Z-Trip’s Revolution, a Party for the People launches Oct. 16

Las Vegas (Oct. 2, 2009) – N9NE Group and Palms Casino Resort present Z-Trip’s Revolution featuring world-renowned musical talent DJ Z-Trip at Rain Nightclub beginning Oct. 16. DJ Z-Trip is the new resident mix-master, showcasing his genre-blurring style on select Fridays.

“We are excited to have DJ Z-Trip as our new resident in Rain Nightclub,” says Michael Morton, N9NE Group Managing Member. “Z-Trip has earned his recent title ‘America’s Best DJ for 2009.’* His track record of critically acclaimed sold-out shows, which have smashed attendance records, will further expand the massive following of music fans from all over the world who come to Las Vegas for stellar music and entertainment.”

“I’m honored to call Rain Nightclub my new home,” says DJ Z-Trip. “N9NE Group shares the progressive vision that artists like myself need in order to push the envelope. Las Vegas is now a global music destination; it’s only right that we join forces and make it happen.”

Z-Trip’s Revolution features specialty artwork created by Shepard Fairey, renowned contemporary artist, graphic designer and illustrator. Fairey’s work exploded into the American psyche with the iconic Barack Obama “HOPE” poster during the 2008 U.S. presidential election. The Smithsonian, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, New York’s Museum of Modern Art, and the Victoria and Albert Museum in London all include Fairey’s work in their collections.
