EMMA


Electro female MC, EMMA, from Dusseldorf.

Ben Mono


AMBITIOUS MULTI-PLAYER, PRODUCER, REMIXER AND IN DEMAND DJ FROM MUNICH , BEN MONO HAS BUILT HIMSELF A SOLID REPUTATION IN THE WORLD OF ADVANCED DISKOTAINMENT DURING THE PAST YEARS. HIS DEBUT ALBUM "Dual" WAS PRAISED BY CRITICS FOR BEING “COMPLEX, DEEP, TIGHT AND AUTHENTIC AT THE SAME TIME” (DE:BUG). HIS TRACKS CAN BE FOUND CONSTANTLY ON HEAVY ROTATION IN THE PLAYLISTS OF SUPPORTERS LIKE DAVE CLARKE, JAZZANOVA, FUNKSTÖRUNG OR ZOMBIE NATION. FINALLY, AFTER CAREFULLY POLISHING HIS LATEST COMPOSITIONS, BEN MONO IS ABOUT TO DROP HIS LONG AWAITED SOPHOMORE EFFORT: "Hit The Bit".

Vertual Vertigo





Vertual Vertigo consists of longtime friends Ezekiel38 (aka Cea3) and Cerebral Vortex (aka Medisin). The two met in Nurberg Germany in the year 2000. After comparing each others musical traits, likes and dislikes in a few lengthy cyphers the two became instant allies and formed the VERT. Over the years many members have come and given significant contributions to the groups musical taste however the foundation of the crew (VORTEX AND EXEKIEL38) remains the key to the overall progression of the group.

The two have been recording and preforming together for the better part of 8 years now and have toured through mulitple countries and almost all of the 50 states. The future goal of Vertual Vertigo is to constitantly release classic V material and rock as many stages as possible. Look for the V's at a venue near you!

WhoMadeWho


About WhoMadeWho;
WhoMadeWho may lack a question mark after their name but their music will certainly have you asking after them. Why do they dress up in skeleton suits when they play live? Why does a band supposedly known for disco punk start their second album with an outbreak of omnious sounding woodwind? And why do they fill their most breezy pop moments with teutonic synths? The Danish trio are difficult to pin down but their music sounds as effortless as it is stylistically and sonically adventurous. WhoMadeWho are on a mission to eschew convention. (more)

GoldieLocks


GoldieLocks says;
Alright? I'm Goldie, I live in Croydon. I'm 75% English and 25% Swedish.

I'm a producer and 'rapper' / singer. I'm not very techy, I don't like wires or being a computer boff, it takes me a while to work things out but when I work it out it sounds amazing. To me anyway.

I'd rather have respect than money, and I am ALWAYS original. There is nothing more I hate than copy cats or fakers. I hate people who chat bullshit, drop names or buy champagne. Music means more to me than a new car, fresh garms or a chain.

So far I've had 2 singles and an EP released through Locked On, I have a publishing deal with Puregroove, songs featured in the film 'Adulthood', played at some amazing places around the world and been in some cool magazines. Not bad for a girl from Croydon who left school at 16 to go and work in JD Sports, but I'm still only just starting.

I always have and always will be independent. I run my own empire. I have the last say. I don't rely on other people to do anything, because they always fuck it up. I don't care if you hate what I do, because there's a small percentage of people who love it.

People always ask me what style my music is. I don't know really, a bit of Electro, a bit of Grime, a bit of Dub, a bit of Garage, and a bit of Pop. I more look up to guys than girls, I've never been a girly girl and most females in the music industry are used, abused, and rubbish (or groupies).
