Rain Nightclub inside the Palms Casino Resort welcomes BASSNECTAR on Saturday, March 3, for an exclusive Las Vegas performance as part of his Vava Voom Tour 2012.

Bassnectar, born Lorin Ashton, is a freeform electronic music and dubstep artist, DJ, and producer, well-known for his energizing live performances and engaging light shows. Whether performing at an intimate club or at a major festival, Bassnectar energizes audiences with an experience unlike any other.

“We are very excited to bring Bassnectar to the Palms for an exclusive Las Vegas engagement,” said Jon Gray, Senior Vice President and General Manager of 9 Group Las Vegas.  “Rain Nightclub is the perfect venue to showcase his talent for the thousands of people he will draw.”

A performance by Bassnectar can be described as an open-sourced musical project that is as diverse as it is heavy, as raw as it is meticulous, and as fierce as it is imaginary. Spanning the spectrum of sonic style, the music covers every genre imaginable and smashes it all into a synthesis of intense, wobbling bass lines and hypnotic soundscapes. Whether remixing, collaborating, writing, DJing, performing live, or working on constant social networking, Bassnectar’s music is the lure and social impact is the sincere intention.

Through his self-run Amorphous Music label and Bassnectar Labs studio, Ashtin has remixed/collaborated with the likes of KRS-One, Perry Farrel, Fever Ray, Spearhead, STS9, Buckethead, Tappa Zuki, and Zumbi of Zion I; as well as various remix projects with producers such as Z-trip, Diplo, BT,6Blocc, DJ Vadim, and RJD2.

Along the way, the Bassnectar has headlined stops at some of the most noted venues in the country, touring with his own custom rig by PK Sound. After a long line of sellout shows, Bassnectar never fails to gather monster crowds on the festival circuit. Some of his most celebrated sets took place at the nation’s top festivals including Coachella, Lollapalooza, ACL, Bonnaroo and Ultra Music Festival.

Tickets for Bassnectar’s performance at Rain Nightclub start at $40. To purchase tickets and for more information, visit www.n9negroup.com. For more information on Bassnectar, visit www.bassnectar.net and www.facebook.com/bassnectar.
