Bear Essentials 

Bear Essentials EP3 Mixed by Atnarko

Born in bear country on the Atnarko River in Northern Canada, Atnarko channels his inner bear as he deejays and produces hypnotic dance music straight from the heart of the beast. Atnarko is considered a legend of the underground house music scene in the south. He is known for his DJ sets that extend into the wee hours of the morning, taking adventurous partygoers deep into his musical den.

He also produced some of the early breaks records that defined the genre as it was emerging. These include the classic, “Tunnel Vision,” cited as an early influence by Maceo Plex, among others. As his career developed, he went on to produce many records and moved into other genres, most notably house and techno. With close to 200 releases appearing on a wide variety of labels, Atnarko’s paw prints are firmly planted in dance music.

His label, Infiltr8:Celebr8, continues to set the pace for underground events in Orlando, booking dance music friends and heroes with great success, expanding, and elevating the city’s culture. He continues to walk this path, playing and producing music he loves, regardless of boundaries. Atnarko has told his musical story far and wide over his long career and he would love to tell it to you.

As one of Firestone's original resident DJs, Scott helped solidify the prominence of this incredible club in the history of Orlando's vibrant scene. This page is set up as a celebration of the music of that time and highlight some of the music that inspired the era.

In the beginning, there was the Dr's of Rhythm, and the Dr's of Rhythm had a groove.

And from this groove came the groove of all grooves.

And while one day viciously throwing down on their turntables, the Dr's of Rhythm boldy declared,

"Let there be HOUSE!"
"Let there be DEEP HOUSE!"
"Let there be ACID JAZZ!!"
"Let there be NU JAZZ!"
"Let there be NU SKOOL!"
"Let there be OLD SCHOOL!"
"Let there be WORLD BEAT!"
"Let there be BREAKBEAT!"

and Our Style was born...

"We are, you see,

We are the creators, and this is our Style!

And, in our Style there are many Styles of music.

But, we are not so selfish because once you enter our house it then becomes OUR house and OUR house music!"

And, you see, no one man or woman owns house because house music is a universal language, spoken and understood by all.

You see, house is a feeling that no one can understand really unless you're deep into the vibe of house.

House is an uncontrollable desire to jack your body.

And, as I told you before, this is our house and our house music.

And in every house, you understand, there is a keeper.

And, in this house, the keepers are the Dr's of Rhythm.

Now some of you who might wonder,

"Who are the Dr's of Rhythm, and what is it that the Dr's of Rhythm do?"

The Dr's of Rhythm are the ones who give you the power to jack your body.

The Dr's of Rhythm are the ones who give you the power to do the snake.

The Dr's of Rhythm are the ones who give you the key to the wiggly worm.

The Dr's of Rhythm are the ones who taught you how to walk your body.

The Dr's of Rhythm are the ones that can bring nations and nations of all groovers together under one house.

And this is fresh!!
