It is our pleasure to once again present to you our annual new years celebration! Meet and greet 2009 with our special line up:
MAIN ROOM
VINCENT MOTION / SOLEAD *LIVE*
Treehand Music, Attitude Recordings, Tribal Vision / Paris, France
Vincent is the man behind Motion. He has a long background in classical music but started to produce electronic music in 2001. He has already released an album under the name, Tetraktys, famous for his progressive yet techy sounds and since has extended his musical playground to produce all sorts of grooves and atmospheres. In order to satisfy his new feeling, he created "Motion", for deep progressive house and electro. He has already performed at huge festivals all over the globe and released several tracks on both trance, house and electro labels proving his expansive versatility as a producer. Vincent describes his music as ranging from experimental underground to a more melodic and polyrhythmic feelings spanning a complete panel of musical colours. Progressive trance with a groovy dancefloor feel!
REPEAT CUSTOMER *LIVE*
Blacklight Activists / Toronto, Canada
Having both been involved in various projects over the years the two bring together a mature and cultured sound that will not be bound by genrefication. Being heavily influenced by the psychedelic, techno and progressive movements, these elements are deeply rooted in their innovative music. Dark and atmospheric sound scapes propel you into a world of unknown emotion, exploring the vastness of the night, pulled from the void by the solar sounds of light. The mission - to undue the chains of midi-ocrity that bind so much progress, and reserect the finest elements of underground sounds.
NEXUS 7 *LIVE*
Substance Recordings / Toronto, Canada
The Nexus7 is Steve Chan, a performer, producer and remixer based out of Toronto. After spending a number of years in the U.K., Steve was inspired by live PA performers such as Lab4, K90, Nu Idol, and Captain Tinrib to begin to create what has become The Nexus7. The Nexus7 is described on Ektoplazm.com as “a fresh act rising from the underground featuring a tight blend of trance styles, both hard and psychedelic”. Over the past year, The Nexus7 live show has had great success, playing at events by Shakti Collective, Braincell ProductionsGlobal, Ektoplazm, at Darkrave, Outworld Resistance, and with Bizune Audio at the Tokyo CyberMonster Party2. Each one hour, continuous set has its own flavour. The show is in a constant state of evolution, as Steve is always remixing, writing and adding new material to the set. With an array of synths played and tweaked, and with real-time control over a multitude of parameters, each performance becomes a unique experience.
