The Halluci Nation ~ Creeasian & the della kit (The Loft)

**All shows 21+—valid ID required** Doors: 7:00 PM Show: 7:30 PM The Halluci Nation The Halluci Nation is real. As they enter a new cycle, Bear Witness and Tim “2oolman” Hill of A Tribe Called Red are reintroducing themselves as The Halluci Nation, to reflect the evolution of their music and mission. The Halluci Nation, takes its name from a phrase coined by John Trudell, to describe the vast global community of people who remember at their core what it means to be human. As a visionary artist and activist, Trudell recognized the connection between his accomplishments and what ATCR did intuitively through music and art. Trudell’s voice was the first heard on Tribe’s last record, We Are The HalluciNation, and will, fittingly, be the first you hear on The Halluci Nation’s upcoming record, One More Saturday Night. The album is a love letter to the Electric Pow Wow gatherings launched at Ottawa’s Babylon nightclub in 2007. It represents an imagined denouement to the biweekly Saturday-night parties that ended abruptly in 2017, without ever getting the proper send-off. OneMore Saturday Night thus pays homage to the parties’ energy and momentum that elevated The Halluci Nation to this pivotal point in their career of fully mastering their own music style while also moving beyond club music; or “mixing dance music with dance music,” as Bear Witness succinctly puts it.

Soft Crash (Phase Fatale b2b Pablo Bozzi, Silent Servant, Amnesiac Host (live)

Join us for the Philadelphia debut of Soft Crash, the collaborative project of Berlin-based Hayden Payne (Phase Fatale) and Pablo Bozzi. The pair describe their sound as “Italo Body Music,” taking influence in equal parts from synthwave, EBM, Italo and techno. Soft Crash will be fresh off the release of ‘Your Last Everything’, an 8-track LP where they expand their production focus to areas such as electro, acid house, bleep, hi-nrg, and IDM. ‘Your Last Everything’ is due out for release on October 28th via Payne’s own BITE Records label. Payne launched BITE in 2018 with ‘Confess’, a collaboration EP he wrote with LA-based Silent Servant. The two have a long history of working together, so it’s no coincidence they’re on the bill together this Black Friday.   Before the Soft Crash headline set, Silent Servant will take the decks to deliver his signature blend of EBM, minimal techno, and everything in-between. The project is the long-time moniker of Juan Mendez, who served as a key figure in the early-2000s Sandwell District collective with Karl O’Connor (Regis), Peter Sutton (Female), and David Sumner (Function). Mendez made unique blends of ambient textures and minimal techno with Sandwell before shifting focus to his Jealous God imprint, a label he formed with O’Connor and James Ruskin as a way to bridge gaps between the techno and EBM/industrial worlds.   DC-based Amnesiac Host opens the night with a live techno set: he’s half of the Darkroom Bureau label and one of the organizers behind ‘100% Live Techno’, an event series he co-hosts with Philadelphia-based Monix and several others. He recently released ‘Two-Sided Ideal’, a 3-track EP which prioritizes deep kicks and discordant atmospheres. Expect the live set to follow in similar form; he adds, “Everything takes shape in a continuous mix with a modular synth, MPC, and a xone92. I say ‘mix’ because I move between sequences on the xone similar to how I would move between tracks when DJing. I minimize hard transitions, spending more time on the EQs, faders, and filters instead. The overall atmosphere I try to make is one with lush chord pads and subtly-moving FM leads.”
