About this event
MINNESOTA
Christian Bauhofer, known by his fans as his party-crushing alter ego Minnesota, is one of the most innovative and proficient electronic producers to come out of the West Coast bass music movement. His sound breaks away from the various subgenres of EDM but holds onto origins of dubstep and hip-hop, creating a truly authentic experience for his audience. Early on in his career Minnesota said, “My goal is to make bass heavy dubstep/glitch-hop music that’ll get you dancing, but it is not the same old three note transformer step... I try to focus more on the melodic side of dubstep, and hopefully, make quality songwriting a more relevant factor in the genre.” For the past eight years Minnesota has followed through on his word and designed smooth, melodic, uplifting sounds, which fans have celebrated nationwide.
THELEM
With raw passion for the music he sculpts and a genre-bending approach to musical production, the internationally-acclaimed artist known as Thelem has established a global presence with his uncanny ability to attract fans across the entire underground bass music spectrum. Thelem has earned adoration by fans ranging from 140-BPM diehards who spinback his hit “Bring Me Down” and to hip hop and trap heads with tracks such as “Cliques” and “Choppah,” plus EPs such as “Informers” and “Third Time Lucky.” His signature sound is enveloped in dark, impactful basslines and dynamic glitch-hop tempo changes that hit you at your core. His recent double-releases called “Backchat” and “Clickbait” garnered the attention of Magnetic Magazine, who called referred to Thelem’s production style as “brilliant” and one that “leaves you wanting more every time.”
Since relocating from the UK to Los Angeles in 2016, Thelem has launched his career to new heights, appearing at Bassnectar’s 2019 Freestyle Sessions in Denver, CO and has shared stages with Caspa, Minnesota, The Widdler, Space Jesus, Bukez Finezt, Bleep Bloop, as well as festival appearances at Shambhala Music Festival, Lightning in a Bottle Festival, Infrasound Music Festival, Camp Bisco, Emissions Festival, Bass Coast Festival, Valhalla Sound Circus, and many more. The future remains bright for Thelem as he’s busy in the studio working on his next solo EP and upcoming releases, filling his musical library with dubplates and new compositions as he embarks as direct support on all 60 stops on Minnesota’s highly anticipated “Exit/Reality” tour throughout early 2020.
TRUNKZ
Trunkz (Jim) is an original dubstep East Coast DJ and producer hailing from New York and the underground city scene since 2012. Playing under the name Mastadon Sound at that time, Trunkz decided to pick up everything he owned and move out west in 2014 to Denver Colorado. Here is when he pushed full throttle with his DJ career, shifting into his new producing project, the alias formally now known as Trunkz. Trunkz has played many major venues in both New York and Colorado, such as the Westcott Theatre, Beta Nightclub, Cervantes and Ten Mile Music Hall through out the last few years with many major headlining artists within the dubstep and EDM community. In 2018, Trunkz worked day and night to complete his unique sound, and within a short year, released his first track on BASSCAPITAL Records “Stomp”. Trunkz throws a lively and energetic party, and it is one show experience you do not want to miss.
