Lineup and details for Bohemian Grove on Saturday 18th February 2012
Bohemian Grove is all about hearing good electronic music in friendly, comfortable surroundings with like minded people.
Starting the new year off with Chicago native Sean Hernandez AKA Chicago Skyway....

Sean grew up on Chicagos North Side to a perfect storm of musical influences: While his father was a rock/punk musician, his mother loved disco and throughout the neighborhood, Puerto Rican music played around the clock.
As he grew older, Sean was electrified by the legendary WBMX radio mixes, which were cultivating an entire generation of Chicago DJs, producers and dance music fans. It wasnt long before he found his way to fabled nightclub Medusas and signed his name on the dotted line.
Obsessed with the house sound, Sean studied how it was made, first buying turntables, then a TR-909 drum machine, then skipping meals in order to buy more gear. He recalls spending hours attempting to recreate Ron Trents Altered States, Larry Heards Beyond the Clouds and Adoniss No Way Back, trying to figure out what made these songs funk.
He quickly became a regular fixture on the DJ scene, blending deep house with disco and Detroit techno. In the mid-90s, he organized the hugely popular night Kream. Cajmere appeared frequently, often debuting the latest Relief Records releases, along with Gene Farris and Spencer Kinsey (aka Gemini). In the late 90s, Sean formed the crew Krush Productions to revitalize the underground scene with a slew of well-received events.
He has since retired from event promotion in favour of producing tracks under the name Chicago Skyway. In 2009, he released two albums including Bells on Eargasmic Recordings and Heavens on M>O>S Recordings. More recently the Lager EP on M>O>S and his Londinium EP on Uzuri have been causing quite a stir.
Add to that his set at last years Freerotation festival being one of the weekends highlights and a top notch podcast for the guys at Little White Earbuds it's easy to see that 2011 was a great year for Sean.
