Westbay’s boss-man, Atlantic Connection played Subphonix last December and loved Hawaii so much he’s here in Honolulu for the summer kickin it with the Pacific Jungle crew.

“I wanted to create an afternoon of brasil, soul, nu disco; good vibes, throwbacks, eclectic people, dope sunglasses & cool t-shirts. Over the past year I’ve had the pleasure of working closely with Norman Mayers of Nu Soul Magazine LA (one of the most talented event coordinators in southern California) doing my LA event Soul Good and it’s schooled me on how to develop an event like this from the ground up. I got to Hawaii in early May and thought, what am I gonna do this summer? Being from LA I was spoiled with options, which spur ideas in places that aren’t so flooded with scenes, so I said hey, let’s create a day time outdoor party but bring totally new qualities and details to the event unique to local promotions. So I called my good friend DJ Saya at Pacific Jungle to get her input and advice on doing something like that here. We teamed up, scouted locations citywide and fell in love with thirtyninehotel – felt it was the perfect venue for this style of event…well here we are, ready to rock. I can’t wait.”

AC and Saya will be your hosts for the summer with rotating residents including 45 Revolver, Ramyt, T.K.O. and Jamz. Special guests will be rolling through from all over to lay down some extra special sets, but you gotta pay attention ’cause we’re not announcing them til the last minute.

JAMZ
Over the last year, JAMZ has pushed the sub-frequency in Chinatown to another level with his bass heavy Dubstep sets. A major proponent behind the Honolulu Dubstep scene, if he’s not tearing up the back patio at Broken Liquid or in the bass den of Subphonix, he’s spending time designing flyers, digging for tunes, or crafting beats in the studio. Catch him this Friday as he opens with an exclusive Ragga-Dub set and finishes the night off with some str8 heat for all you Hardstep heads. You don’t wanna miss it!

T.K.O.
If you didnt know, The Tele.Kinetic.One. has been making major moves on the forefront of the EDM scene in Honolulu. Whether it’s his radio show on KTUH, his record store on Ebay, or his monthly gigs in Chinatown, T.K.O. is consistently pushing the emerging genres of Dubstep, Grime, and GlitchHop to the hungry underground community. His sets are most notable for their intense energy and defined selection, pulling out the freshest unreleased tracks that he’s accumulated through endless hours of networking. This Friday guarantees to be a pleasure for anyone that enjoys quality beats with bass.

Thread
Artisan of the needles, Thread has been on the cutting edge of the Dubstep scene in Honolulu since its conception. Being true to the Vinyl DJ culture, there has been no record in the worldwide Dubstep movement that has missed this man’s ear. And Threads commitment to Dubstep doesn’t stop there, as he spends the majority of his time in the lab producing unforeseen dopeness yet to come. If you’re searching for the deepest bass you can find on the islands, Thread promises to give you that gut-punching whomp to keep your heads nodding all night. Expect nothing less than the crunkest beats and the fattest bass-lines from this man on Friday.

Speakers Corner is located at:
Indigo
1121 Nuuanu Ave
Honolulu, Hawaii 96817

Three local favorites are on deck this month to rip up Subphonix like only they can do.

THD
Broken Liquid, Pacific Jungle
THD (The Hedgehog’s Dilemma) has been establishing himself as a staple in the Hawaii Drum & Bass scene over the past several years, sharing the stage next to heavyweights like Dara, Ed Rush, and Optical, as well as winning over the local heads with his eclectic sound, ranging from Liquid Funk to Tech Step. This talented DJ is as prolific as they come as he constantly digging for the best tracks out there (and we mean constantly!) to help you get your bass on.

T.K.O.
KTUH, Organized Grime, Pacific Jungle
When TKO (aka Tele.Kinetic.One) isn’t in the studio hosting his Sunday Night show Inner Dimensions on KTUH Radio, he can be found out in Honolulu gigging the night or cruising with friends at an event. His sound and influences come from many genres, lending to his keen ability to keep things fresh on the decks. As both a devout leader and follower of the Hawaii drum and bass and dubstep movement, he’s in tune with the sounds that make Hawaii move.

Saya
Subphonix, Broken Liquid, Pacific Jungle
Pacific Jungle’s own DJ Saya takes on Subphonix after loads of recent work in the lab tweaking out tracks and fine tuning her recent mix CD release. Look for her and a free CD at Subphonix this Friday!

The Lineup…


T.K.O. – GLITCH - KTUH, Organized Grime, Pacific Jungle – T.K.O. is one of Honolulu’s strongest proponents of emerging genres of EDM, such as dubstep, grime, and glitch. He’s put down a few absolutely mad glitch sets at Broken Liquid and expect even more madness from the man at Stimulus!

Sam Ondarox – FIDGET – Bassick, Pacific Jungle – So you say you like your Drum & Bass and Dubstep, well, you’ve never heard “house music” like this. When Sam Ondarox gets on the decks at Stimulus, get your bassfaces on cause you’re gonna give ‘em a workout. Nasty-noises will abound!

Victor J – UK Garage – Broken Liquid, Pacific Jungle – Seeming at times to have musical A.D.D., this man will play anything from dubstep to breaks to trance to hip hop, but he’s quite possibly one of the only DJs in Honolulu brave enough to lay down a real UK Garage set. You’ll hear this stuff nowhere else on this island!

Saya – Drum & Bass – Broken Liquid, Subphonix, Pacific Jungle – This is a Pacific Jungle event after all, so there must be some Drum & Bass somewhere, right? Saya will come with a crazy track selection, playing everything from the liquidiest liquid to the techiest techstep. She’s been in the lab mixing up some free CDs too, so don’t forget to grab one!

Thread – DUBSTEP – Organized Grime, Pacific Jungle – One of Pacific Jungle’s artists from way back, we’ve seen Thread migrate from Ragga Jungle to Dubstep becoming one of the founders of Honolulu’s Dubstep movement. We hear he’s been hoarding the new tunes, just waiting to unleash the bass for Stimulus!

MC Enemy – THE HYPE, THE LYRICS – Audiolab, Subphonix, Pacific Jungle – One of Honolulu’s greatest MCs for any genre, this man loves his Drum & Bass and Dubstep. Come and hear him flow, you’ll be amazed!
