I took some photos (wish I could have had a better photographer, but lots of people were out of town for the holidays).

THRILLS & OCNotes, Easter Egg, DJs Furpurse, Tre Slim, and Dome:

THRILLS feat OCNotes (Seattle)



Thrills is an electro producer and remix artist from Seattle who got his start in electronic music at 16 as a house DJ at raves and underground parties. Now he writes his own music and remixes choice tracks of others. His work combines elements of hip hop, house, electro, and bassline into energetic dance music sure to get the dancefloor bouncing.

Thrills will be accompanied by OCNotes, his musical partner and 1/2 of his newly formed band, Panda Robot. OCNotes did vocals on the "Make Some Noise" remix of Miscellaneous Chocolate (which they'll do live). In celebration of their premier Portland performance, they'll be performing a special set for the event with a whole bunch of new dubs and remixes special for the show.
Sure to be wild!
