Hieroglyphic Being - Live

Jamal Moss is among the most distinctive individuals from Chicago's vibrant underground. With a constant genre transformation, Hieroglyphic Being moves between experimental improv with equal parts of free-jazz and acid house. This spiritual fusion is especially inspired by Jamal Moss' mentors, which include Adonis and Marshall Allen (Sun Ra Arkestra).

Some will call him an "acquired taste" - he puts it like this:

- I guess my energy is only meant to be tapped into by a select few and not the many, and what is accepted in what I do.

object blue

Experimental house and techno producer, who boldly explores an intensely dark, complex and sometimes chaotic soundscape. As a DJ, object blue's character is uplifting - yet as nerdy as her productions. Her selection is unpredictable and her DJ style intense when pop meets deep underground.

object blue has often been referred to as a 'techno-feminist', and in an interview with the art magazine Contemporary she commented as follows:

- To put it simply: I love techno and I love feminism. To go even further, the term also encompasses a vision of the world in which technology is a tool for our liberation.

Lyra Valenza - Live

High-energy and experimental bass mutations that will twist the dance floor at +160bpm when grime, jungle, footwork, breaks, juke, trance, hardcore and other techno-related music is mixed. Expect nothing less than a burning dance floor when the Copenhagen duo performs live.
