GET EDUCATED
THE AUDITORIUM:
DIESELBOY (djdieselboy.com, planetofthedrums.com, human, PA) w/ SPECIAL GUEST
MC
Fresh off not one but two hot tours: Planet of the Drums 2002 and Area 2 Tour
where he co-headlined with David Bowie, Moby, Carl Cox and the like,
Dieselboy is without a doubt being rapidly recognized as one of the world's
creme de la creme in the djing world. The 6ixth Session (Palm Pictures) was
not only one of the best selling electronic music albums in the States last
year, at over 80,000 scanned, The 6ixth Session is also the best selling drum
'n' bass mix CD in the history of electronic music. Although it came out in
late 2000, it continues to sell strongly to this date.
Called "The most in-demand American drum 'n' bass DJ on the planet" by DJ
Times, Dieselboy's impeccable mixing skills consistently earn him gigs all
over the world, from Hong Kong to Helsinki to Cape Town, South Africa.
"project HUMAN", which was released on March 19th, 2002, is the first
full-length release off of HUMAN, his label, and gives a taste of the brave
new world seen through his eyes! Higgins, along with E-sassin, Stratus, Hive
and Danny C from Twisted Anger, remixed choice material from all types of
electronic music, from filtered disco house to trance to west coast hip-hop.
The end result, a cd and label that clearly put American d+b on the map for
the rest of the world to finally recognize. This global performer is now
setting powerful new standards constantly between his precision production,
his dedication to his genre, and his vision of grand things for all things
drum and bass. A true instructor to get you educated @ Skool'D witness the
power of DIESELBOY! 1:00-2:00AM
CRAZE (Six Time World Champion, The Allies) Special performance with FINAL S
CRATCH!
Craze's championship titles include: World ITF Scratch Off Champion '98,
World DMC Champion '98, ¹99, '00, USA DMC Champion '98, ITF Western
Hemisphere Scratch Off Champion '98, Winter Music Conference Scratch Off
Champion '96, '97, '98, '99, East Coast DMC Champion '97, East Coast Rap
Sheet
Champion '96, Zulu National Champion '95, '96. Craze¹s blend of hip-hop,
breaks, drum & bass and turntablism is untouchable. His tours have included
the largest North American Drum & Bass excursion - The Kung Fu Knowledge
Tour, the 35 date Mixer¹s TGIM Tour with DJ Infamous which toured globally.
This, along with, extensive coverage in all most every hip-hop and dance
music magazine and TV program available, has made Craze a worldwide hip-hop
phenomenon. Craze is a mad scientist who slices and dices beats into a
breathtaking sonic concoction in his Miami laboratory and at events all over
the world. The Nexxsound - Craze's first ever mix CD - stands as a testament
to his pioneering vision of melding the mentality of a battler with the
street smarts and savvy of the jungle elite. Lauded for years by hip-hop
aficionados, Craze has won the respect of England's drum 'n' bass mafia,
which explains why revered British labels like V Recordings, Undiluted and
Virus have presented him with exclusive tracks you won't be able to hear
anywhere else. And let's not forget Craze's exclusive turntablist cut ups -
three mind blowing pastiches that are all ahead of its time. Craze is moving
at the speed of light. Sleep on his skills and he's gonna leave you in the
dust. Now with the addition of Final Scratch to his performance he is truly
moving beyond this reality into a 5th dimensional sensei of finger movement
only the most diligent grasshoppers can even comprehend! 2:00-3:00AM
FEELGOOD (Moonshine, Fever, Buzz, Ultraworld, MD/CA)
Slammin it in hard and groovy, Feelgood defines powerful house music and has
rocked many COK events over and over again. Most recently he tore the house
down at So Fresh & So Clean earlier this year. Back once again to give it to
you good, Charles Feelgood's now Cali influenced sound is coming back to pump
you all in the thriving mass of sweating, screaming for more motherfuckers
who just won't be able to get enough! Production is never slackin for
Feelgood as he has dropped remixes for Keoki as well as releasin' his own
material on Moonshine's Red Imprint which is moving tons of units across the
US. His contribution to the djmixed.com series is a rock solid contribution
to the legacy of quality house music. Don't be late for class when Charles

Dieselboy? Craze? Feelgood? WERD. :)
You couldn't keep me from this party if ya tried.
Peace ~Katie
*waits for mods to lock it up like you know they will*
 
party looks all sorts of dope, but the things i gotta do for money.....
 
Damn, Knowledge postin on BL now, eh? :)
Excellent lineup.. this post will be re-opened one month prior to the event date. If any additonal info is needed, or anything to be changed before this is re-opened, feel free to email one of the NE Event Moderators, and it will be done.
 
^^^was just gonna post about the deep house room, but i must be torn away for feelgoods set
**drools** can't wait for this one!!!
peace
Kevin
 
if i get my job situation straightened out, im def gonna hit this one up
 
dieselboy... craze... this one is definately worth the road trip. i'll have to see how school/work is going with everyone then, but hopefully me and my peoples will be there ;)
 
not sure where funky4breakz is from... but if anyone needs a ride from boston, let me know... can't wait
 
Well I will def be there for DSL, Craze, Feelgood and my boyz Benny B, Mr Matt, and Albino. Yeah doggie doggie. :D
 
since on one has posted in a couple days, i thought this could use a good BUMP
 
Well I was looking for a birthday party & this could be it!
Anyone know how many hours I'm looking at driving from Cental NJ to the Venue?
 
^^^ Anywhere from maybe 3 to 4 hours...possibly a little more. I know that judging from where I live it takes me about 30 mins to get to Asylum but for me to go Newark (I have a friend that used to do a weekly there and I'd go down), it would about 2 1/2 hrs roughtly. So from where you might be coming from I'd say about another 45mins to an hour maybe...
Plus it all depends on how you come up and how fast ya drive. ;)
