Wompin 5! "The Mystic Realm"
WOMPIN 5: "The Mystic Realm"
Who is ready to shake off some of this winter cold? Dec 20th!! Due to a natural phenomenon: a small area in Saint Louis slides off the map & under the radar. The low temperatures, icy winds, and snowy conditions have caused the ice crust to crack and form an *almost* impossible opening.
Those who discover the location of this magical place will have a sanctuary to shake off the cold of winter and let the heat back in; where this frozen reality melts into fantasy. Experience a night where winter dreams come alive once you cross the door. You aren't who you thought you were. They aren't what you thought they were. You aren't even where you expected to be. You are now a part of a new creation, a secret escape, one long ride inside the Mystic Realm. Featuring:

Rather than touting the typical electronic dance music trappings of hyper excess and ego, he chooses to slip back into the shadows, allowing his music to do all the talking and listeners to do a whole lot of wondering. As a result, that music has sent shockwaves throughout the entire genre. Over the course of six full-length albums and a myriad of single releases, he's yielded worldwide hits as diverse as "Ripple", which claimed #1 on Beatport's Download Chart, and "Bombaclaad Star", which reigned supreme as the hub's #1 reggae track of 2011. "Shake My Ass" dominated the drum 'n' bass chart at #1, while his third album Private Riot has become a dubstep classic in its own right, solidifying him as a trailblazer.
However, he's bringing two worlds together into one on his forthcoming seventh album, The Renegade Crusade. Dubstep sorcery and Rastafarian grooves collide and cascade within a genre the dance floor has never seen before. The age of The Renegade begins now. About this alchemical concoction on his forthcoming 2013 effort, he reveals, "It's my attempt to put everything I've done in my musical career into sometype of synthesis. It can be hard and intense, but it can also be beautiful and trippy. This symbiosis is natural. As humans we all have different emotions. The music reflects those emotions. I'm looking to combine all of those catalytic experiences."
In a sense, the artist has been on this path since he was merely four-years-old. Recalling his earliest musical memory growing up in Sweden, he'd crawl to the family piano and play for his parents. A few years later, his dad bought him his first synthesizer, and an entirely new world opened up. After years of successful studio work post-high school, Liquid Stranger was formally born in 2003. His genre fusion began to enchant the entire scene.
He didn't simply transplant himself from Europe to Scottsdale, AZ for music though. There are many facets to the enigma he's built. In between touring and making music, he became a yoga instructor, spending four years in an Ashram. He also continued to evolve in martial arts, a passion he's held since the age of six. His studies extended to Native American medicine, immersing himself in Sun Dance rituals and excursions.
"I've always been a seeker," admits Liquid Stranger. "If I do something, I'm going to try to master it. I've always been interested in pursuits that mirror a bottomless well. They're something you can never really grasp. As a musician, I always try to have as little control over the creative as possible. The less my ego and control issues get in the way, the better the music is that I make. On good days, I'm more of a channel than the brain behind it. Inspiration is such an untamed, crazy, and wild beast."
That's also the best way to describe his live show. He's won over audiences at Electric Daisy Carnival, Voov Experience, Boom Festival, Roskilde, and more. He's also set to mount a full-scale headline tour with the release of The Renegade Crusade.
In many ways, the entire ethos can be traced back to his very moniker. He goes on, "The reality is twofold. Liquid represents something fluid and formless that can be adapted to any given container. In other words, I can go seamlessly between any genre, tempo, emotion, or whatever I want. You never know what I'm going to do next."
The questions will only continue to percolate around Liquid Stranger, but so will the unforgettable and undeniable music

Bio: The unsung hero of underground bass culture, Getter has been taking over stages across the US since 2010, beginning at the ripe young age of 17. Before he could even buy his own pack of cigarettes, Getter was performing across the US and receiving support from genre pioneers DATSIK and Downlink. Fast forward to 2013, Getter has become known for ignoring trends and cutting his own path with ripping, guttural synths and a sprinkling of melody. 2013 has also seen Getter release his Beatport-chart-topping debut album "I Want More" on DATSIK's Firepower label--including a collaboration with the star himself. With his tunes being rinsed by the likes of Flux Pavilion, Rusko, DATSIK and Borgore (to name only a few) the future is looking very bright for this young blood. Catch Getter inciting riots at a small club, a massive festival or a broken down warehouse in a city near you!

Through the efforts of hard work and a supportive local scene, they quickly grew to a recognizable status in their region for their intricate mixing abilities and original styles of composition. Their original tracks have heavy theoretical and melodic tendencies and continue to develop into new and innovative ideas with every slammin' mix. Originals also feature The Vōkalist living up to his name with power and emotion your ears have yet to experience. When on stage, At0m1x and The Vōkalist bring unmatched energy and enthusiasm to every audience!

**Double Penetration** (Undertow & Brian R) Blindfire Ent // Rehydrate Pool Party // Fractured // WHES soundcloud.com/reidbt5/brian-r-promo-2012 soundcloud.com/undertow-1 soundcloud.com/blindfiremusic/double-penetration-live-wet
Double Penetration are a combo formed by Blindfire co- founder Brandan "Undertow" Spraul and Brian R.- joining forces to bring you a musical experience nothing short of the wonderment and excitement their name suggests.
Attacking drumlines, deep basses, and aural tones are the order of the day - served up and mixed in a way that will leave you wanting more, and there is no doubt you will. The two members of Double Penetration have been mixing and performing in the midwest for years- and only after a few late nights and early mornings experimenting did they realize that the two styles they possessed individually could mesh and form a whole new sound - a new experience.

There is something special about a Jen Z vs Dienda tag set. Is it watching them have just as much fun on the decks as the crowd is on the dance floor? Is it the Booty Bouncing rhythms that force everyone with ear shot to shake their money makers? Or is it the flawless mixing and scratching? It's all three. You don't wanna hear about how awesome it was on social media, you wanna be there sweatin along with the King and Queen of Xero Tribe. (Twerking is not only allowed but encouraged)
