Imagine entering a cosmic forest of another realm where you are free to absorb and react to mesmerizing sights and sounds.



When you walk in to The Outer Limits, you will be surrounded by incredible deco and visual projections which will serve as a stimulating backdrop for dancing the night away to mind-blowing electronic music. Taking the stage for our audio pleasure in The Outer Limits will be the inter...nationally known DJ Rikam of Neurobiotic Records from Montreal, Canada. We have also invited, among other exceptional artists, Luis Campos (headliner for Cosmic Wave II), an architect of sound, and the amazing DJ KeN (headliner for Cosmic Wave I), to join forces for a special tag set which is sure to set the floor on fire.



As always, you are welcome to enjoy striking body painting and stunning fire performances throughout the night.



As you wander further into the cosmic forest, you will reach The Inner Sanctum where you can relax in the fabric cushion lounge and view an astounding 3-D art installation. While taking a moment to chill in the lounge, enjoy a fantastic massage and listen to an invigorating melange of Dubstep, Tech-House, Funktronic and more. Although The Inner Sanctum features more down tempo music, you can still expect bodies to be in motion out on the floor. Keepin’ it movin’ and groovin’ behind the decks will be ELECTRONICAnonymous (opened for Lotus), RekOne vs. Brad Lee, The Dark Flow and we’ll be bringing back our Dubstep master, FOGES. We will also be bringing back the nasty Funktronic duo, The Beatdown Collective, so you can get down to some raw, funky, jazzy electronic sounds. Evolution will truly be a Cosmic Event not to be missed as it will be the most extravagant gathering Vudoo Productions has created yet. So come join us for amazing art and music, beautiful people and a constant flow of positive energy. We'll see you on the Dance Floor!





Peace, Love, and Positive Vibes,

Vúdoo Productions

He first encountered techno, acid-house and acid-trance music in the early 1990s and started collecting his first vinyl records. He first discovered goa trance parties around 1994. Following his passion for this new music and new energy and his desire to share it, he produced the first psytrance, goa-trance and techno parties in Trois-Rivières (Quebec) with eXpérience productions.

DJ ANYA (Sonic Beating) BOS/RUS

http://djmix.net/anya

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-32rMKzli9g



Anya is a Russian-born psytrance, techno, & house dj living in the US. She first got into electronic music in 1995 when breakbeat eletronic groups like Crystal Method and Chemical Brothers were getting really big around the world. In the next few years, she explored IDM like Aphex Twin and Autechre. The rave scene in the US blew up around 1999, and she started going to these allnight dance events. This was an exciting time because so many different genres of electronic music were being showcased in the same venue in one night!

Fast-forward to 2007... when Anya joined up with the Sonic Beating psytrance promotion and party organization crew in Boston USA.Having been a psytrance/goa fan for a long time, she was excited to help this awesome crew of people! She first began to assist with set ups and soon became the bookings organizer for the crew. Anya also learned to DJ progressive and psytrance around this time with motivation from a few inspiring friends :)

In just a few short years, Anya had built a name for herself in the US, but has yet to be defined by one genre. Playing everything from 155 bpm dark aggressive psytrance to 120 bpm dreamy slow progressive house, she's got sets to please all types of tastes :) Even in the fastest tracks, she seeks a groovy bass line that keeps asses shakin' and feet stompin. She is best known for offering up 2 sets in the same festival: her serious psy sets mixed with forest, night and dark music... and really deep romantic SEXY tech/prog house! Her mixing is always on point, with powerful bass line switches, and she has a huge stage presence that gets people excited.

Having played all over the US in clubs, festivals and parties, she's traveled to both coasts to rock groovy sets for happy dancers. Anya has also been a featured guest on the 10-year running WZBC radio station (www.wzbc.org) show “Green” with Jeff Mission & used to hold a bimonthly slot on the Greek psy internet radio station MelexRadio. Internationally, she's played in Italy, Switzerland, Canada & Morocco including the amazing TimeGate NYE party, Eclipse Festival & Transahara Festival

ELECTRONICAnonymous (Shireworx) MA

http://soundcloud.com/electronicanonymous



ELECTRONICAnonymous is the EDM brain-child of Jules Jenssen. 1/3 of underground dance-fusion power trio HiGHER ORGANiX, Jules has been playing music since he was 6 years old, first dabbling in piano, then embracing the drums as his musical voice. Heavily rooted in traditional band style rock/ funk music, (Floyd, Hendrix, Zeppelin, Phish, all his father's bands, etc..) Jules found electronic music as a pre-teen and immediately was drawn to carefully sculpted, evolving beats, throbbing bass, and euphoric synthetic sound design. Although he didn't start making electronic music for years, he continued to integrate the theory into his drumming and live band. In the summer of 2008, Jules dove head first into the world of EDM production and nocturnal sleep cycles, making everything from electro-house, to dubstep, to krunk - -& styles yet-unnamed. Having already headlined shows including Music Ecology @ Wonderbar Boston, played festivals such as Camp Bisco, Desiderata, and the Big Up as well as having shared the stage with OTT, Lotus, Sub Swara, Bluetech, King Britt, Dub War NYC and Psylab, to name a few, the anonymous might not be unknown for long...

These days, people want unique and organic. That's what Benjamin Fogel provides. Also known as FOGES, Fogel has been producing and DJing house/electronic and dubstep music since 2007.

There, he was exposed to the electronic music scene and instantly knew what direction his music would take. Over the past three years, FOGES has experimented with many different forms of music, ranging from primitive to acousmatic genres. Through this wide range of influences, an original and organic sound was born, unique and appealing to a wide variety of listeners. His experiences studying music technology and composition in Boston, Mass. have also influenced his musical performance.
