Reboot
14 June, 2008 Filed in: Trilo
In the cover image, a dust devil on the surface of Mars can be seen in the distance. While a high-speed whirlwind of dust and sand is normally considered to be dangerous and NASA mission controllers thought it would be the end of the rover. Instead of destruction, the dust devil served to reboot the rover by blowing weeks of accumulated dust off of the rover’s solar panels.Recorded in May before starting on the new website, Trilo marks the reboot of Electric Theatre with this energetic mix. It comes on like a sonic dust devil and bounces and swirls around relentlessly for more than an hour.

Dirty Bits
12 October, 2007 Filed in: Friction
The latest from Friction showcases his unique style, blending some of the best in tech house, breakbeats, and dirty bits.
Born in Stockholm, Sweden while his parents were on tour, Friction was immediately submersed into the world of music. On stage in front of an audience of 10,000 by age four, playing guitar by the age of twelve, and opening for bands like Cake and the Deftones by nineteen, music has always been his obsession. Inspired by the music and performance of Bassnectar, Friction took to the decks as new instruments and soon found himself dropping beats and playing venues from small clubs and street fairs to giant festivals. He's played alongside a wide range of artists, including Rennie Pilgrim, Lawgiverz, Bass Kittens, Eskmo, Bil Bless (aka SOTEG/The Disciple Grin), Autobots, Oscure, FreQ Nasty, and Bassnectar among many other amazing talents. With the help of Y no. 5 (which he co-founded) and others in the community, Friction brought the post-apocalyptic Purgatory Cruiser to festivals such as San Francisco Love Parade/Love Fest and the Burning Man arts festival in the Nevada desert.This is a standard MP3 mix set.
