ZERO GRAVITY CIRCUS PERFORMANCE
aerial circus show! This Toronto-based performance group creates shows
for events all across North America and around the world. They have
built themselves into an important hub of activity in that realm and
any incredible new performer that comes to Toronto ends up at Zero
Gravity with their talent. Zero Gravity will be holding a special
Harvest version of their regular Lunacy Cabaret. They will be erecting
their steel acrobat rigging near the pyramid and you can expect
sweeping aerial dancers, breakdancers, jugglers and acrobatics. Their
show will lead up to the lighting of the bonfire. We are so lucky and
looking forward to this part of the festival.

Phawn presents Nuclear Ramjet, Yeb, DJ Target, Christian Skjodt and.. Me!
by mentalfloss on Mar.09, 2005, under - Main Page -, Upcoming Gigs
Another gig, and if you're looking for something new in your aural experience, this is the one!
Ever since I setup my “little” home theater with a 5.1 speaker setup,
I've been seriously interested in mixing music in 5.1. Nuclear
Ramjet has crafted their set specifically for this so I'm interested to
see how it goes. Hopefully lots of the .1! (“low frequency
effect”, a.k.a. mad bass)
Just a heads up that space is going to be really, really limited, so
it's worth coming early. It's a studio space, so it'll be nice
and “intimate”. Plus, I asked to open so you'll get to hear
me!
Black Light Activists – Critical Mass at Boa Redux /w Koxbox

I'm
a bit slow on the draw, but this was a wicked event I had a chance to
play at with Gabor last week in the massive club Boa-Redux in Toronto. Boa is a converted
dinner theater and has apparently one of the top 3 sound systems in
North America. Much fun had by all. If anyone has any photos please post some links as comments!

Harvest Festival September 25/26, Toronto (Coburg), Ontario
by mentalfloss on Sep.04, 2004, under - Main Page -, Upcoming Gigs

Woohoo! Harvest Festival once again, and I'm really looking
forward to playing. Please come out! Other than being a great chance to
camp out one last time before the weather gets cold, it's a great 2
days to relax and hear a large variety of electronic-influenced
music. Be sure to bring winter-style clothes though, since it can
sometimes get a bit chilly at night.
THE HARVEST FESTIVAL
autumn equinox
September 25th/26th 2004
Once again it’s time to kiss the summer good-bye, boogie to our
favorite DJs & performers, and to gather by the bonfire, on the
dance floor and under the stars. This year’s new location, Wholearth
Farmstudio, is near Coburg, Ont. We’d like to send our deepest
condolences to Aldida Farm for their loss, and many thanks for their
kindness over the years. Rocco, our friend & partner, will be
greatly missed.
