Come see why Trajikk is one of Denver's top DJs at SKYLAB. Trajikk If you are looking for true and captivating music, look no further than Beta nightclub resident Jontron. He got his start in DJing when he was only 13-years-old and since grown to be one of Denver's hottest producers and most recognized DJs. He has collaborated with some of the biggest international DJs to create a uniquely deep and energetic sound. We are certain that Jontron will make the stars come alive with his impassioned sound at SKYLAB. You do not want to miss this. Jontron Fury, or Steve Blakley, was first introduced to electronic music while he was a professional snowboarder in the early nineties when he attended his first raves. Unwilling to remain simply a spectator, he purchased turntables and began to play the sounds of hardcore U.K. breakbeats at events in Denver. His sound later transformed in an early protoype of Jungle. Fury now designs for and runs the internationally-renowned graphic design company, The Firm Graphics. He is a resident for Insomniac's drum&bass division, Bassrush, and runs Reload Productions, a drum&bass promotion company in Denver. If you are looking for some heavy hitting drum&bass, Fury is a must-see at SKYLAB. His beats and Fury bass absolutely dominate the dance floor! Sureshot is a force to be reckoned with in the Denver bass music scene with an innate ability to create dance floor havoc everytime he takes the decks. He has spun at Beta since its opening, landed a Reload residency in 2008, and has played at all the big parties in the state. He also ran a drum & bass weekly for two years where he brought out some of the biggest names in the industry. Today, Sureshot continues to dominate dance floors with his slaughtering basslines and unrelenting beats. Sureshot Although only 23-years-old, Joman has been producing for almost a decade. He was signed to Velcro City Records in 2008, has had several tracks on the top 100 Beatport Charts, and has played at major festivals including Electric Daisy Carnival and Global Dance Festival. Last year, he participated in Beatportal's “Deadmau5 – The Ultimate Remix Challenge,” in which artists were pitted against each other to produce their best remix , “SOFI Needs A Ladder.” His remix was selected as one of the 10 semifinalists and became the #1 most downloaded remix of the song on Soundcloud.

  • Satan's Trance Media & Magic Final Exam Colleen Viana 12
    SATAN’S TRANCE MEDIA & MAGIC FINAL EXAM https://vimeo.com/55339082 COLLEEN VIANA 12/11/12 Sensation can be defined as the mediation of body and world. It enforces and impacts a premonition of what our bodies experience upon some type of contact. Thus, it allows the body to be opened up to other forces and becomings that affirm in and as the future. This concept, posed by Elizabeth Grosz in Chaos, Territory, Art: Deleuze and the Framing of the Earth, is quite eminent in the subject of magic. The quandry of it as the mediation of object and experience, or science and religion, is what drew me to this video experimentation of the mediations created by media in occult and horror film. While sensation is, perhaps, the only state of consciousness that is impossible to scientifically measure, as are the limits of magic, I find it more valuable to visually see how it can be created/manipulated. The juxtaposition of horror film/television clips, and electronic music (with cosmological and haunting characteristics), and documentary footage from raves/electronic music festivals (that possess qualities of the occult) is experimented in this project. The latter adds an extra layer to this research, paralleling a cultural music phenomenon with the magical representations and rites defined by Mauss. With these media devices combined, I hope to embody this sensory experience that Grosz explains “as the contraction of vibrations...the forces of becoming-other” (Grosz, 80-1). Essentially, how can we experience Hollywood-defined magic and the magic associated with music and rave culture differently? In this video montage, I aim to highlight the three components of magic presented in Mauss’ A General Theory of Magic, in relation to the electronic dance music (EDM) culture.

  • Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: an Analysis Into Graphic Design's
    Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres by Vivian Le A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems (Honors Scholar) Presented May 29, 2020 Commencement June 2020 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Vivian Le for the degree of Honors Baccalaureate of Science in Accounting and Business Information Systems presented on May 29, 2020. Title: Visual Metaphors on Album Covers: An Analysis into Graphic Design’s Effectiveness at Conveying Music Genres. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Ryann Reynolds-McIlnay The rise of digital streaming has largely impacted the way the average listener consumes music. Consequentially, while the role of album art has evolved to meet the changes in music technology, it is hard to measure the effect of digital streaming on modern album art. This research seeks to determine whether or not graphic design still plays a role in marketing information about the music, such as its genre, to the consumer. It does so through two studies: 1. A computer visual analysis that measures color dominance of an image, and 2. A mixed-design lab experiment with volunteer participants who attempt to assess the genre of a given album. Findings from the first study show that color scheme models created from album samples cannot be used to predict the genre of an album. Further findings from the second theory show that consumers pay a significant amount of attention to album covers, enough to be able to correctly assess the genre of an album most of the time.

  • Kaskade Biography
    In 2003, Ryan Raddon, more commonly known by his fans as the famous house and trance artist Kaskade, developed his alter ego with the debut of his first hit album “It’s You, It’s Me.” Originally from Chicago, Kaskade made his way from the windy city to New York, where he started his career as a DJ. He then moved to Salt Lake City, where he continued to explore DJing and started his own record label, Mechanized Records. In addition to his personal endeavors, Kaskade began collaborating with other professionals in the industry and sold a few tracks to Chris Smith, an A&R director for an up-and-coming house label in San Francisco, California. It wasn’t long before Kaskade moved to San Francisco, where he was hired to assist Smith at OM Records. After years of traveling around the United States, Kaskade discovered his love for house music in the world of electronic dance music. His full-fledged fame surfaced with the release of his album “It’s You, It’s Me” in 2003 and the subsequent hits that followed, including “In the Moment,” which was released in 2004. Kaskade continued to climb the charts as one of the industry’s most popular house DJs with the release of “Love Mysterious” in 2006, “Strobelight Seduction” in 2008, “Dynasty” in 2010, and “Fire & Ice” in 2011. In addition to his roster of unparalleled musical tracks, Kaskade strives to make a name for himself as one of the top live performers in the industry. Thus far, he has performed at several Insomniac events, including Electric Daisy Carnival in 2010, and he will be headlining at Insomniac’s new Christmas music festival Winter Wonderland in 2012.

  • Insomniac's 2013 Electric Daisy Carnival, Las Vegas Generated More Than $278 Million in Three Days for Local Economy
    Source : Kirvin Doak Communications 04 déc. 2013 15h50 HE Insomniac's 2013 Electric Daisy Carnival, Las Vegas Generated More Than $278 Million in Three Days for Local Economy Over Three Years, EDC Las Vegas Has Generated More Than $621 Million for Clark County, Nev. LAS VEGAS, NV--(Marketwired - Dec 4, 2013) - The three-day Electric Daisy Carnival (EDC) held at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway in June 2013 pumped an estimated $278 million into the Clark County economy, according to an economic impact report released today by Beacon Economics, LLC. With incredible growth since its premiere in Las Vegas in 2011, Insomniac has generated more than $621 million dollars for the Las Vegas economy. The study, commissioned by Insomniac, revealed that the third annual event generated $136.9 million in attendee spending, a 38 percent increase from the 2012 event. Nearly 95 percent of attendees traveled from outside the Las Vegas area for the event, accounting for an estimated 92,000 hotel room nights alone, generating $25 million in accommodations. Additionally, fans spent more than $45 million on food and beverage, $22.1 million in transportation, $19.6 million in gaming, $13.1 million in entertainment and $11.8 million on retail spending. "Each year our goal with EDC Las Vegas is to improve the fan experience and I'm so happy that, as we continue to improve and grow, that Clark County continues to benefit too," said Pasquale Rotella, founder and CEO of Insomniac. "The Insomniac family and our fans have truly embraced Las Vegas as our home during EDC Week in the City, and the idea that the fans get to have fun while also creating hundreds of millions of dollars for the local economy is truly a win-win situation.

  • The Queer of Color Sound Economy in Electronic Dance Music
    The Queer of Color Sound Economy in Electronic Dance Music Blair Black Within electronic dance music cultures (EDMCs), musicality and experi- mentation have been indebted to black and Latinx DJs of color since its inception in the 1980s. Even today, queer DJs of color continue to push the envelope of experimental EDM by showcasing dance music from the “global south,” centering remix styles that border between hip hop and EDM, and sampling cultural references popular in queer communities of color. This article explores music’s complex entanglements with identity and community for queer people of color in underground electronic dance music scenes. To be specific, the individuals within these communities self-identify as racial/ethnic minorities on the genderqueer spectrum of non-normative gender and sexual identities (gay/lesbian, trans, non- binary, etc.). Moreover, I argue that these socio-economic positions act as an impetus of a sound economy – the shared system of socio-cultural aesthetics – for queer communities of color in EDM. The first section dis- cusses the identity politics that underlie this sound economy by tracing how intertextuality allows DJs to display these minoritarian1 perspectives. I then highlight why (re)centering racialized queer identities is radical by tracing EDM’s political shifts. Specifically, I highlight how narratives sur- rounding EDM changed due to the demographic turn in Europe during the 1990s. The last section explores the re-emergence of pivotal queer DJs of color and the scenes they founded in Los Angeles, Chicago, and New York by focusing on the flows of culture and people between cities to point to a more extensive global network of racialized queer communities in constant musical and political dialogue.
