Derrick Carter
Listen to Sound Clip

Born and raised in the western suburbs, Carter was into music from a young age, but during his teens Chicago's house scene sucked him in for good. Before long Carter became a strong presence in the city's underground dance scene. He got by working at dance-music specialty stores like Gramaphone and gigging at parties. Later he landed regular DJ stints at Shelter, Foxy's, and Smart Bar. Though he doesn't spin much locally anymore, when he does he attracts large crowds. His sets are rooted in house, but he freely travels outside club tastes, seamlessly incorporating old-school disco, soul, jazz, and whatever else catches his fancy. Most of the time he works in Europe, where he's become a minor celebrity among dance-music aficionados. Carter says that due to his growing notoriety his production talents have been requested by pop-oriented acts. But he prefers to remain underground. Although enthused about his own Blue Cucaracha label and a new UK-based imprint he runs called Classic, he's reluctant to offer much explanation of either label's MO--other than each releases records when the mood strikes him. "I like to keep myself pretty invisible. You may think I'm somewhere, but I've already left."



Dj Colette
Listen to Sound Clip

DJ Colette is one of the first DJs to add her vocals to the record she spins, inspiring a new category of performance in the electronic world. As countless others begin to sing and spin, many can still not compare to the vocal/turntable sessions Colette delivers. How many singing DJs combine up-close observation of the legendary Derrick Carter and Mark Farina dating back to Chicago in the late Eighties with formal operatic training from the ages of nine to eighteen?

Room 2 - The 112 Crew (NYC)



112 Crew (NY) - Bill Patrick and Dennis Rodgers - 5 hour tag team set

The 112 Crew's residency at Arc helped bring a new sound to the New York scene which was saturated with progressive and tribal house. Bill Patrick and Dennis Rodgers have positioned themselves as some of the most exciting newcomers to the scene. Being asked to hold a residency at your favorite club is a dream come true for any DJ, but when it's alongside two of the best in the world, Danny Tenaglia and Danny Howells, there are no words to describe the feeling. Since the closing of Arc, Dennis, Bill, and the other 112 members have created a new party called "Robots". It has grown into New York's leading minimal/electro party, attracting guests from the forefront of this scene including: Magda, Sven Vath, Jake Fairley, Michael Mayer and many more.
