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

LEE BURRIDGE
NEW YEAR’S EVE MASQUERADE
@ Santos Party House

The countdown has begun.  Made Event invites you to say goodbye to a fantastic decade and hello to the new – with the king of eclectic techno and perennial New York favorite, Lee Burridge at Santos Party House this New Year’s Eve on Thursday, December 31st, 2009.  The noughties were a dance music party that never ended and for this momentous masquerade,  Lee will soundtrack our collective farewell to the departing decade. Come in your finest masks or bearded disguises and get ready to ring in the new year with a special midnight toast in the city that never sleeps.

Lee Burridge has a reputation synonymous with musical creativity and amazing parties.  With a career that spans two decades, his sound still cannot truly be defined.  Never the less, it is a sound that has been showcased in almost every major club and festival from Israel to America and Asia to South Africa.    His wonky, bouncy and sublime house and techno sets have provided NYC with some of its most exciting nights in recent memory.  Over the years a special bond has forged between Lee and the Big Apple, so it only seems appropriate that we usher in the New Year by allowing him to take control and mastermind the dancefloor of downtown boite Santos Party House as only he can.  If you witnessed his sets at the annual San Francisco Love parade, Burning Man, Save the Cannibals or his infamous WMC soiree’s The Burridge Barrage, you know to expect the unexpected when he digs through the crates.  But one thing is certain, his blend of funky house, tech house and pulsating techno never fails to move the body and stimulate the mind.  Once the don of the Hong Kong club scene and  Tyrant partner with Craig Richards, Burridge has undoubtedly etched his name amongst dance music’s most elite while maintaining a position as  a crowd favorite the world over.

SAVE THE CANNIBALS
NYC Saturday Techno Weekly Beginning January 24, 2009

As we herald in a new year, Made Event prepares to Save The Cannibals. Conceived as a weekly series, global techno talents will converge in the heart of the concrete jungle called New York City. The parties will be infused with some long-displaced, cherished principles of the dancefloor: grade A talent, superior sound, exceptional music and an egalitarian, no-nonsense take to getting down to the business of dancing.

At the onset, Save The Cannibals will be helmed by six residents appearing in quarterly residencies throughout the year: ADULTNAPPER, CASSY, MARTIN LANDSKY, MATTHEW DEAR, SETH TROXLER and STEVE BUG, with additional special guests each week. These techno heavyweights lay the groundwork for the movement and whet the palate for more to come.

Brooklyn’s own Techno philosopher Adultnapper and his Ransom Note label investigates hauntingly introspective, stripped down electronic music and brings body & mind enlightenment to the dancefloor. Berlin’s high priestess Cassy explores the deepest territories of house and techno in her 100% vinyl-only sets. Her club residency at Panorama Bar has become a benchmark for techno tourists and natives alike and puts her in a class of her own.  Intim Recordings top chef Martin Landsky is a globetrotting ambassador of the sound that bridges techno to funk, house to minimal, and a bit of everything in between.  He has long been one of the key figures in the circle of producers at Poker Flat Recordings with a penchant for deep music that includes twisty and funky elements. From Detroit’s techno scene, Ghostly’s Matthew Dear has evolved into a genre defying electronic music sensation. With his many production guises – Audion, Jabberjaw, and False, he continually pushes the envelope in the world of techno and finds favor with even the most avid techno purists with his own brand of techno psychedelia. One of the brightest up-and-comers in the scene, Spectral Sound’s Seth Troxler move from Detroit to Berlin exemplifies the mergence of his local roots with the European minimal techno and house aesthetic. With his debut “Love Never Sleeps” EP out now on Crosstown Rebels, this young prodigy is one to watch. Germany’s techno pioneer and minimal dance connoisseur, Steve Bug is one of the scene’s unsung heroes. He stands at the helm of three influential labels – Dessous, Poker Flat and Audiomatique Recording, that serve as a platform to champion high caliber vinyl releases. Bug launches the Save the Cannibals series with a celebration to mark the 10 year anniversary of Poker Flat Recordings.

Over the years, Made Event has brought quality and professionalism to the sometimes chaotic and uncharted territory of electronic dance music. Now, with new management at Rebel NYC and a newly installed and custom engineered Integral Sound System, they’re taking over the upstairs to bring you excellence in techno music with unparalleled programming, curated with the world’s most sought after Artists for this brand new weekly party – SAVE THE CANNIBALS.

Made Event presents
Lee Burridge

Made Event presents one of the most consistent and globally acclaimed DJs, Lee Burridge, performing at Cielo on Independence Day – Friday, July 4th, 2008.

In a congested arena of DJ’s vying for recognition and attention, Lee Burridge is an anomaly. In a career that spans over two decades, Lee is the definition of an iron man. Constantly on the move, he has played internationally including landmark festivals such as Love Parade, Exit, Creamfields, Dance Valley, Coachella and others. He is known for his wonky, bouncy, sublime house and techno sets and his Cielo performance is not to be missed.

In 2005 Burridge started what is known as project ‘365′ which provided him with bi-monthly residencies in seven different cities around the world (New York, Ibiza, Buenos Aires, Sydney, Denver & Hong Kong). The purpose; for him to build a solid relationship with his audiences and to expand the impact an international DJ can have in one region. Now, three years after, Lee is teaming up with local producers in each of those cities to work in the studio and release what are surely destined to be dancefloor hits.

Most recently, his contribution to the dance music compilation “Balance Series” (Balance 012) has gained much praise and continues to win over new fans. The mix is Burridge’s first solo compilation since 2003’s Global Underground ‘24:7′, and the three discs present a tidy snapshot of the current state of house and techno. It ranges from deep house to intricate minimal to more pumping techno, culminating in a deep, beautiful, dark, trippy and wobbly soundtrack. Featuring a wide array of cutting edge artists including Martin Buttrich, Dennis Ferrer, Alexi Delano, Gabriel Ananda and more.

Lee Burridge presents ‘Balance 012′ is out now on EQ Recordings.
Balance Issue 12 is now available on Beatport.
