Spree
& Adb
Love them or hate them, DJ Spree and MC ADB have been around
a longtime and are still entertaining the dance thirsty
party people of America. Spree is a name that evokes many
feelings some of them can be described as innocence, happiness,
and respect. As a DJ he started performing at events in
the end of 1997 and has never looked back since. Adb joined
him in 1999 after meeting in 1998 at a show called Migration
in Lawrence Kansas, ever since they have been inseparable.
DJ
Spree is from Minneapolis Minnesota and MC ADB originates
from England but now lives in Lincoln Nebraska. The boys
felt there was a void in the American rave scene that needed
to be filled. At the time countless events were taking place
all over the country, but it was virtually impossible to
hear a set of Hardcore (Happycore Stateside) let alone with
an MC. Out of this notion came the concept of Spree&Adb,
the first and only true live hardcore double act with DJ
and MC to compliment each other. This same tradition was
the staple of the early UK rave scene and gave a new interesting
option to ravers and promoters alike.
So, seven years on the duo are still headlining shows all
over the states, Canada, and the UK with no end in sight.
The two have a near fanatical fan base that follows them
loyally to every show. It does not matter if the event is
held in a barn in Iowa, or an abandoned warehouse in Los
Angeles, the crowd always turns into a mad frenzy. This
is the main reason why the boys love to still perform, because
of the people on the dance floor and the smile on their
faces. It may sound cheesy, but it’s true!
2007 was another massive year for the dynamic duo featuring
events in Seattle, Minneapolis, Phoenix, Chicago, and more
in between. The highlight of the summer had to be performing
at the ‘Underground Sounds-Back2theFreak’ event
in Murphysboro, IL. Immediately upon arriving we knew this
show as going to be special. You can never beat the atmosphere
of outdoor festivals in the dark of night.
It
was a perfect warm summer evening with a light breeze carrying
the sound of beating drums in the air. The only light in
the sky was the distant shimmer of bright laser lights flickering
and gentle glimmer of glow sticks. The set went brilliantly
and the boys left with ears ringing and many happy memories
of smiling faces and hands reaching high into the night
sky.
