Elements- Lineup for September

September is just around the corner, the college kids are returning to school, the beaches have emptied out yet the water is still warm…and the Phoenix Landing will surely be packed on Thursdays! Here’s the confirmed September lineup- I was wondering if producer Klute of Commercial Suicide fame was going to play out here this year, he’s played at Elements every year since I’ve lived out here, 2009 now being no exception. Oh yeah, Caustic makes his return from the left coast. He hasn’t played here since he originally moved away in 2006- another reason for celebration (bitches)!

Elements July/August 2009 flyer hits the streets!

Just going through my myspace bulletins (yes, I actually do still use myspace!!) and saw the upcoming lineup posted for the next two months at Elements. As per usual it's a busy schedule. Optical, "superstar" John B, and Concord Dawn are all well known favorites around town; Seismic hosted all three in '07-'08 and Concord Dawn holds down a once-a-year residency at Elements. Check out the Beltek pre-party, these guys have been throwing the Beltek festival at the beginning of August in northern Maine for several years now and they have been doing a lot of work around New England to promote the event in the past several weeks. Drew Stylus (Surgical) has been holding down a weekly drum and bass radio show on Kuninmindz.com since 2006.

Moving into August, we have NYC dj/producer Dave Schichman on board, who is someone who I'll be excited to check out. I've talked with him on various message boards for years now and this guy knows his liquidfunk. He puts out mixes every month, helps run the Driven AM roster, plays tons of parties in NYC, and is now releasing original tunes digitally as well. Brynmore will be showcasing dub-oriented 45's, similar to his appearance last fall. I'm actually not that familiar with Dip Vertigo but it looks like he's got some tunes coming out on Timeless so there's no doubt that he's a quality producer and I'm sure many of his forthcoming tracks will be in my flight case soon enough.
