Great Scott, I have done it! I have finally invented something that actually works! Ever since that fateful day in '55, I've dreamed of this finally happening! Running off the equivalency of a bolt of lightning, precisely 1.21 Jiggawatts of funk, I have created a time machine with style - DeLorean style. If my calculations are correct, when this baby hits
88 miles per hour your gonna see some serious @&$%!! A night when the past, present, and future come together for one night of celebrated Dance Music Culture. Yes!! I, Dr. Emmett Brown and Purple Monkey Productions, have just created....
Impact has been active as a hardcore music producer since 1996, making his debut in the scene with a release on Go Mental Records, entitled 'Don’t Cry' and ‘Fine Night’. This sold about 1000 copies, and marked the start of a production career that has spanned many releases, under various labels and pseudonyms. He started producing as a way of actively
furthering his career as a DJ but, over the years, it progressed from a hobby to become a career. Since 1996 he has produced and engineered tracks with many established hardcore producers, including Hixxy, Kevin Energy, Fade and Sharkey. He was noticed within the scene for his consistently high production quality, and also for the numerous hardcore
anthems he has produced, including 'Power of Dreams' and 'Say It Again'.
Impact owns three record labels; Impulse, FBI and his latest venture, in collaboration with Resist, Infexious Audio. Many of his tracks have appeared on successful albums worldwide, including Moonshine's (USA) 'Happy 2 B Hardcore' series, Toshiba - EMI's (Japan) 'Dancemania' series and Resist’s world famous Bonkers series. Along with his own label
productions, he has worked for a number of other labels within the scene including: Nu Energy, Raverbaby, Digital Beatz, Electronic, HCC, Relentless, Hech-Tech, HTSE, Camel Records, Future Dance, Rave N’ Beats, Bedlam and Go Mental. As a DJ he has played at most of the major events across the UK and has recently toured Australia, playing at Helter Skelter
in front of 3,000 people. Impact is now a regular name on the UK hardcore scene and is considered to be one of the industry’s leading producers and DJs.

Wolfgang Gartner
In the often serious world of dance music, it’s good to see somebody still having a bit of fun. Meet Wolfgang Gartner, aka Joey Youngman. At first glance the name Wolfgang Gartner is a fairly recent blip on dance music’s collective radar, but dig a little deeper and you’ll discover a robust discography, amassed by a seasoned veteran of the music
industry.
Currently residing in Austin, Texas, this 26-year-old California transplant has been producing dance music since he was 11 years old. While most kids were playing Nintendo and after-school sports, Youngman was syncing a drum machine to a keyboard and teaching himself to make tracks. His career didn’t hit center stage until 2003 however, when after a
decade of pounding on the industry’s door he landed his first big break and began putting out records.
The early years of Youngman’s discography boasted releases and remixes on dozens of respected house labels like Tango, Om Records, Naked Music, Doubledown, and his own imprints; Fetish Recordings & Jackin Tracks. He donned a slew of production aliases including Mario Fabriani, White Collar Criminals, Frequent Fliers, and a few other colorful guises
that helped to spice up an exceedingly frequent release schedule.
In 2004, Youngman signed onto the esteemed Blue Collar Entertainment roster and started focusing more time on his other passion: DJ’ing. The move sparked a series of global tours and increased his exposure to audiences around the world. To date, Joey Youngman has performed on every continent except Antarctica (but if you put a club on a glacier he’d
play there too!). From Shindig Newcastle to Pacha Sao Paulo to Japan, Russia, and Ibiza, the air miles have stacked up along-side his innate ability to work a dancefloor.
2007 marked a major step in Youngman’s career with the introduction of his new moniker: Wolfgang Gartner. The new name was created to explore a new sound, without feeling confined to the musical boundaries of his previous projects. “I was getting bored with house, with that whole sound,” he says. “I basically hadn’t evolved musically since the late
90's and had been rehashing the same ideas over and over. Something just snapped and I decided it was time for a complete change.”
It was apparent from the first Wolfgang Gartner release that Youngman was onto something big. Within 6 months of his first outing on Om Records, Wolfgang Gartner had landed 2 top-10 singles on Beatport.com’s sales chart (a high honor in the dance music world), a Pete Tong “essential new tune of the week” on BBC’s Radio 1, and a plethora of DJ support
and accolades within the industry. It was early 2008 when Youngman made the decision to pursue the Wolfgang Gartner project full-time. “It’s so hard to do 2 things really well at the same time,” he says. “I realized that I had to pick something and stick to it. So I decided that this new style is the direction I want to go, and to focus all my time
and energy on Wolfgang Gartner.”

PURPLE MONKEY PRODUCTIONS IS PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THAT @ FLUX CAPACITOR THERE WILL NOW BE.....
ArcAttack will be making SEVERAL performances during the night!!! They will be using 2x High Voltage SINGING Tesla Coils, Robotic Drumsets & MORE!!!!!!!!
EXPERIENCE HALF A MILLION VOLTS OF MUSICAL ELECTRICITY!!!!!
Creators of the original Singing Tesla Coils, the crew of ArcAttack uses high tech wizardry to present music in a whole new light.
ArcAttack employs a unique DJ set up of their own creation (an HVDJ set up) to generate an 'electrifying' audio visual performance. The HVDJ pumps music through a PA System while two specially designed DRSSTC's (Dual-Resonant Solid State Tesla Coils) act as separate synchronized instruments.
These high tech machines produce an electrical arc similar to a continuous lightning bolt which put out a crisply distorted square wave sound reminiscent of the early days of synthesizers. The music consists of original highly dance-able electronic compositions that sometimes incorporates themes or dub of popular songs.
Joe DiPrima and Oliver Greaves are the masterminds behind the design and construction of the Tesla Coils while the music is developed by John DiPrima and Tony Smith.
When brainstorming the theme for this event, we discussed that we wanted a literal "blast-to-the-past" feeling when you stepped into the venue - so we worked to get one of the most creative line-ups full of talented local DJs playing choons from 2000 and before. We also knew we wanted to have some RAD decorations. One of us brought up that we should get an actual BTTF DeLorean to show up. You know, Mr. Fusion and all.. We laughed, jokingly, but then we realized that this was something we had to make happen, no matter what... AND WE DID!!!
WE ARE INCREDIBLY EXCITED TO ANNOUNCE THAT THERE WILL BE A
BACK TO THE FUTURE DELOREAN AT FLUX CAPACITOR!!!
