Throughout the ages mankind has moved and adapted to the changing world all the while changing the world around them. Learning how to tune into the universe man has managed to make conscious leaps in evolution. These leaps have left us with abilities setting us apart from other life on this planet. These traits include spoken language, advance visual recognition, and that which we take most for granted, a sense of rhythm. Throughout history the first to make advances are often cast out by society and referred to as freaks only to be respected and admired by later generations. As technology and the ability to obtain information increases at an ever quickening pace, we must prepare ourselves to once again make an evolutionary jump. One year ago we gathered to bring ourselves in line with the cosmic rhythms and sent a message out into the universe that we are ready to advance. Now we come together to receive the response.
CatalyticSouls and Disco Productions invite you to join in on this journey to enlightenment.

ELECTRIC SKYCHURCH
http://www.skychurch.com
James Lumb created Electric Skychurch as a vehicle for his imaginative, groundbreaking music in 1991. In '93 Skychurch rose up in the LA scene. James was throwing parties at his home in Silverlake, a LA neighborhood teeming with musicians, filmmakers and artists. The late-night events took off, eventually moving from LA to the Mojave Desert, where the parties grew into large monthly gatherings. Within a year, the gatherings exploded to include thousands of people and seeded the notorious “Desert Massive” movement that swept through the American West. During this period Lumb penned "Deus", a song that would come to be recognized as the earliest incarnation of the "West Coast" trance sound. Burgeoning Moonshine Music signed Skychurch in 1994 and released "Deus" and another single, "Creation", followed in 1995 by Skychurch's first full-length ensemble LP, "knowoneness."

During the “knowoneness” sessions, James met Roxanne Morganstern. They were friends for a year before she finally auditioned for a spot in the band. Impressed with her unique and powerful talent, James immediately brought her into the project and, even though it shocked his band mates, shared the spotlight with her the very next week in front of 5,000 fans. The vocal chemistry worked. Fans loved it. They created a magical live show, which instantly catapulted them even further into the spotlight.

After playing hundreds of concerts and festivals that drew crowds in excess of 80,000, Electric Skychurch built a solid grassroots following. During the long tour, James and Roxanne were filmed by director John Reese for interviews that became part of the feature documentary "Better Living Through Circuitry," giving the world a refreshingly honest portrait of the producer and his band mates. The film remains popular and continues to run on the major cable networks worldwide, and has drawn mainstream fans of all ages to the band.

If you haven’t come across John B in one of his many musical guises over the past decade,
where have you been? Classically trained at a young age, this British superproducer has
gone on to become one of the most eclectic and unique individuals working within elec-
tronic music today. Consistently escaping categorization, John’s genre-defying catalogue
spans the worlds of Electro, Trance and Drum & Bass, and a few other spaces across the
bpm spectrum.
John’s career began in illustrious style as the one and only Goldie picked up on this mild-
mannered, blonde-locked science graduate and his distinctive drum and bass beat con-
structions, and he was signed to the legendary Metalheadz label. Tracks such as the
euphoric “Up All Night” have become instant classics in the canon of drum and bass, and
repeatedly smashed dancefloors worldwide. John B quickly became a headlining name on
flyers across the globe, and his touring schedule has been non-stop ever since. Establish-
ing his own stable of labels (Beta Recordings, Tangent, Chihuahua and Nu_Electro) to
reflect his diverse tastes from liquid funk to Latin, provided the perfect platform for
John’s groundbreaking sonic experimentation to develop.

SwitchFocus is a breakbeat techno band currently based in San Francisco CA. Alex Meu and Mico Mills are the masters of the peak-hour mayhem. They have redefined "Live PA" as a true dancefloor experience. Having grown up in the underground rave era of the early 90's, SwitchFocus were no strangers to the concept of high wattage party music. The sounds of techno pioneers like Dj ESP and Hyperactive inspired their first live pa project under the name"Two Point Theory". The Woody McBride "Wall of Sound" events, Even Further Massives, and Drop Bass parties were among the first spots where Meu and Mills learned the dynamics of rocking the crowd. Today, SwitchFocus tours independently to many major cities in the US and Canada alongside acts like Dj Hurricane, Skylab 2000, Dave Trance, and Terry Mullan.

around
the world. Freak will be putting out an E.P. consisting of GEIN and
Arsenic's "b", "The Sermon", and two brand new, still unfinished ones.
Also on the chopping block, GEIN is remixing Dylan's classic darkstepper
"Witchcraft", as well as Technical Itch's "Hex", two massive undertaking
that they
believe will raise the bar one step further. Also lined up are
collaborations with
the likes of the mighty Evol Intent,releases on Tech Freak & Defcom
Recordings, and more
output on Habit / Freak. Plus let us not forget the SKINSUIT SESSIONS!


Spree & ADB
http://www.spreeandadb.com/
Spree has been one of the top High-Energy Dance providers in North America for the past 7 years running. He's painted smiles across the faces of thousands of kids as a headliner in just about every major US and Canadian city in that time.
Spree has put out dozens studio mixed compilations in the past 6 years, ranging from 1994/95 style breakbeat/piano filled hardcore to the latest up to date anthems. All of these mixes are available online for free download.

MC ADB, AKA Adrian Basford, is an English old school raver stuck in the corn. Currently hiding in Lincoln NE, Adrian works part-time and is a full-time student at Doane studying "organizational communications". Whilst his weekends consist on the road MC'ing and causing general rowdiness. You have probably seen ADB flying up and down the stage at an event somewhere in the midwest. Between his lyrical mastery and his energetic performances, he always finds time to enjoy what gives him inspiration entertaining a crowd.



Riot Squad
http://www.myspace.com/riotsquadvc
In feb of 2005 after dj basic got tazed in the neck by police at mardi gras djs ,lil ron , simply butta, bassik, and murda came together and formed the riot squad. a mesh of dark tech jump turntabelistic drum and bass these guys are rockin shows all over the south and are a show not to be misseed. Now some of you might already know who these guys are, but for those of you who don’t, here’s a quick rundown. These guys are BAD arse!!! riot squad is not a complete stranger to any scene. You might remember some members from parties at the Masquerade, the Atrium, or even the Globe they are basically known for there ill techniques and a Hip Hop/Drum and Bass style. Don’t expect to not get a show here folks, these guys are one hell of a crew. they've played with all the great Drum Bass DJ’s, Diesel Boy, Dara, hype, etc... All the great turntablists, Q-bert, Immortal, Swamp, etc… members won battles all over the south including the South Guitar Center Battle, the 12inch Allstar’s Battle, and the Fademaster’s Battles. they a regular at many clubs throughout the south, the State Palace in New Orleans, Lavela in Panama City, Sloss Furnace in Birmingham, etc…



Unkl Ryan
http://www.myspace.com/unklryan
Upon arriving at this planet on 4-20 Unkl Ryan began emanating heavy beats and otherworldly grooves telling of far off places. He has since become fixture of the electronic scene in the south east, while his studio skills are in depand across the country. Don't let this mild mannered engineer fool you, the mood quickly turns to madness when he's on the turntables. Unkl Ryan is gauranteed to get any floor moving with his high energy stylings.

This has been true, however she will be performiong at this one! She joined in for the Denver show last month (that is what the pics on the post are from) and by all accounts it was amazing so they wanted to take it to the Cave=D
I expect this performance to be an enlightening experience for everyone, myself included.
 
yippie!!!

I am so happy that this was a case....there was a part of me that was secretly disappointed at the idea of not getting to see her, but now I breathe the biggest sigh of relief!!! WHEW!!!

thanks again for what I know is going to be a huge spiritual moment for me....I cannot wait!!!
