July 2010 Panelists:

Michael Bosley Pic
Michael "Boz" Bosley - Boz is the current label manager for the acclaimed San Francisco house music labels Dirtybird and Mothership, home to Claude Von Stroke, Justin & Christian Martin, Worthy, Catz n Dogs, and other global acts. Prior to that, he was the Digital Marketing & Content Coordinator at Om Records and the International Sales Manager at Thrive Records, which represents some of the biggest names in electronic music, including Steve Aoki, John Digweed, Air, Fatboy Slim, Paul Oakenfold, LA Riots, and countless others. Boz is also the label head and founder of Utensil Recordings, home to such artists as JT Donaldson, Lance Desardi and Wolfgang Gartner.
Sara Cooper - Sara Cooper has been in the electronic music industry long before there was such a thing.  Since her early days of the rave and meeting Carl Cox, Liam Howlett (Prodigy), Moby, Joey Beltram, Doc Martin, Josh Wink, Richie Hawtin and others on some of their first visits to San Francisco, she has never waned in her devotion to the music.  Her passion led her to become America's first female techno producer, as well as editor of America's first "ravezine": The Underground.  Today she is in the middle of a 15-year career in public relations.  Her self-titled firm currently represents literally some of the biggest names in dance music today, including Carl Cox, Dubfire, Sander Van Doorn, Lee Coombs, Cosmic Gate, Dresden & Johnston, and others.  For more, please visit:  SaraCooperPR.com
Nikola Baytala Nikola Baytala - San Francisco DJ Nikola Baytala has become a crucial component of the minimal-techno collective known as Kontrol. He's been exploring the upper echelons of the techno/house continuum since the early '90s, gaining a reputation as a DJ's DJ, with acclaim coming from house-music legends like Derrick Carter and Doc Martin. Baytala clearly has put many hours of study into his craft, and it's paid off with smooth mixes and world-class track selection that have landed him gigs at Fabric UK, Panorama Bar, DEMF, The Fillmore, the Warfield, and even Lollapalooza. Nikola rounds this out with a production career that includes releases on Junior Boys Own, Utensil, Soulfood, and Nightshift Music. Myspace.com/nikolaswat
