Bubblin is a sublime monthly dance party in Portland, OR founded by resident DJ’s Lincolnup and Ben Tactic. The veteran DJs met in late 2009 at a Gant Man show and bonded over their shared love of music emerging from the mutant funky, house, garage/post-dubstep continuum. From there they decided to establish Bubblin, which has emerged as the Pacific Northwest’s first, finest, and definitive club night featuring forward thinking sounds. As proven through ahead of the curve bookings such as Roska, Ghosts on Tape, Dubbel Dutch, and Distal, Bubblin’ is about bringing the freshest dancefloor sounds of yesterday, today, and tomorrow to the dancing masses.
Bubblin is honored to be combining with Decibel to present an evening of up to the time and timeless sounds featuring the Pacific Northwest debut of Detroit Wunderkind Kyle Hall (Wild Oats, FXHE, Hyperdub). Embodying the ethos of Bubblin with his adventurous, funky, and deep production excursions into house music, Hall is an artist that truly stands at the crossroads of past, present, and future modern dancefloor sounds. Mentored from a young age by Detroit Deep House OG’s Rick Wilhite and Mike Huckaby, Hall has issued lauded releases on acclaimed imprints FXHE, Hyperdub, Warp, and his own Wild Oats label. Since his first release on FXHE in 2007, Hall has demonstrated an adept ability to honor his deep Detroit roots whilst expressing his own novel and evolving style. With rousing, infectious, and enthusiastically received DJ sets at world class events and venues, ranging from DEMF to Fabric to Panorama Bar, Kyle Hall is on a rapid and steady ascent to the upper reaches of dance music consciousness.
