Right here, at the end of times, the cherubs will sound their trumpets and the dancefloor will become the habitation of angels.
FIRST ENOCH – EPISODE 1: ANGEL ATTACK is the beginning of a new series of raves from Impact! that celebrates rave as a form of spiritual practice, embracing the idea that the new queer enlightenment isn’t happening in churches but in night clubs, in the streets, and at parties. Join us for a themed experience where we take you through the microcosm of a rapture, from the warmth and totality of blinding euphoria to the all-encompassing release of apocalypse. When the Earth is burning underneath you, it’s time to don your wings and dance among the clouds.
Highly encouraged to show up in your most angelic attire, heavensent or fallen. Halos and horns, wings of all makes, all white or full goth, embody the celestial energy held within you and pick your side for the eternal battle.
The six trumpeters that will usher in Armageddon are:
– ALICEOFSIN is one of the founders of Impact! and the creative voice that helped me come up with First Enoch. Opening the night with a combination of pop-trance and jump-up, she’s here to crack open the gate and let the light wash over us.
– BUTTONZTHECAT is up next with a set full of high-energy tance and Hands-Up tunes that’ll lift you up off your feet. Immerse yourself in the nostalgic and up-beat as everything outside of the venue begins melting away.
– MIYA LOWE (Sacramento, fka. Evaboy/fgr sktr) is one of my favorite producers and an innovator in the realms of Bass music, from Bassline to Footwork. With a unique sound that’s cloudy, bitcrushed, and eccentric, we’ll be up in the heavens just in time to look down as the old world goes up in flames.
– Local legend BUENAVISTA takes us on the next leg of our journey with devastating Drum and Bass and banging Juke. The pillar of light pulling you up begins to fade, planting your feet back onto the ground as the totality of rapture sets in and the chaos becomes our playground.
– ECLIPSE PROJECT settles us further into the long night with a set full of dark Drum and Bass and Neurofunk. The singed air is deep and heavy, we’re in total darkness now, and with everything gone there’s endless room to step and skank away the final days.
– Olympia’s MRA9E takes us into the final wing of the evening, parting the skies with a set blending Jungle and Trance to bookend the experience. The last trumpets call above and below, it’s time to decide, will you choose to fight for Heaven or Hell?
Can’t wait to see y’all at the worlds-end dancefloor! 🤍🤍🤍
