* Powered By Integral Sound

Sunday School For Degenerates will once again descend upon Miami to mark the end of conference week in grand fashion.  Now in its fifth installment, the 24 hour party extravaganza has become a virtual who’s who of industry figures, the world’s most elite underground techno artists, and slews of ‘in the know’ clubbers.  This year, Made Event will be bringing the 24 hour lesson in afterhours debauchery back to downtown Miami’s massive Ice Palace.  On Saturday night, the venue will open its huge indoor area for dancing, as well as outdoor terrace lounge for chilling.   The outdoor garden, complete with shade, seating, and DJ sets along with palm trees, verdant lawns, and bright yellow school buses, will be open for business all day on Sunday. As expected, the space will feature a unique layout, full bar and food for the entire 24 hours, and a fully customized sound system from Integral Sound.

The 2010 edition of Sunday School For Degenerates kicks off on the evening of Saturday, March 27th as Victor Calderone takes to the decks for a very special performance inside Ice Palace’s massive indoor area.  A veritable virtuoso of the scene, Pacha NYC resident DJ, Calderone has inspired, enthralled and entertained music fans the world over for 20+ years.  Lately, he has morphed his traditional tribal based sound into the realms of energizing techno, and doing so with amazing results.  This style has been on full display recently, including an inspired set at the Sunday School tent at the inaugural Electric Zoo festival in NYC.  Playing alongside Calderone will be Drumcode label head Adam Beyer.  Beyer has been a globetrotting ambassador of all things techno and the figurehead of the Swedish techno scene for well over a decade.

On Sunday morning and all day long, SSFD welcomes their eclectic lineup of techno heavyweights, beginning with Sunday School staple Adultnapper.  Every time he steps to the decks, he brings his haunting brand of micro rhythmic techno, enthralling and hypnotizing even the most jaded of audiences.   One of the most sophisticated and inspiring names in  techno, Frenchman Agoria brings his distinct sound to Miami for his Miami debut!  His Balance 016: Agoria is a huge 2CD mix which continues the compilation’s trend of releasing groundbreaking mixes from some of the world’s most forward thinking artists.  Dig Deeper founder and worldwide DJ favorite Danny Howells makes his first SSFD appearance this year.  Known for extended sets that push the limits of progressive, house, and techno, Danny Howells surely needs no further introduction.  Get Physical boss DJ T is veteran of the club scene for 20+ years and now leads one of the industry’s most respected labels.  He has just come off a world tour for his artist album The Inner Jukebox and his latest mix, Fabric 51: DJ T is out soon.  Parisian trio dOP have been relentlessly touring the world for the last three years and these Supplemental Facts favorites are bringing their unique and innovative live set.   One of the true underground hero’s of techno, Function is bringing his ferocious live set exclusively to Sunday School. Last year she was a newcomer, but with arguably one of the event’s favorite sets, Swedish Ida Engberg returns for round 2.   The king of eclectic techno and Tyrant partner Lee Burridge brings his wonky, bouncy, and sublime techno. Freude Am Tanzen and Vakant mainstay Mathias Kaden has built a unique sound based around funky and freaky rhythms drawn from global influences.  His latest album Studio 10 attests to Mathias’ ability to focus on quality over quantity, centering diverse live performances around simple beats.  A Circo Loco favorite, Moon Harbour’s Matthias Tanzmann is rooted in deep grooves with a sound that ranges from European influenced deep house on through to minimal, and bordering on advanced techno.  Another favorite, Mr.C has been an underground hero for over two decades.  His collaboration with Adultnapper, Sycophant Slags has just released their “Keep Off” EP and video on Poker Flat Recordings. Minus artist and spanish techno veteran Paco Osuna’s rich textures, analogue EFX, loose drum crescendos, and memorable vocal samples will highlight his set from this Plus 8 favorite.  Polish techno star Pawel plays exclusively for Sunday School, with a decade’s worth of single’s, a self titled artist album and the much respected label Orphanear to his credit. Adding something a little different to the stacked lineup of established techno heavyweights will be Frenchman Sébastien Léger adding his own signature sound to the mix.  Having recently been named #8 in Resident Advisor’s Best DJs of 2009 Poll, Seth Troxler has rapidly gained notoriety throughout the scene. From Detroit to Berlin and everywhere in between, Seth has made a name for himself playing some of the most unique sets in the business, while noticeably enjoying every minute he steps behind the decks. His next move for world domination is an unsurprisingly excellent compilation for BPitch’s Boogybytes Vol. 5. Boston upstarts Soul Clap have busted onto the scene in a big way.  With releases on Wolf + Lamb and Airdrop to their credit, they are able to throw down sets comprised of everything from deep house and techno mixed with R&B and soul elements.  Now returning for the 5th year, Dessous, Poker Flat, and Audiomatique founder Steve Bug has been one of the scene’s unsung pioneers and a Made Event favorite for some time. Tom Middleton brings his jedi mind tricks and canny ability to play almost any kind of music imaginable, while surprising all who think otherwise. Rounding out this massive lineup is Dessous favorite Vincenzo.  Drawing influence from the acid house movement of the late 80’s and bridging the gap between deep house and minimal, Vincenzo continues to reinvent electronic music, as well as collaborate with some of the scene’s finest.

“Made Event’s annual Sunday School for Degenerates party…has become mandatory for all of the WMC’s technoheads. It’s one of the conference’s best bashes, in vibe and in music.” –Time Out New York
“WMC’s marquis techno party, Sunday School for Degenerates. A lesson in the afterhours.” – Residentadvisor.net
“As for the crowd, its Miami’s most clued-up and cosmopolitan getting debauched and disheveled for one last time.” – DJ Mag
“This party was for me the way all after-parties should be, and showed me what techno could be about and what my music can do.” – Guy Gerber

Time to Get Ill presents
Poker Flat Showcase
Mr. C & Adultnapper
AKA Sycophant Slags
[Keep Off EP & Video Release Party]
Martin Landsky
Taimur + Fahad
Crazy Larry

Time to Get Ill & Crazy Larry present the Poker Flat Recordings Showcase with Mr. C, Adultnapper, Martin Landsky, Blk|Market Membership’s Taimur + Fahad and Crazy Larry on Saturday, February 20th, 2010.

There is no denying that Mr. C is a legend of dance music.  Over the span of his 20+ years in the scene he has tried his hand at virtually every aspect of it.  Mr.C’s musical career began as an MC in the U.K.  As the vicious front man for the hip hop outfit The Shamen, he was responsible for a string of mainstream and club hits during the early 90’s.  After that came his successful solo career as a DJ/Producer, as well as club owner.  Along with partner Layo Paskin, their clubs The End and AKA Bar provided Londoners with memorable nights for well over a decade.   During their tenure, the venues became two of the city’s most legendary dance establishments.  His many labels include Plink Plonk, The End Recordings, and Superfreq Recordings, which also is the name of his world famous club night.  Mr. C has released countless productions under a variety of aliases for some of the world’s most prestigious techno and house labels including Sexonwax and Hallucination Ltd.

His latest collaborative effort is with New York’s own Adultnapper under the Sycophant Slags moniker.  Their newly released EP on Poker Flat, “Keep Off” is a trippy slice of underground house.  A tight, clean, and superbly produced track, “Keep Off” also marks Mr. C’s return to vocal duties.  With the catchy “sky’s the limit” refrain, the track has immediately lifted itself to late night anthem status.  The EP also features unique interpretations from renowned acts Reboot and The Wighnomy Brothers.  Mr. C has also released his first solo EP in nearly 5 years with ‘Lunar EP’ on Wagon Repair.  Lunar EP showcases his diversity with three distinct variations on one common theme.  The sunrise perfect “Full Moon”, deep after hours style “Waxing, and peak time “Dark Moon” come together to form a complete representation of the sounds that make up a Mr.C set.

Mr. C is joined by several of house and techno’s most esteemed artists to showcase Poker Flat Recordings.  His Sycophant Slags partner and Brooklyn’s own master of deep, brooding techno Adultnapper will also take to the decks.  Making his long awaited return to New York City will be Martin Landsky for a special 5 hour extended set.  Martin’s ability to mix deep music with funky elements and sexy vocals make him a worldwide favorite.  His sets are known to bridge the gap between techno, funk, minimal, and house.  Blk|Market Membership’s own Taimur + Fahad are heroes of the New York underground scene. Not only known for throwing some of the city’s finest underground techno events, they are also recognized as two of its best DJ’s with a keen ear for upcoming global talent.  With extended opening duties the duo will showcase the techno sounds which so many around the country have come to love.  Rounding out the bill will be Time To Get Ill’s own Crazy Larry.  Larry has brought together this impressive roster of artists dear to his heart for what is sure to be a very special night for all.

Sycophant Slags ‘Keep Off’ EP is out now on Poker Flat Recordings.
Mr. C ‘Lunar’ EP is out now on Wagon Repair.

An inspired partnership indeed occured  between NYC‘s Adultnapper and London‘s  legendary Mr.C. as a love for all things musical and a passion for kissing the proverbial ass of the rich and famous drew them together, across an ocean of doubt, to form The Sycophant Slags. As a result, we are blessed with their latest gift to the world, “Keep Off” with Mr. C’s long-awaited return to vocals.  The release comes complete with 2 unforgettable remixes from Reboot and The Wighnomy Brothers and a stunningly twisted  video by New York director Ariel Danziger.

The Ice Palace is located close to the nightclub district, so you can make the rounds.

NYC’s techno femme fatale DJ Connie leads off the night, followed by Ryan Crosson’s exclusive live set and Poker Flat artist Argy, for his long-awaited U.S. debut after last year’s visa snafu. Then, Turkey’s first real techno export Onur Özer will play his exclusive Miami set for another U.S. debut!

On the eve of his stunning CD kaleidoscope Balance 014, Joris Voorn joins the fray with his exclusive Miami performance.
