Featuring electronic greatness from the likes of:

Charles Feelgood

//funky shit-hard house-techno-electro
Legendary for his role in the birth of the electronic music scene in the Baltimore/Washington DC area, Charles Feelgood has built a reputation as a DJ in the international dance community through his ingenious remix skills and a dynamic brand of funky disco and hard house.

The consummated dance floor rocker, Feelgood sums up his musical mission in one sentence: "I just want to do what the name implies, to make people have a good time and go home with a great feeling."

He is sure to have you grinning from ear to ear so much it will make your face hurt. There is almost no way to stand still while this man is on the decks. His tunes will definitely have you feeling good (if not super awesome) the whole entire time.

//minimal-house-trace-and more...
Back in the days of the dinosaurs a caveman found music by beating two rocks together. After a major ice storm the caveman was frozen and his body was found in a glacier in the mountains. He was then taken to Washington, DC where he was left to thaw.

After regaining consciousness he learned to speak English and was given a name – Jason Ramsey. Jason soon drew musical inspiration from a very eclectic set of artists. Near the height of the nineties, he drew from this inspiration to establish himself as a dj in Washington, DC, taking on the moniker of “ramz.”

More recently, Jason has developed his musical tastes from the tribal and progressive he was known for in the years of Buzz to a more refined taste which revolves around a combination of minimal, Swedish house and a small taste of trance when it's necessary. Jason has not only been invited to open the stage for dj's such as Gabriel & Dresden, George Acosta & BT but his mix series "Aural Fixation" has been in high demand across the country. That's a pretty good resume for a displaced homo-sapien from the Paleolithic era.

DJ 2Rip

District Ignition / Washington DC
//anything and everything
Some people filter through the music, purchasing music that is acceptable because everyone else is listening to it or because “it’s hot.” Then there are people who dig deep to find unique music that isn’t necessarily being sustained by pop culture. There are the people who absorb music like a sponge; ignoring labels, bucking trends – forever on a quest to find the perfect record. DJ 2rip falls into the latter category.

He has made his mark over the course of a decade by hosting events around the mid-Atlantic, including abandoned apartment buildings and warehouse lofts to superclubs like Ibiza and Fur. With many ups and downs throughout his career his music has always been edgy and upfront. With that notion constantly in mind, DJ 2rip also maintains an ability to span several genres to create a unique musical journey.

He will fill your dancing shoes with pure awesomeness!!

The name is synonymous with breakbeat perfection.

They have been mixing records since some of us were still in diapers and have so much skill between the 3 of them they could just spontaneously combust at any moment when they are on the decks. So watch out!! Even if they don't catch on fire, the dancefloor surely will, so make sure you wear flame retardant shoes!
