Ecstatic Dance SLC - illoom (05 13)

On Wednesday, May 13, illoom drops in to Ecstatic Dance SLC to bring his signature style of ecstatic dance dub grooves for your midweek dance reset. Come move, drop in, and connect in community. ✦ Opening Movement: 6pm ✦ Dance: 7pm ✦ Krishna Temple — Millcreek ✦•··········•✦•············•✦ illoom With a dub saturated sound, solid track selection and a reputation for bringin' it proper, illoom has been pushing the limits of speakers and genres for years. With well over a decade behind the decks, James Loomis aka "illoom" has served as one of the pioneering figures in the Salt Lake City mutant bass arena. Founder of Liquid Dubwise, one of the longest running dubstep nights in North America, he keeps his city on the cutting edge of subwoofer culture. Despite a heavy rotation of residencies at Dubwise, Basscamp, and the Hive in SLC, Sidecar Subsessions in Park City, and Basscamp's Temple of Boom in Black Rock City, illoom always brings a fresh take on the music and new tunes every time. illoom's sound is defined by high energy, sultry basslines, frequent references to Roots and Dub, and special attention to wigglin the ladies' waistlines. Ultra fast mixes and mash-up's see well over 30 tunes blended on the turntables in an hour, in a seamless progression that, well, makes perfect sense. An old school disciple of the proper role of a dj to the dance floor, the man is an active participant in the container, not a passive face staring at a computer screen. illoom always packs ample vibrations of positive pressure to rattle the plaque off your bones.......a true 50 Hz Healer.
