Jason Hann and Michael Travis (percussionist and drummer from the band The String Cheese Incident) compose this brand new 100% improvised live breakbeat, trip-hop, house, and drum n' bass project. Drawing from the ethos of some of the great DJ's and computer artists of the world, they use cutting edge technology to create truly original and melodic dance music in the moment, with the undeniable power of live drums. The music is all created on the spot, recorded, then mixed and remixed live to create an ever evolving musical experience. Since the project is 100% improvised, every night promises to be a unique dance experience.

ROOM TWO


FOREST GREEN - San Fran
forestgreen.org



Beginning her DJ journey in the San Francisco Underground, Forest Green has perfected the art of bringing it to the dance floor. 11 years later, she continues taking things to the next level, amazing crowds with her high energy, hot bass lines, and soul gripping grooves.

Tireless in her support of the rave as a venue for personal and artistic expression, Forest has rightly gained fame as a consummately professional DJ and live performer, earning the respect not only of her audience, but the promoters who work with her. She is a featured DJ in Sony Picture Classic's GROOVE, an independently produced film depicting the true spirit of the early 90s San Francisco Underground. Forest's most recent productions will debut this coming summer, bringing her back to Europe and all over North America. Mixes are available at www.forestgreen.org/mixes music at www.myspace.com/forestgreen


CALCULON - San Diego
myspace.com/djcalculon



After several years of DJing and promoting events in Southern California, Calculon became interested in making his own tracks to mix into his sets. After joining the Rubik Records team alongside Kubiks last year, he has been doing A&R for the internationally respected label and has played shows from Bristol to San Francisco. Since Calculon has started producing Drum n Bass he has successfully signed tunes to labels such as FF Recordings, Rubik Records, and Fokuz Recordings. He also has released the very well received Bootleg White Label of Paper Planes and Unstoppable through LOAD. Based out of San Diego, California, you can hear some of the sunshine in his productions, and whether you hear his tunes on 1XTRA or Bassdrive, you will hear the soul and impact in his music. Don't sleep on this producer, the best is yet to come.
