Wed, May 14, 2008 - 6:03 PMIt's that time of year again, time one more to head up to our favorite mountain top & dance well past dawn. This year's lineup features a lot of familiar faces, but a few special guests will be joining us as always, to bring that wonderful mix of sounds that Straylight parties are known for.

And now the full story of the line up :
Starting at around 8pm & going until 9pm, SEVENTH SWAMI, from Sacramento will be starting things
off with a chilled out Decks & Effects set. SEVENTH SWAMI represnts the
Ambient Mafia, Escape Artists & WantIt crews. A taste of his music can be
found at : www.ambientmafia.com
At 9pm will be Straylight DJ : BEETJUNKEY from Monterey. Some of you may know him as Kyle the mad
accountant, but there's soo much more to this man. He's been hard at work
in the studio tuning up his mixing skills & you can get a sample of what he
he's been working on at this link : www.myspace.com/mierdadechongo
Then at 10pm will be the triumphant return of our good freind ARWIN after a couple years off ARWIN is back & representing the Iriendao & Ataraxia crews. More about his music can be found by seaching for him at : radio.virtualdj.com/home/
At 11pm DJ FUNKTION ILL from San Francisco representing I'll'n'Naughty
Records, will be taking over with some Nasty Funky Electro. A taste of

Then at Midnight : DJ DICE, a recent transplant to San Francisco will be taking
over the decks with some of his Heavy Funky Breaks. DJ DICE's latest mix :

At 1:15am one of California's favorite DJs, San Jose's MICHAEL LIU from the Sunkissed
Family & Stilldream & Till Dawn Productions crews, will be taking over with
his oh so unique taste in Trance. It's not like he needs any introduction,
but here's a link to find out more about him & what he's up to
these days : www.myspace.com/sneekyninja
Then at 2:30am will be the return of Straylight's own Globe Trotting
Superstar DJ & Producer MUBALI. Fresh from his most recent travels,
he's got some incredibly sick new beats to drop on us!!! You can keep up
with his latest adventures & tunes at : mubali.usa.gs/
At 3:45am we have a very special guest DJ performing for us, he's such a big name
that we can't put his name on the lineup for fear of overloading our spot.
But suffice to say that he's known everywhere on earth.
Then at 5am will be the return of our own DJ PARADIGM, now living in Kansas City
One of the Straylight founders, and now a resident of the midwest. As well as one
of the founders of the Xience crew. His latest mix can be found at :
www.thehothouse.net/straylig...index.htm
At 6:15 will be MACHI from Millwaukee, representing the Xience crew. The leading
progressive DJ in the upper midwest, MACHI's fluid style and smooth mixing is quickly
winning him acclaim acrosss the country.
At 7:30 will be SATURNIA from San Francisco representing the CUT Label Group & the
Phoenix Family will be gracing us with one of her special morning time Psytrance sets.
More about SATUNIA can be found at : www.noctilucent.net/
At 9am will be OPEN DECKS!!!! Featuring the best of who's still
standing to keep us going till the generator runs out of gas, or we do,
whichever happens first...
Now some things to remember :
Camping is highly encouraged. It's great to get out there before sunset, as
the view is one of the best I've ever seen.
But NO FIRES, as the area that this will be happening at is full of lots of
dry grass that would burn very fast.
Also this is a LEAVE NO TRACE event, so please don't let any garbage hit the
ground, we will have trash bags around. Also if you see anyone drop
something ,please ask them to pick it up. Leaving a trashed party site is
the kind of thing that makes it hard to find more party spots.
Now a bit about the road, it's a very windey road all the way down the
coast, then up the mountain, it's a one lane paved road, once at the top of
the mountain the last 4 miles are on a graded dirt road, but most cars can
make it down there just fine, unless your car is lowered you should be fine.
Detailed directions will be posted at the website & tribe, the day of the
event. But if you've been to one of our parties, you know where your going.
RIP: Albert Hoffman
PLUR, yeah I said it!!!!
