But first, I’m happy to be bringing two of the best DJs BC has to offer to Victoria, Friday January 16th 2009. Stickybuds and Jpod The Beat Chef have been slaying crowds for years at Shambhala as the Stickypod Connection, combining self produced beats with turntablism and on the fly remixing to make your jaw drop and your feet move. I’m really excited for this show, please come check it out:

CYA ON THE DANCEFLOOR

Set of the night goes to Dust for laying down a slick old school prog set on mostly vinyl, full of classics that i haven’t heard in years but knew every beat of from back in the old school glory days of trance.

Such an awesome vibe, it was a lovefest, people were being so free and unihibited, i was getting warm fuzzies all night watching people expand their hearts to the size of the room and beyond. the trance n’ intentional dance scene here is wonderful, i am happy to have found an appreciative crowd for these sounds. BTW, I have lots more great tracks from that era/style to showcase, no bookings currently lined up, available to do some chakra poppin on the island or coast anytime again soon!)

Oh, also, I got a myspace, add me if you use that to keep up!

GREETINGS FROM SPACELAB! Prepare yourself, human. Even as we speak, SpaceLab is orbiting your tiny blue planet, preparing to transport you to another dimension with wave after wave of powerful, transporting beats, soaring, heart-thawing melodies, hallucinatory visuals and love sweet love. The countdown is on.

At 22:00 hr Friday, November 14, 2008, SpaceLab will release “LITTLE GREEN MEN” on a secure (and kick ass!) indoor venue on acres of private property located within 25 minutes of the quaint city-state of Victoria. Precise coordinates will be provided on the 14th, via the SpaceLab email list. To get on the list, send a spacemail to Spacelab@rock.com

As always, we implore you to come of your own volition. When angered, Little Green Men can be very convincing, with the abductions and the heat rays and the probes and the flying saucer armadas … so let’s not disappoint them.

MISSION CONTROL has declared that the theme for this event will be: the additive primary colour evoked by light having a spectrum dominated by energy with a wavelength of roughly 520-570 nm. Also known as: GREEN.

Your share of the costs is $20 in advance from Shift (574 Johnson Street), $25 at the Entrance Portal. All profits from this event will fund SpaceLab’s favourite Little Green Man and Woman, PHILIPPE LUCAS and SONYA CHANDLER, in their campaign for Victoria city council on behalf of the civic Green Party. Philippe is a familiar, friendly face to all late-night dancers, and a tireless champion for progressive change for all humans. To learn more about the campaign, visit: http://www.vicgreens.com/

SPACELAB is honoured to present an interstellar line-up of some of the most exciting and transporting LITTLE GREEN DJs ever born, bred, cloned, mutated or soldered together:

10-12 DESUNOS Rainbow Cathedral :: www.rainbowcathedral.com

Ever since he dumped that suspicious “cargo” in the Kessel Run with an Imperial cruiser breathing down his neck, DESUNOS has been a man on the run. Alien bounty hunters track his every move. He’s wanted dead-or-alive in seven star sectors. But nothing could stop this infamous space pirate from returning to Earth, his smuggler’s compartments packed with his trademark stash of potent, bass-heavy funk mayhem. Both hands on the decks, one eye on the nearest exit, and that inimitable cocky grin — make sure you catch this living legend before he’s encased in solid carbonite …

12-2 B.R.I.D.E.N. Stereoshift Productions :: stereoshift.org

The Entity known as B.R.I.D.E.N. is an awesome, hypnotically throbbing dark star of vastly intelligent antimatter. SpaceLab first encountered B.R.I.D.E.N. on the fringes of the Eagle Nebula, consuming entire galaxies whole — and we instantly recognized the untapped dancefloor potential. Channeled through SpaceLab’s intergalactic sound system, B.R.I.D.E.N. is a merciless force of gorgeous, pounding progressive psychedelia for the mind, body & soul. His now legendary set with SpaceLab at Tikal (circa 800 AD) is widely credited with the spontaneous disappearance of the Mayan Empire at the height of its powers. Those in the front row may experience sudden bouts of interdimensional travel. Pack a toothbrush.

2-4 ENTELECHY Returning Saturn :: returningsaturn.com

ENTELECHY’s rise through the DJ gladiator pits of Phobos to the elite nightclubs of Saturn’s Inner Rings is the stuff of legend. Perpetual underdog and crowd favourite, always outnumbered but never outgunned, he earned his stripes on Phobos punching way above his weight, toppling DJs with bigger billing and several more hands (or tentacles) on the decks. What’s the secret? Sheer grit, samurai-like focus, and his uncanny ability to land a wild sucker-punch or left-right-left combo that leaves a crowd dazed, grinning, and gasping for more. Claim some floor-space and hold on for your life: ENTELECHY is all about tapping down deep into those hidden seeds of transformation and power, and this time around, he means business.

4-6 DUST Sunset Collaborations

DUST materialized from the distant future on a desperate mission to save the dancefloor to save the world. Time is running out. An Elimination Squad of Techno Deathbots has pursued him from the future, programmed for annihilation, relentlessly tracking the homing device bolted to his pounding heart. His only hope, and the only hope for humankind, rests on his foolhardy plan to change the course of human history by unleashing a precision bombing pattern of life-altering basslines and heart-opening melodies on just the right night, on just the right crowd. Embrace your destiny, human. The fate of your world may hang in the balance.

6-8 MOUNTAIN EYES Rainbow Cathedral :: www.rainbowcathedral.com

MOUNTAIN EYES’ origins are shrouded in mystery. Some say he is a warrior shaman from the Celestial Realms. Others say he is a Replicant that inexplicably wept real tears of sadness and joy before hatching a bold escape from the Andromeda work colonies to follow the waking soul in his machinery wherever it leads him. Whatever his past, there is no denying the beautiful intensity and haunting power of his late night/early morning sets. MOUNTAIN EYES is the co-founder and architect of the Rainbow Cathedral, the only monument on Earth visible in all 33 dimensions, aside from the mighty MOUNTAIN EYES himself. When he rises like the dawn at 6 am over a grateful tribe of dancers and dreamers, there is simply nowhere else for you to be. Be here.

.:: EARTHDANCE OVERVIEW ::.
——————————————————————————————–
Earthdance, the Global Dance Festival for Peace has grown to become the world’s largest simultaneous music and dance event. Founded in 1996, with 22 cities and 18 countries participating, Earthdance has grown to over 300 locations in 60 countries participating in 2007, with locations ranging from the club-lands of New York to the rainforests of Brazil. Every year, in alignment with the International Day of Peace, over 200,000 people unite in dance with hundreds of thousands more joining online in support of global peace and humanitarian aims.

The defining moment of each Earthdance event is a synchronized link-up, (4pm Pacifc Standard Time) when every event around the world plays a specially produced song called “The Prayer for Peace” at exactly the same time.

Earthdance has been described by the music industry as the “Dance Aid” for the new millennium. The aim of the event is to bring together global communities to create a synchronized global festival and dance event to help fund humanitarian causes and develop an environment of peace throughout the global community.

Earthdance is a non-political event and is organized by Earthdance International, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization.

.:: THE GLOBAL PRAYER FOR PEACE ::.
——————————————————————————————–
The highlight of the Earthdance event is a simultaneous link up, when every event across the world plays the Prayer for Peace.

Morning in the Australian rainforest, midnight in London, and sunrise over the Himalayas, the Prayer for Peace is a profound and powerful moment that unifies our intentions for Worzimld peace and healing. The prayer is as follows:

“We are one global family
All colors, All races
One world united.
We dance for peace and the healing of our planet Earth
Peace for all nations.
Peace for our communities.
And peace within ourselves.
As we join all dance floors across the world,
let us connect heart to heart.
Through our diversity we recognize Unity.
Through our compassion we recognize Peace.
Our love is the power to transform our world
Let us send it out
NOW…”

.:: DELHI 2 DUBLIN | http://www.delhi2dublin.com
Delhi 2 Dublin is the new sound of music! Blending east and west, the five member D2D crew takes listeners on a borderless trip through global sounds and synchronicities. The band fuses the traditional sounds of tabla, dhol, fiddle, and sitar to create a highly charged multi-cultural dance celebration.

Originally formed for a one-shot performance during Vancouver’s Celtic Fest in March of 2006, word of their foot stomping, high energy live set started to spread, and the project soon took a life of it’s own. Recently, D2D were invited to open the massive Canada Day celebrations on Parliament Hill in Ottawa where they collaborated with Irish and Indian dancers and the National Circus School. They have since played many of the West Coast Canadian festivals and are poised to take the act to a global level.

.:: SHANE PHILIP | http://www.shanephilip.com
Swelling in primordial pulses and wholloping whoops, the tacit tones of Shane Philip’s didgeridoo hold the power to still listeners into silence or encourage audiences to rise up in a tribal swell of intoxicating spirit — with sometimes but a heartbeat in between. Meanwhile his hands will be skilfully juggling between shaking up rhythms with his aslatua, driving the dance floor with his djembe and sliding out grooves on his Weissenborn-style guitar while his foot taps in earthshaking electronic kicks wherever they might fit. He is a one-man show weaving sounds that inspire audiences anywhere he goes.
From early childhood moments of drumming kitchen tables and car dashboards, to January 2008’s release of his latest album, “In The Moment” Shane’s musical stylings have been self-taught and self-motivated every step of the way. Borrowing from folk, reggae, blues and beyond, he blurs the boundaries of expectation and music into an altogether unique soundscape. Shanes’ current musical forays tend toward an organic dance sound, and whether playing with spirited mayhem, or with mellow gold, Shane Philip presents songs that are consistently well crafted, while always leaving listeners with a positive afterglow.

.:: ZIMBAMOTO | http://www.myspace.com/ZimbaMoto
Zimbabwean Fire. Based in Vancouver, ZimbaMoto is a collective Afro fusion band with a range from Shona traditional music to contemporary African and Western rhythms. The four piece musical journey begins with Kurai Mubaiwa who hails all the way from Zimbabwe with his Mbira, a melodic 25 key Zimbabwean thumb piano that in Shona mythology is believed to connect the living with the spirit world. The show starts with Kurai wearing his traditional costume of ostrich feather head dress, loin skirt and leg shakers, as he plays the Mbira, singing in his native Shona language. After the traditional set the members of ZimbaMoto join together and take this musical journey to a further height fusing the unique acoustic sounds of the Zimbabwean tenor Marimba and Mbira, with the pulse of the drums, the depth of the bass and rhythmical African guitar riffs.

The band is comprised of four talented world musicians from diverse musical backgrounds: Kurai Mubaiwa has been an established world musician, music teacher and theatre actor since 1994, who has toured across Europe, West Africa, Southern Africa and across Canada opening and/or performing with artists such as Chiwoniso Maraire, Cesaria Evora, Andy Brown, and Oliver Mtukudzi at internationally recognized concerts and festivals. Shambunata has been a professional drummer for 20 years, studying under Lorne Nering with a concentration on musical styles including Jazz, Latin, Classical, Drum’ n Bass, funk/hip-hop and world and performed in New York, Rio de Janeiro, the Mayan Riviera and across Canada. Cameron Hood has been a professional musician and teacher for over 30 years. A multi-instrumentalist and a Juno-nominated artist, Cameron has toured Canada, the US and Europe. Mr. Hood has performed at the Vancouver International Jazz Festival many times, as well as the Alcan Dragon Boat Festival, the Canada Day at Canada Place Celebration, and many other large events. Mark Campbell is a talented guitarist and bassist with several years of experience performing with world music groups.

.:: MASALA | http://www.masalaband.com
From the streets of Victoria, Masala came together as a diverse source of musical energy, accompanying demonstrations and lighting up Victoria and Vancouver community festivals with rhythms from around the world, from Samba to Haitian and African grooves. The band started as an ad hoc group of percussionists from a wide range of musical inspirations who came together to accompany political demonstrations and marches. Since that time, Masala has evolved rapidly into a focused and professional band that infuses local events and festivals with a dynamic rhythm experience.

The music of Masala is inspired by traditional rhythms from West Africa, Haiti, Cuba, Brazil, and the Middle East. The band is honored to have members who are committed students and teachers of these musical traditions. Instrumentation consists of surdo, repinique, snare, timbau, agogo bell, tambourim, shakers, shekere, kenkeni and cuica. The diversity of these musical sources and this unique combination of instruments ensure an exceptional and distinctive sound that will raise the energy of any event.

Masala’s goal is to use music to bring people together in celebration of community and common cultural values. Audience interaction and participation have become essential aspects of a Masala performance. Playing with mobile instruments gives the band liberty to connect and move with the audience on the same level.
