We are throwing it down at The Sullivan
Street Shakedown for one of the finest brothers we know. Matt Fitzgerald
and his brilliant photography have been helping the scene (and us) grow
strong for many years and in honor of his day of birth, we're putting
together an assortment of instrumentalists/deejays that will assemble to
bring you hours of audio diamonds. These players are from some of the
biggest, baddest stages around, and they're combining on this night to
pull out every stop, every trick in their book - every riff, scratch,
slide, snap, boom, bam they've ever perfected will be projected at
pleasing your soul, moving your body, and bringing this fine human into
his next year of life. Matt and his keen eyes have helped breathe life
into and move the careers of every performer you'll see on this night,
and with your presence (the best birthday present there is), together,
we can turn the focus back on Matt and give him the soiree he so
rightfully deserves. From live drum and bass, brass horns, records and
cds, to v-drums and kaossed vox, there will be new genres of music
formed on this night, and all of it will move you so, come ready to be
moved...and dance.

Special photo coverage of this night will be
provided by the talented, Daniela Volpi.

DrumLab:
The duo of
Steve (drums) and Ed (techno wizardry) of the famous psychedelic / live
electronic band Psylab. DrumLab breaks it down into the strictly twisted
dub elements of Psylab's mastery and paves new ground with what can be
done with a set of e-drums and lots of SUBS.

People In Charge:
Added
to the sonic mix is the collaboration of rotating People In Charge
musical guests - the opportunity for producers to rock their instruments
live on stage rather than behind the recording console. On this night,
Mikey Beatz (drums), eBonheur (bass), and Zoe Wilder (vocals) team with
DrumLab to turn the party on its head.

DJ Viz:
Or Vizzie, the
techno technician of Psylab fame, rocks the 1's and 2's, strictly
vinyl, for an exploration and elaboration of the world's finest Dub-Step
and Drum & Bass. Viz is a sub-bass gourmand, so be ready to feel it
in your gut.

Will Swank:
Swank brings with him years of
touring experience with The Motet and a background in subterranean Jazz
that stands the test with history's most legendary saxophone players.
Will rocks a growling tenor and phrases lines like he's painting the
future in ancient poetry.

Nutritious:
Is a DJ... and he rocks
the shit out of parties.

eBonheur:
is a ninja.

Zoe
Wilder:
ZW has shared many a stage but, most infamous for her
collaborations with Psylab and the New Deal. Possibly most remembered
for her shadow dancing performance at main-stage Camp Bisco 6, Wilder's
scheming something xxx-tra provocative for Five Eight Forty so, abre los
ojos.

VJ Mamiko Kushida:
Mami should need no introduction
but, new to the States after rockin Japan's biggest events for years,
Mamiko's the most bad-ass VJ here. She's one part kunoichi, one part
Foxy Brown - she'll super-fly slice-you and you'll thank her for it.
