We are happy to announce the following musical guests have been confirmed

DJ Heavy Grinder- A native of Seattle, HeavyGrinder currently resides in Los Angeles where she is a part time student, and full time DJ. At age thirteen, she began to actively pursue her love of music and being on center stage by taking up vocal training and modeling. After years of traveling, she made her way to LA in 1998. It was in the City of Angels that she realized her new love, cozying up to the sounds of underground dance music, captivated by the power of the DJ and the reaction of the crowd.
A dream was born.
Now 24 year old, HeavyGrinder is capturing the attention of audiences worldwide. Spain ( Ibiza ), Japan, China, Korea, Taiwan, Thailand, Indonesia and Mexico have been key international stops for this talent so far. In the Los Angeles club scene alone, she has played at most notable venues including Key Club, Highlands, Century Club, Avalon, Sunset Room and White Lotus. When she’s not playing in her hometown, HG is regularly headlining events across the United States at some of the biggest clubs and has performed in cities from Anchorage to Washington D.C., and Atlanta back to Honolulu as well as dozens of cities in between.
As of recent, HeavyGrinder has been working on her own music production and has released a track featuring the veteran vocal talents of SuSu Bobien on the well-respected house label, Soundmen on Wax; as well as a track You think You do that was pressed on vinyl by Star Fruits Records.

Royal Dead - Japanese Rock Band preformed all over Europe and Asia.


Rose Thompson/Raqs Attaq! Rose is a professional dancer based in Atlanta, Georgia. She is known by many as the 'Chatni/Chutney Bellydancer' within the West-Indian community, or the 'Otaku Bellydancer' at cosplay events and anime/manga conventions.
