BRISBANE-25-1-08- !113g@1 v@1u3 w/DJ Distance (UK) @ Über

[shards]

Monster Mash with Vex’d saw the year out with a bang for the Underground Breaks’n’Bass community at Über, now !113g@1 v@1u3 returns on Australia Day weekend in the New Year with their Planet Mu label mate DJ Distance. Distance has established himself as a true luminary in Dubstep, his productions of years past among the first to really demonstrate the full range that the genre could represent- including delicate melodies, deep emotive pads, complex & hypnotic syncopation, ferocious basslines & samples borrowed from Sci-Fi & the Subcontinent.

Joining Distance in this edition is special guest Matt Hall from Melbourne, playing Glitch Breaks. Hall’s Weird Music Society was one of Brisbane Electronica’s brighter notes in the late 90s- introducing & releasing a plethora of local talent with productions dancing off the beaten track, including the debut CD from the Nam-Shub of Enki. Another local veteran Mixmasher Sven makes his !V debut in Old-School Pop’n’Lock Electro-Funk mode, with infamous mash-up maestro Funkedub & Hard Graft’s Sub-Low Specialist Frosty rounding out the line-up.
