ALL ABOUT THE MUSIC! Lace up them danicn' shoes... Its about ta get real hectic up in this motha fuck! Your Sneaky Selecta's, Performing On Two Stages... -Main Sneaky Stage- * CHRIS LIBERATOR VS. D.A.V.E. THE DRUMMER * (Stay Up Forever, Hydraulix) - UK Perhaps the most loved and respected Acid Techno D.J. of all time, it is fair to say that Chris has probably played more squat parties, underground raves, technivals, festivals, clubnights, and parties worldwide in his 18 years as a D.J. than any other person alive, and is still completely dedicated to the music and the scene he got involved with when he started doing parties with the other two Liberators, Julian and Aaron back in 1991. D.A.V.E. The Drummer is a man on a mission... He started his career in 1995 as the producer for the infamous Liberator DJs in London, working with them as programmer, mix engineer and collaborator on the Stay Up Forever Label. The label grew, and soon Cluster records was born, along with the sound of London Acid Techno. Many other labels followed, and DAVE recorded and produced on most of them, labels such as Smitten, Routemaster, Raw, Eukatech, TEC, Boscaland, and DAVE's very own HYDRAULIX imprint formed the backbone of the Acid Techno movement, which has now invaded most countries around the globe. With his trademark grooves and crisp productions DAVE has gone on to make some of the most respected classic Acid Techno records in the world. Tonight we will make history... An exclusive tag team set.. Acid techno and hard bass London Acid City Styleeee! * FRANKIE BONES * Old Skool Storm Rave Set * (Sonic Groove) - LA, NYC The Man, The Myth, the legend... That is DJ Frankie Bones. He is best known for bringing the rave culture to the United States after playing at a hangar party in the UK during 1989. Frankie Bones, the first American DJ to play these raves, is considered to be 'The Godfather of American Rave Culture'. He got his first inspiration from his father's vast record collection after his father was murdered. Later on, after he had begun producing records, he was offered a gig to play for 5,000 people in England called "Energy" on the strength of his compositions. As the event started on August 26, 1989, the projected attendance had gone through the roof and Frankie played to 25,000 people while the sun came up. At this event, a fight broke out and Frankie got on a speaker, screaming at the fighters, "If you don't start showing some peace, love, and unity, I'll break your fucking faces". With the subsequent discussion of this event on the Usenet newsgroup alt.rave, Respect was added to the three virtues Frankie was speaking of, creating the hippie-esque raver credo of PLUR: Peace, Love, Unity, and Respect. Being profoundly moved by the experience, he brought it back to Brooklyn in the form of his series of Storm Raves. The Storm Raves events began with only a few hundred people in attendance growing to over 5,000 where the likes of Josh Wink, Doc Martin, Sven Vath, DJ Keoki and Richie Hawtin were able to launch their performances into international careers. The Berlin Love Parade, which is generally considered to be the largest rave in the world, named its 1991 and 1992 Parades after well-known compositions by Frankie Bones. Don't miss out on this exclusive rare classic appearance where Frankie will transform "Sneaky 2nds" back to the days of the Storm Rave! * LENNY DEE * (Industrial Strength Records) - NYC Named No 1 'Hard DJ' by Mixmag in 2004 & 'Best Worldwide Teckno DJ' by the Scottish Dance Music awards 2 years in a row, Lenny Dee founded Industrial Strength in 1991 which was the first Hardcore label in the world.
