creativity and diversity for all musical tastes

Block Party, was formed in the late 80s by a collection of young DJ’s coming together for the love of music. GT Flex is not just a sound. It is a movement, controlled by DJ’s and MC’s, who take people on a musical journey of all tastes with their diverse selection of beats and rhymes.

Block Party was originally started by Music Incorporated sound system which morphed into GT Flex Roadshow well over 30 years ago. With a history of getting re-invented on a year-to-year basis, Block Party is considered to be one of the most thrilling sound system locations at Carnival.  This is where you will find a diverse range of party and radio DJ’s, both male and female, along with the young and the old representing the diverse nature of carnival at it's best.

Managed by owner/operator Greg Thomas, GT Flex performed at their first carnival in 1986. Later in the mid-nineties, the movement was joined by the Mahem Crew, KC and most recently by DJ Krisis and DJ Ska (the best in the West!). 

Greg tells us that:
"Even though every other crew or DJ may have the same records, the GT Flex Roadshow collective stamp is always guaranteed to be unique, direct and different".

The GT Flex crew oozes creativity and diversity in keeping the carnival spirit alive -  which helps in setting them apart from other sounds systems. The fusion between the two generations of sound systems in their history explains the diversity of crew. It may have been the original Music Incorporated soundsystem that built the foundations but rest assured that GT Flex and Block Party is now more established than ever and creating new boundaries in this digital age……..

If you have never been to a Block Party set before, come and witness the atmosphere for yourself. It's a great place to sample anything from Rare Groove, 80’s Soul, Jungle, R’n’B, 90’s Hip Hop, Dubplates, Dancehall and the Slow Jamz that always lock down the street.
