Throughout the ages mankind has moved and adapted to the changing world all the while changing the world around them. Learning how to tune into the universe man has managed to make conscious leaps in evolution. These leaps have left us with abilities setting us apart from other life on this planet. These traits include spoken language, advance visual recognition, and that which we take most for granted, a sense of rhythm. Throughout history the first to make advances are often cast out by society and referred to as freaks only to be respected and admired by later generations. As technology and the ability to obtain information increases at an ever quickening pace, we must prepare ourselves to once again make an evolutionary jump. One year ago we gathered to bring ourselves in line with the cosmic rhythms and sent a message out into the universe that we are ready to advance. Now we come together to receive the response.

ELECTRIC SKYCHURCH
http://www.skychurch.com James Lumb created Electric Skychurch as a vehicle for his imaginative, groundbreaking music in 1991. In '93 Skychurch rose up in the LA scene. James was throwing parties at his home in Silverlake, a LA neighborhood teeming with musicians, filmmakers and artists. The late-night events took off, eventually moving from LA to the Mojave Desert, where the parties grew into large monthly gatherings. Within a year, the gatherings exploded to include thousands of people and seeded the notorious “Desert Massive” movement that swept through the American West. During this period Lumb penned "Deus", a song that would come to be recognized as the earliest incarnation of the "West Coast" trance sound. Burgeoning Moonshine Music signed Skychurch in 1994 and released "Deus" and another single, "Creation", followed in 1995 by Skychurch's first full-length ensemble LP, "knowoneness." During the “knowoneness” sessions, James met Roxanne Morganstern. They were friends for a year before she finally auditioned for a spot in the band. Impressed with her unique and powerful talent, James immediately brought her into the project and, even though it shocked his band mates, shared the spotlight with her the very next week in front of 5,000 fans. The vocal chemistry worked. Fans loved it. They created a magical live show, which instantly catapulted them even further into the spotlight. After playing hundreds of concerts and festivals that drew crowds in excess of 80,000, Electric Skychurch built a solid grassroots following. During the long tour, James and Roxanne were filmed by director John Reese for interviews that became part of the feature documentary "Better Living Through Circuitry," giving the world a refreshingly honest portrait of the producer and his band mates. The film remains popular and continues to run on the major cable networks worldwide, and has drawn mainstream fans of all ages to the band. Infected Mushroom http://infected.co.il/ Infected Mushroom is an Israeli psychedelic trance duo which has attained significant popularity from the late 1990s to the present time. Formed by Erez Aizen and Amit Duvdevani (also known as Duvdev) in the city of Haifa, located in the northern parts of Israel, the duo has garnered a large international fanbase. Infected Mushroom are known for their consistent sonic evolution exemplified by the subsequent albums The Gathering (1999), Classical Mushroom (2000), BP Empire (2001), Converting Vegetarians (2003) and the recently released IM The Supervisor (2004). John B http://www.beta-recordings.co.uk/ If you haven’t come across John B in one of his many musical guises over the past decade, where have you been? Classically trained at a young age, this British superproducer has gone on to become one of the most eclectic and unique individuals working within elec- tronic music today. Consistently escaping categorization, John’s genre-defying catalogue spans the worlds of Electro, Trance and Drum & Bass, and a few other spaces across the bpm spectrum. John’s career began in illustrious style as the one and only Goldie picked up on this mild- mannered, blonde-locked science graduate and his distinctive drum and bass beat con- structions, and he was signed to the legendary Metalheadz label. Tracks such as the euphoric “Up All Night” have become instant classics in the canon of drum and bass, and repeatedly smashed dancefloors worldwide. John B quickly became a headlining name on flyers across the globe, and his touring schedule has been non-stop ever since. Establish- ing his own stable of labels (Beta Recordings, Tangent, Chihuahua and Nu_Electro) to reflect his diverse tastes from liquid funk to Latin, provided the perfect platform for John’s groundbreaking sonic experimentation to develop.

Gein http://www.myspace.com/gein1 GEIN, appropriately named after the Plainfield Wisconsin pyscho Edward Gein, consists of The Butcher (formerly of Defiant), Abel(MC) and Saint (founder Doon of Habit Recordings). Formed in early 2004, the crew linked up when Butcher moved from Los Angeles to Milwaukee, joining Saint and Abel to create one of the most twisted group of producers out there today. GEIN's sound can have a variety of "labels", but BRUTAL comes to mind when most come to describe the demented beats that are forged in the lab. Coming off a scorching 2005, GEIN is set to take things ten steps further in 2006. With an E.P. for Moving Shadow (Street Sweeper EP) and a 12" for Freak (Hate / Father Of Lies) in the bag, GEIN's forthcoming material is raising eyebrows across the board. Some current forthcoming projects include a Habit 12" (Telepathy w/Bitfiendz / Hell) that has been causing a ruckus around the world. Freak will be putting out an E.P. consisting of GEIN and Arsenic's "b", "The Sermon", and two brand new, still unfinished ones. Also on the chopping block, GEIN is remixing Dylan's classic darkstepper "Witchcraft", as well as Technical Itch's "Hex", two massive undertaking that they believe will raise the bar one step further. Also lined up are collaborations with the likes of the mighty Evol Intent,releases on Tech Freak & Defcom Recordings, and more output on Habit / Freak. Plus let us not forget the SKINSUIT SESSIONS! SPREE & ADB DJ Spree Turntable Innovator Minneapolis MN SpreeAndAdb.com/Esdjco Clothing MC ADB Lyrical Engineer Lincoln NE SpreeAndAdb.com/Esdjco Clothing DJ Spree and MC ADB have become a staple for hardcore stateside. The dynamic duo have played shows all over the world and after 7 years of terrorizing dance floors are back once again to rock the cave. Spree is without doubt the most well known and respected Happycore DJ in Americas history. No one can imitate the originator. Not only can he scratch like turntable fiend, but he also possesses the ability to turn a crowd into an instant frenzy with his record dropping intuition and understanding of what the hardcore army demands. Each time you see Spree memories come flooding back and at the same time new ones are created. He perfectly balances anthems of old with the latest sounds of today. MC ADB is a very well known character in the realm of Hardcore and DnB. He can be seen flying up and down stages from London to Los Angeles and everywhere in between. His lyrical style is very high energy and compliments the speed of hardcore perfectly. Adb is originally from the UK and was heavily influenced by Hardcore from its very inception. This mic fiend is a throw-back to the original style Hardcore MC, and is simply here to entertain the crowd and compliment the DJ. Get ready to blow those whistles and scream once again for your favorite duo, because it’s going to be Spree&Adb time! (Crash helmets not included). Riot Squad http://www.myspace.com/riotsquadvc In feb of 2005 after dj basic got tazed in the neck by police at mardi gras djs ,lil ron , simply butta, bassik, and murda came together and formed the riot squad. a mesh of dark tech jump turntabelistic drum and bass these guys are rockin shows all over the south and are a show not to be misseed.

He has since become fixture of the electronic scene in the south east, while his studio skills are in depand across the country. Don't let this mild mannered engineer fool you, the mood quickly turns to madness when he's on the turntables. Unkl Ryan is gauranteed to get any floor moving with his high energy stylings.

here's an updated extension of the before listed lineup..... just keeps getting better!!
Throughout the ages mankind has moved and adapted to the changing world all the while changing the world around them. Learning how to tune into the universe man has managed to make conscious leaps in evolution. These leaps have left us with abilities setting us apart from other life on this planet. These traits include spoken language, advance visual recognition, and that which we take most for granted, a sense of rhythm. Throughout history the first to make advances are often cast out by society and referred to as freaks only to be respected and admired by later generations. As technology and the ability to obtain information increases at an ever quickening pace, we must prepare ourselves to once again make an evolutionary jump. One year ago we gathered to bring ourselves in line with the cosmic rhythms and sent a message out into the universe that we are ready to advance. Now we come together to receive the response.

Respected world-wide, Kid Icarus has mapped the US inside and out with his infectious beats and entertaining DJ sets. Pumping house and funky techno dominate the speakers when Icarus is on deck. "There is an edge to his set, an aggression, each new song big-shouldering its way into the mix like a street-corner thug, trying to punk the others out. The rhythm changes your heartbeat, the bass completely stops it. He's manipulating his audience as smoothly as he manipulates his decks, bringing them in and pushing them right back out," says New Times publication Dallas Observer, which ranked him "Best DJ" in 2003. His passion cuts deep into music production. Icarus has brought label Prototype Platinum into a chart topping reality featuring hit makers from around the globe.

Alex Meu and Mico Mills are the masters of the peak-hour mayhem. They have redefined "Live PA" as a true dancefloor experience. Having grown up in the underground rave era of the early 90's, SwitchFocus were no strangers to the concept of high wattage party music. The sounds of techno pioneers like Dj ESP and Hyperactive inspired their first live pa project under the name"Two Point Theory". The Woody McBride "Wall of Sound" events, Even Further Massives, and Drop Bass parties were among the first spots where Meu and Mills learned the dynamics of rocking the crowd. Today, SwitchFocus tours independently to many major cities in the US and Canada alongside acts like Dj Hurricane, Skylab 2000, Dave Trance, and Terry Mullan. Alex Pi http://myspace.com/alex_pi Hailing from Rotterdam Holland. With a performance log spanning from Europe to the US and even Africa, it's safe to say, no matter your location, that Alex will stir up a substantial regimen of VIBRANT heat. Jimmi Journey shares the following personal words: " Dedicated to the music, it is common to see Alex making efforts to visit the U.S. without any expectations other than to spread his art. Experimenting with three Decks, Alex manifests styles of Techno and House that contain originality, soul and spirit." It all began 7 years ago at 16 of age in Vlaardingen in the summer time. Recording his tapes at home and playing them in the local coffeeshops ’Zeespiegel’’and the café ’Zeezicht’. His first opportunity to rock large scale events where he could show his skills was ‘Podium Gallery X’ (now it is called Maddox)......and then dazzling listeners @ his regular sessions on Delft “Radio Energy”. Every weekend Alex would regular after parties in Rotterdam, where he met Angela, an American student, who took him to the states and showed him around in the American house scene. You could say that Alex has proven him self being consistent in keeping his audience passionate. Now, seven years later, he started his own label, 2Recordz. The studio where they are realizing there ideas is Liquid Spillers studio in Rotterdam Crooswijk. Paul Williams, Joja Jules, and Francis Jules, together they are the Liquid Spillers. His skills have carried him about the globe, the following being but a few of his stops. Rotterdam::.

Formed in early 2004, the crew linked up when Butcher moved from Los Angeles to Milwaukee, joining Saint and Abel to create one of the most twisted group of producers out there today. GEIN's sound can have a variety of "labels", but BRUTAL comes to mind when most come to describe the demented beats that are forged in the lab. Coming off a scorching 2005, GEIN is set to take things ten steps further in 2006. With an E.P. for Moving Shadow (Street Sweeper EP) and a 12" for Freak (Hate / Father Of Lies) in the bag, GEIN's forthcoming material is raising eyebrows across the board. Some current forthcoming projects include a Habit 12" (Telepathy w/Bitfiendz / Hell) that has been causing a ruckus around the world. Freak will be putting out an E.P. consisting of GEIN and Arsenic's "Bitch", "The Sermon", and two brand new, still unfinished ones. Also on the chopping block, GEIN is remixing Dylan's classic darkstepper "Witchcraft", as well as Technical Itch's "Hex", two massive undertaking that they believe will raise the bar one step further. Also lined up are collaborations with the likes of the mighty Evol Intent,releases on Tech Freak & Defcom Recordings, and more output on Habit / Freak. Plus let us not forget the SKINSUIT SESSIONS!

The dynamic duo have played shows all over the world and after 7 years of terrorizing dance floors are back once again to rock the cave.
