House Room:
(2x3 Vs. Sets)
Santiago & Bushido
Potty Mouth Music-Dotbleep
Amidst the countless producers working in the burgeoning house scene, Santiago and Bushido stand apart from all the rest with their unique blend of tech-tinged house beats. Since teaming up as a production duo in 2001, they have help push forward with their innovative style of production which encompasses many influences from the hard hitting to the deep and soulfull.
As producers, Santiago & Bushido draw influences from their straight house background and apply harder and heavier elements to the sound. "We get really deep into the tracks we're producing, flip them and cut them in so many different ways, all to get the heaviest groove possible," Bushido says. Since collaborating, they have dropped numerous EP's and remixes on some of the most well respected labels around including Potty Mouth, Om, Robsoul, Control Recordings and Black Cherry.
"One thing about us is we're not afraid to do a deep track or a totally hardcore track…as long as it works on the dance floor and is pushing the sound forward, it works for us." Given the tech-funk inflection of their forthcoming release, the nastier the duo delves, the better they beat.

A product of the legendary Florida dance scene, Keith MacKenzie has emerged as one of the most active and respected figures of the U.S. breaks scene. The voyage for the Tampa native has circulated around his love of music and is a reflection of his hard work and dedication, as well as his desire to serve as a stateside architect in the constantly evolving world of breaks. In 2004, Keith Mac started illeven:eleven recordings and i11 beatz recordings. Both label\s feature top International Breaks and Electro talent. He has collaborated with some of the heaviest hitters in the breaks scene such as DJ Icey, Deekline, DJ Fixx and Infiniti. Don't miss this very special performance!

As one of the pioneers of the US funky breaks movement, DJ Fixx has proven that he is a breakbeat mainstay. His incredible production prowess and intense DJ performances are evidence of his staying power. Running his own independent monthly breakbeat label, Bottom-End Records, Fixx has dropped tracks consistently over the past three years and continues to do so making it one of the top five best-selling breakbeat labels in the country. Prior to the legacy of Bottom-End, Fixx produced over 75 breakbeat anthems on the classic Kaleidoscope Music label over the span of three years. Add to that his current involvement as half of the production duo 'KMFX,' with his long-time counterpart Keith MacKenzie, and Fixx is a veritable production machine, with tracks out on Keith's Illeven:Eleven Recordings imprint as well. With over 150 12-inch releases out and five massively-distributed CDs under his belt, DJ Fixx has compiled one of the largest bodies of breakbeat production work to date, and with that comes one of the largest followings in the US.

Drum & Bass:
Mendez
(BC PRESENTS / BETA / HALLUCINATION / EVILBASE)
A man whose name never falls off from the drum and bass circuit, either in front or behind the scenes, Mendez stands at the helm of many significant developments for the Drum and Bass Community. Mr. Mendez continues producing and performing in South Florida and abroad and is also developing his electro-hybrid project IOWATEST with production partner Moniker. Their tune Timelapse has already received remix treatment from John B, Monk, Terravita, Orion and Genr8 from Alliance. Timelapse (John B remix) was released in early 2007 on John B's "Electrostep" CD and Vinyl, available through Beta Recordings UK. Mendez teamed up with Vegas(Bad Company UK) to produce "Spy Hunter" for Bad Taste Recordings forthcoming in winter 07-08. The tune was revamped and reworked by Boston's own Terravita, adding vocals by MC Incite insane edits and ofcourse their own signature production. It's getting renamed and re-edited, but hold tight for the Terravita/Mendez/VegasBCuk smasher!
