(www.austinleeds.com , www.myspace.com/djaustinleeds , Hamachi, Terratraxx)
Playing and producing music that has stimulated and mesmerized crowds, Austin Leeds has created his own distinct movement in the global dance music community. His unforgettable mixes have been heard in the most respected and desirable clubs around the world. His innovative sounds and productions have led to many studio collaborations with some of the finest DJ's and producers in the industry.
Austin's recent productions have been getting massive reactions. Terranova and Austin Leeds singles " Shake Me," " Rock Me," "Dirty Sound," " For the Pills " and " Only You" all have been topping the charts and destroying clubs around the world. These singles have been on numerous CD compilations and played in clubs and on radio everywhere. Danny Tenaglia, Erick Morillo, DJ Vibe, Oscar G, Deep Dish, John Digweed, Sander Kleinenberg, and Superchumbo are just a short list of world class DJ's and producers who are fans of Austin's sound.
In the last year Austin has had 5 Tracks played on the BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix by Deep Dish, Murk, Sharam, Armin Van Burren, and Seb Fontaine. #1 DJ in the world, Paul Van Dyk, who is a huge fan of Austin's productions asked him and partner Nick Terranova to do a collaboration track for his new album. Nikki Beach Music also approached Nick and Austin to mix and compile their 10th Anniversary CD. Keep an ear out for Austin Leeds' solo projects as well as a mix compilation release later this year.

Now 12 years later, delving into mature nightlife, still supporting the raw underground, and always moving towards positive evolution for all... Columns of Knowledge exists as a doorway to positive dance. We will ALWAYS be here for those who want to be a part of something More than just one night out.

We don’t claim to be originators, just innovators. We have bartenders, gogo dancers, hostesses, models, and shot girls. There are 27 girls. We like that there are other companies, and wish them the best. We honestly have more work than we can handle. If girls want to dance they can work for us, we have fun doing our jobs, but understand that not everyone likes it. We take it seriously, and if girls we hire don’t, they don’t last. We try to push the edge when we can, but its just not appropriate when we are working at events at say, the thirsty turtle. Some people might think we look “sluttyâ€, but we see it as an art…. The art of entertainment. We love it. We also try to book local dj talent, Dawn (breakadawn), Kelly(annk), Manny Rivera, Gera, lady Rosa, Jaimie Daze
And it just happens that we like house music. Marketing is key, and we have done well so far. We hope that you will continue to support us the best you can, and all the other girls in new England that put themselves up on a stage, because it really isn’t easy.
Competition is good for everyone.
We will be launching a new website in two weeks.
We have a new event starting Next Saturday
We are dancing at fashion show after party tonight 4.13.2007 with kered to benefit spina bifida
check our myspace for upcoming events:

Im going to attach some pictures in case some of you guys don’t know about us.
Long Live House.
Butterfly House
i know you guys didnt claim that and i do respect what you are doing.

nahh it's simply the market and its current demands...anytime there's an "originator" that has good success, others will jump on it to try and make their business out of it...it doesn't matter if their "worth their price" SOMEONE will pay for it if marketed right...otherwise they'll be out of business quickly.
IMHO, Room 960 & the Butterfly House Girls are the originators...now when someone else jumps into that scene two things can happen: one they can be written off as wannabes, maybe get a spot or 2, gig, few nights, whatever and do OK but fade out in the end, or 2...it creates a healthy dose of competition and makes everyone in the end work hard...and sometimes they can overtake and become the "top dog" in the end...but all of them get their fair share, make $$$$, and everyone actually wins out in the end...
As I get my quote in the TV business..."Dominance = Arrogance = Laziness = LAST PLACE"
i realy beg to differ about 960 being the originators of the go go dance scene...lol
we been doing it for over years in the rave scene. Therapy in RI been doing it for just as long as well.
Butterfly girls have nothing on Suiside Girls, Vicarious Girls or the Bad Ass Bitches.
-
anyone got more popcorn? Guess this attraction isn't over yet...
-
in my opinion i don't think that some of these go go dancers are worth their price but how ever they dance there ass off and get the people going on the floor. i do think they should be clothed a little more. maybe look a little less slutty. maybe they should also work on a dance choreography so the appear more professional.

APRIL 14 2007
COLUMNS OF KNOWLEDGE PRESENTS ::::::
MAIN ROOM ::::::
SERGE DEVANT
(Ultra Records, Crobar, www.sergedevant.com, myspace.com/sergedevant, NYC)
When you're sitting as number 81 in the world (DJ Magazine) and personally hand picked to share the stage with the worlds top DJs , including being tagged by DJ Tiesto himself to open and close for him in NYC, youve got something. Now armed with his new residency at Crobar, what he has is your attention. Hear him perform and you will witness a skillful exhibition from one of the most promising young talents in the electronic industry todaywe are talking about Serge Devant.
Before coming to America, as a child, Serge always had music infused into his daily life. His parents were deeply routed in the art community and enrolled Serge in music education at a young age. When he came to New York, it was the legendary club Twilo in the late nineties that inspired him to pursue his current quest. The atmosphere, the energy of Twilo was a big influence on me in the late 90s hearing different DJs from Europe Serge recalls. He started DJ'ing locally and that eventually led to production. Channeling his immense musical background and combining it with his new found love for electronic music he began creating works that got attention.
One of the people to spot Serge's talent was top trance diva vocalist Jan Johnston. Known for her works collaborating with the likes of BT, Paul Van Dyk and Tiesto, she was immediately impressed with Serges potential. In 2004 they got together to create the single Transparent which was signed to Armin Van Buren's label Armada. The record was licensed and appeared on numerous compilations.
The well respected UK label, Lost Language then sought out Serges ability for a string of singles. He completed mixes for Tilt and Lustral and released 3 vinyl EPs. With this success, Lost Language asked him to mix their prestigious series of compilations under the name Exhibition 3. Exhibition 3 hit the stores in November of 2005 and included 3 CDs.
In early 2005, Crobar, one of the largest, most modern and award-winning clubs in North America, requested Serge to play with Tiesto. A few gigs after that and Serge became the clubs youngest resident DJ. To this day, Tiesto personally requests Serge to play with him each and every time he visits NYC. Now, Serge frequently shares the stage with half a dozen more of the worlds DJ elite.
The new exposure allowed him to catch the eye of another talented diva, former Iio lead singer Nadia Ali. Nadia, being impressed with Serges classical training, asked him to work on her upcoming album as well as some tour dates, lending his piano skills during performances. Serge gladly accepted the opportunity to express his abilities not only as a DJ but as a musician on stage. This is where Serge Devant is different. His works are stylistically diverse, transcending the boundaries of electronic music and breaking the barriers of expression. He's been quoted as saying: "I get bored of doing the same style of music very quickly and usually when I sit down in the studio... I just start making what feels right at the moment... a certain bass line, guitar or chord progression could take my record anywhere and I let it take me there, and see what happens at the end". The result: A hard-hitting, riveting but classically beautiful sound that is way more than just electronic. So sit back and enjoy the ride! Welcome to the music of Serge Devant.
KNOWLEDGE
(myspace.com/djknowledge, www.columnsofknowledge.com, CT)
Inspired to dj in April 1995, Knowledge... began a journey of electronic dance music performance. Knowledge began performing for local audience by kicking his public performance career off @ Shrine held in April 1996 by the Nature Boyz in Stamford, CT. Following this gig he slowly began building a fanbase around his unique blend of many styles. Over a period of many years he cultivated this sound and slowly began also playing harder music around 2000. Taking inspiration from Frankie Bones, Nigel Richards, T-1000, Josh Wink, and Scott Henry his style continued to evolve. His first flown gig was for his friend Chris Irvin in Colorado. During this trip with his then fiance Kellie, he visited the legendary Red Rocks. Continuing his travels, he visited Detroit, Chicago, Hollywood, the entire east coast, and more... His style kicked into high gear when the uk hardhouse/hard nrg movement became popular. In 2002 at a house party thrown by his long-time friend Greg Schroder he began formulating the ideas for Columns of Knowledge Recordings. During this time his style changed again as his friendship with James Miller Junior solidified and he began performing more hard electro house and funky techno. Traveling to Poland, Canada, all over the USA into 2004 his style evolved and MATURED. Electro-clash, nu skool breaks, and other funky elements found their way into the mix. Today Knowledge is more focused than ever... with 2 licensed cds released, 3 12inches, new directions in music, a motivated forward thinking attitude and positivity bursting in every direction there is no stopping KNOWLEDGE.
ROCKSTEADY
(Volume, Vicarious, TechnoDrome, myspace.com/djrocksteady, RI)
A Providence favorite, Rocksteady has been playing parties all over the eastern seaboard for the past 4 years. He has held down 3 different residences and played numerous rave-style events, as well as playing many after-hours events at Therapy in Providence. Currently, he has been in the studio honing his technique, and aims to have some productions released in the near future.
DAN DE SUMTHIN
(Volume Productiosn, Funky Communications, HeadSpin)
Dan has a wide selection of musical tastes; he has spun all different types of music, speed garage, new/old school breaks, drum and bass, underground hip-hop, trip-hop, French house, disco house, and swing house. While he can hang in almost any genre, house is definitively the dominant sound in his collection... and he prides himself in injecting an 80's element in his music, allowing him to stand out from the rest.
LOUNGE ::::::

VITO G
(Buckle Up Beats, Muck, Atari Safari, Zen Bar) CT
KEITH KENE
(The Classics of Formula (409) the clean up Crew, Dark Room Studios) MA
Keith Kene, started his career in 1994 as a deep house DJ and quickly developed his own floor hitting 4/4 sound of playing house. Soon after he was asked to play with one of dance music favorites, DJ/Producer Pete Moss at the widely known Paradise café in Cambridge MA. As Keith evolved as a house DJ in the mid 90’s was invited to join Caseroc and Shalako along with others to the Phoenix Landing for a weekly residency that sparked the beginnings of the now nationally known dance club in Cambridge MA. After Keith’s gig at the Phoenix Landing he successfully held down a 3 year residency at Club Hibernia with Caseroc and On Trak Production artist DJ KON hosted by Rocky Batty owner of Pimp Gear Clothing and Jon Regan of Future Classic in Downtown Boston. Keith has been asked to guest appear at most of Boston’s hottest clubs such as Axis, Karma, 33, The Middlesex, An Tua Nua, Vertigo, The Office, The Playhouse, The Paradise, Whiskey Park, The Goodlife and the list goes on. Plus showcasing at Boston boat parties along the harbor and local 600 person Redlight Production loft parties in the heart of Boston’s Chinatown hosted by Shannon Shalako. As Keith gains more respect, started DJing all around the east coast at well-known establishments. To name a few: The Lifted Parties in Vermont hosted by Josh of
capacitornetwork.com at the infamous Higher Ground, Chris from Columns of Knowledge and The well respected Clubs of Philadelphia. Shampoo and Club Fluid. Plus numerous loft parties and Raves. As the journey continues Keith has started his production in what he loves in the dance music category of his choice and is looking forward to starting his own label..
JEFF HYDE
(Candy FlipT, myspace.com/jeffhyde) NH
music link: http://waxdj.com/djs/3923/
Since making his debut in 2005, with one of the hottest parties of the year, A NEW DAWN. Jeff Hyde has firmly entrenched himself in the New England electronic dance scene. With solid performances throughout the past two years, a love for bass, and a growing desire to throw unique events, Hyde has caught the eye of many, surprised most, and is looking for some new territory to feast on. A man of very few words, Hyde speaks through his bass lines, and breathes the art of blending. Be on the look out for Jeff, and never under estimate Hyde.

ultimatly i want to play more underground house, breaks, drum n bass. and my ultimate goal is to be an all around dj.
-
I remember years ago going to Columns Of Knowledge shows down at the Hartford Civic Center and a group of dudes would come in and jack people for their shit...drugs, money, used rubbers..
when things get big enough that every one is going it can attract some of the wrong people that want to take advantage of a situation.
i guarantee that Columns of Knowledge was very aware of the problems and tried everything in their power to make every one have an enjoyable time.
-
Don't get all sandy-vagina just 'cos they bombed your thread.
lol i realy dont give a shit. they can keep bombing the post all they want. i find it quite amusing.
this isn't the first forum Ive been on. i post on many many forums and don't really care about any of them other than one reason and that's to promote. so go a head and keep trashing my post it just keeps bumping my post up to the top and promotes my night more.
what a dumb ass....lol
-
the reason why this board is a piece of shit is because of all the old fucking trolls. you chased all the users off with your annoying antics. no one can ever have a decent human conversation on here. or you just fallow certain individuals posts around or sexually harass any of the girls that are on here. that shit gets old and tends to make people stop posting. your the ones that ruined this board so stop complaining about it and do something about it. stop bickering and fighting and build relationships. how about promote the board get new users and don't harass them or mock the things they say because they are newbs. create a community of people that are into the same thing " the music" ""the scene" think about it. especially if your a dj. it doesn't look very professional to your fans if you fighting with another dj or promoter. keep it off the board and take it to a pm. the more users posting the more exposure you get to your carrier. i tell you what i would never book half the dj's on here and not due to their dj skills but just on the fact that they don't act professional.
positive energy produces growth
negative energy produces destruction

You were going to Twilo in 95?
no i didnt get to go there when it was Sound Factory, i didnt start going there till 99 so i only got to enjoy a little of the action.
-
Yo Cave,
You dj or just promote? I thought Don moved to Jersey?
I dj a bit but i dont play out because im trying to take it verry serious and i dont think im up to par yet. i think a lot of dj's play out before they are ready. your first impression is always the one that sticks. i do artist managment and thats one of my most important things that i tell other people. i do play with friends privatly. i can say i am a lot better then most people that play out already but thats just not cutting it in my eyes.
As far as i know Don and Laura still live in New Britain. Over by Ella St.
