vibrations reader, immatator detector and inner space astronaut m r ed. . . anyways. michael will be doing the closing set of night. picking it up where matty g leaves off and eventually winding the night down at the very end. it could stay hype til the end or it could smooth out a bit. whatever seems called for. http://www.myspace.com/michael_red
/ / FRAME dubstep.fm
Living between Vancouver and Victoria, Frame spreads the more chill and musical side of dubstep to the people. Coming up in the Vancouver drum and bass scene, Frame has made the transition over to dubstep finding his style within the heavy roots and rhythm aspects of the music. Holding down residencies at The Reef and Mo Fire radio show on dubstep.fm, Frame is ready to set the right tone for the night. http://www.myspace.com/djframebccanada
/ / TACHICHI low pressure / camobear
T will be handling the mic for this night. this might be percieved as a musical risk, but at the same time it's kinda a sure shot (for some good times in the least). T comes from a rap background clearly, and dubstep's pretty new to him. but one thing that's not new to him is rocking the mic, hyping the crowd and having a good time. which comes quite naturally. so it go. http://www.myspace.com/wwwlowpressureca http://www.myspace.com/tachichiandmoves http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lZ1pE1Bo ... re=related

one of the more talented vj's in vancouver, with refined taste for minimalism and images of old airplanes. http://www.myspace.com/krashhazzard
