 Coolness: 149040 | Level 4's Sarcastic joins up with ghetto-tech dj/producer extraordinaire Sebastian Prelar for a 4-turntable battle Thursday June 29 @ Saphir's Mix Thursday.
..the 11th edition of the weekly's tag team concept also includes collaborative DJ sets by NCV's Dave O'Brien & Deliz and by breakbeat/hip hop outfit the Muscle Brothers. Level 4 first used the 4-deck approach at our 2003 event School, where DJ Mana scratched with IDJ's Axionfigga & Nitrous while Level 4's exclusively 4-deck techno outfit Worker & Parasite made their debut. The concept was repeated to great success at this May's Communism event: Sean Kosa & Jordan Dare played together, Pinky 38 & Rhys Taylor collaborated and Sarcastic and Prelar performed together for the first time on four decks, blending booty, breaks and ghetto-tech with dirty south, baltimore club and techno anthems for a writhing dancefloor. Four-on-the-floor, four-turntable action jammin' four-by-four beats on the fourth level 
Sebastian Prelar Born in Montreal, former member of The 909 Soldiers with DJ Kal who a few years ago ran one of the first Montreal based techno labels, In-Filtration Records, Sebastian has been fascinated and obsessed by electronic music since the end of the 80's / early 90's. He got more seriously involved in composing and creating in 1996. Being active on the Montreal techno scene for years, he acquired experience by giving quite a live shows downtown and around the province. He then got signed and finally released his first tracks on Disktrick and In-Filtration Records in 1999. Prelar's style is mostly groovy bangin' & jackin' techno with a Chicago flavor, armed with pounding heavy beats and raw vocals. In 2003 he joined the legendary Djax-Up-Beats team and released his first EP on the label, remixing DJ Rush a few times, and then eventually signing on the german techno label Highball Music as well. In 2005-06 Prelar continues to expand the jackin' techno sound on DJ Bam Bam's Chicago based label, Bass Heavy Music. [ www.djax.nl ] [ www.bassheavymusic.com ] Sarcastic The evil genius behind Montreal-based underground electronic music pantheon Level 4 Productions, this amorphous being has contributed to the subculture's cabalistic causes on many levels for the past decade as label manager, DJ, producer, promoter and music critic. Possessed since childhood with a needling drive to splice together discrete musical compositions, first with cassette decks, microphones, CD players or 8-tracks, it was only a matter of time before Sarcastic was introduced to his lifetime partner: the Technics 1200. His love for the chugging repetitive nature of techno, acid house and hardcore genres remains informed by an early appreciation for hip-hop, stoner rock, jazz and psychedelia of all sorts. Equally at home behind two or three decks, Sarcastic’s diversity has allowed him to perform alongside many of his musical mentors: NYC’s Frankie Bones, Detroit ghetto-tech DJ Assault, Stockholm’s Slobodan and Thomas Krome, UK breakbeat stars Freestylers and Deekline, and minimal techno/dub genius Deadbeat. Residencies at Jai bar, Saphir, Vinyl, Blue dog, Jingxi or Amnesia have seen Sarcastic spinning anything from pure tek, minimal and experimental techno to acid, breakbeats, DnB, booty, house and tek-house; recently championing the “vinyl” movement, Sarcastic is even known to work classic rock, funk, hip hop, trip hop, blues, jazz and bluegrass into his carefully programmed DJ sets.
