DJS & PERFORMERS
Salvation Alley featuring RRS Feed
DJs Raichous (SD), Roza (LA), and Shred One (SF) first connected headlining a collaborative DJ event in Los Angeles, CA in 2009. They instantly vibed and complemented each other’s style on the decks, igniting the spark for a future collaboration. Although residing in different cities, they set out to work together through a tireless series of practice sessions consisting of 3 mixers, 4 turntables, Raichous' swift and funky cuts, Roza’s smooth versatility, and Shred One’s impeccable selection. They eventually created and developed a unique style incorporating classic turntablist techniques using classic and modern sounds such as soul, hip hop, boogie, disco, funk, and uptempo beats, the foundation for their new group RRS Feed.
Legends Lounge featuring Tribe of Kings
Tribe of Kings is San Diego's premier reggae sound system. Established in 1997, Tribe of Kings has been hosting their own events, bringing the best in Roots and Culture Reggae and Dancehall to the people for over 10 years. Since their inception, they have played across many countries along with big reggae artists such as original Wailers, Collie Buddz, Sister Nancy, Khari Kill, Barrington Levy, Beres Hammond, Mikey Dread, Junior Reid, Abyssinians, Ranking Joe, Shinehead, Carlton Livingston, and Eek-a-Mouse, as well as festivals like Bob Marley Day, and Sierra Nevada World Music Festival. The Block Party is honored to have the legendary sound system gracing the Legends Lounge for the Holiday Block Party.
Main Stage featuring MindzAlike
Very few DJ crews stay close to the heart of San Diego like MindzAlike. Paying tribute to the days of mobile DJ crews in the 80's and early 90's, this band of DJs bonded originally as friends, then as the go-to crew for high school dances, weddings, and backyard boogies. MindzAlike has since grown alongside the city that made them. Currently the crew is making waves in nightlife holding residencies at Confidential, Thin/Onyx, The Office, 923 Bar as well is in Los Angeles at Bar Delux and Shortstop. This Block Party, DJs Mark Marcelo, Julz, and Edroc will feature a 4-turntable mash of classic party music representing years of dance-floor dedication to America's finest city.
