My name is Matt Richard, I live in Marshfield, WI. I'm a trance DJ and no one in this town really enjoys trance except for maybe a few. I do shows at one of the bars in Marshfield, and it would be awesome if like 50 of you guys just came out one weekend and were on the floor, I would die in ecstasy (and the music would do that to you too).
I'm from a production crew up here called Echalon Productions, we're a very small, new company aimed at bringing the trance vibe to the midwest and wresting it away from the cold, dead hands of DnB and Dark Core. (Happy Hardcore can stay, I love those kids.)
LAST WEEKEND'S STORY AND WHY WE NEED YOU:
So, anyway, last weekend I bring all my decks and stuff down to this bar where we had done two great shows so far and we set up and we start. Suddenly there are people coming up to us asking if we can play country and rap or whatever - to which we respond: "No, I'm sorry. We don't have that music with us, and we've spent time putting together these sets. If you don't like it, please try the other clubs and bars in town." Now, this has never happened before when we had done the Thursday shows we had been doing, so they make us turn off the music for 20 minutes so these people can listen to the jukebox blah blah. I'm mad now, and my DJ's walk out. So here I am with a bunch of equipment, 3 hours left in the night and about 2 hours of set. I spun all the way through, but because of those people there was no one on the dance floor and those people left after the 20 minute break.
So, I ask this of you: June 9th will be the next show. It will be held in Marshfield, Wisconsin at the Utopia Lounge (112 east 2nd street, Marshfield WI 54449) starting at 10pm. We'de love to see some trance fans there. I go by the name Freefall and I spin deep, proggy melodic which turns into fast spacey trance through the set. There will be 2 other awesome DJ's there. Pollex-Troy and Faber. We can make this an awesome show if we had people to dance and enjoy it. Places to crash if needed will be available, all we ask are good vibes.
Secondly: If there are any DJ's who spin trance or whatever and are looking for a gig, we are currently looking for timeslots to be filled. Email me at godhatespork@yahoo.com with a link to a demo (but not the demo itself) just use yousendit.com and I'll listen to it and get back to you in two days at the most. If it works, we can give you gas money for the trip here and back.
Thanks everybody for your time,
RAVE ON,
Matt (FreeFall) |
Yeah, unfortunately the mid-west isn't really open to this kinda music in large masses. Too bad I live in the Twin Cities, or I'd definately come out to support the scene. Sorry about the shitty night, hopefully you'll get some people to come to your next show that actually like EDM.
