Dave Huismans aka 2562 and "A Made Up Sounds" returns to demolish the bassbins at Goodlife once again! A Netherlands Native now relocated to Berlin, Dave has been fusing his sound with some of techno's best right in the heart of the fatherland. 2009 & 2010 marked some of 2562' biggest releases on such labels as 3024 and Tectonic. In 2011 he's stepping it up a notch and launching his own label called When In Doubt. If you were here for 2562 the first time around you know he doesn't disappoint with his sets as they dip back and forth between the 4/4 and dubstep spectrums!
"When In Doubt's inaugural release, a two-track 10-inch, will be Huisman's first appearance as 2562 in almost a year. It will be pressed on blue vinyl, packaged in hand-printed sleeves and limited to 300 copies, with no future repress likely." - Resident Advisor
Opening pressure is brought to you by Slav & Spliffolian.
Taking influence from various corners of the electronic music spectrum, since 2007 Slav consistently delivers a fresh sound to the masses who appreciate bass heavy music. Located in the epicenter of Connecticut, he actively spreads a wide variety of the dubstep sound throughout New England. Being a member of the Dubbage and Threshold Sound crews, Slav is presented an opportunity to engage with local and already recognized talents in the dubstep scene on a weekly basis. As a resident DJ at Shish Lounge, he plays multiple nights and is the founder of Sub Sunday. Slav's assortment and selection of music will always make you ask for more.
Spliffolian AKA Selecta Folian has been spinning records for the past nine years. Always an avid music listener, musician, and fond of a vast diversity of styles, he began djing at his college radio station in Portland, OR as a conscious roots, reggae, and dub selecta. Holding down a radio show at KRRC for 6 years he fine tuned his DJ skills and in the process became exposed to new styles and flexes which eventually led him to the sounds of dubstep and future dub. Upon moving to San Francisco in 2007 he became more fully immersed in the SF dubstep scene and style, playing local dubstep nights such as Brapdem! as well as reggae nights such as Jah-Warior Shelters' Bless Up weekly at Milk and other underground venues. Departing San Francisco for Utrecht, NL in August 2008, Spliffolian quickly linked up with local dubstep crews the Randstad Rollaz and DUBieus, holding down a residency at the Rollaz' monthly Wobble Trouble and making appearances at other parties in the Utrecht/Amsterdam areas including LED at SJU, Gute Laune! (Eat This!) at ACU, and Dub City at Club Bitterzoet. Now residing in Boston, Spliffolian has continued to murk whatever scene he finds himself in playing at local dubstep nights Bassic and Dubwise with more appearances to come alongside his new local crew subDuction. Spliffolian's style is diverse, ranging across a wide spectrum of sounds and styles from roots, conscious dancehall, and dub to hip-hop, future dub, and dubstep with a particular ear towards deeper more nuanced sounds, heavy, dirty basslines, and unique melodies. Always fond of radio, he pioneered a number of SubFM shows including the now defunct Certain Mind State Radio with fellow Utrecht DJs Bojcot Selectah (OH GOSH!) and Roonigan and has just begun a new weekly SubFM show from Boston (Mondays, 2-4am GMT).
