Dead Weight! Presents...
After teaming up with the undisputed kings of underground bass music in Perth to showcase JAKES (H.E.N.C.H/Techtonic) DeadWeight! Return to once again shower the Perth Community in gritty warped bass, this time featuring EPROM (Warp/Surefire/Rwina) of San Francisco, Bay Area leading the charge!
For those of you that don't know, EPROM fuses psychedelic space machine murderation, polytemponic neurocrunk and heavy-handed pleasure to create obese ogres of bass. His mutated music is so full and rounded that it is holographic; such a massive sound requires multiple dimensions to fully express its brilliant colors and diversely accumulated weight.
EPROM’s collaborations with the Glitch Mob’s Boreta as Nasty Ways and with Mozaic as Hookerz N Blow have also been met with mad love from the underground, and he has released music on several domestic and international labels including Cloak X Dagger, Surefire, Black Acre, Rwina and Bad Acid, as well as a recent 12” with Eskmo on the groundbreaking label Warp.
Fans and supporters of EPROM include Flying Lotus, Starkey, Rusko, Jakes, Rustie, Megasoid, The Gaslamp Killer, Megasoid, The Glitch Mob and BBC Radio One’s Mary Anne Hobbs, and the producer has shared the stage with many of the international electronic music community’s hottest artists. With four new 12” out just in 2010, Eprom is finally getting the recognition he has earned as an integral part of the giant bouncing backbone of West Coast Sound.
If you're still undecided, don't forget;
local badmen ZEKE, VISHNU & YLEM will be bringing the motherfuckin' ruckus too!
All this and more for only $5.
Kicks off from 8pm.
Make sure you get down early 'cause The Bird is strictly limited capacity and this is set to pop off!
