SUMMARY:Israel Vines, Lonefront & The Valley and The Mountain
DESCRIPTION:Depth celebrates 6 years in Seattle with a night of debuts and the return of one of our favorite acts! To celebrate, we’ve brought some incredible people in for debut appearances, and a return from one of our favorites with a new sound!\nThe Valley and the Mountain (Detroit – Seattle debut!): In 2012, veteran Detroit producer and DJ Josh Dahlberg quietly shuttered his Blank Artists imprint to write music secretly as The Valley and the Mountain (abbr. TVTM). He’s since released a series of records alongside artists like Gerald Donald, DJ Stingray, DMX Krew, and Optimo. As TVTM, Dahlberg explores the tension between nature and technology, drawing upon broad influences to create works ranging from ambient textures to moody dance floor grooves. Known as a versatile, albeit reclusive, DJ and producer Dahlberg continues to explore the vastness of experimental electronic music while honoring his house and techno roots.\nLonefront (Minneapolis – Seattle debut with live PA/synthesis and beat programming!): Life rings out from inside an imploded glossary: popped phenomena, disused technos, colonized spaces, hollowed-out comedowns and the inarticulable noises they withhold. This unbearable noise beyond the pale of articulation is giving life after Babel: a rhythmic and tonal program for the reanimation of dead materials, rendering immanent a syntonic grammar of the spirit. Nodes open on the one end to a brutality: the monolithic grind of silicon on carbon, a glacial scream, wake of expropriated blood and dirt jamming up the optics. On the other end, a coy ecstasy: self-taught Prometheus two-stepping in the church of house, speaking languages he himself doesn’t understand, sliding through transatlantic fibers to pull up on the steel husks of server farms and hex the surveillance chains his damn self. Between these twin valences lies the cultivation of a deep mnemonic nod, ever-flickering between the speculative future of progress and the drone of decay. Get in tune with carcasses of factories, a chorus of tongues spouting silent mantras, a silent stream of error-riddled program scripts: the flux and snap of trauma incants the noise beyond language that compels movement, and sets you free.\nIsrael Vines (LA – rare UKG/D&B set): Israel Vines — or just Izzy to his friends — is an artist, musician, and DJ who approaches electronic music on his own terms, with his own voice. Born in the South, raised in the Midwest, and realized in Los Angeles, Vines has carved out a singular space in the American underground, commingling futurist techno energy with raw, unbridled punk spirit — for Israel Vines, “techno” is not so much a sound as a frame. He borrows the unabashedly political swagger and intensity of early hardcore and hip-hop, pairing them with outer-world synthetic tones and interlocking bass-heavy polyrhythms that recall boundary-crossing sounds from London and Bristol. In search of the space between, Vines pushes dancefloors to their catalyzing point. Like many of his contemporaries, Vines came up in the American Midwest, the fertile crescent of first-wave techno and house. His education began in the house parties and DIY raves of East Lansing and Ann Arbor, where fast ‘n nimble local selectors of the day mixed records with quick cuts and high tempos — and just like it was for many others, Underground Resistance, Basic Channel, and the rumblings of Birmingham techno opened his third eye. Later, a stint behind the counter at Chicago’s legendary Gramaphone Records deepened Vines’ appreciation for the art of DJing and gave him first-hand access to the tools of the trade. Graduate school in Detroit was where he sharpened his appreciation of techno as an artform — and made contact with Erika and BMG of Interdimensional Transmissions. Eventually, he made his way west, settled in Los Angeles, and began to coax sound out of the ether himself.\n21+\n10pm-3am\nKremwerk (downstairs)\nProof of Covid vaccination required\n Purchase tickets\n Facebook event page\n  Return to main calendar\n
