About Tasho:

Tasho is a long time defender of the San Francisco dance community. As a resident of the timeless Stompy club night, Tasho (nee Tasho Nicolopulous) has been bringing jam after jam to Bay-Area clubs for over a decade. Alongside production partner and vocal whiz Monty Luke, his first single for mothership — “Paranoid” — has had trainspotters clamoring for a sneak peak. Expect much more to come.

About Christine Tocalino:

Born out of punk rock and early industrial, Christine Tocalino spent her youth playing (and breaking) every instrument she could get her hands on.  She took up the decks in 2005 and, realizing she had finally found her passion, soon hooked up with her musical partners: Brian Walls and David Marks to launch the East Bay's first weekly techno party - BOTTOM FEEDER (now happening every 1st Sunday at the Oasis in Oakland)-  as a vehicle for exploring the raw, animalistic, and physical side of post-modern electronic dance music, for pushing the musical boundaries of its ever-morphing subgenres, while adding a hefty dose of humor and a splash of chaos to an art form that often takes itself too seriously.  The techno they embraced was not sterile, cold and robotic - it was alive and hungry, unpredictable by nature, and sometimes it left stains on the carpet.  

 In the fall of 2007, Christine along with the Bottom Feeder crew expanded across the bay into San Francisco with a new monthly event - SOFT TARGET (3rd Tuesdays at 222 Hyde) - one of the four 222uesdays parties that are fast becoming ground zero in SF's blossoming techno underground.

 Just three years behind the decks, Christine will impress with her unique taste and rare selections that are somehow tough yet delicate, powerful yet restrained, explicit yet subtle, thoroughly unconventional yet absolutely compelling on the dance floor, and often smoldering in the dark with a visceral sensuality.  You can find her at her residencies and guest spots throughout the city.  Get ready to sweat.
