"Across the expanse of time existed a place so rich in amphibious lifeforms that it continued to challenge and mystify its invaders well into the surrounding planetary transformation. An order of diviners had predicted this place would shapeshift, changing its identity and turning on those who continued to shelter in its dense core. However, that never happened. Even as the invaders seeked to halt, divert, and capture the place's energy arteries and flows, its integrity held, buoyed by the impossible fecundity of unruly life itself. The place's offspring penetrated the minds and paralyzed the bodies of the invaders themselves who realized that their brutal fetishes and charms would inevitably decompose. As that suffocating superstructure fell, its limbs were swallowed, becoming one with the very place it had sought to dismember and destroy."

Peace Portal began as a way to document the sounds of the growing dance music scene in the Pacific Northwest from the small but noisy town of Bellingham, Washington.

Over it's course, Peace Portal has grown into an outlet for underground dance music from the Pacific Northwest, down the West Coast, and beyond through broadcasts on three non-commercial radio stations, feature write-ups and interviews on the Peace Portal blog, new music premieres from up and coming West Coast artists, and parties.‍‍

We work in the dark. We do what we can to battle the evil that would otherwise destroy us. But if a man's character is his fate, this fight is not a choice but a calling. Yet sometimes the weight of this burden causes us to falter, breaching the frazzled fortress of our mind, allowing the monsters without to turn within. We are left alone staring into the abyss; into the laughing face of madness.
