Who Rocks the Party? We Rock the Party!

So “Static Glide” was a huge successes! Thank you everybody for coming out and making it an amazing night. Pictures of the evening will be up in the media section soon! Plus look out for the new album by Hjalti some time in late June.

Eye Candy

As if 4 DJs and 2 live sets by everyone’s favorite d.iscontent artists wasn’t enough, you now have more reason to hit up the Baltic Room on Sunday for Static Glide Part 2. Reigning Opticlash champion Scobot will be providing live visuals during the festivities. See you there, comrades!

Static Glide 2 Line Up

The line up for Static Glide 2 will be as follows:

9:00pm Travis Baron
9:30pm Greg Skidmore
10:30pm Hjalti
11:15pm Miniature Airlines
12:00am Levitation Device
1:00am Struggle

Hope to see you all there!

Like Acute Food Poisoning the MAN Can’t Keep Us Down

Just a quick note to let all our adoring fans know that the awesomeness that is Static Glide Part 2 just got awesomer. Since there were some logistical difficulties at Static Glide 1, thanks to the Seattle Fire Marshall shutting down the VIP Room and half of Neumo’s, Greg Skidmore and Struggle didn’t get to perform that night. So the obvious solution is to welcome these two amazing DJs to Static Glide Part 2! That’s right, next Sunday at the Baltic Room, there will be 4 DJs in styles ranging from dubstep to IDM and beyond, plus the two live sets by Hjalti and Miniature Airlines. You can’t ask for a better line up, especially not for a show that’s free before 10. Come early, drink heavily, and dance with gleeful abandon this Memorial Day Weekend, and the expanded and improved Static Glide. It is your duty.

Buttons, Buttons, Who’s Got the Buttons?

Comrades and party members,

Finally the set of three d.iscontent buttons along with the access to the Peristroka split EP are assembled and ready for the masses. They are $2 a set and will be made available at the show (Sunday May 25th at the Baltic Room) as well as from the web site later on. All the cool kids will be wearing them so don’t be left out on the trend that is sweeping the nation!

Radio is like TV without the pictures!

To all the loyal party members,

Miniature Airlines and Hjalti are going to get some air play! DJG’s show Variations will be showcasing the artists of Static Glide 2. So listen to 91.3 KBCS on Friday May 23rd 11-1. There will be more details and perhaps a surprise or two to follow from the d.iscontent crew.

Static Glide I Tonight !!!

Comrades!

Tonight at the VIP room the first installment of Static Glide is going on fom 9pm-2am. Telephone Jim Jesus and DJ Egadz are going to be there, and they are guaranteed to rock the party. Besides the live music, Struggle and one of the Cadre’s favorite DJs, Greg Skidmore, will be throwing down the beats until the wee hours of the morn. If all that wasn’t enough you can hang out with your favorite d.iscontent artists (which for many is a dream come true) and if you ask very sweetly we may even let you have some of the new buttons. With so much amazingness there is no reason not to be at Static Glide I.

~New EP from Hjalti~

The “Some Summers Don’t Need Answers” EP is a good look into what Hjalti has been doing in the past few months. The first two tracks are off his upcoming album “Winter Asks What We Did in the Summer”. The final track is Hjalti’s first ever song, written while he was in high school (The song uses only sounds from Windows  98 and AOL). A great preview for the upcoming show May 25th at the Baltic Room.

The Future

Still getting the last pieces of media online, but the site is pretty much officially live at this point, if a little rough around the edges. Kick the tires and enjoy it. Breath in the new car smell.

Things to watch out for: The Hjalti vs. Miniature Airlines split EP at the end of the month, along with their debut live sets at Static Glide Part 2. You could also come and hang out at Static Glide Part 1, this Friday at the VIP Room. There’s a slight possibilty that Car Stereo Destroys Michael Bolton Tape will be making a return DJ appearance soon, so stay tuned for that.

Sometime after May, we’ll be announcing a new artist, and some new music from Hjalti. And that’s all we can talk about now, for fear of jinxing any future plans.

Lift Off

We’re currently working feverishly behind the scenes to polish off the last few bits of code before sending this website off to the great big server in the sky. D.iscontent is ready for the world. Is the world ready for D.iscontent?

UPDATE: So the site’s online, but the audio isn’t up yet. Working on uploading and linking it now.
