HAPPYFEAT
.. (a.k.a. Colin Barber) Stumbling upon Victoria's underground rave scene at 19, HappyFeat found himself inspired by local heroes Bonefish and DJ Carson. Barely a year later, he has now shared the stage many times with some of the Island's best DJs, and has amassed a large following of smart and attractive people with his Spontaneous, Genre-Smashing Sets chock full of personal edits and bootlegs and a Notoriously Energetic Stage Presence. From Filthy Electro and Breaks, to Euphoric Progressive and Techno, to Funky Nu Disco and Dubstep, HappyFeat will keep you smiling and moving on the dancefloor. But that's not all! HappyFeat also releases a free, full length mixtape every month on his Facebook group at http://www.happyfeat.tk; as well as mixes from other local DJs every week so you can be entertained wherever you go. Come and see why HappyFeat has won over the hearts of ravers and clubbers alike! WOAH, GRENADE!..... In this corner, weighing in at 128bpm, we have 'y@' - Producer, Remixer and Disc Jockey (In the abstract 'Ableton-Era' sort of sense AND the CD's and mixer sense)
in the other corner, bringing to the table 132bpm, we have 'Charles King' this pro-tools certified god is truly a multi-talent. Formerly of the rock group Maurice he made the switch into the electronic end of music seamlessly, quickly and thoroughly. Together they form 'WHOA, GRENADE!' and already within one studio session their debut original demo has been put out, and they have no plans of stopping there! People are quickly seeing that when they enter a room they better duck for cover, because 'WHOA, GRENADE!' is explosive. They are like a musical Swiss-Army knife, not afraid to fly between Breaks, any genre of House music Electro, Fidget, Deep, Disco, Funky, Minimal, and any other genre they might need to throw down. From their cutting edge live set up and performances which use several MIDI controllers plugged into up to two instances of Ableton Live to their pathetic love affair with the studio and the priceless caffeinated late night memories the studio entails, something will surely come of their romance to please everyone. All that can really be said at this point is Watch the f@#k out! And really, its true... Watch the f@#k out!
