| Description: | 4 Way Birthday Celebration! Cloud Dancer, Kaminanda, Mythril & Jason ************************************************** ********* the goat's practical ambitious careful humour meets the friendly water bearer's honest inventive intellect... and we find ourselves on the cusp... the cusp between two sun signs, the cusp of pairity, and the cusp of sonic waves... Sunset Collaborations proudly invites you, to celebrate capricorn and aquarious, and the special magic that occurs, in the magic ON THE CUSP... let's celebrate pairity and singularity in dual dj dynamification providing one collective sound... ON THE CUSP celebrates the moments in between, and our dear friends who were born there. as we enter into a new year... Music is set up by production groups, each group getting a set! Each set is 2 hours, and is DJ vs DJ throughout :) Our musical gladiators and the crews they represent are as follows!: 8PM-10PM || RETURNING SATURN :: ENTELECHY vs HELIX42 -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- HELIX42: Traversing borderless soundscapes Helix 42 plays the majority of his sets from the realm of spontaneity, creating a unique journey for spirit and the dancefloor every time he's behind the decks. From deep and delicate downtempo to full blown psychedelia, the train may stop at any or all points in-between. With his equal love for glitched out crunches, funky resonant basslines, deeply driving beats, all-out ambient, and the sweet strings of emotion, Helix 42 aims to be of service for a transformative experience in dance, spirit, and simply just being. ENTELECHY: Entelechy describes a vital agent or force which helps direct an organism toward self-fulfillment. From this realm of sonic self-exploration, Entelechy weaves soundscapes ranging from fully ambient and downtempo, thru hip-hop, glitch, breaks, psytrance, trance fusions, and back again. With a background in music theory, composition, arrangement, production and performance, he seeks rich environmental textures as a cornerstone to the myriad sounds and styles telling the stories of our own becoming(s). In a world where the main.stream is clogged up by cash money radio's river of commercialized beat-structures, Entlechy knows the audiophonic evolution of intentional dance music is a key to the freeflow of conciousness and to our evolving relationships to the planet and each other... 10PM-MIDNIGHT || TRIBE PRODUCTIONS :: DESUNOS vs KAMINANDA -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------- DESUNOS: Throwing down dynamic dance music since the summer of 2006, DJ Desunos (aka Laughlin Meagher) finds his roots in dub, reggae and world ethno electronic music, and now finds his home in electro/progressive house with a dash of breaks and tastefull trance. Through his work as a lead singer/songwriter, dee-jaying has become a natural evolution for this dynamic live performer. A skilled multi-instrumentalist and dedicated student of music, you never know what he will bring next to his show! KAMINANDA: Breathing deep into the unified dance of oneness, this producer / multi-instrumentalist is always excited to share in the sounds of celebration. Spiraling through World-fusion styles and diverse soundscapes, inviting the dancefloor to taste the rich heritages of tribal ancestry and progressive frontiers, Kaminanda is setting forth to playing Live P.A. sets using a laptop, guitar, keys, flutes, vocals, percussion and guest musicians while sharing with the world the Debut album "Syntropic Luminosity" ...Colourfulness, excitment and amazing attention to detail are strong components of the Kaminanda experience!! MIDNIGHT-2AM || SUNSET COLLABORATIONS :: JOSHUA vs NATRON -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------ JOSHUA: Joshua has been in and around the Victoria electronic music scene for many years, both as a DJ and promoter. Joshua infuses his infectious Progressive House grooves with layers of Techno, Electro and a dash of Trance - his energetic dance floors are always packed and pumpin'. Joshua has held several local weekly residencies, including the popular Sweatshop at Hush Nightclub alongside DJs Wookie and Beaks McGavin, as well as The Rise, and Rapture with local progressive house powerhouses Yoseff and Freya. Joshua continues to play numerous parties and clubnights, large and small, in and around Victoria and Vancouver, and has played alongside the likes of Max Graham, DJ Nemesis and Greg Benz. Joshua recently graced the mainstage at the 2008 Victoria Electronic Music Festival, and together with DJ Wookie energized the crowd with yet another killer set. One thing is certain - Joshua always leaves them wanting more! NATRON: The electronica fascination for Natron (Nathan Docksteader) began in the mid 90's after hearing music by The Prodigy, Robert Miles, Sasha & Digweed and Bad Boy Bill’s mad turntablism skills. It was the Moreh brothers (a.k.a. Shiloh) who really shaped the way natron played and listened to music, and Natron's djing style can best be described as a dynamic blend of cutting edge progressive house and tech which has proven to satisfy many dance floors throughout Victoria for the past year. With his recent addition to the Sunset Collaborations roster you can expect to see & hear much more of Natron in the future! 2AM-4AM || DELIRIA vs BEATS WITHOUT BORDERS :: MYTHRIL vs NILS -------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------ MYTHRIL: Mythril, a multi-insrtumentalist and visionary artist form Vancouver BC, who has been mixing and making music for over 2 decades, is known for his inspirational musical vision throughout the Pacific Northwest. Performing at many underground gatherings and international festivals, he has brought cutting edge music to dancefloors across North America. From high-powered launches to graceful landings - progresive psy, downtempo, breaks and dub flavour his musical journeys. Some of his favorite producers have shared the stage with him such as Protoculture, Jaia, Antix, Pixel, Koxbox, Deedrah, Shadow FX, Human Blue, Solar Fields, Ott - and many more from international and local rosters as well as art showings at Sunrise, Shambhala and Entheos Festivals including Shpongle's Seattle performance. NILS: Nils emerged from the deep forest on the Sunshine Coast in the late 90's and was one of a small group of DJ's and Promoters who put that fabled land on the map by organizing many conscious, underground dance events where previously there had been none. Faeries & Fools is the most well known of these events. He now lives in Vancouver where he is a part of the wildly succesful Beats Without Borders Collective. His DJ style is hard to pigeon hole but one can always expect to hear Global soundz with a slant towards tracks that are spiritual and sexy all at once. He believes each set should be a Journey for the dance-floor though he doesn't always know the destination when the Journey begins. In the last few years he has developed a love affair with Victoria and is deeply excited to be playing at "On the Cusp" this year with his good friend and "Baltic Brother" Mythril. 4AM-6AM || RAINBOW CATHEDRAL :: MOUNTAIN EYES vs CLOUD DANCER -------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------- MOUNTAIN EYES: Co-founder of the Rainbow Cathedral, a church based on the ancient practice of all night dance, Mountain Eyes is known for his deep, ethno-infused progressive soundscapes. His sets invoke the sacred tribal spirit within us all, calling on us to shake out the energies and beliefs that hold us back. Getting lost in dancefloors since 2000, Mountain Eyes' musical tastes have been honed by the influence of Delira's rainforest events, the magical SPEC gatherings, and the frequenting of underground clubs. He has shared stages with such masters as Human Blue, Adham Shaikh, David Starfire, Osiris Indriya, Telepathic, and Basilisk, as well as west coast heroes Mythril, RJ Solo, Akhentek, Yoseff, Joshua, DJ Dust, Nils, and Lady Ra. Close your eyes, open your heart, and get ready to go on a journey. CLOUD DANCER: Having traveled many a strange and varied dancefloor, delving deep into emerging scenes and genres over the course of a decade, Cloud Dancer (Chris Immink) stepped behind the decks for the first time a little over 3 years ago - and magic happened both for him, and for his listeners. Since then Cloud Dancer has formed deep roots within Victoria, aligning himself as core crew with the Rainbow Cathedral and Returning Saturn Productions. Crafting diverse & strategic soundscapes ranging from deep sacred downtempo to full-on psytrance with many ethno-infused tangents, , Cloud Dancer plays what he would dance to. If you haven't already, we expect you'll soon understand why. - 8.00pm birthday celebration community potluck 9.45pm opening circle led by Laughlin 10.00pm celebratory dance begins! hosted @ Sunset Room (behind Value Village) tickets are $20 in advance, $25 at the gate : limited capacity! advance tickets available Jan2 @ Shift - 574 Johnson Street this is a 16+ alcohol-free event PLUR | Party, Laugh, Undress, Repent! |
