DJ Dane began DJing in 2006 inspired by the booming house parties and undergrounds of San Francisco and the sun setting behind the mountains during his first trip to Black Rock City.  Ever since, he has worked on developing his dirty, bouncy, booty-shakin' style at clubs, undergrounds and renegades in San Francisco and beyond.  He produces the I Like it Dirty Podcast a blend electro, breaks and house beats which has been the ranked #1 Big Beat podcast since January 2011, reaching thousands of people worldwide.

October FiX with DJ Zach Moore

We, the FiX Boyz, are happy to announce this month's guest is DJ Zach Moore.  With an impressive history in the local dance scene and beyond, be ready to come and shake it with style!  Keep reading for a little background on the eminent Mr. Moore. 

An Ohio native and a San Francisco resident of sixteen years, Zach Moore (djzachmoore.com), was first smitten by house music on the back patio of the Phoenix Hotel in the summer of 1999. From that fateful encounter at one of San Francisco’s infamous Wet Parties, a profound appreciation for electronic music and the art of the mix was born, and so began Zach’s eleven-year love affair with DJing.

Over the years Zach’s love for electronic music has run the gamut (deep, vocal, tech, progressive & electro house, breakbeat and techno) but of late the focus of his live sets and recorded mixes have been the breakbeat, electro house and tech funk genres. 

Zach also produces the The Gough Street Sessions (http://thegoughstreetsessions.podomatic.com), an enormously popular podcast featuring guest mixes from top international DJ talent such as Elite Force, Meat Katie, Dylan Rhymes, Soul of Man and local heroes like Opel’s Syd Gris, Seismic’s MurphStar and 8Ball of The Space Cowboys. And the project continues to garner attention both nationally and abroad while appearing on respected music sites such as Jungo Road, The Tech Funk Manifesto, Breakzlinkz, Podomatic, SoundCloud, iTunes and Mix.Dj. 

After three fruitful and rewarding years with his good friends at The Deep End, Zach joined forces with The Space Cowboys (www.spacecowboys.org), another famed San Francisco-based Burning Man crew, in January 2010. Zach embraced this new affiliation by launching, The RIPEcast (http://bit.ly/RIPEcast-iTunes), a weekly podcast featuring, most notably, live recordings from the Cowboys’ 10^th Annual Breakfast of Champions New Year’s Day party. 

Also, FiX will be debuting DJ Stüx in her first club appearance.  Make sure to come early to check out the fresh blood in the DJ scene!

DJ Lineup:
9:00 - 10:00: DJ Stüx

August FiX with Jen Woolfe

A Seattle to San Francisco transplant, Jen Woolfe has been making dance floors sticky along the West Coast since 2001. From Intimate Ambient to Elegant Electro House & New School Breaks, Jen's sounds are deep, dirty and a little tongue-in-cheek. She'll have you laughing in one moment and leave you seduced, sipping on your soul the next. Stay tuned till the end of her set, there's always a story to tell. 

Jen began her DJ career in 2001, after realizing her favorite spot on the dance floor was 2 feet away from the DJ booth, watching the hands of every Deep and Tech House DJ to visit her hometown of Seattle. Soon after she picked up Deep Dish's Global Underground, she made the move to Progressive House, a genre that succumbs to her seductive style and intimate journeys. In 2005 she returned to her Alt-Rock roots by fusing dance, rock & new school breaks and tinting her style with elegant electro. 

Jen's versatility allows her to play any time of night at any venue, always served with style. Her desire to bring together diverse communities under one groove has helped her to be one of the most loved and devoted DJ's on the West Coast. Jen has played at venues across the U.S., including San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Las Vegas, Reno, Vancouver B.C., Boston, Boise, Idaho Falls, Colorado and Black Rock City. She is currently an affiliate of Shameless in San Francisco. Listen to mixes and read about her adventures at http://www.jenwoolfe.com, or subscribe to her entertaining antics on Twitter http://www.twitter.com/jenwoolfe.
