Rudeboy
1. It is in July of the year 2000 as dj Rudeboy (Dave Paalhaar) and his brother (nowadays known as T-Junction) buy themselves a set of turntables and a mixer to try to let a wish come true: becoming well-known dj's throughout the world. After a lot of practicing all of the aspects of dj'ing at home and at the local youthcentre Radar, the promoter of the eastside underground MC Syco was intrigued by the skills of this talent and gave him the opportunity to rock the decks at an Oldschool Madness party.

The Fleshtones
Often tagged as garage-rock revivalists, the Fleshtones mix the fuzz-guitar and Farfisa organ sounds of that genre with rockabilly, '50s and '60s R&B, and surf into a potent retro stew the group likes to call "Super Rock." The group formed in 1976 in Queens with vocalist/keyboardist Peter Zaremba, guitarist Keith Streng, bassist Jan Marek Pukulski, and drummer Bill Milhizer and aimed to return rock and roll to the simplicity and unself-consciousness of the '50s and early-'60s. (The group was often joined on-stage and in the studio by sax player Gordon Spaeth, who passed on in 2005.
