THE BODYROCK DJs - As an important fixture in the Los Angeles House Music scene the BodyRockDJs have become widely known as some of the best that house music has to offer.  Respected by some of the biggest names in house music, The BodyRockDJs have shared massive arenas as well as more  intimate settings with DJs Mark Farina, Miguel Migs, Jay-J, Donald Glaude, DJ Heather, Marques Wyatt, Garth, and their biggest influence, west coast pioneer Doc Martin along with many others.  Simply put the LA underground dance community has been dramatically influenced by Benjamin and Marcus, whether hosting the BodyRock in the Park parties or just spinning at one the other many events Los Angeles has to offer.  Always humble the BodyRockDJs strive to bring all the funk and groove that house music has to offer.  They’re not scared of playing techno, deep house, breakbeats, or anything that makes the crowd move.  The BodyRockDJs’ love of electronic music and most specifically house-music-without-a-genre is reflected in the performance they give each and every time they rock the floor.

The most recent project from these two can be found on Frik and Frak Records.  Their remix of Josh Billings’  In 2006 they created Quietly Freakin' a record label which debuted remixes of LA Loves You Vol. 1 by Justin Martin of San Fransisco and DirtyBird Records fame as well as Broken Home who now resides in San Diego and also goes under the name Average Joe.  Although new to music production the pair intend to focus on the same ideology as their DJ sets, house-music-without-a-genre.

SAYNT

" One has to be a very good and usually, a very dead person to become a saint, and more importantly, you have to perform 3 miracles... "

In true ninja fashion, SAYNT draws from diverse musical landscapes to produce a singular outcome: A style that can't be described, only felt. His unique style of House Music offers an eargasmic feast that is seasoned with all the flavors of the genre.  Whether Poolside, or Peak Hour, SAYNT works to draw the crowd into an experience of pure ass shaking delight.  Having been fortunate enough to appear on bills with many of the industry’s top names at festivals and venues like Burning Man, Coachella, JuJu Beats, Lightning in A Bottle, Lucent L’Amour, and Elysium as well as L.A. mega-clubs Avalon, Circus, and Vanguard, SAYNT’s signature sound has rocked crowds from L.A. to D.C. 

Founder of L.A.’s Ninja Skillz Music, SAYNT has organized events for more than a decade including co-creating the Fuente Eterno and Alma Paradiso Festivals in Mexico that are still going strong.  While Ninja Skillz L.A. has a history of mind blowing events and continues to thrive, SAYNT, The BODY ROCK DJS, and SAMMY BLISS headed to the Bay Area in late 2009 to form Ninja Skillz S.F. and carry on the tradition of complete sensory overload in a totally new scene.  When not stuck between headphones, SAYNT is stuck in books as a student of Anthropology and Religion at UC Berkeley.
