Announcing Winter Fantasy for 2013 in Hidalgo, TX featuring deadmau5

Disco Donnie Presents, Global Groove Events and Sugar Society are excited to announce the third annual Winter Fantasy. Get lost in a snowy wonderland as ground-breaking dance music superstar deadmau5 will be performing his critically-acclaimed “unhooked set” at the State Farm Arena in Hidalgo, TX on Monday, December 30th. Make a list and check it twice – tickets for the holiday event go on sale on Saturday, October 26th at the official Winter Fantasy website and the State Farm Arena Box Office.

Though Canada native deadmau5 didn’t set out to become a ground-breaking musician, his productions have definitely changed dance music culture as we know it. Just last year, he gave a monumental performance at the 54th Grammy Awards as part of the prestigious ceremony’s first-ever celebration of electronic music. He is also the first electronic artist in history to grace the cover of Rolling Stone.

Deadmau5′ Unhooked show is what Joel Zimmerman calls his freestyle sets. They’ve been known to feature a full-length mix of some of his favorite songs, originals and bootlegs that you will never ever hear anywhere else. Taking his live show to the next level, the mau5 sounds and samples he uses during his performance are composed of on-the-fly by triggered loops found within his arsenal.

Get ready for the most unhooked gift you’ll be given this year. Tickets go on sale Saturday, October 26th!

Something Wicked Artist Profile: Figure

artist figureTalented Something Wicked producer Figure, also known as Josh Gard, started out in the music industry by producing hip-hop for well-known rappers. Heavily influenced by artists like The Prodigy and The Chemical Brothers, Gard immersed himself in dance music, which was a surprisingly smooth transition since a major bulk of his early productions were sampled-based. Later donning the Figure name, signature productions like “Zombie” have earned him a growing number of fans who are dying to hear more of his music. He’s even been endorsed by some iconic names in the industry such as Skrillex, The Bloody Beetroots and A-Trak.

Before Gard became bass music’s prince of darkness, he first began producing electro house at his studio in Evansville, Indiana. Honing his style, early productions started to drift into bass-driven music as seen in his In & Out of Brooklyn EP released in 2009. The following year, his two-track EP The Doses/War Fair would lay the blueprint for his ever-so-loved horror sound. Figure continued to embrace the Halloween vibe for his music with his The Death of Joshua EP. Soon, more horror-themed tracks started to pop-up, “I have always been a horror buff — from old horror punk to watching people get stabbed on the big screen. I remember watching some of my first horror films when I was younger and its all I could think about until I watched the next one.”

Figure has often been praised for giving away his latest productions for free, proving he is as humble as he is talented. His recent Monsters of Drumstep releases have attracted many fans who share the same love of horror, proving the artist isn’t going anywhere for a long time.

For Figure, dance music is a lifestyle that takes 100% of effort every day. “When I wake up I turn the production stuff on and I sit and work on stuff until I’m ready to sleep. If you want to make it in the music world you have to not treat it like a hobby. It’s your girlfriend, work, and child”. This year has been epic for his career, as he is currently touring with crunkstepper Crizzly on the All Black Everything Tour and is releasing some massive tracks in his Soundcloud right in time for the Halloween event.

We hope to get into some Child’s Play when Figure makes his way to the Sam Houston Race Park on saturday october 26th for Something Wicked. Grab your tickets today before is too late.
