9pm: Zachary Hollback | 
| For eight years, Zachary Hollback has been playing solo rhythm-heavy electronic music under the name Push Button Action Man (utilizing a tabletop full of hardware) and experimenting with acid house as Chief Acid Officer (with minimal assistance from a laptop). Formerly of Atlanta bands I Almost Saw God in the Metro, Brodie Stove and Tenth to the Moon, as well as several other local bands in the early '90s, Zachary left Atlanta in 1996 for Columbus, OH and then Chicago, where he played in several more bands. He amassed a small collection of analog and digital electronic gear and effects, and in 2001 he recored his debut CD Turn On, Tune In, Line Out in his Chicago living room. He relocated to Atlanta later that same year and began playing live shows as PBAM, interacting with tables of synths, drum machines, guitar pedals, FX units and theremins. His live shows as Chief Acid Officer find him flying between hardware and ReBirth (via MIDI controller) for a taste of the classic acid house sound that influenced him in the '80s. In addition to performing with the likes of Captured! by Robots, Novamen, Sendex, $tinkworx, DJ Overdose and Manhunter, Zachary has remixed several Atlanta bands including I Almost Saw God in the Metro, Untied States, The Secret Life and Blue Screen Love Scene. Zachary plays out occasionally, records rarely, annoys frequently and makes people dance once in a while. http://www.myspace.com/pushbuttonactionman http://www.myspace.com/chiefacidofficer |
10pm: JHelix & Less'Noise | 
| What do you get when you take a Producer/Singer and a DJ/Producer, each with over ten years of experience and put them into a few rooms full of instruments and software? You get JHelix & Less'Noise. Formed in late 2007, the duo has already managed to create a handful of world class electronica tracks, sure to grab the attention of club-goers internationally. The group kicked off 2008 with an exclusive live streaming performance on NYC's own Downshiftradio. Combining the unescapable rhythms of modern Progressive and Breaks with the dark soul of industrial and the complex textures of trance and minimal, JHelix & Less'Noise vow to change the face of the live electronic scene. Deturmined to transmit the emotion lacking in todays electronic music, this project chooses to walk the less beaten path, and leave the timid mainstream behind. Who are these new faces you ask?
