Re:mission returns once again, this time at the Attic, with Russian DJ/Producer Proket. Born in Norilsk, Russia in 1986 he began making electronic music in 2001 & instantly took a liking it to it. It wasn't long until he started getting good feedback and recognition from well-known Russian producers and DJs such as Sta, Profit, Sunchase & Cyb Orc (Illuminati). Proket formed Prode with friends Denix, Roland & Feom around 2002.

In 2003 Proket remixed a tune called "Let It Be" by the Estonian producer Bad MF with vocals by Bad Girl. The track became a huge success and was played on a number of radio stations throughout Russia & Ukraine.

In 2004 Prode and Logical collaborated on 2 tunes: El Nino & Breakage, signed by Recon Recordings & getting played by Raiden, Optiv, Lethal & Khanage, Profit, Pyro & many others. El Nino also got featured heavily in dogsonacid.com charts. Later, another collaboration between Prode & Logical called Dooms Day was picked by Dylan for his label Freak Recordings giving Proket his first release by a major label. It would not be his last.

In 2005 Proket sent Raiden a tune called proportion, and it became the one of the first signings to Raiden's label, Offkey Recordings, highly regarded as the label that started techno influenced Drum & Bass and a label that would push Proket the most.

2006 brought even more amazing tracks like Gardarika & Cubic. Proket & Prode finally got the recognition that was rightfully deserved. legendary label DSCI4 (DJ Trace) took both tracks for the fourth part of the smashing spy technologies series, these tunes were played by Raiden, Optiv, Dieselboy, Loxy, Limewax, SPL & The Panacea just to name a few.

In 2007 Offkey Recordings released Proket's first EP called Apocrypha EP, all four tracks became known as Proket's best work so far and truly catapulted him into the limelight as one of the most original producers in drum & bass, period.

Proket creates his own unique sound that cannot be confused with anything else. His output is defining the new wave of techno drum & bass, leading the genre in an exciting new direction.

Also appearing are Faction residents Pandemic, Meecha, VKO & Cristo playing their own brand of big, dark and heavy drum & bass. Also in tow are Manchesters best femae dubstep act, The Steppahs providing some weighty beats to get you in the mood.
