Sesame Street breaks it down from Wonderful Creative on Vimeo.
Hello all,
Hope everyone is having a fantastic summer! I know I have been having waaaayyy tooo much fun. Actually all of my friends are having a lot of fun but we could all use some more, right? Its the summer. Get out, dance it out, hang with good friends, bask in the sun, chill on bodies of water, and eat all the tubular meat your hearts desire….err grilled veggies for some.
WaveGeneration has evolved after Rich suggested a new name. The Super Fun Network. As good friends, we all have lots of fun with each other. Why not share the love?! We’ve gone to Chicago with each other, went to DEMF as a group, and regularly catch up. We might even have a few drunk stories about each other (those are some good FUN memories). I’d say that the Super Fun Network has a lot of Super (duper) Fun times so why not join us as we party? Grant even came up with a new super logo…
Be sure to check back here, or my facebook page to find upcoming events. One of our future events has been announced:
Derek Fox
Saturday October 17th
Upstairs Lounge
10pm-3amJoin us for a rare chance to see Derek Fox. Super Fun Network is proud to bring him to St. Louis.
Originally hailing from Detroit, currently based in Chicago, Derek has been experimenting with sound through Djing and production for over a decade. His combination of funk and tech creates an intoxicating environment. Although Derek tends to have an emphasis on the deeper side of beats, he is also known for slammin’ tech house jams. His sets are always diverse, maintaining a dynamic on the dancefloor . His track selection spans from techno to house and everything in between. In addition, Derek uses midi controllers and a wide range of effects to dissect tracks and manipulate intensity. His countless personal edits ensure that you will hear some tracks as you never have before. Derek’s artistic motivations accompanied by meticulous scientific application enable him to maneuver fluently through the sound-scape.
Derek has shared the bill with world renowned artists such as Brian Kage, Luke Hess, Derek Plaslaiko, Eric Cloutier, Daniel Bell, Seth Troxler, Audion (Matthew Dear), Fairmont, Carl Craig, Josh Wink, Alex Under, Richie Hawtin, Marco Carola and John Acquaviva. He has entertained many venues in both Detroit and Chicago.

Special Guest ARI FRANK
Although born in Chicago, Ari was raised in Southern France and was heavily influenced by French House music throughout his teenage years. As he grew up and returned to Chicago, his two homes became important sources for his musical tastes: both classic and innovative, both sexy and nuanced. Currently, Ari mixes Minimal Tech-House and Funky Deep-House. His DJ sets are driving but warm, creating an atmosphere that is both intense and flirtatious. Ari has performed alongside international talent such as DJ Koze, Art Department, Catz n Dogz, Delano Smith, Lee Foss, Tanner Ross, Maceo Plex, and more. His current influences revolve around labels such as Perlon, Suol, Moon Harbour, Oslo, and Crosstown Records.

Butane-Alphahouse//Little Helpers//Crosstown Rebels//Berlin
How busy can one man be? Let Butane tell you. He’s running 2 successful record labels, producing EP’s, albums and remixes for some of the most respected labels in the business, and touring extensively across the most renowned clubs in Europe, America, Asia and beyond… all without breaking a sweat.
A firm believer that the long hours of studio work keeps a musician grounded, he’s produced 14 EP’s, two albums, and countless remixes to date, on highly respected labels like Crosstown Rebels, Dumb Unit, Foundsound, Alphahouse, Rrygular, Mo’s Ferry, and Hallucination Limited. Licensing original tracks to mix compilations such as Matthew Dear’s Fabric mix, Luciano’s HiFi SciFi on Soma and Damian Lazarus’ Get Lost mix shows that his peers in the industry hold his music in high regard.
He is also the sole creative mind behind Alphahouse Records, one of North America’s premier underground electronic music labels. His latest label project, recently embarked upon with his long-time friend Sean O’Neal (Someone Else), “Little Helpers”, is already making waves and popping up in playlists all over clubland.
As a DJ, Butane uses vinyl, Traktor Scratch, samplers, effects and whatever other new tools are available to craft his sets. Plenty of experience as a headline performer as well as an after-hour favourite enables him to play with an incredible range, and his remarkable sensitivity to the energy of the crowd is the rare trait of a seasoned and perceptive musician. His skilfully developed sets are both classy and elegant, but surely never predictable; thanks to his huge collection of new and old tracks alike, expect anything from seamlessly blended groovy, sexy, peak-time techno to warm, deep, heady house music.
Butane certainly makes a strong case for himself as one of the true talents in today’s music scene. How many hats can one man wear? Or maybe the real question is: Are there any hats left unworn?

I will forever love mxpx. This will always be my song.
ahhh fun in the sun!
I don’t often have birthday celebrations. In fact, the last birthday celebration that I had was when I was 6 years old (had to look it up).
BUT THATS OKAY!
I’m going to make it all up at the Badassness Party. Haus and I are celebrating OUR birthdays at Upstairs Lounge. If you don’t know Butane, thats OKAY. Representing Crosstown Rebels, AlphaHouse, and Little Helpers, Butane is an international artist and has worked with the best in the industry.
I’ve witnessed his great attributes to the industry and this is not an event to miss in St. Louis.

Badassness Residents
Curt Becker & Narcosis
There is a lot of music out there… a lot of bad music and few good.
Starting today, I will be posting up a new “Feature” set of Techno/House/Tech House that I can’t seem to get enough of.
This week I am featuring Audiofly at Verboten in New York. Setting the mood, the dou starts off with Take Your Hat Off (Shaun Reeves & Tale Of Us Remix) by Jay Haz and moves through notable deep house and tech house artists such as Christian Burkhardt, No Regular Play, and Satori.
Audiofly are the duo of Luca Saporito and Anthony Middleton. They met and started working together in the spring of 2002 and immediately started a prolific partnership based on their shared music styles and experiences on the DJ circuit.
Their combined talents have created a powerful, experimental and original style of music (a deadly, dirty, jackin, tech meets electronic house) which is very current on the underground club scene.
