CHRISTIAN BRUNA (Camouflage) 10:00pm-1:00am

http://www.myspace.com/christianbruna

A true native New Yorker, Christian was born, raised, and educated in NYC. In the Fall of 1991 he got his start in the Electronic Dance Music scene at the early age of 16 attending Future Shock Friday's at Limelight, and shortly there after N.A.S.A. at the legendary Club Shelter. As one of the first street promoters of the infamous N.A.S.A. party's he helped kick start the beginning of a new era in dance music. With the earnings he made from promoting, Christian invested in building a record collection ranging from House, Techno, and Trance, as well as Breakbeat, Hardcore, and Jungle - representing the gamut of music of the rave scene at that time. He then began feverishly learning how to DJ and getting his first gigs behind the ‘ones and twos.’

Meanwhile in those formative years he was also a champion skateboarder winning local contests and skating with some of today's top pros. Additionally, "CBee" (Christian's alias/tag) was also a recognized graffiti writer/artist regarded by many as one of the most original to come out of Queens within that era. In 1994 CB earned 15 minutes of fame when he became part of the original cast in the cult classic film KIDS (look for him in the Nitrous scene). Shortly thereafter, Christian looking to get more involved in the music industry began working at the notorious Satellite Records for many years, as well as Temple records downstairs from the infamous Liquid Sky.

In the summer of 1995 Christian became a regular guest dj at local raves, outlaw parties and premiere EDM club nights throughout NYC and the Tri-State area. Soon he was accepted into the ranks of NYC's elite and most sought after Drum & Bass Rave DJs. Performing at parties both locally and out-of-state at the tender age of 19, he accomplished what many still dream of today. Since then he has performed at countless events from coast to coast and played for nearly every major promoter and club in NYC. His 15 year DJ career has taken him to venues throughout the United States, and internationally to Buenos Aires, London, Mendoza, Montreal, and many more. He has also DJ'ed in some of NYC's most legendary clubs such as: Club Shelter, Guernica, Limelight, Octagon, Palladium, Roxy, Save The Robots, Tunnel, and Twilo amongst others.

In 1997 at 21 years of age Christian created perhaps what he is mostly known for today; NYC's longest running 21+ weekly Drum & Bass party called Camouflage, which will soon be celebrating it’s 13 year anniversary. Christian is also the only D&B DJ in NYC to hold a weekly residency for over twelve years which of course is in conjunction with Camouflage. As the man responsible for the inception of this weekly, he has been a key figure in the development of the NYC D&B scene since the early days. He's kept the original Camouflage vibe alive through thick-and-thin despite the difficulties involved in keeping any weekly going in NYC and especially since this party is held on a Tuesday night!

Highly respected and talented artists that have perfomed at Camouflage and Camouflage related events include: Adam F, A-Sides, Baron, Bailey, Big Bud, Chase & Status, Clipz, DJ Craze, Cyantific, DJ Dara, Dieselboy, Dillinja & Lemon D, Doc Scott, Ed Rush & Optical, Fanu, Fabio, Fierce, DJ Flight, Freaky Flow, Future Prophecies, John B, DJ Kane, Kemo MC, Loxy, LTJ Bukem, Marcus Intalex, MC Tali, Micky Finn, Nico, Perfect Combination, Pete Rann, Q-Project, R.A.W., Shimon, Shy FX, Simon "Bassline" Smith, Skynet, Sub Focus, Suv, Syncopix, Tayla, Tee Bee, Total Science, Trace, Twisted Individual, and too many others to mention!

Week after week in the Big Apple, Christian turns up the latest upfront Drum & Bass, including exclusive tunes sent to him from all over the world. He is a highly respected and talented dj who is diverse, quick, and full of surprises each time he spins. His cutting edge selection ranges all across the board covering the whole spectrum of Drum & Bass. Whether it be minimal or soulful, jumpy or techy. You can catch him every Tuesday in NYC playing accordingly to any given time-slot. Get ready as the camouflage chameleon brings an authentic blend of past, present, and future Drum & Bass to a city near you in such a way only he can do.

Last, but not least. Slightly over two years ago Christian began to produce on his own and just recently came out with his first release. "Imagine That" is out now on a Russian label called Liquid Brilliants. It managed to reach #77 in Beatport's Top 100 D&B Downloads. His tunes have been played on shows and podcasts by artists such as Mutated Forms (Estonia), Lightwood (Germany), Stranjah (Toronto), and many others.

Feel the real, and welcome to a new decade of bass.

http://www.myspace.com/djkasio

KASIO, started life as a calculator watch. During the early 00's he discovered DnB and instead, became a selector - delivering a more soulful, funkier, moon-walking style of drum & bass to the dancefloor.

Starting out fresh in the early Breaks movement, shuffling to the Freestylers, Plump Djs & the Staton Warriors, it was when Kasio heard the liquid sounds of Defunked, Hospital & Renegade Recordings that he switched religions to the 175bpm tempos.

For production inspiration Kasio draws on the Broken Beat & Deep House genres, spending endless hours listening to rare grooves and old skool funk, auditioning & slicing up sample gold into his unique style of Drum & Bass.
