Outta nowhere, Cause & Effect agrees to Portland date!
Presale ticket purchase information below.
Veteran electro-pop duo ‘Cause and Effect’ are coming to Portland on October 18th, in support of their new album ‘ARTIFICIAL CONSTRUCT’ and new AA side single for the songs ‘HAPPY?’ and ‘HAPPINESS IS ALIEN.’ The upcoming single/remix EP entitled ‘THE HAPPINESS? EP’ is out September 20th, and features remixes of both tracks which are already making waves and being added in clubs and radio-mix shows across the US and the UK!
If you ever “clubbed” in the 90′s you’ll certainly remember Cause and Effect’s impact to the club scene with their early hit’s like ‘You Think You Know Her,’ ‘Another Minute, and ‘It’s Over Now.’ Or perhaps, their 2004 Billboard club hit “Into the light.”
Well, C&E are still going strong with a new album , a new single EP, and a new tour. ‘ARTIFICIAL CONSTRUCT’ is the bands fifth studio album and continues the C&E tradition of combining thoughtful lyrics delivered with presence and positivity atop lush and often times danceable electronic soundscapes. They are most certainly one of Missionary’s favorite live performances and one of the most professional acts we’ve gotten to work with. So wild that we’re going to get to see them again!
(You can read the full C+E Bio here)
Joining C&E will be local favorites Dead When I Found Her from the label ArtOfFact Records…http://dwifh.com/home/
And recently back from Japan, Lakeshore Driving! http://www.lakeshore-driving.com/

Presale is on for Assemblage 23 and Komor Kommando 08.24.2011 @ The Fez!
Imagine the pure talent and creativity of two of our scene’s masterminds sharing the same stage, on the same night! On August 24th Missionary Promotions and Corrosion Records presents Assemblage 23 and Komor Kommando at the Fez Ballroom. Special guests tonight Remote Music’s Monody.
Near 500 days ago Tom Shear brought Assemblage 23 to the packed floor of the Fez Ballroom. This time Portland welcomes them back with none other than Sebastian Komor’s Komor Kommando! I feel silly even noting this but Sebastian Komor’s name is written all over acts such as Icon of Coil, Zombie Girl, Bruderschaft, Squarehead and more. This is going to get ridiculous.
Opening and the night and finishing with the A23/KK afterparty is DJ Encrypted (Virus, Ultragroove, Encrypted Promotions) There will not be a dull moment the entire night. Welcome to das oontz!
Doors open and drinks pour at 8pm on Wednesday night, August 24th. Arriving early maximizes the night. Get the party going with all your friends and maybe grab something to eat off the Fez’s menu.
Tickets? The Mesh, Iris, Devision show saw the first time Missionary had ever offered direct purchase ticket sales and it was huge success for everyone. We’ve decided to do this again. Presale tickets can be purchased via paypal by using the button below. You are purchasing direct from Missionary Promotions(There will be a $1 service fee per ticket. This is a significant savings against commercial ticket sellers we’ve used previously)
IMPORTANT: Please click on Paypal’s “note to seller” button and include the first and last name of each ticket holder as they are “will call” So if you’re purchasing multiple tickets, don’t be the butthole friend that messes it up. Remember it’s an A23 and KK show on the line here! Here is what the note to seller link looks like.
Yeah, can’t wait? Neither can we!

So listen up!
Tomorrow tickets will be $20 at the door to those 21 and up and $5250 to those under 21 (we’ll figure it out). After 4:00pm tomorrow there will be no hope of getting advanced purchase. To purchase in advance NOW you must paypal direct to Missionary Promotions at eidsvik@gmail.com. You must also include the ticket holders names. No exceptions.We were notified that Corrosion Records had 19 paper tickets left at 7:40pm today. That was stated by a fan who called ahead as he was going down there to buy 2 for himself.
New monthly club night, VIRUS opens Saturday, May 14th.
Are you tired of the same old songs? Do you wish that you could hear that one song DJ’s never play by that overplayed artist? Do you mutter to yourself about how you wish DJ’s focused on NEW music by artists you never heard of?
Do you remember when you went clubbing to hear music you didn’t already know forwards and backwards?
Do you like to dance, drink, and socialize with people who are progressive about music, like you are?
[VIRUS] is for you.
Our opening night will be the beginning of something you wish could happen daily…except for the fact that you would fall into debt from not working and you would starve from not eating.
Because we love you, we’re only monthly.
Nothing we play will be older than 3 years. We promise.
Come dance with us on Saturday, May 14th at the Ash Street Saloon. $5 cover and the doors open at 9pm to those over 21.
Yes! Mesh, De/vision and Iris are coming to Portland!
Due to factors outside their control, we were told that Mesh would not continue to Seattle and Portland. Nooooo! However Bekka, working with their management, found a way to make it work and for a Saturday night no less! So now Portland will be Mesh’s last stop on the West coast for the 2011 Legends of Synthpop Tour! Plan on welcoming many of Mesh’s fans from Seattle at this truly amazing show!

After 6.5 years, we say goodnight to Dementia
I remember Bekka and I visiting a couple of other clubs in Portland years back. I remember meeting Liz and Cedric for the first time at IC Mummy but it was Dementia alone that settled us in the Portland Scene. We always arrived terribly early, certain we’d taken over someone’s table and stayed for near 6 years. Dementia has taken on many forms and been in many locations since its inception but it’s always been genuine and always from the heart.
Of course there is some sadness in saying goodbye. We’re not saying you’ll never see the name again but this exit really allows us to move forward with new ideas, some of which are already in play. It’s in voids like this that new nights and new talent emerges. Growth!
Dementia has been home to dj’s NoN, Carrion, Wrexx, Zufall, Valence, Nevermore, Medusa, Mohawk Adam, Encrypted, Monika.mhz, Missionary and many others. Thousands of hours of industrial dance music has been spun from its booth. Thousands!
Dementia began with the Dark Alice in Wonderland Ball and Read the rest of this entry »
