Alienswede:
https://soundcloud.com/alienswede
Alienswede is an alien from Sweden. He has spent a lot of time trying to blend in with the locals in NYC since his arrival in 2006. Alienswede is a classically trained bio writer with a passion for music with bleeps. Every so often he manages to strongarm himself into some random DJ booth and inflict bleepy music on party goers. Witnesses from these events report hearing otherwordly noises and repeated, steady, drum-like sounds that one victim described as "Pretty good. Almost like music.".
Universally, the survivors of these events report feeling as if they had "danced all night". If you are thinking about going to an event where Alienswede is on the flyer, exercise caution, be ready for sudden dancing and watch out for probes.

Hugh Sharpe:

Behind the decks since 1995, Hugh Sharpe cut his teeth in the psychedelic trance scene helping to shape and promote its development around the United States and Canada during its nascent years. Document archives detail sightings of Sharpe at venues large and small across North America wherein he performed alongside most of the top names in that genre throughout the first decade of his career. From massive events like Return To The Source and WEMF and legendary nightclubs like Vinyl and Tunnel down to the smallest weeklies and one-offs, Mr. Sharpe has braved virtually every hazard and environment to deliver his carefully crafted and smoothly-sequenced soundscapes to dance floors for nearly two decades. With an expanded sonic palette at his disposal, years of mixing experience behind him, and now a role in the production arena, Sharpe poses even more of a threat to the dance music status quo today than ever before.
Recently identified as a principal operative in the enigmatic organization known as Silicon Syndicate, Mr. Sharpe has stronger ties in the worldwide progressive techno music community than authorities had previously estimated. With his long-time cohort Kent Friedman [aka: Mind Warped] confirmed as another principal member, Syndicate influence is confirmed to be on the rise and growing at an exponential rate. Sharpe and Friedman are actively recruiting a dedicated legion of collaborators and acolytes from virtually every continent to achieve the primary goal set forth in their Syndicate's manifesto-- the complete control of dance floors worldwide. At its current and projected rate of grown, experts predict to find them working relentlessly and with increased frequency both behind the scenes as well as on the front lines in the creation and delivery of highest quality non-lethal doses of mind-altering progressive techno to discerning addicts around the globe over the next few months as their legion of minions grows. This event is evidence to prove those predictions accurate.

Mind Warped:
Mind Warped is the solo project and DJ persona of Kent Friedman. A long-time producer and dance music aficionado, Kent dropped his guitar in 1994 and began producing various forms of trance music following inspiration from the early days of techno as the scene swept through nightclubs and abandoned warehouses between Boston and New York City. Originally working as a producer, Kent was the first U.S. artist to release a psychedelic trance album on a European Record label, Holland's Boom Records. Mind Warped went on to collaborate with NYC DJ Hugh Sharpe as Shape Shifters (not the U.K. group who tragically stole the name and will never be forgiven), touring North America as a production duo in the late 90s, rocking dance floors and making many friends along the way including one of tonight's co-conspirators, Alienswede.
Over the years Kent collaborated with various producers including California's Deeper In Zen while developing his DJ skills and honing his production abilities. More recently he reunited with Hugh Sharpe as Silicon Syndicate and the two-man team is taking on the world again with an aggressive original track and remix release schedule; presenting their music on top progressive house and trance imprints including LuPS Records, Mistique Music, Midijum, Icarus Creations, Elliptical Sun and more.
Mind Warped's DJ sets are characterized by hypnotic driving grooves, a strong rhythmic foundation and a healthy dose of lush, melodic atmospheres that will keep both your body bouncing and your brain swirling. Kent's style takes influences from techno, trance and underground house with a splash of psychedelia to create a rich tapestry of progressive sound that is sure to deliver the goods for any fan of quality dance music.

Affection [Eris] - For Affection, music is about creating emotions, and trance music is the ultimate tool for sharing any and every emotion. "Trance is a constant flow. Every song is a building block in one or more emotional directions, and by the end of an epic set, the audience is left both overwhelmed and craving more."
Over the last decade, Affection has traveled the world to find and study the masters of powerful dance music. Affection entered the industry as a producer in order to delve deeper into the inner workings of the song, and now combines all of his experience together by performing with one goal: to make a crowd feel.
Beyond music, Affection is a civil rights advocate, tech entreprenuer, world explorer, and professional troublemaker, and when not on the road lives in New York and Miami Beach. Web: http://www.affection-music.com/ --- FB: https://www.facebook.com/affection-jon

Moneta [Eris] - Moneta has always had passion for music, driven by her parent's eclectic music collection and their encouragement to learn music. At 11 she learned to play the saxophone and started exploring the local records shops shortly thereafter. Her inspiration behind the decks comes from classic electronic acts like Depeche Mode, New Order, and Acid House acts like 808 State and S'Express. DJ/Producer influences range from Sasha, John Digweed, Jeff Mills, Markus Schulz, Jody Wisernoff, Gareth Emery, Nick Warren, Sander van Doorn, and of course Armin van Buuren.
Moneta has lived in San Francisco, Dallas, and even Barcelona before moving from Los Angeles to New York City. Shortly thereafter she began working in the New York City electronic music scene, observing the DJs, the crowd, and the promoters, gaining the knowledge and experience to take to the decks and start spinning music and throwing awesome parties herself.
Using her experience and passions, Moneta aims to give people a unique musical journey while still keeping true to her love of Trance and Progressive. FB: https://www.facebook.com/moneta.kallesti |
