DV8
Cleveland OH
DJ DV8 has been spinning in and around Cleveland, Ohio since 2001. He made his
festival debut in NYC at Endless Night 2005. Despite being largely type-cast into
old-school goth & deathrock roles, he takes pride in his exceptionally diverse
taste in music and unparalleled CD collection. This gives him great flexibility to
adapt his style to compliment that of his co-DJs, and the ability to shift genres at
breakneck speed without trainwrecking. He believes new music is the lifeblood
of the scene, and spends countless hours each week digging up new artists to
add to his setlists.

Gothic/Industrial/EBM night.

DJ
Nitez
New Haven CT
For over 2 years DJ
Nitez has been spinning across the east coast as an
underground goth/raver DJ. Since mid 2004 he has been working
his way through raves and goth events including Gothstock,

fest", and various events with east coast's Breaksteal

showing his talents in other places as well. Currently
Nitez is juggling his DJ career as well as his live
performance career (which also includes a secret side project Nitez
is currently working on). Nitez personal style is harsh
techno-industrial so expect some high energy dark industrial
beats.
