Event name: Kryptonite
Starts: 2005/7/9
Country: Australia 
State/Territory: South Australia
Saturday, July 9th brings the dawn of a new era of parties in Adelaide.
In conjunction with Brisbane's Mayhem and Sydney's Utopia, Kryptonite will bring a new level of party to Adelaide's rave scene. With some of the biggest international and national names in the business and a spectrum of dance music styles to boot, Kryptonite will be one of the biggest indoor winter productions this city has feasted it's eyes and ears on!
The, as yet unnamed, venue will boast three awesome stages, all with phenomenal acoustics, mind-blowing sound systems and one of the best laser-light shows ever used for an event in Adelaide!
Along with this will be multiple carnival rides and simulators, bungee trampolines and a huge bouncy castle!
Kryptonite will also have a large selection of undercover outdoor market stalls,with a huge selection of nick-nacks and merchandise from local, interstate and international labels and retailers.
Just for starters with the lineup, and rest assure there is a stackload more to come, we bring a few acts to the table who have never touched the soil of Adelaide before.
Although having produced music for more than 10 years Alek Szahala (Finrg, Camel Records, Electronic, Nu-Energy, Cocoxqui) is a relatively new name in the international scene. Still he has truely been one of the key players in the recent development of the new wave of Finnish Hard Dance.
Alek exploded onto the hard dance scene in 2003 making an instant impact, both internationally and in his home country of Finland, with dozens of tracks including the supercharged 'Superstition' and 'Tlaloc'.
Alek Száhala has also voted 4th best in the artist/producer catergory in the Finnish Club Awards for 2003 and 2004.
For more than 10 years, UFO has been one of the leading lights in the UK hardcore movement, both as a gifted producer and a s highly talented performer. His music has featured on countless mix cd's including the legendary Bonkers series, and his tracks can be found on labels like Raver Baby, Hectech, Fusion, Cover UP and more. Most recently he has been made resident at the UK's premier hardcore event H.T.I.D (Hardocre till I Die) as well as writing new material and co-mixing along with Hixxy, Recon and Dougal. As a DJ, UFO has played regularly at some of the biggest and most respected UK events such as Slammin Vinyl, H.T.I.D. Sundissential, Hardcore Heaven, United Dance and Helter Skelter and also in countries including Australia, Canada, Spain, Japan and the United States.
Amsterdam based DJ Predator, a.k.a. Stephan Scheltema, had to deal with a rebellious, creative mind all his life. Lost in graffiti art during his childhood, he became intrigued by early Rap music, Breakbeats, Reggae and Electro. Over a period of six years, he managed to release more than sixty releases, most of them on labels such as Mokum, Ruffneck, Ruff EX, Cenobite and H2Oh. With the growth of the dance scene in general, Predator?s star was rising, providing him with more equipment and possibilities. Living his dream of expressing his musical thoughts on recordings, his enthusiasm earned him the status of label manager for one of Holland?s best selling labels, at the time owned by the reknowned record company XSV Music in Rotterdam. All his time and money he spent in and on his studio. Hit releases like Jiehaaaa, Pump Up The Vibe and Mind Of A Lunatic brought him recognition from around the globe, resulting in live performances and DJ bookings in worldwide, from Canada to Australia, from Russia to the United States, Germany, Holland, Swiss, the UK and more.
Complimenting the local, interstate and international acts will be live dancers to keep the energy rockin' and the dancefloor crankin'!
