Shakti Collective invites you to greet the spring with another heartwarming event.

Presenting a unique, Canadian debut performance of

SHADOW FX (Zenon Records, Australia) - Live Set!

Shadow Fx was created in 2002 by 26 year old James Hyss from Melbourne, Australia. James started his musical career studying and playing drums and guitar in high school. Then at the age of seventeen he discovered psytrance in and around the famous trance hotspot of Byron Bay. After listening to and Dj’ing the music for several years, he decided to move to Melbourne and make a serious effort to put his own mark on the scene. He bought a computer and started to produce full time, leading him to the smooth and refined sound for which he is known today. In recent years he has played at many parties all over Australia including Rainbow Serpent, Earthdance and Audiogasm. He has also released compilation tracks on ZMA and Zenon, plus on Cosmic Conspiracy records with his brother Tetrameth. Shadow Fx has created a smooth blend of deep, funky, morning progressive that is distinctively shaped from the Zenon sound. In 2007 he released his debut album Direct Influence on Zenon.

DJ NOKTURNAL (Zenon Records, Area 709, Calgary) - DJ Set!

From his university days of ice-climbing, kayaking and mountain bike racing to his more recent involvement in the Canadian electronica community as a dancer, promoter, dj and budding producer DJ Nokturnal (Darvin Knorr) has never been one to do something half-way. Ten years of performing have recently led him to commit his Nokturnal incarnation to the Zenon sound: dark, intelligent and most definitely nothing but psytrance. Darvin is honored to represent a label which is home to so many incredible artists and he is eager to showcase the Zenon sound at gatherings around the world.
