        "The second generation of local musicians, including Kit Clayton,
Jhno, Sutekh, Bre-ad, Twerk, and Blectum from Blechdom, has helped expand
the parameters of a once soothing, narcotic sound. This more urgent music,
which is now emerging from both generations, reflects the environmental
makeup of a less raved-out, happy-faced time. 

        ...When musicians Bre-ad, Sutekh, Re-ach, Quantum 23, and Darin
Marshall opened the Static Club in 1997, a venue was erected for the
promotion of a changing, still indefinable sound... The Static manifesto
best explains the goals of this new generation of composers and DJs:

        "Long before gold-digging venture capitalists brought economic
prosperity to the Bay Area, one measure of urban creativity were renegade
parties. Happening in warehouses, homesteads, or the concrete expanse,
they served as a good indication that night life did not depend on the
edicts of club owners ... Renegade parties were unpredictably fun, and
club life, well, was left to bored business droids and lonely-hearts.
Static realizes those days are gone (i.e. thankfully, raving is dead) but
the music which spawned a fascination with beats and sounds is far from
over."
