— About the Artists —

* TIPPER *

Tipper started his career in the UK rave scene during the late 90's as a teenage prodigy of the new electronic sound. This modest technician is one of the creators of what is now commonly known as "bass music", and his production style is widely respected for its mastery of various forms and tempos that have inspired appreciative ears and ecstatic dance floors over the years.

Following Tipper's musical footprint demonstrates his range across different genres of electronica. Each step features his unique exploration of deep bass frequencies, intricate composition, and immaculate audio architecture. His contributions to Nuskool Breakbeat and Glitch Hop are regarded as important to the development of both genres. An acclaimed and awarded Surround Sound composer, his sound design is also very influential as a result of significant contributions to industry-leading music-making software. You may have already heard his music in the background of radio and tv ads, films, and television shows.

Humbled by his creative longevity and standing, Tipper's approach to each performance demands he present previously unheard original and unreleased material, underlining his ethos that the audience should be equally moved and entertained. His prowess with live scratching and turntablism makes him one of the rare producers who can not only replicate his sound in a live setting, but also add exciting improvisational energy. The respect he shows for his ever growing fan-base makes Tipper a must hear (and see) for music lovers of any kind. This is your opportunity to experience a true innovator and pioneer of electronic music.

* QUIXOTIC *

Art that enchants, invigorates, and awakens the imagination has always been born of the rule breakers, and no one is breaking the rules more joyously, more fervently than Kansas City’s Quixotic. A melting pot of dance, aerial acrobatics, projection mapping, high fashion, and original live music, Quixotic is a cornucopia of mystical majesty that enraptures audiences who have never even dreamed a night at the theater could be this much fun. Sleek dancers pushing the boundaries of athletic artistry soar across neon skies that encompass and envelop traditional and non-traditional venues, bathing structures and even painting new nature on old in a vivid fantasy world. Evocative tribal electronica sets the stage for the visual panoply of color and agility in flight. Even the aural accompaniment blurs the lines between stylistic worlds, blending organic instrumentations of lush strings and primal drums with digital symphonies of programmed beats and bellowing subsonic frequencies.

The stunning and surreal environments that set the scene for this experimental movement troupe has aligned its performers with the most progressive acts in the burgeoning electronic music scene (Dave Tipper and Shpongle, among others), but its undeniable grace, transcendent athleticism, and dogmatic dedication to haute couture also allows Quixotic to flawlessly complement the Kansas City Symphony.

The raw power, immersive experience, and sheer mesmerizing artistry of Quixotic Fusion cannot be conveyed through words, nor can audio or video alone capture the magic of an intense, firsthand glimpse of the collective in action. To truly get a sense of what it is to leave the earthly realm and enter a digital landscape of breathtaking wonder, where the bounds of genre—and gravity—have no meaning; you have to be there to believe.

* RUSS LIQUID *

Russ Liquid is the future-vintage groove-blasting maestro who has stirred the souls and minds of the electronic music world. Renowned for his ingenious compositional approach, this cosmic virtuoso and imprints a prophetic musical experience on his audiences. He detonates explosive beatscapes, seamlessly adding flourishes of instrumental color and emotion; all while drawing from an endlessly diverse sonic palette.

* GLADKILL *

Refusing the confinement of any single genre, Gladkill captivates audiences with sounds that span a diverse musical landscape. Stacked with a vast catalog of songs that range from dance-floor-dominating sexy kinetic club beats, to deep and captivating downtempo/melodic material that works just as comfortably on the home stereo. Gladkill sits deftly between the sheets of ethereal melodies and silky basslines while embracing a heavy emphasis on songwriting and structure. In an era where disposable dance music is big business, Gladkill rises above the fray and aims to make music that will stand the test of time.

* SUGARPILL *

Combining an array of meticulously tweaked polytemponic beats, explosive basslines, and soaring melodies, Sugarpill fluidly melds sounds into a crunked-out speaker shaking musical escapade. The Sugarpill sound and live experience defies the boundaries of genre-centric electronic music and ventures into a multidimensional musical realm that unites fans across a vast spectrum. With sounds that churn audiences in visceral dance while simultaneously captivating the imagination through soulful harmony, Sugarpill continues to break ground at the forefront of the West-Coast future sound.

* CHRISB. *

Over the past few years, the original sounds of Los Angeles based producer ChrisB. have taken the underground electronic music scene by storm. Drawn to music at an early age, Chris always had an instrument in his hands while embracing everything from hip-hop and funk, to jazz and classic rock. His passion for songwriting lead him to playing guitar in bands throughout his formative years, but it wasn’t until being exposed to the cutting-edge sounds of electronic music that he realized his true creative calling.

* GOLDRUSH *

GoldRush is on a humble quest to create and deliver music that inspires Romanticism. Fusing melodic elements of the classical, acoustic, ethereal, synthetic and downright dirty, GoldRush crafts soundscapes from the heart, with the intention to move your body, touch your soul, and activate your mind with a musical dance experience open to the alchemy of the present moment. GoldRush is sweating through molten sound and clarifying reflective intention with hope to bring you what you want: the Gold.

* JOBOT *

jOBOT is an original producer of pulsating midtempo grooves and scandalously sexy downbeat melodies. An electronic musician of a whole new type, he fuses an immense breadth and depth of listening and training with funk-fueled bass playing, smooth vocals, and the ineffable balls-out, experimental, and creative spirit that “jOBOT” encompasses.

* JUPIT3R *

Abducted and raised in a planetary bass station, Jupit3r returned to our world equipped with a galactic sensibility, ready to convey his cosmic anthem to the fortunate inhabitants of Earth. Finding his niche in the Los Angeles underground music scene, Jupit3r went on to create his own techy, geometric robosound he refers to as “Urban Space Gangsta Bass”.

* MORILLO *

Zach Morillo is a walking, living, breathing beat machine. Since age 7 when he first sat down at a set of drums and stepped into the world of making music, he has been fiercely dedicated to perfecting his passion for captivating audiences with infectiously deep, funky beats. With his debut solo project, Morillo, Zach has begun to deeply immerse himself into sculpting and perfecting his own style of music, which he describes as a dance-floor ready, world-music influenced blend of hip hop, dub, and bass. Through his performances, Morillo strives to create a globe-spanning, rhythm-and-bass fueled tribal dance party that will leave his audiences in a sweaty euphoria.

* JONATHAN SINGER *

When I realized my heart was no longer in static media I began experimenting with the fascinating fluidity of light—how it related to music, how they flowed together into a visual language my computer could speak and then I could project. I realized the correlation between an open heart to the divine and the alchemical combination of light and color. There are no limitations with an imagination.

* JIGGLESWORTH *

Blasting the light fantastic for all to enjoy.
