We proudly present 2 Shambhala heavyweights for a really special St. Patrick's Day Bash. Fresh off the release of his "Like Boom" EP, NICK THAYER is hatching his plan to take over the world. He'll be joined on stage by UK guru DEEKLINE. So this one is not for the faint of heart!
NICK THAYER___
"Nick is one of the most versatile producers I know ... taking everything from house to drum and bass to moombahton and putting his own forward-thinking spin on it. Not genre bound, just music bound." - Skrillex
In his own words, Nick Thayer might be best described as "the musical equivalent of putting seven glowsticks in a blender". As renowned for uninhibited and unashamedly eclectic DJ sets as he is for impeccable production, Nick’s cut-loose mentality is his trademark both in the club and in the studio. “I don’t care about genres. Good music is good music,” he says. You could put this unbound attitude down to his classically trained background, his stint in grunge and funk bands or even his lifelong love of hair rock. Whatever it is, one thing’s certain: Nick Thayer was made for this.
A hugely successful AV show in conjunction with visual artist sevenmilligram is another very special trick up Nick's sleeve. This show is like no other; it's a complete assault on the senses and needs to be seen to be believed.
Following on from his 2010 album Just Let It Go - which was nominated for Best Electronic Album at the Australian Independent Music Awards - 2012 sees Nick signing to Skrillex's OWSLA label with the Like Boom EP. The result is worth the wait; showing scant regard for genres or tempos, or even accepted notions of what club music should be, it promises to rip sound systems apart.
DEEKLINE___
Deekline is that rare figure in dance music, the seminal producer who balances the cutting edge and the mainstream with effortless flair. Up there with the busiest artists in the scene, Deekline splits his time between regular worldwide DJ tours, relentless production work and overseeing the six record labels he heads up; Sludge, Hot Cakes, Jungle Cakes, Booty Breaks, Rat Records and Giant Pussy Records, all of which work tirelessly to propel street level artists into the forefront of the electronic music scene.
A bonafide musical shapeshifter, his countless releases have erupted into both the underground and mainstream worlds, gaining support from the likes of Diplo, Craze, DJ Hype, Afrojack, Stanton Warriors, Plump DJs and Krafty Kuts and representing bass music in its truest form; a melting pot of dubstep, UK funky, garage, bassline, dancehall and breakstep. Tracks like ‘I Don’t Smoke’ and ‘Bring it Back’ continue to smash dance floors years after their release and his enviable status in the often competitive American and Canadian markets further cements Deekline as one of the UK’s strongest production talents.
