Kill the Noise Hits Ocean Club, Show Preview

By Mike H

For anyone with knowledge of the Boston electronic music scene, it is no secret that the hottest venue of the summer has, without a shred of doubt, been Quincy's Ocean Club at Marina Bay. Having played host to some of the industry's top DJs, from Armin van Buuren, to Pretty Lights, and many in between, OC has no plans of slowing down any time soon.

Up next in the parade of EDM all-stars to grace the decks at Ocean Club is American drum and bass icon, Jake Stanczak, aka Kill the Noise. It's been a busy year for KTN, having made stops at some of America's major festivals, including EDC Las Vegas and Ultra Music festival, and Electric Forest. Unlike many artists, whose acclaim is reached through the release of numerous singles and promotions, KTN has garnered much of his notoriety through internet buzz based on his numerous remixes and bootlegs of major dance tracks, many of which are available on his soundcloud. Also available on his soundcloud are his collaborations with superstars such as 12th Planet and Skrillex ("Right On Time"), as well as fan favorite, Dillon Francis ("Dill the Noise").

While many of Ocean Club's headliners have been members of the EDM mainstream, mostly major house and dubstep artists, Kill the Noise is the first major drum and base artist to bring his talents to the South Shore. Although the average Ocean Clubber may not be terribly well-versed in the art of raging to drum and base, we're sure that this will be one hell of a show, and we can't wait to see all of your beautiful faces in attendance tonight!!

Stay tuned to the EDMBoston calendar of events for all of Boston's upcoming events!
