As the event moves into its fourth year it has become a standard-bearer for the industry. This year, AM Only founder Paul Morris asserts the strength of the triumvirate partnership and says, “we are particularly proud to be working with two of the top promoters in North America: Made Event and Pacha NYC on this exceptional event.”

Located in the heart of Miami’s expanding arts and entertainment district – the breathtaking 42,000 square foot venue Karu & Y, provides the ultimate entertainment sanctuary.

MARINE PARADE

ADAM FREELAND
Special Guest Z-TRIP
ALEX METRIC
STA

Label boss and head honcho himself, Adam Freeland leads the Marine Parade with the label’s newest signing, 26 year old breakbeat wunderkind Alex Metric and blogger’s favorite Sta. Along with special guest Z-Trip, the founding father of the mash-up movement. Adam recently released his astounding new E.P “Hate”, of all original material and is slated to release his sophomore artist album entitled “How To Fake Your Own Life”, due out in June.

2008 looks to be the label’s strongest year yet: with greatly-anticipated full-lengths expected from Adam Freeland and Evil Nine and the storming debut album from Alex Metric, Marine Parade enters its second decade right where it began: on the forward edge of the most groundbreaking music, circa now.

Drumcode

Made Event presents

DRUMCODE

ADAM BEYER
JOEL MULL
PÄR GRINDVIK (Live)
KYLE GEIGER
IDA ENGBERG

Since the mid-90s, Swedish techno pioneer Adam Beyer’s Drumcode label has become synonymous with the techno sound of Sweden, with Beyer and Joel Mull forming the nexus of the Swedish Techno mafia. Joined by Pär Grindvik, newly anointed ‘Producer of 2007’ by Beyer, his live sets are inspired by memories and music from the past, combined with the future of techno. Another techno upstart is Indiana-based producer Kyle Geiger, the first American to release on Drumcode and named Beyer’s “Breakthrough DJ of 2008.” Rounding out the techno testosterone is the eclectic Ida Engberg. Together these artists have evolved from the harder, percussive stylings of the late 90’s Swedish Techno sound and continue to bridge the gap into the future of the modern Techno sound.

In 2008, Beyer is planning to take Drumcode to the next level with more shows and promotion with a string of releases and remixes on Drumcode and sub-label Truesoul from the likes of Perc, Joey Beltram, Len Faki, 2000 and One, Paco Osuna, Kyle Geiger, Hardcell, Pär Grindvik, Ortin Cam, Smith & Selway, Raudive, Patrik Skoog, Museum, Nihad Tule, JPLS, Martinez and Cirez D.

They have been storming with their new mash-up “Push Up Word Up” out on Ministry of Sound this year. The dancefloor-destroying duo Deekline & Wizard blend together live scratching with a hip hop approach to mixing for a truly one-of-a-kind performance.

GABRIEL & DRESDEN
w/ FRANCIS PREVE

Made Event presents San Francisco based chart-topping production and DJ duo GABRIEL & DRESDEN at Pacha NYC on Friday, February 29, 2008 along with Texan Francis Preve.

Gabriel & Dresden
’s Organized Nature are set to release their exclusive G&D remix for Monochrome “Pearl”. After judging the Heineken Thirst Competition, they selected the Romanian winner, Monochrome “Pearl”, and decided to go into the studio together. Next up the duo go back to the basics with Gabriel & Dresden’s “New Path” with a range of remixes from Dave Aude, Trent Cantrelle and Pete Heller among others. Following that, the label will issue the second release from Deep Flexion entitled “Monologue” with mixes from Umek and Ozgur Can.

Late last year, Josh Gabriel’s first solo single ahead of his debut artist album coming in 2008 burst onto the scene with a #12 ranking in DJ Mag’s year end Top 100. The track Josh Gabriel “Summit” has garnered high praise, with airplay on Radio 1’s Essential mix and top DJs like John Digweed describing it as “massive” and Armin Van Buuren calling it “techno evolved.” Also, techno giant Carl Cox named it one of his favorite tunes of the year, while Sander Kleinenberg said “With this stormer [Josh] has nothing less than delivered a future classic. Brilliant.”

Organized Nature is home to their critically acclaimed self-titled artist album released in 2006 with Billboard #1 Dance Club Chart hit singles “Tracking Treasure Down” and “Dangerous Power”, along with nine other singles which have all been both commercially successful and embraced by critics. Now with 17 Billboard #1 Club Chart hits, Gabriel & Dresden continue to tour the world playing the best clubs and festivals, and have earned respect and support globally of both fans and the world’s top DJs by constantly pushing electronic music to the next level. Their syndicated one hour monthly radio show “Gabriel & Dresden Organized Nature” is aired on satellite, FM, cable and Internet radio stations worldwide.

Toolroom Knights Vol. 2 compilation mixed by Gabriel & Dresden is out now.
