dub beautiful collective is very proud to present a special night with


Solar Fields [LIVE] (Ultimae Records, Sweden)

...continuing dub beautiful collective's tryst with the premiere ambient trance label Ultimae Records (Lyon, France), Magnus Birgersson joins us in San Francisco at the tail end of his US/Canadian tour.  Magnus creates spatial and lush ambient territories punctuated by driving rhythms floating under crisp psychedelia. Magnus is truly an electronic musician - as his creations are littered with his own recordings on guitar, bass, and percussion.

Solar Fields is also one-half of the H.U.V.A. Network which released their first full length recently on Ultimae Records...

dub beautiful collective returns with a daytime-bbq-chillout live music event. join dbc as we welcome Aes Dana of Ultimae Records from Lyon, France. Aes Dana (Vincent) will be performing a 2 hour live set, topped off by a short DJ set. As the co-head of Ultimae Records and as the label's flagship recording artist, he has built an amazing catalogue of releases which have created and defined the downtempo chillout trance sound. Vincent and his partner Sunbeam (who could not join us as they recently welcome their daughter Iris into the world) are also known as the designers of the amazing Fahrenheit Project compilation series.

for the first time ever, Mystical Sun (link) will perform a live remix set. Richard is an ambient & downtempo virtuoso local to the Bay Area. he is one of the most well known electronic artists from the now defunct MP3.com. he has been releasing music for years with high profile labels (Interchill, Waveform, Ultimae, Solar World) but this is his debut performance venture outside the studio.

dub beautiful cadre artist MNO (link) rounds out the live roster with his subtle and textured performance as Ambient Marimba. live synthesis, remixing, and beat structuring on laptop & synths along with melodies and frenetic rhythms played on vibraphone.

and we'd like to make mention of opening DJ and GRILLMASTAH Afut. Ryan will be serving up chill music on the decks, and then hot food on the grill.
