"Funk and Disco for Santa" mix from 8ball 3
Here’s a small holiday present from me, and you don’t have to wait until tomorrow to listen. It’s a lot of new school funk, a bit of old school house, and some disco—stuff you don’t hear out at parties all that often, but when you do, you think, “Aw yeah, make some room on the dance floor.” Or maybe you don’t, what the hell do I know.
Anyway, I know it’s cliche, but “Happy Holidays!”

How to survive New Year's 2010, plus Upcoming Events, and New Music
Hello Friendly Person:
When it comes to New Year’s 2010, you got 2 choices in how you can make it through the party. If you think you have plenty of choices you are wrong. You don’t. This year you are looking down the long and mighty barrel of a 10th anniversary Breakfast of Champions that lands on a freakin’ Friday! That’s the VERY BEGINNING of what’s bound to be a legendary weekend, so I’m telling you: there are 2 choices. If you want to make it through New Year’s 201, you either go Mentat or you go Sex Tape.
Mentats are those brainy dudes from Frank Herbet’s Dune. They’re the samurais of Thought. Their brains are so buff that all they have to do is WILL themselves to know something and, poof, they know it! If you were waiting for MUNI, and a Mentat was next to you, you wouldn’t have to step out in the street to squit for the next bus. You’d just go, “Hey, Mentat dude. When’s the next bus?” And he’d say, “In seven-minutes, twenty-two-seconds, eight-hundreths of a millisecond, fourteen nanoseconds, sixtillion nippleseconds, etc.” At Breakfast of Champions, the first thing the Mentat does when he shows up is receit the Mentat Mantra:
“It is by will alone I set my mind in motion. It is by the juice of sapho that thoughts acquire speed, the lips acquire stains, the stains become a warning. It is by will alone I set my mind in motion.”
I don’t know what “sapho” is, but I’m sure it’s illegal, so keep it on the DL. Between the sapho and his Mantra, that fucking Mentat is now ready to party his ass off for the next 3 days. Because of his super thinking, he isn’t going to get tired, he won’t need disco naps, he will pound any cocktail or shot travels within arm’s reach, and he will continually dance. Even during the breakdowns, that Mentat will be a dancing fool. It’s mind over matter – that’s the Mentat way – and that is why going Mentat is one of your options for making it through New Year’s this year.
Your other option: go Sex Tape. It’s a little like going Full-Retard, but with more drugs and less sympathy. For some, Sex Tape is a way of life. It’s like a state of Zen. You’re mind is so empty of shame or consequence that when life presents you with an opportunity to do something really retarded, you seize that opportunity without so much as an, “only if you promise you won’t put this on YouTube.” When you blank our mind in this fashion, you’re primed for survival at Breakfast of Champions. Nothing you do will matter except having fun. You’ll ignore the cameras, the shocked and appalled stares of your friends, as you pull down your pants and suck down a balloon of nitrous and flop on the danceloor like a fish to the bassline. Oral sex at the bar in front of all your friends? Why not! Sharted your pants? Who needs underwear anyway! Doesn’t that sound fun?!
So, there’s are your options. You dedicate yourself to survival through Power of the Mind, or you become the mental equivalent of a comatose chihuahua and succumb to the pleasures of unabashed stupidity. What you don’t want to do is try a little of both. When you do that, it’s like Mr. Miyagi says:
“Walk on road, hm? Walk left side, safe. Walk right side, safe. Walk middle, sooner or later.
XO, 8

It all started down by the water, off a small pier with a small crew who didn’t want to compete with the masses on NYE. Ten years later, thousands of dancers and DJs have made the annual trek to the Space Cowboy’s Breakfast of Champions.
This epic event has reached a new milestone. Ten years at $10. We’ve never charged more, and this year is no different. We are moving the party to Kelly’s Mission Rock. Back on the water, sunrise to sunset.

Live from Ghost Ship, Episode 4: H8ball
We have a little Thanksgiving treat for you, Friendly Person. The latest installment of the Ghost Ship mixes is from yours truly, 8ball, and lemme tell you, this mix is going to be the perfect compliment for your holiday dining. I don’t want to oversell this, but I think it’s fair to say that if you download this mix and drop it on mom and pop’s stereo at dinner tomorrow you will definitely get their attention. Maybe even in a good way!
I know there are a lot of rumors out that about 8ball, and it’s sometimes hard to know what to believe, how to separate the truth from the truthy. So, I’ll take this moment to set the record straight. Yes, I am the longest serving member of Space Cowboys. No, my DJ name is not a drug reference. Yes, it does seem a lot like a drug reference, but I swear it’s not. No, the guy who tried to burn the man a few years back wasn’t listening to Deckless Wonder vol. 3 on his iPod moments before he did it. Yes, I sharted at BoC and had to play my set and hang out for the rest of the party commando-style. And no, I don’t patrol the crime-ridden streets of San Francisco dolling out justice wearing a mask, a cape, and shirt cocking.
Now, where was I… Oh yeah. Here’s my Ghost Ship set. I went with breaks for this party, mainly because it’d been a while since I played a breaksy set. I had a strategy: since the party was called Ghost Ship I had to play “I’m On a Boat” and since it was Halloween I had to play “Thriller”. And I played some other stuff, because if I’d just played those 2 songs for the full hour it might’ve been a little weird.

New music from H8ball - Sunless SF Summer Dubstep Mix for a cloudy June! 6
Here’s my last, a dark and bottom-heavy mix that’s perfect for winter weather or in this case, summer weather in San Francisco. Recommended use for this one is to drop it in your iPod to use as a soundtrack while walking around in this gloomy, over cast weather.
And before you ask—Yes, Butthole Surfers counts as dubstep. Because I say so.
