Deceptikon’s recent live show in Seattle got a recommendation from Stranger writer Dave Segal:

Stop Biting: Deceptikon

(Lo-Fi) Former Seattle producer Deceptikon (Zack Wright) has been living in Japan and San Francisco for the last few years or so. Now he’s back for the holidays, in time to liven up that dull week between Christmas and New Year’s Eve with a date at the hiphop/B-boy-friendly weekly Stop Biting. Should be interesting to witness how Deceptikon’s geekily funked-up IDM—his sprightly tracks bump, bleep, and shimmer somewhere between Dabrye and Scientific American—will go down with the breakdancers. He will likely bust out some tracks from his forthcoming album,Mythology of the Metropolis (out February 16 on Daly City Records). DAVE SEGAL

Transported SF presents: Daly City Records takeover!

Deceptikon on a bus with Mochipet & The Flying Skulls!

A mobile party on board a biodiesel powered bus with 3 great DJs/Producers? Damn Straight. With couches lining the sides, a great sound system, and a dancefloor in the back this is no ordinary bus. We stop at 2-3 beautiful outdoor locations over the course of our ride for dancing and merriment.

We are very excited to present a special night with Daly City Records artists. Featuring head honcho Mochipet, up and comer Deceptikon and J. Tonal of The Flying Skulls this night is guaranteed to be off the chain! Seriously, DO NOT SLEEP on this one amigos.

Now all I need to do is play on a boat, a train, and a plane. And possibly a hydrofoil.

After a long hiatus, the Deceptikon Industries shop is back online! There are some exciting things available:

Ascii Ghettoblaster – my limited edition Japan-only mix CD! It’s completely sold out in Japan, but I discovered a few more copies that I’m making available – this probably won’t last long. Also, cheap price!

Greater Cascadia – the handmade edition of my 2nd album! We have about 50 more copies here at Deceptikon Industries HQ. After that it’s gone forever..

Plus some releases from the now-defunct Merck Records, get them now before you have to resort to eBay. Check it out!
