A heady mix of full-moon parties, beach parties, dirty warehouses, laid-back clubs, and crazy house-parties coupled with psychedelic, funky, deep house and organic breaks. In 1993 Anthony met Manny (DJ M3) and began promoting both club and underground events, including Deep Space and Get Down, Get Down. By 1994, Anthony went back home for college in Upstate NY at Skidmore. While there he threw his own monthly club events and countless basement house parties. Anthony also hosted a popular radio show for four years showcasing house, dub, disco, hip hop, funk and soul all mixed. In 1998, Anthony moved back to his home town of Ithaca, New York and began promoting club and underground events via Hector Works. He started Beat-Down, Upstates longest running house weekly, which continues to this day. Anthony's biggest contribution to Ithaca was Odyssey Night Club where he was the first employee, resident DJ, general manager and booking agent. Located downtown in a historic Masonic temple, this 20,000 square foot mega-club hosted such luminaries as Maceo Parker, Soulive, Black Eyed Peas, The English Beat, New Deal, Sound Tribe Sector 9, Derrick Trucks, John Browns Body as well as DJ Mark Farina, Soulstice, Markie & Jeno from Wicked, Vitamin D, DJ Who, and many others. Anthonys latest chapter is relaunching his company Hector Works as an independent music label and, as of January 2006 Anthony is one of the new owners of world reknown Tweekin Records (www.tweekin.com). NICK CHACONA As the branches of house stretch further and further out across the universe of sub-genres, it's quite easy for many artists to be pigeonholed into this or that sound. It's seems quite the opposite for Brooklyn, NY's Nick Chacona. Over the years his productions have grown to encompass elements of sound from across the world of dance music, melding the arpeggiated sounds of Rimini, the trackiness of Chicago, minimalism of Berlin, and dubbed out vibes of Kingston, Jamaica sometimes in the same track. Nick began producing in 1999 under the Version Eternal moniker for NY label Homestyle Cooking. In 2003, Nick released his tour de force in "Band Practice," the b-side to his mysterious promo-only "Pool Party" project. Initially the release was under the radar but within a year, "Band Practice" was a frequent tune in the sets of DJs from Harvey, Rub & Tug, and Prins Thomas, and whatever copies that were left sold out swiftly, turning the record into a much sought after collector's piece. Since that time Nick has gone on to release tracks on renowned labels Moodmusic, 2020 Vision, Ben Watt's Buzzin Fly, Saw, Dogtown, Bearfunk, and the inaugural release for Prins Thomas's Internasjonal. Nick is a partner in the Hector Works imprint that was founded by his old skateboarding buddy Anthony Mansfield (Barfly, Rong Records) that has released a number of collaborations between the two and reissued both "Pool Party" and "Brand Practice" as proper singles. He has recently finished remixes for Tiny Sticks, Gomma, Still Music's Past Due, Ransom Note, Eighttrack, and is in the throws of finishing up his first full Length release for Sasse's Moodmusic. In a DJ capacity, Nick is as versatile as you will find. He began spinning over 15 years ago, strictly playing reggae but shortly thereafter fell in love with house & disco. Never one to let the crowd down, Nick's sets are filled with energy, finesse, and diversity flowing from nu disco, house, techno, italo and classics—whatever is required in the moment. He has played across the US from NY to San Francisco, as well as Brazil, Germany, Spain, Poland, Romania, Belgium, Sweden, Serbia, Holland, and the UK.
