World class selectors for the evening's festivities:
Paul Johnson [Dust Traxx Chicago/Nocturnal Interludes] Chicago
Born and raised in the birthplace of House Music, Paul Johnson who has over forty five releases (on Dust Traxx Chicago, Undaground Therapy, Cajual/Relief, Dance Mania, Riveria, Full House, Confidential, IHR, Peacefrog, and Djax) and six full-length albums (on Nite Life Collective, Relief, Moody, Peacefrog, and ACV), is one of our hometown heroes. Recording under the aliases Traxxmen with Robert Armani, Brother 2
Brother with Gant Garrard, and Yonkapin on his own making both deep disco house excursions and techno bangers, Paul is known world wide for setting and resetting the direction of House Music time and time again. "Playing With a Rubber Band", "Just Whistle", "Burnin' for Your Yearnin'", and of course, "Get, Get Down" (which, by the way, came out on Moody, Defected, Fuel, Legato, and Rise), have all become part of our hearts, our minds, and our souls. His remix work for Craig Alexander, Gant Garrard, Studio Nova, Stacy Kidd, Joey Beltram, Green Velvet, Armando, CC Penniston, CZR, Ron Trent, K-Alexi, and Steve Poindexter has made their way into all the big jocks boxes, some of them remain there to this day. Presently working on a new full-length album, Paul, when on the decks, promises every time to take us on a Chicago House wild ride as only he can incorporating Gospel House, Garage, and Chicago Trax as only sir Johnson can!
Misstress Barbara - CD release party for "Relentless Beats Vol. 2" on
Moonshine Music / Montreal
Born under the Sagittarius sign in Sicily, Italy, in 1975, Misstress Barbara (4 "s" as a word game between miss and stress) moved to Montreal
at age 8, where she lives since. She holds a degree in Communication Studies, specialized in Cinema, and a glider and cessna plane license.
Her creative involvement with music began when she picked up the drums at the age of 12 and started playing in bands. For the next seven years she was absorbed by classic rock, punk, and all the hard music of the time.
Then in 1994 her musical interests shifted to techno and a year later she traded in her drum kit for two turntables and a mixer. In the spring
of 1996 she got her first booking and hasn't looked back since, playing all the major cities in North America as well as Hong Kong, Philippines, Germany, UK, France, Brasil and soon to dominate the rest of Europe, Asia, and Australia. In just four years of DJing, she's played alongside artists such as Masters at Work, Carl Cox, Sven Vath, Richie Hawtin, and many others. Misstress Barbara's various music tastes brought her to play many important North American clubs such as Twilo (NYC), Velvet Underground (London), Sona (Montreal), Industry (Toronto), Aloca (Sao Paulo), just to name a few. She has also played many big events but one of her highlights was playing at "Fashion Cares" in Toronto; a 5000 person AIDS benefit fashion show party hosted by K.D. Lang and Rupaul.
She likes to describe her main style as "drummy funky pumpin' techno" and her most important musical influences come from the shuffling of
Jazz and from the repetitive grooves of Latin music. Regardless of the influences her typical hard beats have always been the driving force in
her music and have always come first. These elements are immediately recognizable in her productions, yet she can be very different from one production to another but never lose the thread between shifts in sound or style. This is also true for the records she chooses to play and how she builds her full-tilt nights.
Freddy Fresh - CD release party for "Music for Swingers" / MN / London
Freddy Fresh has been producing dance music for 15 years and moving some of the top dance floors around the world for over 20. He has collaborated with international artists such as Fat Boy Slim, The Freestylers, Eminem, Grandmaster Flash, The Sneaker Pimps, and Gus Gus. Through his production work he has been awarded both underground as well as top 40
successes in Europe. His new full length album entitled “Music for Swingers” marks the release of his 6th artist album and is sure to deliver
more of what he does best: funky electro beats with a modern day twist.
