PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD!
:: Announcement from True Productions and The Asylum NightClub ::
In recent events with the City of Springfield(and its various entities) and our establishment we must announce that our club will be unable to host patrons until the earliest we can reach our building code requirements. These requirements are not major code violations, as you may have been led to believe, but we are unable to reach these requirements until next week at the earliest, due to time constraints.
However, we at True Productions will be working hard to make sure that the Asylum Nightclub will come back stronger and safer than ever.
We'd like to thank those that continue to come out week after week to enjoy our events at the Asylum and hope to see you next week at Get Lucky Again!
MORE UPDATES SOON!

True Productions presents:
THE WORLD OF DRUM N' BASS
SATURDAY - MARCH 13TH
THE ASYLUM NIGHTCLUB
SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS
// Featuring:
======( Area 1 - all main stage Drum n' Bass)======
// hosted by:
MC SKIBADEE
(www.skibadee.com) UK
A young MC Skibadee took the scene by storm when he started on Kool FM a few
years back. Since then he has turned the emcee'ing world upside down with
his inimitable blend of double time lyrics leaving crowds screaming for more
everywhere he goes. Not content with picking up countless Best MC awards he
has turned his hand to production and his work with Can-I-Bus, Lil Kim and
Romeo is just the start of what promises to be a very long and flourishing
career.
featuring dj's:
GROOVERIDER (3:00-4:30)
(grooverider.com) UK
Groove has been dubbed the godfather for many years now, after some 17 years
in the game he's still going strong, and still pushing boundaries. There is
not an organization worth it's weight in gold that this man hasn't played
for over the years. Quite simply, we like to call this man foundation.
DJ SS (1:15-2:30)
(dj-ss.com) UK
Head honcho of Formation Records and the World of Drum & Bass brand, this
man is responsible for a hell of a lot when it comes to drum & bass. Whether
it be
producing some of the all-time classic tracks that have graced dancefloors
the world over, discovering some of the scene's hottest stars, or bringing
drum & bass to some very far flung corners of the globe this man has done it
all. Quite simply - a living legend!
SHY FX (12:00-1:15)
(shyfxandtpower.com - ebony recordings) UK
From an early age Shy FX has been causing havoc on many a dance floor. From
early numbers such as Original Nuttah, This Style, and Funkin Em Up to the
more current like Number One Murderation, and Ra to name but a few, the aim
has always been the same - dancefloor devasta-tion. In 2002 he and studio
partner T Power pushed drum & bass into the mainstream to much acclaim with
Shake Ya Body, closely followed by Don't Wanna Know and Feeling You. with
busy DJing and production schedules, this man means business in 2004.
TWISTED INDIVIDUAL (4:30-6:00)
(formationrecords.com) UK
Twisted's somewhat off-the wall persona and even more off-the-wall track
titles have certainly paid dividends over the last year or so. With many
productions for the
Formation Records camp, most notably his controversial 'Bandwagon Blues'. In
December 2003 he picked up awards for best track and best producer at the
Accelerated Culture Awards. 2004 certainly looks bright.
KILLA KELA & MC TRIP (2:30-3:00)
(www.spitkingdom.com) UK *live performance !!*
Spit Kingdom aka Killa Kela, Skeletrik, and MC Trip is an awesome 3 man
tag-team stage show taking audiences through combinations of beatboxing,
Mcing and Djing, from hip-hop, ragga and breaks right through to drum n bass
in what was described as most exciting stage show of the year by Time Out,
London. In 2003 they clocked up over 100 world-wide shows, including 2
sold-out shows in Hong Kong, headlining pan-European tours, support tours
with the likes of Busta Rhymes, The Neptunes & N*E*R*D, Redman, The Streets
and PublicEnemy to name a few. 2003 was the break through... 2004 is
domination.

The Roots, Company Flow, Busta Rymes, Burning Spear, Souls of Mischief,
Cannibal Ox, KRS-One, Mos Def and Talib Kweli, Roni Size Reprazent,
Tortoise, Zap Mama and many, many more. As a lyricist, Mr. Lif offers
Hip-Hop through the eyes of an intelligent man who is passionate about his
art form. He commands the attention of his peers and seeks to inspire them
to search for Knowledge of Self. Within one song, he may launch an attack on
the American educational system while delivering an onslaught of battle
rhymes that will make Hip Hop fans reminiscent of park jams back in '88. Mr.
Lif uses a powerful command of vocabulary to create vast and precise images.
Listeners receive an intense lyrical package that contains highly visual
content delivered via polyrhythmic flows, a voice full of character and
authority, as well as a compelling sincerity that will blow your mind.
AKROBATIK (1:00-2:30)
