NYE 2013 @ RISE 

Craig Mitchell & Mike Swells  : :  1 am - 6 am

I couldn't be any happier about this...

Rob and Aaron Fractaltribe have extended a gracious offer to me, and I must accept. Fractaltribe are the real deal, and this party will be another example that makes that very clear. I'll be spinning a late night/early morning, party-closing set from 6:30 - 7:30am.  Dope loft spot with chill heads and proper sound & deco. 

Let's get deep.

It's the ho-ho-holidays... grab your bells, show up, and shake 'em.

In the Granite State, we Dance Free or Die.

Boston Burners are taking over Who's On First for a decompression party, and I've been invited to play from 11:00 - 12:00. It's time to pony up, kick in, and throw down for a righteous cause. Thanks to Nick Binary for keeping me in the fold.

Get all the party info from their rad facebook event.

I'm back in the lounge at RISE, ready to school the new generation of kids who have so ardently embraced our Wonderland party. No, I will not play any dubstep.

SoundScape is back with underground heros Adam Port and &Me!

I will be your opening DJ for the night.  :)

It's been a few years since I celebrated my birthday at RISE, so I figured I'd dive back in.  5 hours gives me plenty of time to paint several pictures.  Deep house to tech-house to progressive & techno will be the flavors du jour.  Can't wait to weave them all together for you.

RISE is truly my home - please come celebrate my 32nd year on this fine planet with me and our friends.

Show up in Costume for your chance to win FREE ADMISSION TO RISE FOR A YEAR!

I'm playing latenight at a supasecret party. redic sound, great people, awesome vibes.  more info to come.  

can't wait for this one.

I am traveling south to Miami to play a latenight set for my Floridian familiy!  Friday night, 2am - 5am.  Sick club, sound, lights... and techno!

Special thanks for Gare Ludena for making this party possible.  Be sure to check his tracks out on Beatport, homey is a beast in the studio!

Julian Prince has been a good friend of mine for many years.  He's been holding it down in Montreal for more than a decade, and is a real player in both the DJ booth and studio.  Simply, he knows how to make you dance.

I will be happily joining Julian at Julep for this Futured party, hosted by Boston's dj/producer/promoter extrodinare, Tamer Malki.

I'm baaaaack!  Happy as heck to be returning to my favorite club to play in the Granite State.

Dance Free or Die!

Saeed Younan is a globally respected dj/producer based in Washington D.C.  He first made a name for himself during the hayday of progressive house as one half of Saeed & Palash.  Their deep & moody tribal choons were canned by legends like John Digweed and Danny Tenaglia.  He's maintained a steady streamof output since then, pushing a sound thats progressed with the times to techier realms while never losing it's percussive edge.  

This guy has made a huge contribution to the wealth of music DJs use to move the dancers of the world.  He's also a beast in the booth himself!  It's my pleasure to warm things up for him at Bijou (which has one of the nicest sound systems in the city I must add).

Marco Bailey is a beast.  He is Belgium's superstar export to the world of global dance music, traveling the world playing the biggest events as well as the small intimate clubs. His mixture of party techno, minimal and electronic house means he is a permanent fixture at all major European festivals and clubs.

Killer releases on Intec Records (Carl Cox), Primate, Zync & Tortured, confirmed his strong reputation as a producer over the last eight years. He has since set up MB Elektronics & MB Selektions to release high quality music and remixes by none other than Adam Beyer, Umek, Ben Sims, Smith & Selway, Claude Young, Christian Varela, and more.  A slight change of both his production and DJ-ing styles has led to recent releases on John Digweed's forward-thinking Bedrock Records.  Marco’s weekly ‘MB Elektronik Force’ radio show is also available worldwide as a podcast via iTunes.

It's an honor to welcome Marco back to RISE and to set the stage for him to work his magic!

Make It New is a techno institution.  8 years running, this party is responsible for bring names like Sian, The Wighonmy Brothers, Modeselektor, and Ripperton to Cambridge.  They have a killer sound system, dancing feet, and smiles galore.  

There's a reason this is my favorite weekly in Boston; thank you, Basstown, for asking me back.  Lets do this!

I'm headed back to Portsmout, NH, for my monthly residency at The Red Door.  Deep, sexy, groovy, luscious... but maybe also upbeat, pumping, arrogant, and loud.  We'll see.  ;)

Dance Free or Die!!!

AcousticaElectronica is an ultimate dance party on the fringe of two worlds | an addictive music, art, and dance immersion. I'll be playing the opening set, setting the vibe and building anticipation as the room fills up.

This party is going down at club Oberon! Dope spot, real talk. This is going to be a fun one.

Tickets on Sale: http://www.cluboberon.com/events/acoustica-electronica

Christian Martin is coming back to Boston, and I will be providing opening duties.  

Naga is a great room.  Come dance with us.  

After-party @ RISE with Bass Kleph!

For the third consecutive year, the Sonic Beating crew has graciously invited me to spin a set at their Figment Boston sound camp.  They're great DJs, they own awesome speakers, and they know how to make the whole combination sound amazing.  Bring a blanket, kids, toys, whatever.  It will be a chill and interactive environment - just hope for great weather!

It's the fourth annual Summer Wave Harbor Cruise!  Debauch on the open seas... what more could you ax for?

I'm truly honored to be holding court beside such esteemed guests this year.  I've got a good feeling about this one.  :)

Get your tix early, save cash, reduce stress, elimate regret.

Boat boards at 7pm, sails from 8pm - 12am.

DJ PawzUp is throwing a party, and you'll be there if you know what's good for you.  It's going to have everything - DJs, bear burlesque, snarky straights, germfs... (extra credit if you get the reference.)

But seriously... Pawz Up is a consumate musician, and this party marks his debut as a DJ/producer.  It's my honor to be sharing the spotlight with him.  All signs are pointing toward sloppy, debauch, dance party.  Count me in.

Well this should be cool!  I've been invited to play at this year's Identity Festival.  Headliners include heavy hitters like Eric Prydz, Wolfgang Gartner, Excision, and many more.

I'll be working the crowd into a frienzy at the Forrest Stage at 9pm.

No sleepy time chilled Swells on this night.  Just unforgiving, heavy-hitting house and tech.  Gigitty.

I'm back to my home in the granite state.  9pm - 1am.  Proper beats on a rediculous sound system.

Dance free or die.

Stoked to be making my Camp Bisco debut this year!  I'll be playing in the VIP tent along side my brah Wyllys after The Disco Biscuits finish their headlining set on Saturday night.  You can also find me spinning several sets at the Disco Dump RV Dance Tent Extravaganza!

Check out the line-up.  Pretty crazy.  

I'm back in the lounge @ Wonderland, dropping knowledge on the insanely thriving party that is Wonderland - Friday's @ RISE from 9pm - 1am.

It's my distinct pleasure to play deeper cuts for the crowd of young, open-minded ravers, freaks, and fairies.  They can push all they want upstairs... tonight, it's all about the pull.

House & techno.  Free party.  Banging sound.  No Avicii.

I'm playing Saturday evening, 6pm - 7pm, on the Pool Stage. Hells yes.

Camp Coldbrook Music and Arts Festival is proud to host the first summer celebration of the new season. Over 90 musical acts and handfuls of creative workshops are waiting to be explored by the curious. Bring your friends and family to Coldbrook Campground, June 22-24, 2012 for a weekend getaway filled with activities and excitement. The land offers two outdoor swimming pools, one of which is olympic size, the other of which is a 100 ft. diameter wading pool. There is a 9-hole par 3 golf course on the land, Woodside Tavern, Poolside Cabana, catch and release fishing hole, bocce court, and much more.

The gathering of friends and sharing of knowledge is crucial to the growth and evolution of the human race. As products of this earth, we should be conscious of how our actions influence the world around us. By sharing with each other we are strengthening friendships, knowledge and love for our community. That very love keeps families together, sparks innovation, and is the fuel that channels energy towards harmony.

This is a “leave no trace” gathering, where the beauty of nature and the practice of technology fuse together to create limitless possibilities.

I'm back where it all started... 5 hour set in the lounge for the boys.  With the new booth renovations, life couldn't be better.  Let's ring in right the last-ever PRIDE @ RISE!

I'm back in the cradle at Portsmouth's music womb.  Dance free or die!

It is my distinct pleasure to welcome Dubfire to RISE.  We've been working on this booking for some time now, and the stars aligned to make it possible during the Together Festival!

Dubfire is a true luminary.  From his early years as half of Deep Dish to his current world-wide tour as one of techno's truly elite, this man has made a career of being in high demand.  His sound is deep, dark, percussive, techny, hypnotic, and outright futuristic.  It's a perfect match for a Saturday night @ RISE.

I will be setting the stage for Dubfire, playing from 1:00 - 3:00am.  

Admission is guaranteed only for RISE members.  All others will have to wait in line, with admission subject to capacity.  For a limited time, anyone who buys a RISE Second House membership will receive a FREE TICKET to the show.  For more information on RISE membership, email me or check out our website here.

MY HOUSE IS YOUR HOUSE - WMC 2012

In conjunction with Bora Bora Ibiza, Basswalk and Pro1music bring you an international line up of underground house music with special 3-D visuals - pushing the boundaries of music and performance.

For the last decade of my life, I've spent a week in March in Miami with friends, peers, and inspirations alike.  2012 promises to continue in this hallowed tradition with some exciting gigs planned as both a DJ and dancer.

On Saturday night, we're taking over Espanola way.  Uncompromising house music, quality punchy sound, and good vibes. I'm really looking forward to playing along side homeboys Mike, Dres, and Sammy!

FREE for all WMC olders.  No badge?  No worries.  Hit me up for reduced list.

Thursday night during WMC I will be DJing at a swank little spot way down the beach on 1st.  The joint is Jeronimos, and the spot is going to be hopping.  We're right around the corner from the legendary Nikki Beach, so the overflow will keep our party ripe all night!

This party will be streaming love on Sonika.FM.  Tune in!

It's been some time since I've headlined in the mainroom.  Time to change that.  I've got some serious latenight headiness for you all... tech-house to techno, with a little bit of melody sprinkled on top.,

I've enlisted Berklee-almost-grad Balian for opening duties.  This guys has really impressed me with his studio work, and as a DJ he's no slacker either.  He'll set the stage perfectly for all you late-night marauders.

Giddy up!
