Saturday July 16th 2005
Featuring
Kevin Saunderson
Detroit - Techno
worldofdeep.com, fuseindetroit.com
Respected and acknowledged around the World as one of the founding
godfathers of techno, Kevin Saunderson is a legend in his own right. From
his biggest achievements with INNER CITY to his multiple guises under Kreem,
Tronik House, Es'Ray, Reese & Santonio, E-Dancer and more, Kevin has helped
to reshape the future of Dance music as we know it today. With multiple
worldwide appearances, countless top 40 hits, numerous top 20 albums and
combined sales in the tens of millions, Kevin goes far above and beyond your
normal dj and producer. Also known for his massive annual festival known as
Fuse In Kevin continues to push the wave of edm to a whole new level for
both america and Detroit. This is Kevin Saunderson, this is a legend at
work, this is inspiration for all music lovers alike and there is so much
more to come.
John B
UK - DnB
Beta Recordings, beta-recordings.co.uk, john-b.com
If you haven't come across John B in one of his many musical guises over the
past decade, where have you been? Classically trained at a young age, this
British super producer has gone on to become one of the most eclectic and
unique individuals working within electronic music today. Although the
keystone to John's artistry before the end of the millennium was obviously
creativity and intuition, he was still on a path of self-discovery. This
fact, coupled with his penchant for cult, 80's synthesizer-style, Electro
soundscapes, would eventually lead him to the driver's seat of his
soon-to-be signature style; one that would sell him thousands of records.
John's genre-defying catalogue spans the worlds of Electro, Trance and Drum
& Bass, and a few other spaces across the bpm spectrum. Undoubtedly with no
limits John B is a name synonymous with originality and is far ahead of his
time on a world wide tip.
DJ Icey
Florida - Breaks
System Recordings, Zone Records, Tree, Essential Mix, Pam DJs, djicey.com
*Love of the Beat CD Release Tour*
Rising to worldwide prominence out of the fertile orlando florida electronic
music scene, which has spawned the likes of AK 1200,Kimball Collins, Jimmy
Van M, Chris Fortier, and Baby Anne, Icey is by far one of the most
respected and loved breakbeat producers in the nation. Playing 100 + gigs
per year, Icey is a touring maniac, but that doesnt keep him out of the
studio during the week working on new tracks for his indie labels zone and
tree records. With over 200 12" singles under his production belt, the "king
of breaks" has sound scanned over 300,00 units in north america alone.
Constantly trying to push the envelope to make his fans sweat on the dance
floor, Icey creates a seamless hour plus long mix encompassing the many
faces of the Worldwide Breakbeat scene. Always turn'in it out this is yet
another performance not to be missed.
DJ SWAMP
LA - Diseased Turntablism
Decadent Records, djswamp.com
Taking the title of USA DMC CHAMPION in 1996, his very first year involved
with the contest, Swamp became known for his turntablist antics (including
breakbeats, scratching, juggling, and destroying LPs and vinyl without ever
losing the beat). Able to turn a a simple dj show into something more than
words can describe, Swamp has been known to cut himself with shards of
shattered vinyl records, scratch a diamond-tipped phonograph needle across
his tongue and blow fire, occasionally with calamitous results. Appearing on
the pages of; Rolling Stone, Spin, Subculture, Raygun, Mean, DJ Times,
Keyboard, Rap Sheet, Mixer, Rap Pages, The LA Times, and Urb as well as
musical appearances with the likes of beck, bloodhound gang, bt, chrystal
method, weird al yankovic and many more, plus numerous tv appearances on abc
in concert, american music awards, conan o'brien, david letterman, espn and
more not to mention his movie appearances in clockstoppers and scratch,
swamp has become an american Icon. Onstage, huddled between a pair of
turntables, his unkempt long hair, black polished fingernails and aggressive
antics make Swamp look more like a death metal dude than a DJ, and with his
wild eyes, perpetual scowl and scraggly beard and moustache, he could easily
take home a Severed Head trophy in a Charles Manson look alike contest.
Witnessing Swamp torture the 1200's is like watching a magic show, prepare.
REID SPEED
NYC/LA - DnB/2 Step
Breakbeat Science, Direct Drive, NYC 2 Step
What can be said about Reid Speed that hasn't been said already? Her packed
dance floor sets that illuminates the depth of her track selections and the
full spectrum of her talent as a dj has lead Reid down the road of an
amazing dj/producer career that is only getting better with time. Having
played alongside every respected drum n bass producer form Aphrodite to zinc
and from la to nyc in the US and worldwide, Reid continues to bring her
thunder to the pulse of the dnb and 2 step community. Her mix tapes have
been available since 1997, and have covered many genres, and helped solidify
her reputation as one of New York's finest Djs and lead her to feature in
many industry & other magazines including Urb, Mixer, Women's Wear Daily,
Time Out NY, Flyer's "Best of 2000" issue & the Fader's recent "Best of New
York". Reid is no doubt partially responsible for the growth of a new scene
here within the U.S. She is sure to make this set a memorable one.

Lego
Chicago - House
poontinmuzik.com
Drawing from a wide spectrum of musical tastes, Rafael "Légo" Rodriguez
shows that he is not limited in any way on the turntables or in the studio.
He has 3 remixes that made it on the Billboard Dance Charts. His songs "El
Ritmo De Verdad" and "When I'm With You" became anthems in Ibiza, Spain, and
hit #1 on the International Dance Music Charts. Last year, 2004, he
celebrated his 12-year anniversary of The Boom Boom Room (Red Dog/Green
Dolphin), which is the longest running club night in Dance Club history. He
is currently starting his labels, Poontin Muzik and N. Y. S. S., mixing on
radio show "The Move" on XM Radio, receiving licensing deals from Sony's
Play Station 2, releasing mix compilations, Aphrodisio Mix Vol. 2, DJing
around the world, and doing remixes for major label artists. A definite
floor banger was his remix of Beyoncé's "Crazy in Love," on Columbia UK,
whose album won 5 Grammy's at the 2004 Grammy Awards. Some of his music is
currently available for downloading at iTunes.com.
Tom Sawyer
Cincinnati - U.S. Hard house
ACHardcorps.com, GSP Entertainment
*Gonna Die ep release event*
This man needs no introduction, with vinyl releases being sold world-wide on
his own label 'AC Hardcorps', Tom has quickly become a staple in the U.S.
hard house scene. He's had his tracks remixed by the likes of the House O'
Holics, Delta 9, Dj venom, Splatterhouse and performed at countless events
across the country. With a superb track selection, consisting of ruthless
hard-hitting originals and incredible mixing, Tom Sawyer WILL be bringin'
the hard shit for the truly hardcore. Prepare yourself.
DJ 3D w/ Phase Emcee
Chicago - Drum & Bass
Uptempo Dance Music
3D has been rocking the decks since the early 80's. Labeled the Godfather of
Chicago Drum & Bass, he has released more tracks than any other stateside
producer and continues to pound only the hardest of beats and the heaviest
of bass upon dance floors across the U.S.
In a bind, Phase MC would use the same cap off of a Bic pen to pick a lock,
draw hieroglyphics, stab a cop in the jugular and then clear out a pipe
after it was all done. Oh ya, Public Enemy's Chuck D reffered to him as the
Hip Hop purest when they met one morning in a church near Washington and
Clark.
