This Saturday night be prepared for some serious dnb mayhem as Local Motion and Elementz join forces to present the devastating talents of DJ Optiv and DJ Pots. With Melbourne's dnb scene currently coming together in a big way Michelle caught up with Elementz front man Roger for a quick q&a.

Why did the two forces Elementz and Localmotion come together- What are the advantages of joining forces-
As the saying goes two headz are better than one. It definitely helps the scene to grow when the crews work together. Workload is also shared equally which is a good thing.

What do you have lined up for the evening-
DJs' one's gonna be a caner! Better known for their 'techsteppin' sounds, DJ OPTIV(C4C) + POTS (Bulletproof) have already warned that they will be travelling with a barrage of phat dubs. Quality beatz will be on the agenda with support coming from Fletch, Seven Blanco, JPS, SKAM + MC Danyellsun.

What sort of reaction do you hope to inspire in your crowd-
All I care is that everyone present is havin' a F#@ken good time!

Why should people come to this event-
DJ Optiv & Pots are the future of Drum & Bass and are already recognised worldwide for their work as DJs & producers. Doorprices for this one is only $25 compared to other recent international gigs, expect nothing but friendly faces, good vibes and wicked tunes!!

What are you most looking forward to on the night-
When the bass kicks in @ 11pm!! There will be additional sound/subs on the night so expect the bass to get heeeeaaaavvvvyyy!

How healthy is the local dnb scene at the moment-
It's really good. A few crews in da scene doin' their own thing (promoters/ DJs/producers) and getting D N B to a bigger audience. 2003 looks like a good year for Melbourne dnb.

What does Elementz have in store for dnb fans down the track-
Currently we run a mthly local movement @ Deep 11 called BASSIX. It is on every 3rd Sat of the month and showcases our local & interstate talents. A few big name internationals are also being planned up till July. We're also working on a new website and getting ourselves more involved in production. Busy!

DJ Optiv & DJ Potz play at the Portland Hotel this Saturday
Tickets $25 - Don't miss it!!!
