In a world where electronic music is made by laptop computers and cracked software, there's still a craftsman making music the old fashioned way - with real synths, samplers, effects and a hardware mixer. These are the thick analog sounds that you love, and the deep bass that will shake the room.
From playing at large outdoor festivals in Europe and Asia, to intimate shows in sweaty basements on the east coast, to west coast clubs and massives, skylab2000 has long been a part of the LIVE electronic music revolution.
Reviews? Time Out magazine says: "skylab2000 is a rave legend." Urb Magazine decribes skylab2000 live performances as "incredible" and "fantastic"." Dave Dresden [Gabriel & Dresden] calls the Rollergirl single "the bomb of all bombs." In the UK, Pete Tong of BBC Radio One chose the Auburn single as an "Essential Selection".
DJs such as Sasha, John Digweed, Carl Cox, Pete Tong, Taylor, John Kelly, and Keoki have championed skylab20000 tracks on great labels like Moonshine, Koch, Journeys by DJ, Phatt Phunk, 3am Records, Brainiak, City of Angels, Genesis Project, Metronix, Starblocks, and Starshagger.
skylab2000 does remixes include high profile artists such as Crystal Method's Trixie Reiss, multiple grammy award winner Ford, and world reknowned DJ Paul Oakenfold.
Movies, television shows and major video game soundtracks also have the skylab2000 touch. Microsoft's "Amped" and Konami's massive "Dance Dance Revolution" have skylab2000 tracks in the games, with more to come.
Most of all, skylab2000 has traveled internationally playing LIVE for some of the best audiences in the world - in places as far away as Russia, Japan, Istanbul, Hong Kong, Montreal, Puerto Rico, Vancouver, and Mexico. In the USA, skylab2000 has played LIVE at hundreds of events in cities such as Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, Austin, Denver, Miami, Memphis, Nashville, Detroit, Las Vegas, Alaska, Seattle and many more!
On stage, it's hardware synths, samplers, mixers, and effects. No 'laptop band' here! The music is played LIVE, changing to the crowds needs and creating a ride to remember. The current skylab2000 sound is a blend of techno, electro, hard house, nu skool breaks, acid, trance, and a sprinkle of drum n bass.
