UFO! (SF) - Vision, Airlock, Psycobummer, Heavy Sounds

UFO!, also known as Ed Garro, is an undeniable pioneer in the stateside drum and bass scene. Coming up in the predominately Latin neighborhood in the Mission District of San Francisco California, he has been a dominating force since the 1990s, releasing numerous singles on labels in both the United States and abroad. garnering respect within the stateside scene for his eclectic sound. His creative journey extends beyond the confines of drum and bass, dabbling in and producing various genres over the years. 

A move to New York in 2000 brought UFO! to new musical terrains. Not content to ride on his past rep in drum 'n bass, he began to delve into the nocturnal activities of the New York electro, new wave and dark wave scenes. During his time on the east coast, UFO! saw several of his productions featured in new media forums, including MTV and the hit TV series, CSI:NY. 

UFO! continues to push ahead, carving out a niche on the outer fringes of the music scene in the most impressive way, with committed abandon, joyriding through the crumbling detritus of an industrialized society colonized by data and information—a place where the man is no longer easily distinct from the machine.

Mr. Solve (PDX) - Subduction Audio

Mr. Solve has been a solid staple in the local Portland drum and bass community. Since 2016 he’s been mastermind behind Subduction Audio, which has, over the years hosted many long running events such as DNB Happy Hour, Drum and Bass Park sessions, and currently the event Subduction Audio and Friends which takes place every 2nd Thursday from 6pm-9pm at Living Haus Beer Co. He also has a long running stint with over 890 mixes with the radio show Disorderly Conduct Radio on dnbradio.com. 


A true Portland legend, this longtime dj/producer/selector and promoter of all things drum and bass is sure to bring some heat and set the tone for our headliner.
