RIPLEY's special blend of border-busting booty bounce has stormed dancefloors on from Boston to Brooklyn to Bow to Brussels to Belgrade to Berlin to Brisbane -- and that's just the Bs. All kinds all together get down and get up when RIPLEY brings the global ruckus.
Her wreckstepping sets slice through genres like dubstep, street bass, 2step, kuduro, juke, cumbia, sissy bounce, tribal guarachero, UK funky, hiphop, moombahcore, jungle, dancehall, breakcore, d'n'b, glitched-out breaks, bhangra and dub, sprouting new life on the dancefloor. RIPLEY's been voted "Best Dance DJ 2009" by the SF Bay Guardian Readers' poll, the monthly she co-founded, SURYA DUB, won "Best Club Night 2008" in the same poll. Listen to some of her astonishing mixes here: soundcloud.com/ripley.
When not slinging basslines and casting breakbeats live or for her many mixes, RIPLEY tugs at the threads of colonial power underlying copyright law, technology and music for her PhD at UC Berkeley Law School. Some of her thoughts can be found at djripley.blogspot.com.
Support comes from two of Köln's very own bass music masters: WADADDA and DESMOND DENKER, guaranteeing your minds and feet a very special and unique night, from beginning to end.
