The Proper Movement crew was kind enough to give me 2 hours of stage time, just because I had a birthday a few days before.  Bouncing between light and heavy, this is a great example of how varied the new sounds of Drum & Bass are.  Download if you like, and enjoy!

Hip Hoppy Birthday 2025

A short-but-sweet recording of my set from the first of what will hopefully become a monthly Ambient Drum & Bass night at The Liquor Store in Portland, Oregon.

All the performers played a half hour set and then another 15 minute set later in the evening, hence the fade-out>silence>fade-in at around the 23 minute mark.


Live At Liquid (April 23, 2015)

Recorded on August 8, 2024 in Tygh Valley, Oregon.

Performing from 10pm - midnight on Saturday night, I didn't think that super mellow music would be right for a time when people are on their way up.  I wanted my listeners to ride that line between meditative and "shake your booty".  

Suggested for maximum enjoyment:
1. Turn the lights down.
2. Get comfy - with dance space, just in case!
3. Bump it.




I'd recommend not reading below this line until you've listened first.

Process.PDX One Year - Moussa b2b Silpher

My "Friday mid-afternoon in the courtyard" set at the beloved raver's retreat / birthdays party that is Forest Friends.

Of note: the remastered Dom & Roland tracks.  Both are special to me because they comprise my very first D&B record.  It was a very quiet pressing, and by now even more so, because I've played it so many times over the decades.  So, it's nice to have an aural upgrade.
Also: I like Coco Bryce!  Evidently, based on how often I play his stuff.  :P

::--Tracklist--::
1	Dom & Roland	"Interstellar Subs"
2	Eijer	"Space Freak"
3	Djrum	"Codex"
4	Rainforest Calculon Arietta	"Dub Busters"
5	Coco Bryce	"Saliva"

Live at OODE XX

Playing tracks for people, helping to illuminate the path to better music, has been Silpher's passion ever since he started making Industrial and EBM mix tapes with a single cd player and tape deck, early in his teens.  

In the fall of 1992, Silpher discovered the Oregon rave scene.  It was love at first sight, reorienting his focus directly on everything related to Electronic Dance Music, starting with helping to found the University of Oregon's campus radio station (KWVA), as the Electronic Music Director.  Since then, in addition to consistently introducing his listeners to the outlying frontiers of Electronic Dance Music, Silpher has promoted events, owned and operated a ServoDrive / Sound Physics Labs sound system (Stylus Systems), owned and managed a record store (Stylus Grooves), designed party flyers, and is always down to teach anyone how to spin records.

The electronic dance music scene is in Silpher's blood, and he can't see ever living without it.

Currently, Silpher resides in Portland, OR, making sound systems sound better.
