Dark Arps has developed a unique and improvised approach to electronic music performance using hardware sequencers, modular synthesizers and effects - no laptop, software or pre-programmed content of any kind is used. A carefully-designed array of analog equipment enables the free generation of ideas in the heat of the moment, with crucial controls ergonomically placed and easily accessible by hand. With intimate knowledge and expert command of the equipment, a methodology of muscle memory and instinct has emerged, rendering the time-consuming preparation once necessary before a gig entirely obsolete. Eschewing the stage in favour of the dancefloor, he creates a truly intimate experience by placing his rig among the audience, inviting them to gather round and witness the work up-close. Charging head-first into the unknown, crafting something fresh and unique with each and every show, Dark Arps delivers an elite take on live electronic music.

Sleepy, the Salish Sea's living legacy of house and techno, brings over three decades of mastery to the decks. His journey began in the mid 90s when him and his lifelong friend Jay Zoney (Eternal Drive Recordings) were introduced to a vibrant warehouse collective. Embracing this global movement, Sleepy quickly made a name for himself with his mesmerizing blend of house and techno, entrancing audiences with driving percussion and powerful basslines.

As a trailblazer, Sleepy co-founded the legendary 25-year annual Carrington Bay Gathering, a pivotal event in Vancouver Island's underground electronic music culture. Although the gatherings have retired, his leadership has been essential in sustaining the dynamic scene, earning him the title of 'Godfather'.

Sleepy is renowned for mastering live remixing using an advanced 4-deck setup, creating unique auditory experiences with every performance. He has graced high-profile festivals like Shambhala, Electric Love, Atmosphere, Cumberland Wild, and the Pachena Bay Music Festival, as well as intimate venues alongside local legends and international techno icons - Raiz (Droid Behavior), Gary Beck (Bek Audio), and Chris Liebing (CLR).

Beyond performing, Sleepy fosters the music community through his equipment rental company, Gemini Rentals, providing emerging artists access to top-tier gear. His dedication to innovation, community building, and sustainable practices continues to elevate the electronic music experience.
