about GRANDMASTER FLASH
http://www.grandmasterflash.com

During Hip-Hop's 30yr+ history, few names have become as well known to music lovers across the globe as that of DJ GRANDMASTER FLASH.

Not only is he the pioneer responsible for the musical genre called Hip-Hop, but his use of the turntables made him the first dj to play the turntables as a musical instrument, thus helping to elevate the status of the dj to a masterful, artistic position.

These are some of the hallmarks of a career which has extended from the Bronx in the early 1970s to all corners of the globe into the 21st Century. By 1971, Flash was inventing and demonstrating innovative dj techniques with turntables thus later claiming the turntables to be an instrument..

The invention and technique of djing that Flash displayed and changed the way djs played forever was "Cuttin". This is when the dj literally places their hand on the embodiment of the vinyl, or middle section of the record, and proceed to move or rub the material in a backward or forward motion in conjunction with their fingers on the dj mixer in a left to right, or right to left lateral movement.

In the late 70's, Flash took his inventions to another level, by recruiting emcee's to rap over his music. The unity later became worldly known as "Grandmaster Flash and the Furious Five". Their reputation grew around Flash's unrivaled DJ skills and the group's blending and trading off lyrics. Flash also gained notice for the visually dynamic and acrobatic way he could spin and cut records using his feet, toes and elbows. Blondie immortalized Flash in the 1980 hit "Rapture": "Flash is fast, Flash is cool!"

From the 80's to the present, Flash has recorded many albums, produced numerous hits, performed so many shows, and has been recognized and awarded worldwide as Hip-Hop went from something that was thought to be a fad to being music's biggest genre and business. BET honored him with the first ever Hip Hop Icon Award in 2006. In March '07, Grandmaster Flash was the first dj to ever be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall of Fame. Right now, he is still touring worldwide; working on a new album entitled: "The Bridge"; completed a book on his memoirs entitled: "The Adventures Of Grandmaster Flash: My Life My Beats". When you read the book, you will know that according to Flash.........the beat don't stop.

Salah satu Indonesia's best DJ (yg pernah dapet Best DJ and Lifetime Award) bilang ke gue bahwa, Grandmaster Flash adalah one of his music heroes, dia ngga mungkin jadi DJ kalo bukan gara2 dia dulu nonton film dan baca ttg si Grandmaster ini jaman 80s/90s dulu. Dan dia juga bilang sayang banget kalo teman2 DJs di sini ngga sadar berapa pentingnya event ini.
