DESCRIPTION:
For this years [bas_mrkt] 3 year anniversary we are happy to have SIAN originally from Ireland now living in Barcelona as our special guest brought to you thanks to Lanai, Electric Avenue ATX, Resident Advisor & Octopus Recordings.

Octopus Recordings is Beatpor'ts 5th largest ranked techno label in the world and SIAN as the labels owner is finding himself somewhere between China, South Africa or here in the States every weekend. This event is free and will run from 7pm till 2am with supporting local EAATX dj's Christian Barbuto & Chris Nelson

The Dublin-born, Barcelona-based DJ (and Octopus Recordings boss) will stick mostly to the eastern half of the country on this tour, bringing his sleek tech-house to Washington DC club Flash first, next Friday. That weekend also has gigs in Boston and Austin (this one marking the three-year anniversary of local series [bas_mrkt]). A couple festival appearances will follow for Sian—he'll go back-to-back with Stefano Noferini at Electric Zoo in New York on Friday the 29th, and then play a set at Sun City Music Festival in El Paso the next day—along with a boat party in Buffalo called Capsized! One more three-gig weekend will follow in early September, with Chicago, Detroit and, finally, the tour closer in Denver, where Christian Martin is also confirmed.

Christian is a committed ambassador to the house and intelligent techno scene of Austin Tx. and one of the hardest working DJ's in the city. It was in the late 90's house music era of San Francisco Christian found inspiration having spent countless hours in front of and behind the decks of DJ Dan, Charles Feelgood, Mark Farina, Jeno, Doc Martin, and members of the Wicked crew. Now a creator and purveyor of his own unique sound, a masterful cocktail of intellectual techno and groovy techno, Christian has set his sights most recently upon building the scene in his home city of Austin, Texas, a rapidly growing and evolving community of electronic music, by way of the establishment of www.electricavenueatx.com, a city event and information resource dedicated to the proliferation of this music. Never before has any American city seen such a blistering onset of passion for techno, minimal, house, tech house, and many related subgenres. As a result of hard work, Christian has been at the forefront of Austin's underground entertainment, splitting time in the dj booth with artists Josh Wink, Laura Jones, Drumcell, Umek (Ljubljana), Tim Green, Konrad Black (Berlin), Mark Knight (Toolroom, UK), Pezzner (Freerange, Om, Seattle), Dj Dan, DJ Heather, JT Donaldson (Om, SF), M.In (Frankfurt), Alland Byallo (Berlin/San Francisco) and Dustin Zahn, at major proprietary parties such as Kingdom Nightclub, Bas_Mrkt, The Dark Side, Abstrakt, and Werk It, as well as large-scale events like SXSW, Nocturnal, and AUM.Fest. His vision of cultivating and growing a thriving dance music scene has become a reality.
