Bio:

CHRISTA WELLS - vocalization

KENT HALVORSEN - Rhodes, keys, keybass

KEVIN SAWKA - Drums, programming, keys, keybass

The music is an electronic blend of sultry soul, hypnotic melodies and breakbeat | drum-n-bass PERFOMED LIVE!

Dabouge spawned from the band KJ SAWKA. Christa Wells, Kent Halvorsen and Kevin (KJ) Sawka decided to take the band into a new direction and give it a new name. Dabouge was born.

The music still has the thick, rich club vibes of KJ SAWKA but with a broader approach to melodies, vocals and popular song arrangements. Thus, giving Dabouge a new audience, culture & sound.

Sub Connectors was a smash single of of KJ Sawka's debut album "Synchronized Decompression", which was a 1 Single on the global Seattle Radio Station KEXP, where it stayed at the top of their electronic charts for all of January 2007.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Review From The Stranger:

"KJ Sawka (Dabouge) are Seattle's answer to Roni Size's Reprazent... this group has been raising pulse rates, body temperatures and libidos at full tilt for the last year or so. Its about time they sign to a substantial label that can spread their remarkable sound to the hinterlands of our grate [sic] nation and beyond. If anybody's gonna put Roland Drum Machines out of business its the Squarepusher-esque Mr. Sawka" Dave Segal | The Stranger |

BIG HIGH performs live @ the High Dive in fremont this Friday! Check it out!


Here's a review of the band from the infamous Dennis Cook of Jambase.com:
A touch too punchy to make the morning offerings, I stumbled in and got WOKE THE FUCK UP by Big High, a local hard rock ensemble and friends to Flowmotion that struck a first impression akin to my first mind-blowing Drunk Horse gig. Like Oakland's steel-plated punk-boogie juggernaut, Big High aren't screwing around and it wasn't a whole tune before I was shaking like a madman close to the stage. Killer tunes, a crazy tight band and a lead singer (Mesa on "vocal flyfishing") possessed of a fathomless bottom and high reachin' top end plus a leaping, fiercely engaging stage presence, and well Big High sorta rocked my widdle world. It's serious heavy muscle that puts a lil' anger and sex in your bloodstream, culminating in a frighteningly good cover of The Who's "Baba O'Riley" delivered in Dr. John style feather masks for no good reason except to be delightfully weird. If you're feeling Clutch, Parlor Mob or just dig quality hard rock you're missing out if you don't get to know Big High.
At the end of their set I bellowed, quite uncontrollably, "We're awake now, motherfuckers!" Meant it, too.
