Much has happened since I started DJing in 2019. Not once for a second did I ever think that, 5 years later, I’d be planning, promoting, and executing my own events and parties. But, here we are.
I have many goals in my music career and I have accomplished quite a few over just the last couple of years. One of these goals was to plan, organize, and put on a house music event in Idaho Falls. The EDM community here is mostly one of bass, dubstep, and riddim. House music didn’t really seem to have a home in Idaho Falls…
Until now.
The Awakening with Discognition at The Gem in Idaho Falls is 100% a house music lover’s party. But, this isn’t just any house music. This event is dedicated to underground house music. Specifically underground progressive house, melodic house, techno, organic house, electronica, and breaks. This isn’t “festival” progressive house like Deadmou5, Armin van Buuren, or Charlotte De Witte. No. The Awakening is how house music is supposed to be experienced.
This is underground house music like John Digweed, Sasha, Nick Warren, Hernán Cattáneo, and Nicole Moudaber. This is the kind of underground house music that will take you on a musical journey unlike any you’ve ever had before. Long, buttery transitions. Ethereal ambience. Pumping 4-to-the-floor beats and the sickest synthesizers you’ve ever heard. This is proper rave music. This is EXACTLY what you’ve been waiting for in the East Idaho EDM community.
In his very first headline appearance, Discognition will be the master conductor at the helm of the evening. Discognition is a prominent and rising star organic/progressive house producer and DJ based in Denver, CO. Discognition was the perfect choice to headline my very first event because I have opened for Discognition on two previous occasions, both online. I have been his biggest fan in East Idaho for years. And when the opportunity to book him came along, I jumped all over it.
The only way to understand just who Discognition is and why I had to have him headline this show, check him out on your favorite streaming service.
The support lineup includes Darqness out of Boise, ID, Sensei The Beast out of Twin Falls, ID, N.S.Z. from Idaho Falls, and myself. Each one of these DJs was hand selected for their ability to curate the perfect underground house music set – culminating into THE house music event east Idaho is finally ready to awaken for.
Hence, The Awakening.
I wanted my very first solo promoted, planned, and executed party to be the party that wakes up the sleeping members of our local EDM community. I want to show east Idaho another side of electronic music. One that can coexist and thrive within the community. One that can attract a whole new group of fans, followers, and friends. A side that serves to offer the community a more rounded selection of live DJ entertainment.
So, please, join me as I welcome real, raw, and unfiltered underground house music to east Idaho. I can promise you that you will never forget this show. I’m putting everything I can into it to make it perfect for you.
