We have another exciting Beat Church coming up again after ringing in the new year of 2012! Come join us January 5th for cutting edge bass music and awesome people at Icon Lounge in S.F. here are some of the musical snacks we will be enjoying along with extra sound provided by our sound tech Matt Long
GLADKILL ( Headtron, Sound Plexus )
http://soundcloud.com/gladkill
Boris Gladkikh aka Gladkill has been on a meteoric rise in the electronic music scene since he first began playing live in 2009. Through his tremendous work ethic and tireless touring schedule, Gladkill has already played for massive audiences on the stages of large-scale music festivals such as Coachella, Lightning in a Bottle, Earthdance and Burning Man, winning over new fans with every stop.
Refusing to stick to the comfort of making one style of music, Gladkill has rewarded audiences through the sheer diversity of his songs, as he deftly moves between dominating dance floors with his sexy, crunked-out club bangers, as well as captivating home stereo speakers with more downtempo and melodic material.
When you listen to Gladkill’s songs or see him perform, you’ll discover an artist set apart between the sheets of cool bass lines and ethereal melodies. In an era where disposable dance music is big business, Gladkill makes anything but.
SIDECAR TOMMY ( Beats Antique )

One half of the titan group "Beats Antique", and percussionist in "The Yard Dogs Road Show", amongst other impressive feats-Tommy is nothing short of a musical genius. If you haven't checked out his solo project, he will be performing it and we are in for a treat.

EL PAPACHANGO ( El Circo )
http://www.myspace.com/akapapachango
Diego Novoa from Argentina moved to the states as a young adult and brought with him a love of music from south america that he blended with west coast underground breaks and hip-hop to create a sonic groove that is unique and infectious to dance floors everywhere. Sexy , soulful and funky sounds come out of him even when he's fast asleep. Diego is also one of the core creators of the legendary El Circo production that has been delivering music and a grip of very talented artists on massive systems across the planet including Lightning in a Bottle and epic years at Burning Man . He's been making panties drop since most of us were in diapers.
