Teeko’s performance last week on REVOLT’s “1s and Tuesday” was truly one-of-a-kind. Joined by a member of his own electronic funk band B. Bravo, the San Francisco DJ/producer delivered three-and-a-half minutes of turntablism meshed with synthesizer funk. Props to Teeko for thinking outside the box and bringing a different vibe to the segment.
Last year, Teeko was featured in DJcity’s San Francisco edition of the “Cutting Room” featuring fellow Bay Area turntablists Shortkut, J. Espinosa, Miles Medina, and Primo.
“1s and Tuesday” is a weekly segment curated by DJcity which showcases turntablists. Previous guests include DJ QBert, Chris Karns, Jayceeoh, Four Color Zack, DJ Spider, DJ Dynamix, Miles Medina and others. Watch “1s and Tuesday” every week at 2pm and 5pm PST.
