JOHN B

British super producer John B has known for ages what Lady Gaga is only just discovering: the importance of pushing boundaries with a well-manicured hand.

With his fondness for eye liner, nail varnish and retro kitsch, John B has become one of the most eclectic and unique individuals in electronic music. His playful stretching of the genre’s elastic over the past ten years has meant he’s been able to work with figureheads from all corners of the scene. From Metalheadz boss Goldie, to legendary global DJ Paul Oakenfold.

CANDYLAND

Santa Barbara natives Ethan and Josie better known as CANDYLAND began producing their own original songs back in May of 2011. They have since put out multiple bootlegs & remixes of big tunes, including “Sandstorm” by Darude, “Rattle” by Bingo Players, “Make It Bun Dem” by Skrillex, and “Can’t Control Myself” by Krewella. They are poised to rise to the top of the trap, dubstep & electro game and we bring them to you now for their first performance in Baltimore.

LEMZ (house)
www.facebook.com/DJLemz
www.soundcloud.com/djlemz

As a producer, Lemz slides between a myriad of genres with a grace enviable by many. His original productions pull from Electro, Progressive House, Baltimore Club, Techno, Industrial, Minimal, Deep House, and straight up pop music – sometimes all on a SINGLE tune! At the tender age of 13, when most of us where preoccupied about sitting at the “cool table” in the cafeteria, Lemz was teaching himself to DJ. The California native was playing shows he couldn’t attend as a mere audience member. Lemz was playing in clubs when you were still in your backyard clubhouses.

And, over the next decade, Lemz has garnered the respect of some of the reigning figures in the music industry by knowing how to keep a crowd moving wherever he plays. Before the age of 20, Lemz had already toured the world making the hardest, most seasoned party goers lose their fucking minds to his sets. It’s no wonder Lemz has already shared the stage with Yelle, Rye Rye, Peaches, Housse De Racket, Kid Sister, DJ Sega, AC Slater, Shunda K (of Yo! Majesty), MEN, JD Sampson, Nadastrom and Bird Peterson, among others.

2RIP & MALPHUNKTION (house)
www.facebook.com/thedj2rip
www.facebook.com/malphunktionbmore

This trio has shared the stage at parties for over half a decade, but on New Years of last year decided to put their musical & dj skills together in a massive 2 hour tagteam set that annihilated the main room of the paradox, leaving the crowd drenched in sweat.

Such good times always call for a rewind and we are pleased to say that they will have at it again this year. The trio will be blending everything from house to techno and progressive combined with 2rip’s rare showcase of battle scratching and turntable tricks.

THE SHOK TROPPERS (breaks)
aka THE WETSTEPPERS & JAY SHOK
www.facebook.com/thewetsteppers
www.facebook.com/jayshok

This three DJ’s have been playing parties over 28 + years between the the lot of them. Both The Wetsteppers and Jay Shok share a huge love for the music and the dance floor. Never before have they played live together but only separately. Wanting to deliver something better than either of them apart they have come together to bring you something truly monumental and a bass experience sure to rock you to the core! There’s even the talk of 4 CDJ’s and 2 Mixer’s being used, guess you’ll have to be there to find out. Are you ready to get down to the sounds of THE SHOK TROPPERS?
