SPECIAL GUEST DJ
WHITE RABBIT [ATL]
http://facebook.com/The.White.Rabbit.DJ
http://soundcloud.com/white_rabbit
http://dj.beatport.com/thewhiterabbit

As a classically trained pianist, music has always played a huge role in her life. Although DJ’ing began as a hobby, it quickly turned into a passion. The White Rabbit began her journey on two belt-driven turntables in November of 2009 and made her first public appearance in April 2010. Since then, she has been playing at numerous clubs, underground venues and parties in and around the Atlanta area, as well as two out of state bookings in Auburn, Alabama earlier this year. Her style infuses an eclectic blend of breakbeats with techno, minimal and house, with an average BPM within the range of 125-135. With a love for dark melodies and dirrrty basslines, she plays each set with one goal in mind: to make people dance. Be sure to join her on her next musical trip down the rabbit hole...



RESIDENT DJ

His diverse repertoire for sculpting sound extends beyond nightclubs however and has led him to play across the east coast for numerous fashion shows, music festivals, art galleries and private showcase events for clients such as Christian Dior, BCBG, GUESS Clothing, Monster Energy, Redbull, Skull Candy, Jägermeister, and more. In 2011 he launched his other alter ego 'James Bondage' which has already been turning heads in the ebm, industrial and hardstyle music scenes.
