ABOUT GLITCH.BASS
Come early for a quick dive into Mesh Networks, a glimpse of invisible systems humming beneath the everyday. Then we shift into Bass Dragon Qigong, tuning the body's hardware before the voltage hits.
From there the room fractures open into a curated stream of glitch-coded rhythms, sub-bass architecture, and kinetic release with music from ALIA, AAYA, and warble, punctuated by Agatron’s precision dancework.
Thread the bassline through shifting corridors of signal and shadow. Follow the pulse into the glitch, where the air hums, the floor vibrates, and every beat feels like a passage into a deeper layer of the night, where the signals mesh like stray nanocode and the first trace of an insurrection begins to compile.
When the floor gets hot, drift into the Chaiberpunk Tea Terminal, a quiet node where conversations spool out like stray packets in a decentralized network.
REVIEW OF GLITCH.BASS 2049
"As I walked in, the venue unfolded before me, a swarm of unseen nanoprinters compiling its contours in real time. People moved with the fluid, incremental logic you see in evolving systems; simple gestures stacking into something unexpectedly intricate. The bass pushed the crowd forward, glitch artifacts recalibrating their movements, enhancing kinetic precision and nudging divergent pathways into coherence."

ARTIST BIOS
AAYA
Originally from Egypt and Kuwait and now based in NorCal for the past 11 years, Aaya began producing electronic music while studying cognitive neuroscience at UC-Berkeley. She immediately fell in love with it, and has spent the last several years developing her musical style while exploring various sound design and production methods, as well as DJing. Aaya’s passion for sound design has allowed her to create a unique sonic space, as she carves all her sounds from scratch. She incorporates cutting edge bass design methods and otherworldly spaces, expressing that which is intangible. In doing so, she weaves together a tapestry of intricate edits, catchy leads, and hard-hitting basslines.

ALIA
ALIA has a global following as an Electronic Music Producer, DJ, Vocalist, and Producer of the musical project, Feminine Medicine™. Inspired by the global sacred bass movement, her music is an evocative, lush journey into her own blend of bass-heavy electronic dance beats, melodic frequencies, gorgeous feminine voices, conscious lyrics, and sacred psychedelic sounds. Described as feminine and fierce, elegant and gritty, ethereal and primal, her music unfolds in a pulsing, hypnotic journey that moves both bodies and hearts.

warble
warble (oshan anand) has spent thirty years being shaped by sound, wild and wondrous signal shapes cutting, layering, and bending him, changing the way he moved. His style pulls from dub’s depth, folk tradition’s memory, and the open architecture of post-genre electronics, stitching them together into something designed to mutate dancers, opening new angles in the body and trajectories of escape from the mind.

Bass Dragon Qigong with Sean T Fox
Sean T Fox is a Daoist Minister, Hatha Yoga teacher, and White Tiger Medical Qigong instructor with over fifteen years immersed in internal arts, body mechanics, and energy work distilled into precise, adaptable, and quietly powerful practice. His studies in the Sun and Moon Mysteries and Shentara give him a rare fluency in how breath, structure, and frequency interact, especially when pushed into unfamiliar terrain. For Glitch.Bass, Sean is bringing Bass Dragon Qigong—a hybrid protocol where traditional medical qigong meets low-end resonance, tuning the body like responsive hardware and dropping participants into a deeper, more refined mode of movement.
