Disorient presents: DREAMLAND at NYC*Gratitude/A Village of Light

December 10, 2010 | 6PM - 6AM
The Electric Warehouse
1428 Fulton St, Brooklyn NY

Get your tickets while they last! Tiers 1 & 2 are already sold out! http://villageoflight.ticketleap.com/nycgratitude We recommend purchasing in advance to ensure entry as tickets are approaching a sell-out. IF available, tickets at the door will be: $30 costume, $40 street wear.

Happy hour drink specials from 6-8pm! Catch headliner Karim So's (Luvstep/LA) early set from 6-8pm in the GRATITUDE Tent. We're starting off with a bang!

...Disorient presents: DREAMLAND at NYC*Gratitude/A Village of Light, the sweeping DEc. COMmunity celebration of burners in NYC and beyond. Closing out the commemoration of Disorient's 10th year as a Burning Man theme camp, Annabelle (Boston) and Soooz (Queens) lead the creation of our signature Pornj Puddle: a lush and luxurious upstairs chill area adorned with an abundance of Moroccan-style draped fabric, carpets, seating, bedding, and pillows. Lit with LED art designed by Leo Villareal and dreamy disorienting projections by VJ Gui"aum"etriX, DREAMLAND will create multiple intimate environments for moments of relaxation and escape for grateful dancers and partygoers, with four balconies to keep an eye on all the action on the main floor.

DREAMLAND will be hosting the Massage Salon!

"The Massage Salon is a welcoming creative space both for us to offer therapeutic massage therapy bodywork to the whole community, and for you to care for each other directly.

We will offer a refuge, an oasis of healing and stirring physical direct experience in the heart of the city but at the edge of life's wilderness.

Aesthetics and logistics open-ended and subject to change -- but envision breezy caravanserai tenting, glow-rope, springy mats, diffuse ambient lighting, wafting music and scents to soothe... seek refuge from the crash and the mosh, take a deep breath, stretch out and let the cords of your muscles unwind."

When you've rested enough, boogie down with a six-pack of your favorite Disorient DJs. The headliners hold court in front of Disorient's Art Car Wash LED sign in the LIGHT Arena (main room):
-Arrow Chrome (NYC)
-Friar Tuck (NYC)

Other Disorient residents will spin on Disorient's own sound system in the GRATITUDE Tent (a heated, outdoor dance environment with JustinJustin TOCA & Ale' Ale' Drummers, the percussionists who regularly accompany Disorient).
-The Bass (NYC)
-Miss Sabado (NYC/LA)
-Orion Keyser (NYC)
-Reda Briki (NYC)

We're also very excited about two friends flying in from Cali.
-An*ten*nae (Acid Crunk/SF) returns to NYC by popular demand, performing an encore to his whomping set before Arrow Chrome during the ACID CRUNK VOL. 3 WORLD TOUR release party presented by One Good Reason at Rebel.
-Karim So (Luvstep/LA) makes his New York debut after widespread West Coast acclaim, including the Disorient Stage at LA DECOM 2009.

Don't miss the other top NYC-based DJs who've made our cut to spin at Disorient events in the past: D_Juice (House of Yes), Jon Margulies (Hobotech), Joro-Boro (Etno-Teck), Morphous w/ ShiZaru (Tsunami Bass Experience), and Tektite (Vitamin B).

For a change of pace, Disorienter Joshua Tennent is curating live music and will be opening with a classical guitar set in the SOUND Sector (live music tent, Kostume Kult, and late night DJs). He'll be joined on guitar by Disorient veteran Jester Jaimi and Perry Phoenix for the predictably unpredictable musical adventures of Acoustic Noise Complaint. Expect distinctive live music and visuals from Lenkadu (Boston), a frequent collaborator with Disorient and PEX.

Feasting your eyes, Disorient alum Wheylan presents an all new fashion show in the LIGHT Arena (main room) at midnight! Please arrive by 11:30 to secure a place.

Finally, many more DOers and other burners have been working über-hard behind the scenes to make the magic happen!

Disorient presents: COMPRESSOR VI

Re-envisioning Metropolis
Saturday, July 17, 2010
9pm-6am
21+

Times Square Arts Center
669 8th Avenue
New York, NY

Berlin's Love Parade headliners Tune Brothers make their NYC debut!

COMPRESSOR is Disorient's annual ignition of the collective rocket that drives our community to the playa. It's a chance to premiere the latest art and performances that will define us in Black Rock City. By popular demand, we're returning to the air-conditioned Times Square Arts Center, where we all had a blast at Black & Light Ball.

This year’s COMPRESSOR theme will focus on reclaiming the future of Metropolis through high-tech interactive art and parables of sustainability in the heart of our Metropolis. How do the denizens of Metropolis reinvent their environment in a far away land? How does word for the future from the past square with the actual future? What then do we learn about our own future Metropolis?

Costume and art ideas include future-retro to future-techno, cyber-tribal to nouveau-formal, Nikola Tesla to Fritz Lang and anything else that captures the essence of Re-envisioning Metropolis.
__________

Art will be curated by Disorient to create an immersive and unified experience. We are especially interested in showcasing larger scale installations and art that will be going to the playa. Send submissions to compressor@disorient.info.

Please volunteer to help make Compressor a reality!
__________

TICKET PRESALES are highly recommended to guarantee admission as all 6 of our parties in 2010 have reached capacity. Tiers 1 & 2 are sold out. Click here to purchase tickets.

We regret to announce that the afterparty has been cancelled by the venue, Cosmic Cavern. We are currently exploring our options, including alternate venues, and will get back to combo ticket buyers soon.

TechGlam, the afterparty hosted by Disorient, will unwind in our familiar clubhouse at Brooklyn Urban Sanctuary in Prospect Heights.

In the stunning big room at Warsaw, Disorient's newest DJ and 2010 playa virgin, François K (Deep Space/Body & Soul/Wave Music), plays sexy organic house with dub flavors. Plus a live video/audio performance by Reality Engine, and support from Narcotic Rhythms (Reda + The Bass from Disorient) and Tim Fielding (Journeys by DJ). In the cantina, funky stuff all night from Douggie Style, Disorient's Friar Tuck, and DJ Flynn (NY Jedi). Also expect a flurry of breathtaking performances and your friendly neighborhood Pornj Patrol -- Disorient's team hosting the party and making sure everyone stays safe and happy. And, of course -- YOU!

Why: Because we love to create magical events for our community: safe spaces for exploration, discovery, creativity, and dance. We're also raising money to spend on art, sound, lights, and power for the playa, so we can surprise and delight the denizens of Black Rock City, and we'd love your help to do it!

GlamTech is a party. GlamTech is Disorient's style. GlamTech is a statement. GlamTech is a state of mind. GlamTech is mirror balls and strobe lights chopped up and remixed in a big poof of playa dust: techno-disco, burner style. Blinky, reflective, silver, lasers: think 80s club dancers facing off against 70s glam rockers at Thunderdome. Big 3D projections and video on dark screens, sexy beats. TICKETS:

Disorient has very few rules, but two require declaration and elaboration:

1. Respect personal boundaries. 2. Take responsibility for your own experience.

The interplay of these two rules forms a social contract that makes our events safe places to explore your own boundaries while encouraging respect for each other. Talk to those around you about anything that makes you uncomfortable.

By attending our events, you agree to follow these rules. Violating these community values could result in your removal from our events.

Disorient presents: CLOUD CITY + GROUND CONTROL: NYC Decom 2008

This year Disorient deviates from the norm to fly off course. We seek to expand our horizons, remove borders, and push boundaries. This year, you will be encouraged to let go…of that which holds you back…and keeps you from getting yourself off the ground.

At Decom 2008 we will provide two worlds; of uncertainty and control – Cloud City and Ground Control.

Cloud City: Disorient Inside
Clouded with uncertainty you risk being yourself, different and brave. Our Dome returns as a soothing den of lull exploration providing coverage for those looking to vanish from analysis. In the illumination of the Dome, we'll shock your senses with a glowing chill space, provide awe-inspiring light sculptures, reflect on our travels through photography, project interpretations of reality, and provide aerial performances over blissful clouds.

Featuring:
Dex Silhouette by Leo Villareal
Shell Shock by Miyong Noh
Pixels of the Playa by Susan Buck
Projections by Guillaume Clave and Irina Sarnetskaya
Aerial Acrobatics by Archer Hutchinson
Lighting by Kamal

Ground Control: Disorient Outside
Noun 1. ground control - a communication system for sending continuous radio messages to an airplane pilot who is making a ground-controlled approach to landing
communication system - a system for communicating
Ground Control will pull you in and let you go, but the controls are ultimately up to you. What draws you in…out? Let go and enjoy the sounds of deep bass, psyche trance, techno and down-tempo grooves.

Featuring:
DJ Balls
DJ Bass
Arrow Chrome
Horus
Lotus

With:

Since I started DJ'ing underground electronic music in 1995, I've spun at a lot of amazing raves, night clubs, house parties, backyard barbeques, outdoor festivals, and sweaty warehouse parties! I thrive on the underground scene, full of people who live for the music and love each other for being who they are. And I plan to keep on rockin' the beats until the day I die =)

BeenJammin'
BeenJammin has been Djing in the NY scene for the past 5 years. He's DJ'd ay many a loft, bar, club, Burning Man Party and Burning Man itself. Been likes to rock a dance floor with the sweet 4 to the Floor sounds of House music.

DJ Balls
Balls has been spinning Psytrance since the beginning of the genre. He currently plays New-Rave and Goa Trance with a touch of Euro, 4/4 Swing 8 groove locked at 135 BPM.

Zev/Wolf (Wolf+Lamb)
After meeting Gadi (lamb) at a party in Williamsburg in 2001, the two became friends and Gadi introduced Zev to minimal techno. As co-conspirators, they began plotting what would one day become Wolf + Lamb. Since finding his musical home, Zev has amassed a collection and musical repertoire that spans the gamut of minimal dance music. From his background in design and web, Zev still produces all the media for Wolf + Lamb, and oversees the technology. His first original co-productions were released on Wolf + Lamb Music in 2006, with more to come.

Sub Swara
Sub Swara is a live electronic crew that represents the best in lo-frequency hi-vibration culture. The Sub Swara Live Set is a balance of practiced musical refinement and on-the-fly improvisation. Weaving percussive phrases in a dynamic call and response style, Dhruva's digitally-effected tabla technique interacts with Sunder's turntablist hi-jinx as Haj lays down a solid foundation of propulsive beats and massive bass. The addition of rising MC star Juakali completes the picture, delivering a potent vocal presence with crucial ragga artistry. From dubstep, dancehall, and jungle, to breakbeat, midtempo, and glitch hop, all mixed with a global sensibility, the Sub Swara sound engages and unites across cultural and musical boundaries. <videoflash type="youtube">dyKlvwlG2iI|480|360</videoflash>
