Although she calls Los Angeles home, she’s played a handful of shows around Portland and Seattle. It’s not every day that you’d see an artist with releases on house label IN/ROTATION also pull a slot at the dubstep-heaven festival Lost Lands.īeyond Wonderland at the Gorge won’t be her first time in the Pacific Northwest. As a classically-trained graduate of the ICON Collective school in LA, she’s got serious chops to back her upbringing. Taylor Chung, better known as Wenzday, fuses house and bass together masterfully. Although they primarily produce house, you can definitely hear a wide array of subgenres throughout their mixes and discography. With both impressive resumes, the Truth x Lies project has taken off in the last couple of years. Howard earned a master’s degree in classical music, and pivoted to dance music after an injury forced him to take time away from playing trumpet. Bertles grew up surrounded by music with parents as full-time musicians, before discovering his passion for EDM which lead him to the ICON Collective school in LA. Both have an extensive background in music, although it wasn’t always electronic music. Currently her SoundCloud is made up of a handful of hour-long mixes which could give you plenty idea what to expect.ĭuo Ian Bertles and Ryan Howard, better known as Truth x Lies, first blew up when they won the Insomniac Discovery Project competition in 2017. With a show on local Seattle radio station C89.5, she’s got her roots firmly planted into the Pacific Northwest and we couldn’t be more excited to learn more about her. If you’re looking for some new techno to sink your teeth into, look no further than Rachel Tollefson. But it will be his first time performing solo in contrast to his 2019 Paradiso B2B with Dateless. He’s performed at the large festival circuits and this won’t be his first time at the Gorge, either. As he credits his inspirations, he also pushes himself to develop a style that feels refreshing. He’s got a nuanced style that sets him apart from the rest. Well-respected by some of the biggest house names in the game like Claude VonStoke, Shiba San, Tchami and more, Lucati is another set to keep an ear out for. Part of that process: returning to the Northwest for a debut set at the Gorge. Now that events and festivals are back, it’s time for John Summit to reach the heights he’s been waiting for since exploding onto the scene last year. The Chicago-based producer/DJ had a song, Deep End, gain support from the likes of Pete Tong, Annie Mac, and more, while dominating the Beatport charts throughout the summer. While 2020 was a tough year for everyone, some artists like John Summit managed to make the most of it. If you have a friend in your group at Beyond Wonderland who is still on the fence of EDM but likes the hottest hits (or if you do), take them to see James Hype.
From there, he’s played some shows at some of the biggest club scenes in Ibiza, Las Vegas, and more. Originally from England, Hype hit the pavement running with some of his R&B and rap remixes like Hotline Bling.
If there’s a house music DJ who’s been taking the world by storm, it just might be James Hype. If you haven’t had a chance to catch Green Velvet yet, don’t miss your chance at Beyond Wonderland at the Gorge. He’s released dozens of albums and EPs as both Green Velvet and his original moniker Cajmere, showcasing an ability to not only adjust with the times, but to create new trends as well.
Releasing his debut EP 30 years ago, the artist also known as Curtis Alan Jones is intertwined with the history of techno and house music. Referring to artists as “Legends” probably happens more often than it should, but it’s more than apt when referring to Chicago’s Green Velvet. Together, they released Freakin‘ on Tchami’s Confessions label, which Dombresky further went on to release a host of singles and remixes. Since then, he’s found his way in with Tchami, a fellow Frenchman. He’s been producing music for over a decade now, finding his way into the mainstream level after an official remix of A-Trak’s We All Fall Down in 2015. Hailing from France, house artist Dombresky is also coming to the Gorge. He’s also got a label, too, at Do Not Duplicate Recordings. You also might have recognized him from Boo! at the Wa-Mu Theater in Seattle last October. Bijou has kept busy for the last two years, releasing new music this year, following his 15-track album Diamond City, which came out in July of 2020.
