♦ FUNKTION WELCOMES YOU TO 2011 ♦
EARS:
ARKADY [END FENCE | NEW YORK]
Arkady is a rising selektor in the New York City music scene. His unmistakable style incorporates heavy atmospherics, mangled, alien rhythms and futurist sound design at the outer boundaries of electronica. Drawing influence from the more intricate side of Dubstep, Techno, House, Drum & Bass, and IDM, his sets straddle the divide between traditional DJing and live performance. Recently featuring on Future Music Radio in New York, headlining Project: Integration in Los Angeles and currently holding down a residency at New York's Roost, Arkady continues to develop his beckoning, eclectic sound.

DJ MILKCRAATE [DIRTY BLUNTED CREW | NEW YORK]
Milkcraate has been single handedly providing forward-thinking electronic dance music in the suburbs of New York for the past 4 years. Being the only one to have a dubstep monthly in Westchester back before the step swarmed the nation, he's become the go-to DJ for everything breaks and womps his side of the hudson. Milkcraate brings the most innovative of broken beat, dubstep, wonky, b-more, and trip hop to the tables all supplemented with a personal layer of live MPC-sample-smacking goodness. Playing more nights than not, rumor has it Milkcraate prepares for sets in his sleep.

DE QUALIA [UNHEARDUV | BOSTON] *first appearance*
The term Qualia is used to describe the subjective quality of conscious experience. Qualia embodies the ineffable. De Qualia's unmistakable mixing style comprised of intricate rhythms, snarling synths, detailed design, ineluctable throbs and breathing basslines will naturally evolve as Jonathan Baruc furthers his exploration into the unexplored space and structure of sound. De Qualia is the creator and mixer of the notoriously eclectic and progressive EDM radio show, The Weekly Crash (thecrashaesthetic.wordpress.com). He is responsible for administering exceptional live productions as one third of Boston bassfunk providers, UnHeardUv. Currently stationed in Boston, De Qualia prepares for extraterrestrial bassfunk protocol for 2011. Whether on tables, CD-J's, MIDI controllers, a DJ app on his smartphone, or all the above, De Qualia never fails to fully captivate those engaged.
