=========// A NEW YEARS REZOLUTION 2//===============
"Turning back the Clock":
"Back in the days when kids were mack daddy's, striped Lee jeans, Playboy's and Caddy's" the sounds of the American underground machine were starting to take shape. Before the first mix, the first scratch, and first backspin, there was The Sugarhill Gang. Pioneers from the the concrete jungle, unknowingly ready to help change the course of American music history. The birth of hip-hop saw the death of disco, and the record became more than a recording, it became a tool. Fast forward to the late 80's, the drums began beating in the New York underground once again, and Frankie Bones would emerge. A new era begins, highlighted by super-clubs like NASA, and transplants like DB. Rave culture sweeps thru urbania like its predecessor hip hop, making the underground breathe once again. Those times are gone, but the memories live on in the ears, hearts and souls of us all. So be ready to take a trip back, to a time when there was only one school, and the sounds of the underground were fresh and new. Join us as we rewind the clock to many times of the past, and let True Productions launch you into the New Year, consider time RESOLVED....
// MAIN ROOM:======================================
THE SUGARHILL GANG (3:00-3:45)
(Sugarhill Records) NYC
*TURNING BACK THE CLOCK- ALL 6 OF THE ORIGINATORS OF HIP HOP MUSIC, LIVE!*
Formed in New Jersey in 1979, the Sugarhill Gang is arguably the first professional rap group in history, coining (or at least popularizing) the term "hip hop" in their smash 1979 single "Rapper's Delight." Comprising rappers Master Gee, Wonder Mike and Big Bank Hank, the Sugarhill Gang was brought together by Sugarhill Records founder Sylvia Robinson, who saw a market for a record of music like that performed by amateur DJs and MCs at Bronx block parties. Almost instantly after the first radio play of “Rapper’s Delight” the song began selling thousands of copies daily. Quickly rising to No. 4 on the charts, the song broke the ice for hip-hop music and took it from the streets to a global audience. Sugarhill Gang quickly released many more hits to help define the culture like “Break Dance-Electric Boogie” and “8th Wonder.” There releases jump started Sugarhill Records and later paved the way for hip hop icons Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Melle Mel, and many more of hip hops early pioneers. (Sugar Hill Gang >> "Our New Year's Rezolution is to bring you the “Hip hop the hippie the hippie to the hip hip hop, a you don’t stop rock it out baby bubbah to the boogie da bang bang the boogie to the boogie da beat”)
SPACEMEN (12:30-1:30)
*LIVE - Trance & Breaks Performance *
(Inner Vision Music / http://www.spacemen.us) FL
Each member of SPACEMEN has a unique design imprinted on their face. Each specific once with the power to reach out and lure the listener into the peaceful sounds of their identities. If you have seen ANY performances by these Artists, you will understand exactly what sets these beings apart from the rest. When their show commences, you are immediately abducted; and held captive for a full hour! You are now completely under their control. The intensity builds and builds just to the point of orgasm, and then gets smoothed out one last time before these three extra-terrestrials drop the bomb! The energy level they bring to the floor is PHENOMENAL. With sound waves pulsating into your body from all around, SPACEMEN definitely create a euphoric experience for all who wish to experience it. SPACEMEN chose to imprint their first crop circles in the U.S. Dance Scene from an entity far and beyond our wildest imaginations (not to mention our current advancement). SPACEMEN have also landed at major festival events all over the nation such as Ultra Music Festival during Winter Music Conference in Miami.

"Turning back the Clock":
"Back in the days when kids were mack daddy's, striped Lee jeans, Playboy's and Caddy's" the sounds of the American underground machine were starting to take shape. Before the first mix, the first scratch, and first backspin, there was The Sugarhill Gang. Pioneers from the the concrete jungle, unknowingly ready to help change the course of American music history. The birth of hip-hop saw the death of disco, and the record became more than a recording, it became a tool. Fast forward to the late 80's, the drums began beating in the New York underground once again, and Frankie Bones would emerge. A new era begins, highlighted by super-clubs like NASA, and transplants like DB. Rave culture sweeps thru urbania like its predecessor hip hop, making the underground breathe once again. Those times are gone, but the memories live on in the ears, hearts and souls of us all. So be ready to take a trip back, to a time when there was only one school, and the sounds of the underground were fresh and new. Join us as we rewind the clock to many times of the past, and let True Productions launch you into the New Year, consider time RESOLVED....

THE SUGARHILL GANG (3:00-3:45)
(Sugarhill Records) NYC
*TURNING BACK THE CLOCK- ALL 6 OF THE ORIGINATORS OF HIP HOP MUSIC, LIVE!*
Formed in New Jersey in 1979, the Sugarhill Gang is arguably the first professional rap group in history, coining (or at least popularizing) the term "hip hop" in their smash 1979 single "Rapper's Delight." Comprising rappers Master Gee, Wonder Mike and Big Bank Hank, the Sugarhill Gang was brought together by Sugarhill Records founder Sylvia Robinson, who saw a market for a record of music like that performed by amateur DJs and MCs at Bronx block parties. Almost instantly after the first radio play of “Rapper’s Delight” the song began selling thousands of copies daily. Quickly rising to No. 4 on the charts, the song broke the ice for hip-hop music and took it from the streets to a global audience. Sugarhill Gang quickly released many more hits to help define the culture like “Break Dance-Electric Boogie” and “8th Wonder.” There releases jump started Sugarhill Records and later paved the way for hip hop icons Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five, Melle Mel, and many more of hip hops early pioneers.
