Brock Suter is a resident Motionsick DJ, as well as a long standing
part of the Motionsick Association and Grafix DJ collective. Brock is
a Master of all that is Ambient, and one of this countries foremost
trainspotters. Brock's style is all encompassing, seamlessly mixed,
and well appreciated here and abroad. A recent trip to the UK had
Brock working with such Jungle legends as Nico and Fierce, while at
home he has released tracks under the alias Two Silver Boxes with
JBondy. With his meticulous mixing, Brock will ease the party into
primordial electronic ooze, out of which will surface everything from
electro to Drum and Bass along with some wicked scratching .

Jungle - 11:30pm until 12:30am.
Max Alert is also a resident Motionsick DJ, as well as a long standing
part of the Motionsick Association and Grafix DJ collective. 7 years of
spinning and writing original music has landed him on stages with the
likes of Fierce, Nico, Meat Beat Manifesto, R.A.W. to mention just a
few. Max plays a unique hybrid of Jungle styles that packs dance
floors whenever he plays. He mixes, cuts, yells at the crowd and gets
the room jumping. MC Vers1 (Greg Manilac) of L.A.'s Junglist Platoon,
rhymes in 10 different languages: Tagalog, French, Chinese,
German, Spanish, English, blah blah... If you haven't heard these two,
they are not to be missed. If you have heard them, we'll see you at
Motionsick.

DJ John Tejada (Palette - LA / 7th City)
12:30pm until 1:30am
Born in Vienna, Austria, John Tejada was introduced to music by his
mother, an acclaimed soprano, and his father, a conductor. John proved
to be apt at playing a number of instruments, and began using
turntables at age eleven. By age sixteen he was well immersed in
making electronic music. After a few years, his unique style of techno
began to appear on several labels such as A13 (UK), Multiplex (Denmark)
and Generations R & S (Belgium) John also has
his own label Palette, and records under the alias "Mr. Hazeltine" for
Plug Research. Tejada has threatened an all new style for the upcoming
season. We can look forward to some of this at Motionsick.

JBondy&Stupid Octave Cat VS Bass Kittens
electrotechno - - 1:30 am until 2:30 am.
Jon Drukman, San Francisco's "Bass Kittens", in an all out assault
against LA's aural barrage artists Jbondy & Stupid Octave Cat. San
Francisco resident Jon Drukman has been making electronic music for
over 10 years. His first commercially available recording, "Trip
Harder" as a member of The Ultraviolet Catastrophe was an underground
hit and recently surfaced on the Chemical Brothers "Brothers Gonna Work
It Out" mix CD. In 1993, he started Bass Kittens, releasing a string
of six critically and commercially successful dance 12"s. Now in 1999,
with the first Bass Kittens CD out, he turns his eye towards drum and
bass. Under the artist name Random, the debut album "Too Stoned To
Sneeze Without Regretting It", out now on Evil Teen Records, proves
that the UK is not the last word in intelligent drum and bass. Jbondy
and Justin Maxwell combine earth-shattering electro rhythms... robotic
melodies... hard-driving psychedelic techno... an amalgamation of
sound like no-other live electronic act. Drawing influences from
mid-80's breakdancing music and the psychedelic sounds of the current
Los Angeles underground music scene... their sonic maelstrom is
infiltrating dance floors across the west-coast. Frenzied crowds to be
expected when this three headed electrotechno monster unleashes inhuman
breakbeats.

Mekanix (Azariah Owens)
throughout
Mekanix, aka Azariah Owens, in collaboration with Kevin (Motionsick
Association) provides a wicked collage of great moments in "sick"
Motion, from Charlie Chaplain to The Drunken Master, from Peter Sellers
to Breakdancing competitions, all edited with Mekanix special effects
and rhythmic flow. Mekanix with a dancing crowd provides the seriously
fun visual components of an evening by Motionsick.

Lightning Lighting - Illumination (Hels)
throughout
Since 1997 Lighting intelligence has flashed through Los Angeles with
reliable frequency. Working regularly with some of LA's most happening
urban events, (Firecracker, Konkrete Jungle, Motionsick etc.), Hel's
has added everything from frenzied to meditative environments. A true
fan of turntablism, Hels can be found creating atmosphere wherever the
more expressive DJ's throw down.
Sound by PFK!
