Defence episode of September is all about different flavours of Drum & Bass. To Present all the exquisite styles and details this genre holds we have Kluster crew as our guest. Kluster is formed of four established domestic Drum & Bass djs from Tampere who all have worked together prior to forming the crew. Each dj of the Kluster has his own sub-genre as his speciality and a distinctive style to play records. If you've ever wondered what is Drum & Bass, this is the time to educate yourself a bit. Join us and enjoy with us.
The night is kicked off at 7:00 pm with Defence Influences warming up the venue with a wide variety of beats, sounds and styles.
Elysion (Kluster, Litku)
Elysion got sucked into the world of electronic music at his early teens by such artists as The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Fatboy Slim and Apollo 440. He started djing and promoting events at the break of the millennia in Lahti with MK-Ultra (http://auralcandy.net/), his partner in crime at that time. After moving to Tampere Elysion joined the local EDM collective Spinni and continued from where he left of in Lahti.
During his career Elysion has hosted two radio shows, Northern Hemispere on DigitalVibes and the ongoing Concussion Show (http://concussioncrew.info/radio) on NuBreaks.com. Elysion has starred in numerous event line ups throughout southern Finland and his sets have been featured on podcasts such as the Kongkast (http://kongkretebass.com/) in Hong Kong. Currently Elysion also holds the residency at Concussion and Litku club nights in Tampere.
The main characteristic of Elysion's djing is the huge amount of energy he pushes into his sets with sharp mixes, high-octane performance and diverse track selection of premium Drum & Bass tracks. He focuses only on the essential - ensuring the dance floor is packed and jumping!
GR (Kluster, Litku)
http://www.grdeejay.com/
Gr aka Timppa is a passionate Drum & Bass dj originating from Kuopio and nowadays settled in Tampere. While other djs are moving more and more towards digital era Gr likes to hold it down on vinyl. Last two years have been quite a ride for Gr. While co-hosting a Drum & Bass club called Litku with Nocomply & Elysion at Tampere he's also been playing his way through the country and filling guest spots in Helsinki, Turku & Kajaani to name a few. When Gr is on the decks you can expect groovy, rolling, good Drum & Bass!
Lincs (Kluster, Litku)
Originating from Vaasa, Lincs has been mixing for a few years now. Newest member of the Kluster crew and maybe also the freshest. When he is behind the decks, you can expect something massive. Only the finest deep and dark Drum & Bass vibes with rhythmic beats and tough basslines will blast through the speakers. Lincs has the deepest rollers and hardest bangers new Drum & Bass scene can offer.
Keep it deep, fresh and danceable!
Nocomply (Kluster, Litku)
From the smoothest crowd igniting rollers to the heaviest face-melting basslines, Nocomply has it all. During his set tempo might vary but the general vibe & sound stays the same, aiming for only one goal: total dancefloor dominance. Despite his young age, he has already shared stages with some of the biggest names in the game like Noisia, Pendulum, Grooverider and LTJ Bukem - just to name a few - and not forgetting the Finland's bass music elite.
