Countermeasure

A 16 year veteran of the New England rave scene, with over 12 years behind the decks. Not so much of a dj, as just simply a music enthusiast, his only real aspiration for djing has always been to make something he enjoyed listening to and then share it with others. Playing along such acts as Digital, Terravita, Paul C, We Bang, I-Che, Hellfire Machina and the who’s who of the New England rave scene and more recently winning a demo contest for his mix ‘Last Junglist Standing’ and the opportunity to open for such massive dnb names like Dara, D-Star and Hive. For the better part of the last decade, he was focused mainly on Jungle/Drum n Bass but in recent years began to branch out spinning House, Tech House, Speed Garage, Breaks, Dubstep and Hip-Hop making him a well rounded and versatile DJ. Renergized about playing music and bringing people some banging beats and bass, expect new mixes regularly , not restricted to any one style or genre just whatever feels right at the time.

(Tight Crew, SoulChampion, True Crew)

Performing for some of the most diverse crowds internationally, his sets have been witnessed from the United States to Europe & Canada. Scouring the planet for music, DJ PARALLAX always delivers the heaviest basslines and floor stomping underground beats.
DJ PARALLAX, also known as Frank Gallagher, began his career producing. Looping samples on an old 486DX PC in 1993 he was completely unaware of the blossoming underground dance music scene. Exposed to the dance music scene a few years later, he knew exactly where he fit. Already a DJ on a local radio station he switched formats and DJ PARALLAX, as he is known, was born.
Spinning 6 hours at a time On-Air he began mixing and blending different styles of dance music. “Earth Electronic”, his radio program on WXPL 91.3 FM, continued for 5 years. Eventually teaming up with other local DJs and bringing in special guests the show flourished for a time and was the only underground dance music radio program in the region.
With the growing success of the radio program, DJ PARALLAX began his journey through the local rave & club circuit. Promoting himself with countless hundreds of CDs and promotional materials he gained greater exposure in the Northeast. Playing from Boston, to Manchester, to New York, he perfected his skills in dancefloor filling and was soon picked up by many respected regional & national crews.
More recently, DJ PARALLAX has crossed over into the global scene. With frequent appearances all over the Northeast, Miami, DC, Denver, Halifax, Vancouver, and the UK, DJ PARALLAX plans to dominate the globe with his signature blend of 4×4, Speed Garage, Bassline & House.

Jaminic – Tropical Bass
(Brain Trust, CSC, Mass EDMC, True Crew)

Over the past few years, Boston based DJ/Producer Jaminic has been playing under his main project N.E. Tempo. For this young producer, music is a lifestyle, and he is an inspiration to other young artists who have seen him take a dream and run with it. His interest in playing music started in his early teens when, inspired by the radio, he wanted to learn to mix tracks himself. He started his music career spinning records and soon became immersed in more technology like CDJs and midi controllers. Influenced by artists such as Orchard Lounge, Dirty Bird Records, James Zabiela, and Modeselektor, Jaminic’s deep bass and melodic house beats create a feel-good Tropical atmosphere, where everyone wants to be. Currently a student, he has taken classes at the New England Institute of Art for Audio Production, such as Audio Technology–where he studied waveforms and frequencies, and Audio Recording, in which he recorded and edited a band in the studio. He is also largely self-taught though countless hours in the studio working on original production.
Jaminic started playing at local parties and clubs in Massachusetts including Goodlife, Middlesex, Phoenix Landing, Rise, and Umbria. He soon went on to play to bigger crowds at venues like Santos Party House in New York City, Lupo’s and Therapy in Road Island, Curve Ultra Lounge in Maine, and Castaway’s in New York State. Jaminic has played with some of the hottest artists including Nasty Nasty, Big Gigantic, Benga, Steve Porter, Zeds Dead, Orchard Lounge, Clockwork, Nightriders, Alex B, Two Fresh, Beats Antique BioDiesel, EOTO, Nit Grit, Sub Swara, Walter Jones and last but certainly not least Chas Bronz. He has affiliations with groups such as The Brain Trust, Mass EDMC, True Crew, and CreateSpace Collab (CSC). Ranging threw all genres of electronica Jaminic’s main style of sound is tropical bass, as it has many natural elements of global island vocals and crunchy bass lines. Presently, he has a monthly residency at An Tains in Boston called Bass Oasis, which features many local up-and-coming and headlining artists. He is also involved in the production of a music festival located in central Massachusetts called Camp Coldbrook, held in late June, which features live bands, DJs, a silent disco, and performance groups. Be on the look out for original Jaminic productions to be released spring 2012, to be found on Jaminic. You can also expect to see him blowing up festivals & dance floors at venues near you!

In 2011, Jasha released SPACE JESUS EP, which immediately brought him an incredible amount of followers throughout the East Coast. Quickly gaining recognition for his individuality, creativity, and high-energy live show, Space Jesus has been popping up all over the states, sharing the stage with incredible acts such as Conspirator, Two Fresh, Minnesota, The Polish Ambassador and Bluetech. Space Jesus has instantly become a mainstay of the electronic music festival scene, with appearances at The Magnetic Gathering and The Big Up in 2011. Hustlin’ hard into the new year, Space Jesus shown no signs of slowing down.
