EVOL INTENT (drum&bass/Atl,USA) - Thursday SEPTEMBER 21/06 @ GECKO CLUB
HEAVY Vol.2 - THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 21 / 2006 @ The Gecko Club
Future Roots , Rype Entertainment and Boodang Music Canada proudly present North America's hottest drum & bass act in their first ever Vancouver appearance! EVOL INTENT Human Imprint / Renegade Hardware / Barcode / Evol Intent Recs Atlanta , Usa www.evolintent.com EVOL INTENT BIO: Over the last few years, Evol Intent has emerged as one of the leading forces in the global Drum and Bass movement. Both as a label and as a production trio, Evol Intent are considered some of the biggest up and coming talents in the entire dnb industry. Hailing from Atlanta, Georgia the crew consists of Knick, Gigantor and The Enemy. Apart from being a production outfit, Evol Intent also owns and operates their own label, which functions as an outlet for their own work as well as like-minded artists. Knick and Gigantor started Evol Intent Recordings in 2000. The Enemy joined the two quickly after they met through the Internet soon after the label was formed. After finishing school, the Enemy moved to Atlanta to devote more time and attention to Evol Intent, both as a crew and as a label. The first three releases on Evol Intent were driven by a passion to release their own music and were, for the most part, distributed by themselves in true DIY fashion. Furthermore, their punk rock roots continue to shine through to this day with projects such as home-based screen-printing and grass roots sticker campaigns. After building an underground following with their first 3 releases, Evol Intent began to get some attention from distributors, both in the USA and overseas. They wound up signing a deal with ALPHA MAGIC to handle their distribution for Evol Intent Recordings. Soon after, Evol Intent caught the eye of the award winning and historic dnb label, Renegade Hardware. Hardware had just launched a new label and they were interested in new material from Evol Intent for the label (Barcode records). After their first release with Barcode, Hardware was quick to snatch up Evol Intent and offer them an exclusive deal as permanent artists on the roster. Around the same time, legendary US dj Dieselboy approached the Evol Intent trio to do a remix for his upcoming cd, "The Dungeon Masters Guide." Upon completion of the remix, Dieselboy asked Evol Intent to do yet another remix for the cd, but this time he asked them to remix a song from a legendary producer known as BT. Again this year , the trio was called upon by Dieselboy to mix the hugely successful "Human Resource" cd showcasing the label's finest releases. Beyond all of the hard work they have put in to their music in the last year, Evol Intent are showing no signs of slowing down any time soon. They have had releases on labels such as Renegade Hardware, Human Imprint, Outbreak Records and of course, Evol Intent Recordings and they have many plans for both their own label and others as well. 2006 has been a huge year with the release of the first Evol Intent EP, debuting on Renegade Hardware, as well as countless releases on their own Evol Intent Recordings imprint and having been nominated for Best Breaks/DnB Track at the International Dance Music Awards for their track "Street Knowledge" from the Police State EP. On September 21 , find out why this crew has been causing a storm on the international scene as the Evol Intent sound invades Vancouver to tear down the dancefloor in a true heavyweight fashion!

They have never been in BC before period.
That show did not happen because a friend of theirs had border issues that restricted said friend from entering the country and the show was cancelled. Evol Intent has NO border issues and WILL be at The Gecko Club on Thursday Sep 21. Make sure you grab your tickets as this one is going to fill up fast!!!:) Last edited by slim pickins; Aug 13, 06 at 11:54 AM. |

You don't need a visa to get into canada from the US. Plus it wasn't Evol Intent themselves that had a problem at the border.
