ILLEXXANDRA
[Brooklyn]

Brooklyn-based DJ/producer Illexxandra (illexxandra.com) brings a consistently fun party vibe, drawing from the worlds of funk, UK future sound, global bass, electro swing, and classic club culture. Her sets draw you in with innocent joy, smack you around with raw ferocity, and then set you down gently with deep musical knowledge. She’ll kill it with an hour of bangers, or take you on a five-hour journey into sound.

Illexxandra is a resident DJ at Vitamin B, New York’s longest running monthly breakbeat party, and at Tropic of Bass in Washington, DC. She is also a resident of the infamous and long-running Rubulad party, a core DJ of the Mischief DC crew, and member of the Plug 4 camp at Burning Man.

This distinct vintage vinyl sound is blended seamlessly with a wide variety of electronic styles, from Trance to Dubstep, Chill-out, and Drum & Bass. “At some point I started producing music exactly as it’s always sounded in my head. Not bound to any specific Genre, but influenced by many genres.”

NARKATTA
[Good Looks NY, NYC]

Narkatta, picked up the guitar after obsessing over a video of Jimi Hendrix lighting his axe on fire at Monterey Pop Fest in '67. Idolizing Jimi, Narkatta began emulating by experimenting with amplification, distortion and an array of guitar pedals. Soon he began to be known for spinning high energy sets not limited to any genre, combining Swing, Deep, UK Jackin/Bassline House, Dub, Glitch Hop, Future Garage & Bass, Ghetto Funk and Trip Hop. He started playing local NYC parties and has been known for spinning massive 6+ hour sets and motiving dancefloors across the east and west coasts. . Top 5 Nominee for BEST COLLEGE DJ for 2012's Global Spin Awards in NYC. There never is a party where Narkatta doesn’t whip the crowd into a rabid bass fueled frenzy, spinning for the love of what he does.

DURIANS
[Live Electronic Bass Music, NYC]

Durians never sticks to formulas. Wobbly bass lines are played from Nick Kirshnit's hybrid MIDI/Electric bass, which come out mean, dance-inducing, and compelling. Drum n' bass and jazz-infused dubstep beats are played by drummer Ryan Ramirez, which further provides the crucial "live" element to their music. Melodies and sounds from Eli Chalmer are provided not just by synths and sounds produced by laptop, but by live trombone, keyboards, and unique original instruments such as MIDI-Theremin.

"an ambitious and highly danceable experiment, recalling STS9 at their most electro, or perhaps Daft Punk at their most organic" - Dan Bolles, 7Days Magazine, Burlington, VT

"...booming synths, heavy drums and instrumentals reminiscent of alien screeches -- so bombastic that the floorboards shake." - Lauren Harrison, Newsday, Long Island

SISTINE CRIMINALS
[Live Electronic Dance Music]

Sistine Criminals was founded in Boston by saxophonist Aaron Burnett and drummer Greg Sgrulloni. They infuse modern electronic dance genres, such as drum n bass, tech house, dubstep, IDM and hip hop, with the creative and intellectual influences of jazz and classical music. They strive to emulate the intensity of a DJ while drawing on the chemistry that can only happen among a live duo of musicians. The Sistine Criminals are notorious for their exhilarating rhythms played by drummer-extraordinaire Greg Sgrullioni (aka "Torch"). He rips through a framework of reverse-engineered live electro-acoustic dance music, which has been blogged as “high art in your face!”

Sistine Criminals brings the depth of composition and orchestration with the excitement and fluidity of live performers to electronic music. They establish an energetic rapport with their audience that could only emerge from live performance. By drawing from primal rhythms while looking to the future of music technology and new rates of consciousness, Sistine Criminals is a force in music made up of dynamic creators who embody musicality, honor, integrity and ingenuity.
