S.U.N.
THE PARTY 17 YEARS IN THE MAKING...
Twenty
years ago a wave crashed on the shores of NYC. The wave was of sound,
color and collectivity. From the ashes of conflict and pettiness rose
this mighty phoenix called rave, and it changed everything. The STORM
was upon us, and the new rule was of dance and trance. The new ethos
was, “By the ravers, for the ravers…” Tonight we pay homage to where we
have been, where we are, and where we are going.
This is the
first Brooklyn warehouse style event that Dennis the Menace, Fredstrong,
Frankie Bones, Adam X, Heather Heart, Eddy Van Raven are working
together on since the last STORM rave on 12/12/92.
After the STORM the S.U.N. always shines…
IN THE S.U.N. WAREHOUSE:
FRANKIE BONES - STORM rave, Sonic Groove, NY/LA
www.fb.me/djfrankiebones
The
Godfather of Techno himself! Tonight we celebrate 20 years of NY rave,
and you cannot talk about NY rave, or even US rave, without talking
about Frankie Bones. He was the first US DJ to spin the London Orbital
rave in 1989, and that UK hanger party planted the seed, which grew into
the East Coast rave scene. In 1990 he opened Groove Records with his
brother Adam X, and along with Heather Heart launched the now legendary
STORM raves in 1991. Frankie has been a pioneer and an innovator in
United States EDM, ever since its inception. Let’s face it, if it wasn’t
for Bones, none of us would be here tonight…
ADAM X - STORM rave, Sonic Groove, NY/Berlin

Records, and STORM rave. In 1995 he created the Sonic Groove record

Magnetic North, Wax Trax, CLR and Prologue. In his career, he has
performed alongside Aphex Twin, Derrick May, Nitzer Ebb, Andrew
Weatherall and numerous others. He’s performed at thousands of legendary
events and club nights globally including Mayday, DEMF, Mutek,
Berghain, Tresor, PS1, Monox and Fabric. When he is not recording and
organizing events in Berlin, he is whipping his devotees into a frenzy
at raves and clubs the world over. Witness his return to where it all
began

Your Selectors for the Night:
World's #1 Female DJ:
DJ RAP (www.djrap.com, Impropa Talent, Los Angeles)
(House Music Set)
www.djrap.com/music.php#music-latest.html
www.djrap.com
Over
her 15-year career, DJ Rap has moved effortlessly between genres,
staking her claim on various styles within the electronic spectrum,
while simultaneously pushing the limits of rock and pop. The First Lady
of Drum 'n' Bass and the undisputed Queen of the Turntables, her music
has infiltrated club systems and car stereos worldwide, and her numerous
forays into video game and motion picture soundtracks have solidified
her pedigree as one dance music's most successful and prolific artists.
With
three studio albums, 75 mix compilations and over 2,000,000 in
cumulative worldwide sales to her name, what makes you think she'd stop
now?
In May 2010, DJ Rap will release Synthesis (Ministry of
Sound), a brand new studio album that weaves together a full compliment
of synthetic textures and organic moods, and paints a lucid picture of
her journey as a songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Powerful, melodic
and immaculately produced, Synthesis is a return to the hybridization
of styles she brought forward on Learning Curve (Sony), her 1999 debut
that had magazines like Rolling Stone and Ray Gun heralding her arrival
into the mainstream. The album's first single, "Give It All Away," will
be released November 2009.
"This goes deeper than just a dance
record," says Rap, inspired by a wide range of artists, from Pink Floyd
to Mutemath. "This album is a soundtrack to my life and what I've been
going through."
Though it's been three years in the making,
Synthesis represents merely one facet of Rap's diversified portfolio.
Her drum 'n' bass and breakbeat imprint, Propa Talent, has released over
200 tracks since its inception in 1994, and has become one of the
genre's most respected and well known labels. With its relaunch this
year, Propa Talent once again returns to the spotlight, offering up new
releases from artists like Nebula, Killin' Time, Mark Campbell, DJ CJ,
Mezo and Kyshido. Meanwhile, Impropa Talent, founded in 2008, catalogues
Rap's ongoing love affair with house music, and features the work of
established producers like Mike Hiratzka, as well as up-and-comers like
Tyler Revata and K-OBA. As owner, manager and A&R for both labels,
Rap has been busy cultivating fresh new talent that you're sure to be
hearing from in the near future. And that's just the beginning.
In
2010, Rap will again reshape the landscape with Metasyn, a ferocious
new D&B project with producer and vocalist Chemical Hero. A complete
sensory blitzkrieg, the Metasyn experience will transform everyone's
preconceptions of what live drum 'n' bass can be.
"This isn't going to be some cute chick making pretty music," she laughs. "You're in for one hell of a ride!"
New
details on Metasyn, as well as information on a 70-date world tour in
support of Synthesis, will be revealed shortly. In the meantime, keep up
on all the latest new and music at myspace.com/therealdjrap and www.djrap.com.
Visitors will be able to purchase releases from both her labels, as
well as DJ Rap's entire catalog. The fully interactive website also
features videos, free downloads, and one-click access to both iTunes,
Beatport and Drum and Bass Arena.
Check out an in-studio interview with DJ Rap on D&BTV: tinyurl.com/DJRapDnBTV.
ALSO she has a sick Mixcloud show!
EVOL INTENT (www.evolintent.com) - Dubstep / DNB
Having
begun Evol Intent Recordings in 2000, Knick and Gigantor were
determined to create a conduit suitable for their own productions as
well as those by friends and like-minded producers. The Enemy joined
ranks shortly after, via the internet, and eventually relocated to
contribute to the growing movement. Armed with several releases, a host
of regional performances, and recognition by acclaimed publications, the
next level of success was but an imminent conquest. Tracks like “Seven
Angels for Seven Plagues”, “Red Soil”, and “Where’s the Score” remix
began generating serious buzz on the dubplate circuit; in turn garnering
the affection of bona fide artists like Technical Itch and Dylan and
the esteemed Trouble On Vinyl music group. With Evol Intent Recrodings
acquisition of world wide distribution (initially via Alpha Magic), a
high exposure 12″ release on Outbreak, and signing to the exalted
Renegade Hardware, the group’s incredible progression was unparalleled.
Releases on the TOV sub-label, Barcode, and a remix of the Future Cut
anthem, “Ghetto Style”, furthered the crew’s burgeoning development.
With a compelling amount of quality releases and respect from the media,
the trio took their gospel to nearly every corner of the globe.
Extensive worldwide touring from Atlanta to Australia embedded the Evol
Intent doctrine into the ears and soundsystems across dozens of nations.
The
word on Evol Intent was spreading and caught the attention of Dieselboy
who requested their skills for his acclaimed “Dungeon Master’s Guide”
compilation, remixing a track from the world-renowned BT. Their 2005 “Us
Against the World” mix CD and tour have given rise to numerous
developments and further collaborations particularly with barcode label
mate Ewun. With the assistance of LOAD Media, Evol Intent Recordings
released new material by Mumblz, Arsenic, and Counterstrike and will
also feature remix treatment courtesy of techstep stalwart Technical
Itch and Milwaukee based phenoms Gein. One short year later saw the guys
release the “Police Sate EP” which went on to be one of the
best-selling EPs by an American drum n’ bass producer. Despite all these
advances, Evol Intent were not content following a straight path and in
an effort to branch out into different artistic releases they produced
tracks for video games like the coveted EA Sports’ “Need for Speed” and
Adult Swim promo adds.
Having achieved a degree of accomplishment
approaching pinnacle proportions, Evol Intent sees no intention of
resting or becoming complacent and went full force into 2007. This past
year saw them reunite with friend Dieselboy for his ‘Human Resource’
release titled “Evol Intent Assemble the Monster”, featuring tracks that
were re-edited, mashed-up and glitched. They also solidified other
partnerships, this time with fellow producers Chris Renegade, Ewun, Apex
and Spor to create the imprint Lifted Music. “Glock Party”, Evol
Intent’s contribution to the label’s inaugural release “The Prologue EP”
became an undeniable underground smash-a track that Goldie has been
spinning all over the world and boldly states that “the reaction has
been mental.”
As for the future, Evol Intent will be releasing
their highly anticipated debut artist LP “Era of Diversion” which
features the trio’s signature hardcore drum n bass sound, but the album
will many surprises in store for fans, as it traverses different genres
and styles. Breaking the mold and experimenting with other genres is
extremely important to Evol Intent’s evolution which is why they also
have side projects that afford each member an extra creative outlet.
Knick has partnered with fellow drum n’ bass producers Mayhem and Ewun
to form the breaks outfit Hostage and downtempo project Minus Music,
respectively. The Enemy is working with many of Atlanta’s elite MCs
producing hip hop beats and produces electro bangers under the name
Treasure Fingers. And Gigantor has been working behind the scenes for
many Southeastern acts doing mixdowns and engineering.
Underground
superstardom may well be an understatement, but the importance of Evol
Intent in contemporary drum n’ bass is simply undeniable. Beats that
think, beats that hurt. Evol Intent beats nonetheless
