SSP is Proud to bring to you the first in a series of events that will change the way you think of parties!



We’re not sure when or where the meteor hit.  All we know is that it did.  In a universe of infinite size, with an infinite number of planets in an infinite number of galaxies, ours was the one to be destroyed.  I guess destroyed is the wrong word.  The planet is still here.  It’s just no longer habitable on the surface; at least not habitable for us.  So we went underground, the only place we could survive.  Who are we?  We are seemingly the only survivors of a world we read about in books and watch in old movies that we’ve found among what is left.  We are the ones who are left to start it all over.  We are Xero Tribe and this is our story...

This is not just another party. This is a call to all the survivors of the Apocalypse to join in the new era.  This will be a night that you will never forget as we blend lights, music, and visuals into a story that will take you from the destruction of our planet to our coming together in a celebration of life and the forming of the Xero Tribe!

ARTISTS:

ADAM JAY - Indianapolis, IN - Kombination Research, Chroma Recordings

PERFORMING A LIVE PA

Adam Jay has taken the global techno scene by the throat with continuous output on the most respected labels worldwide. He is, without a doubt, the most prolific and accomplished figure in electronic music to come out of Indianapolis. He has toured the world as a DJ and live performer on 5 continents and 19 countries.

His releases are among the favorites of Dave Clarke, Sven Vath, Adam Beyer, Carl Cox and other techno heavyweights. Best known for his releases on revered labels such as Monoid, Pornographic, Primate, Primevil, as well as Ben Sims' own Theory Recordings, Adam's sound can be best defined as soul infused techno with constant movement and motion. With more than 50 twelve-inch vinyl releases to his name, Adam's musical palette as a producer extends well into his selections as a DJ, earning him a bimonthly residency in 2008 at the renowned Tokyo club Studio Cube 326.

VJ BENJI RAMSEY - Indianapolis, IN - AnaphaseDesign

If you've ever been to UnderGround Sound and watched the mind melting visuals then you know exactly what to expect, as he's been doing that show for years.  Performing with 8 projectors on screens, weather balloons, and whatever else he can come up with, his masterful mixing of images, video, and effects will spin you into a frenzy while massaging your subconscious.

Local DJs Listed Alphabetically

Automatic Man - DeadWorld Music - UnitOvOne, Dead Presidents, SpaceAge Pimpin


Bargo - Minimal Techno - Dead Presidents, UnitOvOne RedLabel

An Eastern Kentucky Native and now a St. Louis fixture, Bargo has long been forging his brand.  From his very beginnings as a DJ decades ago, Justin Bargos minimal techno productions have emphasized a blend of soul and experimental rather than glam or pop-appeal.  As a DJ and a producer, Bargos sound carries a hypnotic and erotic appeal.  Drawing from a diverse realm of influences, his productions are architectures of a much deeper, more romantic and sensual touch to push past the boundaries of traditional minimal techno.

Den-E - Trip Hop/Chillout - Jaded Elite


DigiStar - Minimal - SSP, SlantE

DigiStar is certainly no stranger to the underground Techno and Dance scene. She has been an inspiration behind the decks for almost a decade. Her versatility is apparent as she throws down tracks that inspire even the most timid. She got her first taste of playing out in Baltimore at the notorious Shorty's Martini Bar, which is owned by Charles Feelgood. Over the years you have surely seen her move dance floors and cultivate her sound from many venues in this city including The Upstairs Lounge, Urban, 609, Atomic Cowboy, Roxane, Dantes, Xes, Sugar Lounge, The Complex, Just John and many undergound late night events throughout this fine city. Her mission is to make you have a good time and shake your ass, and she will aurally assault you to make it happen. From Techno to Minimal to whatever else makes you shake, you can guarantee one thing: She will MAKE YOU MOVE! (and don't forget the bacon)

Foster - Techno - Swanse Nation, Kindred Groove - http://www.foster303.com

Foster fell in love with electonic dance music even before he heard the first track on a certain rave compilation CD. Known to dance his ass off to the likes of MC Hammer and C&C Music Factory in the 6th grade, Foster was destined to be involved in music for making the masses dance. He taught himself how to DJ when he was a bright-eyed high-schooling lad, travelling to the various raves and parties around the midwest during the 90s. He would sit by and watch the DJs for hours, only to proceed that with some boogieing. He amassed a vast selection of techno tracks on vinyl from 1995 to sometime here in the 21st century when the digital age of DJing rolled in. While his primary DJ setup has become completely digital over the recent years, Foster still uses vinyl along with his other gear but admits records are heavy and in their last days of glory. His source of music is still the same however: various outlets such as the depths of hell and the mothership in orbit.

Jen Z - Breakz - SSP, Fifty Foot Robots

With a little bit of spunk and a lot of raw talent, Jen Z tears up dance floors across the Midwest.  Her timing techniques and immaculate track selection paired with passionate energy have earned her invitations rocking shows as big as Burning Man and WMC.  She was voted the Best St. Louis Breakbeat DJ in 2009 and 2010 and earned 2nd most votes overall in 2010.  This sultry sista is unforgettable so strap on your sneakers and brush up your moves, Jen Z on the decks makes the dance floor move!
