about me
Edison Diaz aka Edison Elektrik is a long time DJ, sound collage artist, live performer, and promoter, originally from the Philippine Islands. Works as a social worker during the day... rocks da bell at night! Hehe! Based in Los Angeles, Edison champions the deeper and maximal sound of experimental electro-tech. Edison's taste in music (infused by Techno, Electro, & IDM) can be described in three words... moody, unique, and twisted! Edison is one of the founders of militantsexcouncil, a diverse collective of artists, electronic musicians, and DJs that embraces the art and music of the underground culture. Edison is also responsible for such reputable events as Shocker in Hollywood and Knobturnal in Chinatown. As a performer, he played with some of electronic music's most influencial artists such as John Tejada, Solvent, Modeselektor, Daniel Bell, Derrick May, Kenny Larkin, Maetrik, Kero, Derrick Michael, Drumcell... just to name a few. Tapping into your imagination... erasing boundaries and following no rules, avoiding any type of formula... Edison knows how to play with your sanity. This 2007 will surely be a positive outcome for Edison... forming a digital record label called Stem Synthetics with his two friends Luis Rosario and Vinnie "Madhuban" Torango. Edison released an album Entitled "The Brand New Me LP" . Check out his album at www.beatsdigital.com Visit him at myspace.com/edisonelektrik

My Events

Saturday night with RD, Edison Elektrik, The Wandering Marionettes, and more... NOV. 10TH (events » nightlife) Saturday, November 10, 2007 - 9:00 PM 49 RSVPs ...they crept through the twisting alleyways like a fog. As the moon
waned and the night grew dark, the city's dreams grew darker. It was
this thick eerie midst that drew them. It gave these shadows their
substance. Lost Toys coming to frolick. Broken Dolls coming to play.
Wandering Marionettes coming to dance. It was a menagerie of the
imagined, a phantom ball, a wicked carnival on the otherside...

on November 10th
in the depths of Los(t)Angeles
The Wandering Marionettes
welcome you to
Rêve d'Obscurité

An evening of shadowy beats, macabre dance, and dark splendour.

specific formula or sub-genre, Edison made sure he designed his
album so that everyone can hear the many influences he had absorbed
listening to various forms of electronic music. So take a listen and
enjoy this moody, funky, deep, quirky, and complex journey... it
