The notorious Bay Area crew behind MOCHIPET’S infamous underground PETNATION parties are Back from the Dead and at it again.. and this time, we’re taking you with us San Francisco!

We may have been rocked out of our secret warehouse space last year, but this year we’re back and legit as ever at PUBLIC WORKS SF and we figure what better night to come back to life, than the eve of Halloween?

We’ve rallied up the Daly City Records BASS family and are gearing up for one insane night of beats and glitched out ghouls like nothing you’ve ever seen before!

MARK INSTINCT
We’re bringing out Canada’s heaviest hitter in the bass game for this one, and he’s ready to cause some serious HEAT San Francisco! A longtime veteran of EXCISION’s Rottun Recordings, and currently part of the Subhuman crew, this man is by far a force to be reckoned with. With his fierce, penetrating beats and filthy basslines, it’s no wonder MARK INSTINCT has everyone craving more on the dancefloor… from Australia all the way to the US. Get ready Bay Area, it’s about to get deliciously GRIMEY!

MARK INSTINCT (Rottun Recordings | Canada)

A purveyor of fierce, penetrating beats and filthy basslines, Mark Instinct is one bad muthafucka – literally. With roots in metal, hip hop, punk and drum and bass there is no sound off limits for this young producer from Calgary who’s firmly secured himself amongst some of dubstep and drum and bass’s elite. Known for his explosive stage performance and his suave nature behind the decks, you can be sure that Mark Instinct will have your dancefloor poppin. With 2011 appearances at Starscape and Shambhala, and a Australian/US Tour already under his belt, you can be sure Mark Instinct has carved a solid name in the bass game.

This past year Mark’s first EP, Get Loud, was dropped on Rottun Records and featured 5 weighty tracks that have all gotten major playback with everyone from Excision to Bare rinsing them. Currently working on EP releases for both Rottun Recordings and Subhuman Recordings, you can be sure that Mark’s next release will be showing up on Beatport’s Top 100 chart, where he’s had numerous other releases land. In addition to his upcoming releases watch for forthcoming collaborations featuring the likes of Armani Reign, Messinian and Death by Stereo’s Efrem Shulz.

DCARLS (Simplify|Baltimore)
DCarls is coming with the HEAT from Baltimore, Maryland. This talented Glitch and Dubstep producer has his second EP release on Simplifly Recordings title “Flavorhythm 2″. DCarls does not hold back on ”The Heat” in this roller coaster tune with the twists, turns, and screwing bass drops in this a hand crafted masterpiece.

There is no question as to why his tracks are flying up Beatport’s charts. Able to muscle basslines around with the best of them, his compositional and theoretical background in piano and guitar make this stuff look easy, but the intricacy and precision are unbelievable. With an infectious, heavy metal riff and pulsing drums that break down into drum & bass with great regularity, “Splash” is about as subtle as a sledgehammer.
There is no question, not a shred of doubt that this kid is a superstar waiting to break out… and we can’t wait to say “we told you so.”

Hey Pets!
We are looking for groovy ghoulie artists to submit art for a one night show at the Dia de Los Dead Pets party on Sunday , October 30th at Public Works Gallery in San Francisco. We will build up an altar around our DJ’s that will be dedicated to our lost loved ones. Visitors will be invited to bring offerings to the altar and dance the night away with them in the DEAD PET CEMETERY GALLERY, which will be a sacred place full of your art ! We will show our respect for the animals of our past- be they our pets, extinct or endangered. The party is hosted by Mochipet and friends / Daly City Records.

Venue Info.:

This a unique venue in the Mission that values both art and music equally. This makes them AWESOME to work with.

If you have a spooky or darkly reflective piece – please submit! …and we have lots of cool nooks and crannies to full up.

While many DJs can say they’ve performed alongside dance music icons such as Rusko, Bassnectar, and Mary Anne Hobbs, few can honestly claim that they’ve worn a purple furry dinosaur suit the entire time. Bay Area native Mochipet , who began his career with his well-known album, Girls Love Breakcore, has demonstrated his passion for music through residences in L.A., his founding of Daly City Records, and his collaboration with a 20-piece orchestra that performed his composition “Dessert Search for Techno Baklava” at Carnegie Hall, among other notable venues. He chatted with All Shook Down about breakcore, his favorite mochi flavor, and playing LovEvolution this Saturday.

As we move closer to the year 2012, people in our nation and around the world are fighting for a new vision for the future. A vision of social equity, sustainability, spiritual connection and the awareness of our shared humanity. We are a blend of cultures, colors, shapes and sounds. We are all one. One frequency, one beat, a collective of individuals who have witnessed the struggles of our generation and the ones before us and are planting new seeds that will grow into strong roots. With these roots the flower that is social change will continue to blossom for our community. We are one family, one tribe, doing more together now than we could ever do alone.

Citrine Management Group LLC will host the 1st Annual Dub Fillmore Festival, a music, arts and cultural event in the heart of San Francisco’s Fillmore District in an effort to maintain the vibrancy of the neighborhood and pay homage to the growing dub community throughout the city.

This event is all ages, open to the public at no charge, there will be two stages featuring djs, live performances and over 50 local vendors who will be displaying art and goods during the festival.
