Legendary godfather of the block party, pioneer of electro-funk, and originator of the Universal Zulu Nation, Afrika Bambaataa lends his guidance to those still "looking for the perfect beat" at this new weekly residency. Personally connected to nearly every break, beat, and funk record that's made crate-diggers salivate and B-boys twitch since the birth of hip-hop, Bam continues to spin the tracks he's helped turn into classics — alongside some surprising selections of more recent dance-floor fame. FUN's Eamon Harkin and Negroclash's DJ Lindsey round out the funk with house, techno, and B'more cuts.
