Φωτογραφία του μουσικού Grandmaster Flash

One of hip-hop’s original innovators, a cultural force and the voice of an entire generation of the ‘70s hip-hop pioneers, Grandmaster Flash is landing to the SNFCC with an electric live show.

For many, Grandmaster Flash is the international face of hip-hop and turntablism around the world, ever since he pioneered the art of mixing. Grandmaster Flash is the man who invented the cue button, as well as techniques like backspins, scratching and punch phrasing, thus changing the face of DJing forever.

Immortalized by Blondie and feted by the hip-hop cognoscenti, Grandmaster Flash is the man who turned the humble record deck into an instrument as potent as the piano or guitar. He was the first DJ to put out a rap record and in Adventures On The Wheels Of Steel, he created an aural template that let the world into the secrets of the New York ghettos. Years later - on top of no less than 11 studio albums - his biggest selling, multi-platinum hit singles such as “White Lines”, “The Message” and “Flash To The Beat” still resonate today.
