Singularity

Joe Nice is a dubstep DJ from Baltimore Maryland. Nice was the first person to put on dubstep nights in America and founded New York's irregular Dub War club night, which has hosted performances by British dubstep artists such as Hatcha, Youngsta Kode9, Mala, and Loefah. He performs regularly in New York, London (including at scene pillar DMZ), and elsewhere. He first heard dubstep in 2002, at the Baltimore venue Starscape, and began playing it that same year. He has been praised for his charisma and stage presence. In 2005, music journalist Martin Clark also praised him for his access to new dubplates (in contrast to other American dubstep DJs) and willingness to play tracks by lesser-known producers. In 2007, Nice was selected as one of URB magazine's "Next 100". In 2015, he founded the label known as Gourmet Beats, pushing content from the likes of Moonstones, Fill Spectre & DJG.

And for one night this August, you can see him in Seattle! Come get your wobble on!

The electronic music landscape is riddled with sub-genres that embolden, engage, and electrify audiences world-wide, while being rooted in community values. It’s expansion has allowed an array of talents to emerge, forging news sounds created from internal and external impressions. This organic impact has led Seattle producer, Xakra, to rise through the recesses of the underground carrying a range of dubstep-inspired audio production. While bonding over their passion for music and delving into the experimentation of pulsing basslines and stark, spare soundscapes Amadeo Sanchez and Alex Diego have built an identity that captivates showgoers and spectators alike. This duo successfully combines technical skill and performance flair, whipping live audiences into a frisk frenzy. From rousing gatherings in dimly lit rooms, to championing the interwebs, Xakra has uplifted the artistry behind sound system culture - embodying it - in all its grandeur and glory. They've released with notable labels such as Duploc, Encrypted Audio, Silent Motion, Deep Dark & Dangerous and more. Making it clear to the underground community that their established sound is taking off.

In consideration of these monumental movements Amadeo pushes the boundaries of music outreach as Co-Founder of Manuka Records, alongside UK’s electronic-music icon Hypho. Together they’ve pushed the left-field techno movement to new heights, national borders, and the ears of universal music lovers.

Klippee —-

Named by Mixmag as an artist bringing new energy to the North American Drum & Bass scene, Seattle-based Klippee is certainly one to watch. His versatile, yet forward-thinking production process yields tracks that truly stand out from the norm. His extensive release discography with powerhouse labels such as Critical Music, Shogun, Lifestyle Music, and more is a testament to his uncompromising will to create. This exceptionally-talented musician has garnered international support from critically-acclaimed producers and pioneers such as Noisia, Kasra, Skeptical, Serum, and many more within the contemporary realms of drum & bass music. His diverse production style has also gained the support of dubstep and bass artists such as Truth, Khiva, and Sicaria Sound. With a vast resume of international performances, his dynamic future-focussed drive carries him further and further along his path. Sharing stages with acts like Calyx & Teebee, The Prototypes, and Crissy Criss has proven his ability to captivate a crowd. The disruptively successful launch of the Seattle-based innovator has caught the eye of both veteran and new drum & bass fans around the world. The next chapter of his career will be the most exciting to date.
