Lt. Light aka DARK FADER is a DJ of mystery. Cast to the shadows of Vancouver's Electronic Music scene. He watches. Recognized, but unknown to most. A Dj of great talent and endless passion. The Lieutenant has paid his dues.

Journeying deep into the rhythmic tones of many a producer, spending countless hours digging for and listening to tracks at local record shops. Not to mention the MP3's. His music collection is diverse; tribal, progressive, deep, trancey, are a few words to describe his style of Progressive House/Breaks, Euro Trance, Techno and Ambience.

A DJ since 1999 Chris has played numerous clubs, parties and after hours throughout Western Canada. Discovered by Phoenix Olivia in 2002, Chris was asked to join the “Soldiers of the Underground”, a collective of conscious artists dedicated to musical expression using all mediums of instrumentation.

An intriging performer, to see Chris DJ live is a magical experience. Always on the mix, deeply focused and entranced. Channeling mind melting mixes of digital soundscapes. Rolling and tribal, his music comes alive. Chanting, pulsing, raw with emotion. He stands a cosmic messenger, conducting a symphony of tones. His love for the music radiates as he opens his mind and heart to audience.

As with most DJ's, time eventually led him to the studio and for the last two years Chris has been learning about track composition. Collaborating with his long-time friend Adin Bennet, an audio technician that has worked on compositions for the Juno award winning TV show "Cold Squad". Their first track "To Be" created Under the alias “A-Bomb and DARK FADER” at “The Bomb Shelter” the studio designed by Haven Siguenza and Adin, along with Chris's track "Savier" was featured on the Soldiers of the Underground compilation CD "Passion" which was released in Spring 2004.

In his free time Chris enjoys exploring nature, Creative Visualizing through meditation or thrashing the streets of Vancity, rockin’ hi-tops on his “deluxe” skateboard with his pal “B”. Lt.Light has found his true path. With endless waves of knowledge on the horizon, Chris is looking to the future with an open mind and an open heart. Embracing the moments as they arrive, he remains focused and dedicated to the music he loves...

SEROTONIN

I can't wait for this one. It's been a long time since I've been offered a chance to play a full trance set. I'm definately going to play a couple classics :) Thanks Mirka. Be shure to check out the newly re-worked Soldiers of the Underground website: www.soldiermusic.net for info on their new progressive night at Lick, Uprising series, and Halloween party 'Bitches Brew". :+=

This is definately something I'll have to get my ass to! If you've never seen either of these guys play I suggest making it out to this night, they are gauranteed to blow you away! Serotonin never ceases to amaze me and I unfortunately haven't seen Dark Fader in a long while :(, to have them play together a 3 HOUR SET is going to be a treat!

Nice one! :)
