Room 1: Hardstyle/HHC/DNB

Rip Reed // DnB & Dubstep // PA
(Hard Life, Good Vibes, Konkrete Jungle 215)

"uncompromising style, ferocious track selection, and uncomporable skill all describe this veteran dj. with 10 years experience behind the tables, this cat knows how to get it done. his sets are as unforgettable as they are eclectic. Rip Reed ushers in a new listening experience with every show he plays. known up and down the east coast for his take-no-priosners appraoch to Drum and Bass, its always a pleasure when he takes the stage. with anything from drum and bass to dubstep to hardcore and speedcore to original productions, you just never know whats going to happen next when hes in front of a crowd.

MF Parm // Hardstyle // Philly
(Nasty Crew, Hard Life, Good Vibes)

MF Parm Has been crushing philly with the nastiest hardstyle for years and has become increasingly skilled with every crowd he sees. It took only afew years for mf parms name to become synonymous with hardstyle in Philadelphia. This vinyl junkie is constantly buying the freshest hardcore releases and keeps his collection months ahead of the competition.

Joltz // Happy Hardcore // Pittsburgh
(Sunsettillsunrise, legions of dance, 412 approved)

Happy Daze // Happy Hardcore // VA
(Gen X Glow, Good Vibes Promo)

Render One // Drum N Bass // MD
(Bass Tasty, Good Vibes, Essence)

Room 2: House/Trance/Breaks/Techno

David Crisis // Return to DC Oldschool Set!! // NYC
(Boombatti Prod., Revive)

"Many of you have seen this DJ/Raver out numerous times before. It's not hard to spot the Charlie Brown looking kid that has the look of a 1997 raver. All the way from DC and now a New Yorker, D.Crisis is here to spin that old skool for all of you. He believes in "keeping the oldskool alive," and that's what he plans on doing. With his love of rave piano and oldskool music, he spins sets that take you back to a time when rave meant fun and people danced for connection, to have fun and share common good vibes. Dont miss his return to dc this April!!"

DJ 2Rip // Hard Techno // DC
(District Ignition, BAD ASS DJS)

DJ 2rip works emphatically as he develops a circuit within the gut of the underground music world. His events have been considered some of the best in the country. In 2008 one of his events received a nomination as one of the top 6 parties in the United States while his outlaw renegade events stirred up a society of latenight party monsters who would rage out in secret locations from 3am until late the next morning.

Within a decade of dj'ing, DJ 2rip has been at the helm of promoting raves and nightclub events in 5 different states in the Mid-Atlantic region. He has toured over twenty major cities around North America including Cancun, Mexico.

DJ 2rips style of mixing is technical, occasionally blending a series of tricks and scratches into a mix of techno, electro, bassline house, breaks, and dubstep. While considered to be a rave dj, he has also become a seasoned opener for many of the DJ Mags Top 100 artists.

Steve Bugbe // Hard Techno // VA

UTOPIA 15 Years
Acer Arena, Olympic Park
24th April 2010 - Anzac Long Weekend
8.30pm to 5.30am

In 1995 an event was born based on the idea of a reasonably priced party with a bunch of great local DJs and a vibe only created by us for the party people. That event was Utopia, and on a cold night in July of '95 the first Utopia was held. Over the course of the next few years the Utopia event grew in size and morphed from an underground party to a legally promoted event in advertised venues. The step-up to these was a larger legal warehouse in Homebush which brought in giant crowds, often doubling the amount of patrons from the previous event. From Utopia 7 to 10, the attendances doubled each time going from 1800 to 3200, then to 6000 and finally a staggering 10,000 people at Utopia 10 at Wonderland.

Now in 2010, Utopia is known as the leading all-night dance party in Australia, and is one of the biggest events of its type in the world. It's been running for a crazy 15 years, and that in itself is an outstanding achievement. It's a milestone that no other Sydney all-night party has reached. 15 years of supplying absolute killer parties, absolutely brilliant International, interstate and local talents, and absolutely phenomenal productions.

If you thought you'd seen some pretty outrageous Utopia parties over the years, just wait to see what we have in store for our 15th birthday! To say you will be blown away is an understatement. You will in fact be in awe as you enter the giant main room at the Acer Arena, and you will be speechless as a crescendo of the best and most vibrant technology and music engulf you. This event is set to be the perfect symphony of the ultimate in party technology: lasers so bright and colourful, lighting twirling and spinning and creating rainbows around you, bass oozing through the floor and up your spine.

Prepare for a birthday celebration only Powerhouse can dream of and create. You are about to enter what will truly be Utopia .........Our 15th Birthday.


INTERNATIONAL DJS

DARREN STYLES - LIVE (UK) http://www.darrenstyles.co.uk
With his vast musical knowledge and experimental ability, Darren Styles is one of the biggest names in hard dance music and one of the greatest Hardcore DJs. Originally part of the mighty Force & Styles with hits under his belt such as Pretty Green Eyes and Field of Dreams, Darren soon became one of the biggest names in UK hardcore. He has since collaborated with fellow hardcore producer and DJ Mark Breeze creating tracks like Youre Shining, Heartbeatz and 'You're My Angel'.
Darren is also responsible - along with Breeze and Hixxy - for the biggest selling UK hardcore compilation series, Clubland X-Treme Hardcore, which has now racked up sales of over 1 million across its 6 volumes. He is also currently working on the follow-up to his debut solo album Skydivin which entered the official UK album charts at number 4 and has sold over 200,000 copies to date.
Darren has won a number of hardcore awards during his career recently including Best DJ 2006 and 2007, Best Producer 2006 and 2008, Best Hardcore Tune 2006, 2008 and 2009.

MARK BREEZE (UK) http://www.markbreeze.co.uk
Since producing and mixing the scene's biggest ever selling Hardcore compilation, Clubland Xtreme Hardcore, Breeze has seen the hardcore scene grow into what is now one of the biggest and most popular dance music genres in the UK today. Having 2 top twenty hit records (You're Shining & Heartbeatz), 4 top 40's and 5 gold selling Xtreme hardcore albums, there is no stopping this highly rated and talented producer.

Aside from the countless A-list productions he features on, you can count on the Whizzkid to blow your mind with his amazing style, energy and lyrical hooks. He has been crowned by the ravers as the 'Worlds Best Hardcore MC' for the past TWO years. When it comes to the people's choice, look no further! You can see him LIVE on the night, during Darren Styles', Mark Breeze's AND Weaver's set!

T-JUNCTION (NL) http://www.myspace.com/djtjunction

He then continued to release classic tracks like Whats Up With Life, The Rise And Fall, The Voice Of Power, Adrenaline Shotz and I Declare War.

He has played at many of the massive hardcore festivals including Dominator, Nightmare, Thunderdome, Defqon.1, Decibel, and Mystery Land. After his move to Masters of Hardcore in 2009, T-Junction is determined to conquer the world with his true dedication to hardcore music.

Luna has played such massive Holland events as Defqon.1, Mysteryland, and his own one-man show in the massive Geldredome Stadium in 2005. His career was rocketed mainly by the way he presents himself behind the decks, his fabulous mixing skills and the total dedication and passion for his work. Utopia is proud to welcome this magician on the wheels of steel. Welcome to Sydney Australia, DJ Luna!

A TASTE OF THE HARDCORE TIL I DIE EXPERIENCE WILL STILL MAKING ITS WAY TO THE EAST COAST AFTERALL THIS APRIL!! DONT MISS THE ILLEST HAPPY HARDCORE PARTY THAT BALTIMORE HAS EVER SEEN FEATURING UK LEGEND MARC SMITH AND FORCE 9'S FIRST APPEARENCE IN BALTIMORE!! YOU CANT STOP HARDCORE ;D!!!!


MAIN ROOM: HAPPY HARDCORE / HARDSTYLE

Marc Smith // Happy Hardcore // UK
(Notorious Vinyl, Hardcore Til I Die, Ravers Only)

NOTORIOUS BY NAME,.. A NOTORIOUS LEGEND BY NATURE! Only a few other artists in the UK hardcore scene can boast the pedigree, experience and talents of the Scottish rave legend Marc Smith. Still blowing back the rave boundaries today, Marcs journey through turntable culture can be tracked right back to 1985 when the ultra charismatic Glaswegian began chopping up early hip hop in his bedroom, before teaming up with local rappers, beat-boxers and break-dancers.

It was two years later, however, in 1987 when a 17 year old Smith gained his first true rave culture experience, with his ultra quick wristed mixing and scratching deck talents securing him a long standing residency at one of Glasgows early acid house havens at The Warehouse. Offering invaluable early club experience, Marcs intuitive talents didnt go unnoticed with further long running residencies at The Club Hacienda, and Euphoria @ Heaven following quickly behind. Spinning early dance classics like Voodoo Ray and Joey Beltrams Energy Flash, these nights and Marcs djing skills were to become infamous in the formative Scottish clubbing culture, and made DJ Marc Smith a household rave name practically over night. With armys of ravers following his every move, Marc soon earned a reputation as a truly versatile DJ who pushed the mixer, the turntables and his music to its absolute limits, merging the turntable intensity of his hip hop schooling with the electric energy of early rave culture.

The early 90s rolled on by and rave's energy had built the scene into an explosive force with Marc Smith riding high at the forefront of the movement. Now known as a true innovator and pioneering DJ and producer, Marc was deservedly voted Scotland's No 1 dj by the readers of Clubscene magazine the Scottish clubbers' bible and went on to win that title for the next 6 years in a row, as well as numerous other accolades... like voted Best Scottish dj in the Irish Dance Music Awards, and also Best Scottish DJ by the listeners of the late, great Tom Wilson's show "Stepping Out" on Forth FM. Legendary massive parties like Holocaust, Technodrome, Amnesia, World Party, Awesome 101 and Earthquaker and the like's soon called upon Smith's dynamite deck talents as the seminal Scottish bouncy techno sound began to take shape around 1993. Between 1993 and 1995, Marc took on his prized residency at the massive Rezerection party where his sets there have went down in Scottish rave history. . . Often likened to the Scottish version of Slipmatt or Sy

Over the late 90s, Marc has continued to spread his banging party friendly DJ sound at raves across Scotland and all over the uk with a jam packed gig diary - regularly rockin parties like Hardcore Heaven and his long running Northern residency of Vibealite to mention just a few. Around this period, Smith continued to work closely with fellow Scottish rave legend Scott Brown and started the label Federation Records with him, and went on to also do remixes and productions on Browns legendary Evolution label whilst Ultra Sonic, TTF, Chemical Mass, El Bruto and Ultimate Buzz and many others all benefiting from Smiths distinctive remixing magic touch.

The next few years were spent preparing and perfecting the awaited relaunch of his Notorious Vinyl whilst headlining DJ sets continued to roll in at the likes of HTID, Uproar, Slammin Vinyl, Vibealite and the infamous Tidy Weekenders. During this time Smiths international diary continued to read like a Heathrow Airport departure board with sets in Australia, Austria, Holland, Canada and New York to reel off just a few.

Whilst so many others follow the obvious fads and fashions, Marc Smith continues to reel in an abundance of main room bookings and make a Notorious name for himself by stamping out his own and his labels unique party friendly sound without surrendering to the more mainstream oriented side of the hardcore scene. Pure hardcore power with all the notorious Smith individuality. Fast paced and accompanied by the Scotsmans party loving energy and infectious charisma, Smiths own DJ sets with his flawless mixing and awesome deck abilities, coupled with his awesome stage presence continue to stand out as the most explosive, energetic, diverse and open-minded in todays scene! As everything from partycore energy, uplifting synth riffs and even massive vocal numbers to brockin drum & bass tracks whip up the rave storm like only Marc Smith knows how!!

Over twenty years at the top of his game and still as Notorious as ever, Marc Smith isa true rave legend and entertainer like no other!!
