The Z-Dar - Camp Bisco 11: Crystal Castles

Wow, Where to even start? Z here people and I'm just coming back from Camp Bisco 11 with my dudes Wish[Paus3], who you all know and love, Steve from Triple Threat Productions and Mr. Fitz. Needless to say it was an amazing experience, with great vibes all around with great people at literally every corner. It was hot as all hell which didn't help me one bit but with all the free water (boss as hell, thank you MCP) it wasn't too bad. You could almost taste all the good energy flowing around the place, not to mention tasting all the dust [lol].

Anyway I'm here to talk about Crystal Castles set that went on Friday afternoon. The electronic duo Crystal Castles, comprised of Ethan Kath on synth and fronted by none other than the dark haired (now blue apparently) witch house looking hottie Alice Glass, threw on an amazing set that blew people away. While pounding bottles of what looked like Jack Daniels, Alice proceeded to get the crowd going during their set by jumping off stage almost seducing the audience and literally crowd walking across hands. There was even one lucky kid who snuck on stage to sing during a remix of Crimewave. 

All in all, it was an impressive bass intensive set showing off their newer stylings with alot of remixes and new songs I expect to be on any new releases once they get announced, but hey who knows whats in store for them. Thursday was a perfect indication of all the goodness in store for the rest of the weekend. Expect great things in the future and more news from Bisco 11 to come! 

Peace and Love guys,

One More Week Till Camp Bisco 11

In just one week is the beginning for us at Camp Bisco. I got the final word in on the press passes, and I am so happy to be bringing along a buddy and excellent videographer, Steve from Triple Threat Productions. We are going to be bringing you HD video, photos, and live up-to-the-minute updates FROM the campgrounds at Bisco... and guess what, we've started now! Everyone, meet Steve:

Steve has a little more experience than I do on the festival scene, but I have a feeling this is going to be brand new territory for me. I'm going to be releasing my own Vlogs as well, so keep on the lookout for those! We can't wait to be there!

New Jersey Rave Broken Down by Police

Firstly, I apologize for the title, I want this article to be found and caught in SEO.

Now onto the interest: New Jersey has been coming up on their parties and events. Little by little, Jerseynites don't have to travel all the way into NYC to enjoy the scene. Early in the week, there was a small event (comparatively to what we are used to) held in Hopatcong. From what I've heard, the party was popping and a really good time.

Then the cops showed up. Did arrest anyone at first, claiming they were there for a noise complaint. They continued to hold everyone there, taking everyone's info, and onto finding illicit drugs on a few kids after searching a bunch of them. Now, Jersey laws are changing. People are upset about this happening and a lot of different commentary and controversy is coming out on the topic.

Make of it what you will. Ready the two local news articles written on the party:
Hopatcong, NJ Patch
Daily Record

And now the rub. Triple Threat Productions was there and captured the police coming in. These guys have a great message to all ravers and viewers alike, not to mention kick-ass videos and pictures. Here's the footage:

 

Jersey deserves good events. Hell, Electric Daisy Carnival is coming there soon and even Insomniac stripped them from the title. Aight, comment below and let me know what you think about all this.
