you like!
We kickoff around 2300 with some warm jazz breaks so come early if you don’t want to miss it.
Still in high places after rockin’ the LOWLANDS festival, GHETTOBLASTER would like to invite you to their somewhat more intimate monthly gig at Rotown this friday.
This official kick off for the weekend, again holds a shitload of hiphop, grime, baltimore, breaks, funk, dancehall, electro, rock and reggae. In random order. Next to the stack of records they will bring a pile of the handprinted T-shirts with the GHETTOBLASTER drawing by Deborah vd Schaaf in a 60/60 limited edition. Get them at the dj kit.
If you’re , not unlike dj’s Beatnologic, Van Rippendael and rednas_audio, down for whatever I suggest you join the lads for some nice musical entertainment this friday. Starting at 23:00.
Ignoring all wheater forecasts, the LOWLANDS festival baded in sun. And good music. And vibes.
Playing the LOWLANDS festival was a dream come true. Say the boys after playing their 9 hour set at LOWLANDS groovetube. Starting at 16:00 the place slowly filled up with hung-over visitors to be fully packedduring their second set from 24:00 – 04:30.
With the groovetube holding up to a 3000 peeps, a mc raising eyebrows by welcoming people to Biddingveen [?], 3 dj’s trying to play every record they carried, and a crowd bringing so much positive energy, the groovetube on saturday was a truly magical experience. Thanks for turning this night into something unforgettable.
Check out foto and film footage here if you want to relive a little bit of LOWLANDS or have difficulties remembering your whereabouts that specific saturday.. Pictures were taken by Emmelien de Mooij, Jeroen Veenstra and Donica Buisman. Big up!
Lowlands Festival 2008/ groovetube sat 13:00 – 04:00 Biddinghuizen, Flevoland
GHETTOBLASTER live at LowLands 2008! *&^%$@
For the first time dj’s Beatnologic, Van Rippendael and rednas_audio will play at the LowLands Festival. Seems like an awful lot of faith the organization is giving the three by putting them behind the controls of the soundsystem belonging to the groovetube. Being the devoted EQ fiddlers they are, this should make for some nice entertainment.
By telling you to expect the unexpected I wouldn’t know myself what to do exactly so let’s cut to the chase and give some clues. Pretty good chance you’ll be hearing some dancehall, hiphop, funk, electronica, baile funk, rock, baltimore, reggae , electro, grime and jazz. During a 9 hour set [!] there should be more than enough room for some nice styleblending, scratching and back-to-back-action.
When once asked what their recepy for rocking crowds was, they answered their modus operandi is to keep up with the average drinking behaviour of the audience. This recepy only turned bad once when playing for a crowd consisting of AA-members celebrating their 1 year anniversary. That’s all they wanted to say about the matter.
Looking forward to the LowLands Festival they handprinted T-shirts with the GHETTOBLASTER drawing by Deborah vd Schaaf in a 60/60 limited edition. Yes they’ll be giving them away. Some! I suggest you hit the stage early or take it easy and buy one later. They will play two sets from 13:00-19:00 hours and 24:00-04:00 hours. Check www.lowlands.nl for additional info on the festival.

You know the deal, the weekend starts here. You and your friends are all there, gathering around the Ghettoblaster. Let the Ghettoblaster boys fight about which records to play and you dance like there is no tomorow. Show everybody your skills, your new sneakers and outfit. Wear your sunglasses at night, don’t be scared just do what you like!
