* Thank you to all the Locals who have submitted mixes. We will be announcing the locals for each party soon. None of the local djs playing have been contacted yet so don’t worry if you haven’t been contacted yet.

btw. pt 1: I have been listening to so many good DnB/Dance music mixes because of your submissions. You are some of the most talented DJs I’ve had the pleasure of listening to and can’t wait to put you all on.

btw pt. 2: Local djs who keep the word of the party going online and come out to the party even when they aren’t playing will be hooked up faster and open for bigger djs. Yeah I said it. But we’re trying to build a new scene and supporting everyone(even when your not playing) is the right way to do it. Believe me, I know. – Ack !

DJ MICRO
Caffine recordings : http://www.djmicro.com : myspace.com/micro – New York
Internationally acclaimed as one of the US’s premiere dance music producers and remixers, there are few artists who can match DJ Micro’s credentials. Playing alongside East coast DJs Frankie Bones, Scott Henry, Adam X, James Christian, and Onionz, Micro put the New York underground on the global dance map with his energetic fusion of styles which is described by URB magazine”… spiced with rippling acid melodies and plenty of surging drum rolls.” With over thirteen years behind the turntables, Micro’s versatility and ability to whip dance floors into a frenzy with his smooth mixes and superb sense of groove has made him a dance music sensation. As a natural progression from his success as a DJ, Micro joined with Vicious Vic under the pseudonym ‘Progression’ to produce a series of hugely successful remixes and original works. The duo became overnight heroes in the international dance scene following the release of their massive debut single ‘Reach Further’ which became an instant club smash. The increasingly sought after duo were soon commissioned to remix artists from Paradise 3001 and Joe T. Vanelli to Masters at Work, as well as a wickedly groovy remix of the Dado’s ‘X Files’ theme. In 1996, Progression’s first album ‘Progress Into Our Future’ on Sorted Records received an overwhelming response and was described by Mixmag as “seamlessly mixed and a hardcore good time.” Continuing to explore new musical horizons, Micro produced a successive string of hits for some of the world’s most respected labels including the UK’s Open label formed by the Ministry of Sound, Strictly Rhythm, Nervous/Sorted, Adrenalin, and Black Sunshine. With Micro’s visibility and reputation continuing to grow, he’s appeared at clubs and raves worldwide including tours of the US, Japan, England, Canada, and Brazil. In addition, Micro has produced a number of widely acclaimed mixed CDs including ‘Coast to Coast,’ (ESP-SUN), ‘Micro Tech Mix’ , ‘Micro Tech Mix version 2.0’, and ‘Techmix 2000’. (Moonshine). In addition to his extraordinary success as a producer and re-mixer, Micro’s thirst for new sounds and a desire to push musical boundaries led him to form the New York underground label Caffeine Records which quickly gained international attention with its top shelf selection of the freshest sounds from US and European artists. The label also spawned the longtime New York weekly club and East Coast dance institution Caffeine, where resident main man Micro rocked energetic capacity crowds. This acclaimed DJ, re-mixer, producer, and label founder once described by URB as the “techno maestro” and by XLR8TR as “unleashing a groove too thick to mention” never fails to conjure an ecstatic night of pumping progressive sounds on the dance floor.
