Hey. I represent a group of DJs who are trying to start up a local scene. We have been to some big parties in Atlanta and we're really sad that we don't have that kind of thing here, and we want to try to encourage it in this area. Anyway, we have been working really hard for a really long time, and we have an event coming your way very soon. It's at the Basement in Durham, the text flier follows:

The Ashtray Cult Production Group Presents Awakenings Halloween Costume Ball Sat. November 3rd, The Basement, Durham, NC

Rain is the definition of unpredictable. His tech trance and breakbeat sets have electrified audiences and dance floors all over the south. Be sure to get there early so as not to miss his funky style and a ton of dance floor surprises. John K, the master of seamless mixing and relentless beats is quickly becoming a NC favorite.
