By dizzurt at January 12, 2012 | 10:24 am | 0 Comment
Each year around winter time, there is this sort of buzz in the air. Yes, yes, I know about the holidays and college vacation time with families and all that other stuff going on. However, for New Yorkers and New Englanders alike, this buzz rings especially loud and true immediately following Christmas up until New Years Eve; and even louder if you are an electronic music more...

Emissions: A Celebration of West Coast Bass Culture

When preparing for an outing into the great outdoors, one should know that the amount of fun they'll have is in direct correlation to the level of comfort one maintains while raging in the woods. This boils down to overall preparedness and the ability to maintain a shaded, dry and well fed home camp. You also need whats needed to keep one going for the duration, with a more...

NYE 2011 – Sea of Dreams
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at March 21, 2011 | 9:04 am | 1 Comments
After a week-long nightmare with the airlines with multiple flight cancellations and hours of being on hold, we were there. As our flight descended into a cool and wet San Francisco Airport I exhaled a long awaited sigh of release knowing that there was little that could prevent us from splashing headfirst into a cosmically orchestrated orgy of psychedelic sights and more...

New Years Eve is a party goers long awaited last chance to end the year bigger, harder, and badder than could be done in the 12 months leading up to the anticipated night. It is a night of high spirits, lowered inhibitions, and high hopes for a happy, healthy, and rage filled annum to come. If this year's SEA Of DREAMS is anything like last year's, it will be jam more...
Vibesquad and Heyoka: Crunkin ‘n Squishin at the ATL
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at November 10, 2010 | 8:42 am | 1 Comments
Busy playing a sparsely populated dance floor at an event for the University, I missed the beginning of Heyoka's set, and all of Resident Anti-Hero's opening set (site). I cannot say that I was at a loss for being absent from the beginning of his seamless onslaught of truly original riddims, however, since I was excited to lend my efforts to the local KRFH station more...
Beats Antique Blind Threshold Tour Hits Arcata, CA 9/25/10
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at October 11, 2010 | 8:53 am | 0 Comment
Taking a walk through downtown Arcata in the weeks prior to the evening's event, one would have to be blind not to know that Beats Antique and Lynx were coming to seduce the small city's most beautiful, bizarre and spaced out spunsters into the Arcata Theater Lounge. The poles of the streets radiating from the college town's epicenter displayed, relentlessly, the more...

The wild West Coast of Humboldt county gets whomped out without a doubt from time to time, with the non-stop assault of DJs that frequent Humboldt County from all over the world. However, the night of August 15th would offer something a bit more unique. As computer based performances are becoming the most popular format for DJ's on the scene, its nice to see some acts more...

Ana Sia in Missoula, MT 7/17
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at July 28, 2010 | 12:05 am | 1 Comments
"Bass to the Rescue in the Rocky Mountains" With the final poi ball extinguished I gave two mighty crow calls of approval, which resonated through the alleyway from my smoking perch on a staircase, overlooking the sweaty masses. Ana Sia had just finished a killer hour and a half Ableton set in which she expertly mixed elements of trip-hop, dub step, ghetto more...

Boing Boing Boing v3.0 (SkyHigh with Nexus)
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at June 14, 2010 | 9:49 am | 3 Comments
When I was told about an event put on by NEXUS involving their Funktion One sound system, a warehouse stocked wall to wall with trampolines and a 6 person coed dodgeball tournament, I was hesitant to believe it (much less consider driving the 14 hour round trip to Santa Clara, CA for one night). Upon further investigation, and a little arm twisting by my comrade more...
Bluetech Presents: Satori Social Club (Live Band) w/ Ott in Arcata, CA 4/22
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at May 19, 2010 | 7:16 pm | 4 Comments
It was four twenty week in the Emerald Trinity, and residents of our tiny social niche in the North Coast celebrated heartily, with a week long string of shows and events paying homage to the Ganja Gods. Like an overdue tsunami triggered by the San Andreas fault off shore, a wave of LSD hit the area, and not a moment too soon. The heady Humboldt community went into more...

By D~R Dyaphonoyze at May 16, 2010 | 11:44 am | 0 Comment
While being overwhelmed by the feeling of death by fever during last summer's Camp Bisco 8 music festival, I was forced to miss out on seeing Raja Ram and Simon Posford (Shpongle) perform together, as they rarely do in the U.S. Needless to say, my anticipation to make up for this past summer's absence from entering Shpongolia grew for weeks before April 29th's jam-packed more...
RJD2 Live Band w/ Busdriver @ Red Fox Tavern 4/8/10

Humboldt county, north of the Lost Coast, east of the Sierra Nevadas, and smack dab in the middle of pristine redwoods, is no doubt a special place. Chock full of natural wonder, the epicenter of a liberal cultural bubble, and the site of a growing electronic music scene where dubstep DJs are hired for high school dances. Visitors come from all over the world to more...

MartyParty w/ David Starfire @ Arcata Theatre Lounge, Humboldt, CA – Interview & Review
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at April 16, 2010 | 4:35 pm | 0 Comment
Spirits were high in Arcata last week as the good people at Rebel Bass Collective were more than happy to provide another bass-filled Saturday night, with the genre bending mashups of David Starfire and the bass heavy riddims of Marty Party. Patrons who were smart enough to arrive before 11pm got in for 10 bucks, and were treated to the familiar sounds of more...
EOTO: Two Guys, Two Shows, Two Cities, Too Sick (Part 2)

Being back in the Emerald Trinity was comforting, and there was no doubt that EOTO was about to bring another night of hard womps and steady rhythms to the heady Humboldt public. The night began in quite a rush; running errands, picking people up for the show... my anticipation for round two of the EOTO run mounting with every passing minute. On the way down, the mood more...

EOTO: Two Guys, Two Shows, Two Cities, Too Sick… (Part 1)
By D~R Dyaphonoyze at April 4, 2010 | 9:42 pm | 2 Comments
We left Arcata late which, considering how we do things in Humboldt County, is right on time. Driving down Highway 101 through the avenue of the giant Redwood grove, I was looking forward to seeing giants of another variety, the giants of an ever changing genre and ever evolving sound; one that can never be imitated. Despite valiant efforts, no rage supplies more...
