PARTNERS WITH HARD EVENTS
FOR THE OFFICIAL TRAILER PREMIERE
OF ‘BEATS4TANNER’
AT HARD RED ROCKS JULY 30
BEATPORT—the principal online destination for electronic music culture—has partnered with HARD Events to premiere the official trailer of the documentary film BEATS4TANNER at HARD Red Rocks on July 30 at the famed Red Rocks Amphitheater in Colorado. The premiere location is extremely fitting, as the film follows the heartwarming journey of DJ Seebaum (aka Tanner Seebaum), who has terminal brain cancer, to fulfill his dying wish–to DJ on the biggest stage in the word on EDC weekend at the world famous Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Rehab Pool Party in Las Vegas, NV.
The BEATPORT-supported documentary also has garnered support from various artists, like Destructo aka Gary Richards, the founder of HARD Events, who have also participated in the film. BEATS4TANNER features music from Skrillex as well as interviews and music from Datsik, Downlink, Krewella and a cameo from Diplo. The film will benefit the Tanner Seebaum Foundation, the DJ’s namesake non-profit organization that seeks to fund medical and scientific research on the treatment of pediatric tumors of the brain and spine. For more information on the foundation, go to tannersfoundation.org.
BEATS4TANNER is presented by the Tanner Seebaum Foundation and is a D-House Entertainment Production. The film is directed by The Mash-Up King and executive produced by Matthew Seebaum, Stephanie Seebaum and Landon Dyksterhouse. Look for the documentary’s official world premiere at the Las Vegas Film Festival on Thursday, August 13. Following the premiere, it will be released to all major digital retailers in November 2015 by distributor Candy Factory Films.
