It's time to do it again, and this time its personal! Tonight it is

First up we have the
legends:
...
DC (Algorhythms WMBR, Boston Breaks)
vs.
TRIXIE
(Rare Form Productions, Lightitupphilly.com)
DC: DC has
been involved with the electronic dance music scene in Boston and
the northeast since the early nineties. He got his start with
legendary Monstamind Crew, know for a series of breakbeat events in
Boston through the nineties. Currently DC appears every Saturday
night from 2-4 am along with DJ Endo on Algorhythms 88.1fm WMBR.
Bringing a much needed dose of electronic music to the airwaves
around Boston Mass.

Next
up we got the rave saving up and coming duo of:
Soappy
(Tight Crew)
vs.
Fig (Tight Crew)
In the summer
of 2008 a collaborative project was launched that would combine the
choice skill sets of two dynamic New England area breaks djs, namely
FiG and Soappy, to be known thereafter as Big n’ Dope! This
combination of experience and enthusiasm is firmly founded in the
duo’s strong technical proficiency, impeccable selection of
quality tracks and their innate ability to deliver high energy and
performance to seething dance floors.
FiG and Soappy
have a combined sphere of influence that reaches from Maine down to
Pennsylvania having made appearances at all points there and in
between. They have respectively and collaboratively been called upon
to open for such leading industry names as Adam Freeland, the
Freestylers and Uberzone versus Bassbin Twins.
In May of
2009 Big n’ Dope released their much anticipated self-titled
debut demo mix. The mix immediately garnered much praise from all
corners of the north east scene and has since become a favorite
amongst partygoers and industry professionals alike. Now firmly
established as a force within the north east scene this forward
thinking duo is cultivating an expanding sound and evolving far
beyond the borders of their breaks base to include dubstep, drum and
bass, house and various elements of psy. Look for many upcoming Big
n’ Dope appearances in the near future showcasing this sonic
evolution as well as the follow up demo mix now in the works. Hold
Tight!

Rounding
out the night will be the scratching and cross fadery of :
JSB
(Space, Monstamind)
vs.
DL (761, Beatdown)
JSB
: The man behind breaker's paradise. JSB's sets have been described
as "room-shaking, hard-hitting, booty-bouncing, head-nodding
cocktail of awesomeness!" JSB has been spinning since 2000 but has
finally hit the scene hard. Starting in 2008 in the underground he
continues to hold down one of the best lofts boston has ever scene.
Throwing one successful party after the next JSB is ready to bring
his style of music and parties above ground! Always known for taking
"risks" live and working in a lot of remixes JSB's favorite part of
electronic music is the "what's gonna happen next?" factor. Breaks
is the perfect genre for him as he has embraced the challenge of
combining big beat sounds from every genre of breaks into a cohesive
sound that always shocks people and has them wondering what tracks
were those, and did he do that mix live or was it all one track?
http://soundcloud.com/djjsbDL : On April 13, 2002 DL signed up for a dj battle at
the (now legendary) Club Asylum in Springfield, MA. He won first
place and feels that it was the event that got "his foot in the
door." DL found himself getting booked more often and continued to
promote himself by handing out mixes and networking with promoters.
Shortly after his win at the Asylum, DL went on to place first in
two more dj battles.
DL continues to be one of the
fastest rising breaks djs out of New England and continues to light
floors afire with a show like no other by combining all styles of
breaks and turntablism, doing live remixes, and bringing something
to the table like no other. With DL's nasty scratching and flawless
mixing and diverse styles, a serious force to be reckoned with
having played all over New England, NYC and as far as Florida, and
the West Coast. Make sure to stay late and catch this special tag
team set, and also for a chill after hours to be announced the night
of the show.
