SUCKAHOUSE DJs
BANGIN/ELECTRO :: FLAIR/503 CREW :: PORTLAND, OR
Supporters of, and nothing but, House music - Suckahouse DJ's have made a name for themself in short time. After many local appearences, Freddy The Funkster and DJ Stu have already headlined out of state - and as far away as Texas!
OFFLINE
HOUSE/Electro/Progressive :: W&F :: PORTLAND, OR
As Portland's newest DJ and W&F's youngest member, Offline is coming out of the gates fast. After years of training, he earned his first gig at the legendary DEVOTION nightclub where he was recieved with great response. His second show had him playing with Check 6, reffered to by many as a Northwest Icon. Third times a charm, as Offline will take to the mainstage again for the masses. Enjoy!
DUBBZ
FUNKY/FRACTURED HOUSE :: W&F :: PORTLAND, OR
Dubbz is surely our most capable force when it comes to the sneak attack. He has remained quite in his many years of playing, lying dormant through of Portland's ups and downs. Then he snuck up on everyone at RELEASE when he commanded attention at the mainstage for a vass majority of his set. His performance was so powerful, he nearly cleared the rest of the building. Breaks, House, Progressive.... It doesn't matter, Dubbz is here to make you move!
WIGGLES
HOUSE :: KLUBSTOMPERS/DJWIGGLES.COM :: PORTLAND, OR
“Over the years I have experienced many ups and downs in the Portland scene. One thing that has always remained constant is the love I have for our community, our family, and our scene. Portland’s dance culture has changed my life and helped mold me to be the person I am today. The love and support my career has gotten throughout this scene is overwhelming and, to-say-the-least, humbling. It is an honor to be able to return this support by providing Portland with events like BOUNCE, FOR THE LOVE, LOVE AFFAIR, FAMILY CIRCUS, WHITE ON, RELEASE and now, DANCE OF THE DEAD!
Area 2: THE GRAVEYARD
MECHWARRIOR
DnB :: BARCODE RECORDS/FREAK/NIGHTFALL RECORDS :: CANADA/AUSTRALIA
DJ Mechwarrior, aka Rohan Bell has been smashing dancefloors from Sydney to Seattle with his deep, dark, thugged-out beats since 1998.
Mechwarrior's early years were filled with music. After a few years of religiously taping underground dance music radio shows and trading them with friends Bell attended his first illegal warehouse party, and after being passed a DJ Hype mix tape in 1996, his journey was clear.
His crates began to fill with as much Drum 'n' Bass as he could afford. Amassing an impressive battalion of tunes, Mechwarrior played throughout Sydney and the East Coast as the bookings rolled in, demonstrating his innate talent for rocking the floor. Often billed at underground parties, he also DJed alongside international heavyweights like Laidback, Konflict, Paul Arnold and the Usual Suspects. One fateful night, he decided to hit a Junglepunks party in the Blue Mountains. 'We rocked up in my car and they were just finishing setting up', Bell says. 'I asked half jokingly if they needed any extra DJs that night as I had records with me. To my surprise they
said I could open!' Manson and Speaka Freaka, Junglepunks promoters and two of Sydney's sickest techno DJs recognised his skills behind the decks and although a staunchly techno crew, took Mechwarrior on as their sole DnB resident. In the years to come he developed a cult following in the Sydney underground scene, bursting eardrums with acid techno legends like Chris and Julian Liberator and D.a.ve. the Drummer as well as technocrats Oliver Ho and the Advent. In 2002,
Mechwarrior moved to Vancouver - the capital of western Canadian D&B was in for some solid Sydney dancefloor devastation as Mech supported
Klute, Suv, John Rolodex, Dieselboy, Sage, Photek, Gridlok, Mayhem, Evol Intent, Reid Speed, Ray Keith, T.C. Izlam and A-Sides in Toronto, Vancouver and Seattle. He soon linked up with Canadian producer Jeff
Malcolm(Psidream) and collaborated on stellar releases
Stitches(Barcode) and Pressure Point(Back to the Void EP, Renegade Hardware), tunes rinsed by A-Sides, Stakka, Trace, Tech Itch, Loxy and Skynet to name a few. Recently linking with Metalheadz' rudeboy John
Rolodex, the trio hammered out 'Personal Demons', forthcoming on Dylans 'Freak' imprint. Bell is now focusing on solo work, with some remixes in the pipeline for A-sides and Resound. With his Australian homecoming tour about to kick off, get ready for some slammin' DnB and badass mixing from master of the dark arts, DJ Mechwarrior….
