Scott Everett began DJing in the spring of 1993, inspired
by what he had experienced in the San Francisco rave scene. It was around
this time that Mother Earth Sound System formed, with djs Brad (now with Moontribe),
Stonie (now with Cloud Factory),
Whitsitt, and Scott Everett, and an ever-growing collective of MCs, live musicians,
dancers, visual & graphic artists. They began to do free outdoor parties
in the Bay Area, collaborating with Harmony,
Cloud Factory, Friends
& Family, SPAZ,
Your Sisters House,
and Gateway. Through these events events, MESS became a respected part of
the SF underground. Scott has played alongside such guests as Tony, Josh,
the Hardkiss Brothers, Markie, and Spun.
In 1995, Whitsitt and Scott Everett hit the road on an impromptu US tour,
playing with the Hazy Daze Collectif in Dallas, Organized Chaos Halloween
massive in Austin, a Mardi Gras warehouse party, and other assorted bar and
club gigs. In the fall of 1996, MESS arrived in Boulder and immediately began
working with the Humble Souls collective, who incidentally also had their
roots in the Bay Area. During the summer, they do Sunday afternoon Sunset
Gatherings, and Full Moons: free, outdoors, and open to all. In addition to
playing at the collective's events, Scott has played with Kallisti
Kollectif, Trust, Yellow
69, Vibe Mechanix, Vortex, Spacedub,
and Mountain
Raves. He has held weekly residencies at Soma,
Hunan Garden, Bangkok Lounge, and 15 Degrees, and has been featured at the
Fox, Tulagis, 32
Degrees, Panasia, Hapa, Red Fish, Dance West, Motion Underground, the Root,
and the Snake Pit.
Scotts DJ sets can encompass many genres, tempos and moods, but always
stay deeply unique and eclectic. He is a Colorado favorite best known for
seamlessly fusing techno, trance, and house, with a strong emphasis on melody,
rhythm, atmosphere, and innovative programming. Taking inspiration from Detroit
techno, SF psychedelic house, dub, funk, ambient, industrial, jazz, and classic
garage/disco, his sets consistently challenge the listener while retaining
a solid groove throughout.
"What we call music in our everyday language is only
a miniature from that music of harmony of the whole universe which is working
behind everything, and which is the source and origin of nature. It is because
of this that the wise of all ages have considered music to be a sacred art.
For in music the seer can see the picture of the whole universe."
-Hazrat Inayat Kahn
