RJD2 w/Busdriver @ Webster Hall - Friday - 4/13

He’s not a club dj, but knows how to rock a party. With his timely scratching, and versatile technique, RJD2 has become something like a phenomenon in underground hip-hop. At the same time, his 2004 solo album, “Since We Last Spoke,” showcases his aptitude as an indie-electronic producer. But it is essentially the way in which he combines scratched-up funk 45s from the 70’s with modern digital effects that gives him his signature style. Just go see for yourself what he does with merely a sampler, two turntables and a crate of choice records. Like Dangermouse, RJD2 is an auteur producer who is currently getting more love in the mainstream, despite his recent decision to sign to the independent label, XL Recordings. Now is your chance to witness him live at Webster Hall performing alongside the lyrically talented rapper Busdriver.
