The Chilluminati, in our 5th year, present a 3 day festival focusing on psychedelic music, art, and culture, all within the Earthdance concept. This is an official and registered Earthdance event.

Earthdance, the Global Dance Festival for Peace has grown to become the world’s largest simultaneous music and dance event. Founded in 1996, with 22 cities and 18 countries participating, Earthdance has grown to over 300 locations in 6…0 countries participating in 2007, with locations ranging from the club-lands of New York to the rainforests of Brazil. Every year, in alignment with the International Day of Peace, over 200,000 people unite in dance with hundreds of thousands more joining online in support of global peace and humanitarian aims.

September 18, 2010 is this year’s Earthdance day, when individuals, private gatherings and public events across the globe celebrate and activate peace through creative expression, activism and community-building – all joining in the Prayer for Peace at the same powerful moment!

2010’s focus is Embracing All Traditions – recognizing and honoring the diversity of faiths and cultures that make up our human family.

This year Earthdance will observe this theme during 8 Days of Peace starting on Earthdance day and culminating in a worldwide synchronized Prayer for Peace in the Holy Land, in collaboration with One Peace Jerusalem. The Earthdance Network and Earthdance.TV will present a range of exclusive content related to the theme during the week, including Expressions of Peace – photos, videos and music tracks – submitted by the Earthdance community. Many Earthdance promoters will also be holding events on this day.

The defining moment of each Earthdance event is a synchronized link-up, when every event around the world plays a specially produced song called “The Prayer for Peace” at exactly the same time.

Earthdance has been described by the music industry as the “Dance Aid” for the new millennium. The aim of the event is to bring together global communities to create a synchronized global festival and dance event to help fund humanitarian causes and develop an environment of peace throughout the global community.

Earthdance is a non-political event and is organized by Earthdance International, a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization.

Join us on the Earthdance Network!

// THE PAKA PAKA LIGHTSHOW (Milwaukee – www.pakapaka.org)

The Paka Paka Lightshow consists of the father & son team Jerry and Reuben Fortier and long time collaborator Dale Kaminski. In 1968, Fortier founded the Eyes of Khamphalous Lightshow in Madison, WI. As the visuals behind the Broadway production of “Warp” and the resident lightshow for the Melkweg and Paradiso clubs in Amsterdam from 1969 to 1972, the Khamphalous Lightshow created a unique psychedelic visual experience. The Paka Paka Lightshow brings this experience into the digital age.

// VJ eNdo (Video Alchemy ~ AZ)

eNdo is a video alchemist from the desert southwest who has established himself as a staple among the U.S. psytrance community. Having conjured distinct, beat-driven visuals for over ten years, his recipe for mind-melting and energizing video art has continually been refined to raise vibrations and engage dancefloors across the country. From metaphysical and esoteric imagery, morphing organics, and glitchy dysfunctional computer output, your retinas will be taken on a journey from the microcosm to the macrocosm and everything in between. Be sure to strap your brains in and hold on tight!

DREAMSCAPES



Bioluminescense LIVE PA (Progressive Tribal)
Pangea
(Pure Perception/Pangea)


Bioluminescense is the exciting collaboration of DJ’s Kameleon & Labyrinth. In their own worlds they concoct hypnotic journeys that have made people move for many years, but with their powers combined they bring together a refreshing new sound. Combining influences from many years of collecting, DJing, and producing electronic music, their sound is deep, driving, and brings new ideas to classic progressive sequencing. The two have been working hard in the studio making sure each track is full of life, with a truly organic feel.

Dex (Psytrance)
Boston,MA
(Beat Forge)


The mind-bending frequencies projected through this boy have been known to engulf spectators, hurtling them into the 12th dimension. Inverting the gravitational pull from coast to coast, this is a force not to be reckoned with. Oozing melodies and goa tantrums create twisting soundscapes warping dance floors beyond this universe.

Parable Live PA(Techno/New Trance)
San Diego,CA
(Rock1825, Mystro Productions)


Parable has peformed under several names and with many other musicians over the last six years. Under the Parable moniker he performs a new hybrid combination of DJ’ing and live performance. His current set uses a combination of digital mixing, live synthesizers, and guitar, with tracks ranging from Minimal and Techno to New Trance. He is also currently working on a new colaboration with DJ Intrigued . His background is diverse ranging from being classically trained on Trumpet, French Horn, and Mellophone to playing Lead Guitar with the band Relentless Pursuit. He currently holds a residency with the 1825 Revolver in San Diego, Ca. Check out his current shows and be prepared for the unexpected.

NIGHTMARES

Richard Devine LIVE PA (IDM/Experimental)
Atlanta,Ga
(Warp Records/Schematic)


During the past three years, Richard Devine has remixed top warp artists suchas Aphex Twin and Mike Patton(Faith No More). He has released full length albums on Schematic, Warp, Asphodel, and Sublight Records and has performed his own ear -tearing musical mayhem worldwide. Based from Atlanta,GA he has done filmscore work for Touchstone Pictures. He has also collacorated with BT on the movie “Surveillance”,and has done sound programming/mangling for Trent Reznor of Nine Inch Nails. Get ready for Richard to unleash hell on Halloween, pushing beats up to 666 BPMs!

Medevil (Dubstep)
Asheville,NC
(T.O.U.C.H Samadhi/Those People)


In late 2002 the duo of Medevil was unleashed onto the scene. Composed of the musical stylings of Medisin & Psyonic, the two had already made names for themselves as Psytrance Dj’s. But as a team they found that together they had their own special style and sound when they played ear blasting Dubstep. Medisin is med and Psyonic is evil and so there Medevil was born. The two have moved crowds all over the U.S. with their truly evil bass. Get ready for Halloween nastiness like no other, and prepare to hang on to your asshats, because they will surely blow them away!!

Ascension Sessions: Principle Energy – Atlanta, GA

Posted on 26 Jun 2009

June 26, 2009 10:00 pmtoJune 27, 2009 8:00 am

We are approaching a return to living in an intimate awareness of, and appreciation for, the fundamental laws underlying our existence. Mathematics is the universal language through which our ancestors preserved deep insights into the human experience. Geometry is the sacred medium through which artisans, scientists, explorers and theologians continue to transcend the dualistic patterns of our temporal realities.

iOpener Entertainment is proud to present “Principle Energy”, the first installment in our Ascension Sessions platform. We invite you to join us for a night of cosmic celebration as we trace the complex patterns in the sky with the ecstatic rhythms of our bodies.

iOpener Philosophy
——————

Dance is the re-awakened art form of our time and a driving force of our better natures. Through the universal exploration of movement we align ourselves once more with a lost primordial relationship to our bodies, to our planet, and to each other.

We dedicate this gathering to open hearts and open minds and hope that you come bearing the enthusiasm and positive vibes that truly define the essence of celebration.

Dreamtime Circus afterparty – Oakland, CA

Posted on 20 Jun 2009

June 20, 2009
8:00 amto11:00 pm

In “Beyond Shadows” the Dreamtime Circus returns to present a vision of a circus in crisis. Though brimming with talent, the performers cannot reach their true potential as they are hobbled by their various forms of negativity, sometimes with disastrous consequences. The circus finds perspective and redemption when the performers are transported to a mystical realm where they confront the shadows lurking within themselves. The story unfolds in an elaborate show of aerial acrobatics, juggling, contortion, hooping, clowning, video, and shadow dance set to a mix of original music and locally produced dubstep courtesy of Full Melt Records.

The experience of “Beyond Shadows” goes beyond the show on stage to a full circus midway with carnival games to kissing booths set up for the audience. The Dreamtime Circus’s previous show “Between Worlds” sold out every show so purchasing your tickets in advance is highly recommended.

All proceeds benefit the Dreamtime South America tour, bringing free circus performance and workshops to communities throughout Ecuador and Peru.

Age 14 the afro-haired producer went to his first club, Forward>> at London’s now defunct Velvet Rooms, the night widely acknowledged for founding the bassy UK garage hybrid, dubstep.

Having put in years of graft, Benga, now age 21, is a leading light in the rising global dubstep movement alongside the likes of Skream, Kromestar, Rusko, Coki and many more.

For the first time ever, Benga will play in North Carolina and we are very lucky to have that happen here in the cultural and musical hotbed we know as Asheville.

Recent excursions have found him deep in the bass-heavy realm of dubstep swimming through the sub frequencies…
