Emancipator

To some, it must seem like this young electronic producer came out of nowhere. Emancipator (Douglas Appling) played his first live show in July 2009, opening for Bonobo at the Roseland Theater (cap. 1500). Since then, he’s toured with Bassnectar, drawn crowds at festivals like Trinumeral and Symbiosis, and closed out Sound Tribe Sector 9’s late night parties in Denver at the request of the band.

For All Those Sleeping

For All Those Sleeping was formed in October of 2007 in Saint Cloud, Minnesota, United States. They were quick to build a name for themselves with their hard hitting verses and melodic “sing a long” choruses, which quickly reached out to fans across the Midwest. Don’t let their name deceive you, For All Those Sleeping is most definitely awake and busy. In their first year, For All Those Sleeping appeared on the widely-known Vans Warped Tour and Cornerstone Festival all before releasing their debut EP "The Lies We Live" in September of 2008.

Everybody Was in the French Resistance...Now!

Eddie Argos and Dyan Valdés are correcting the mistakes of pop songs past. So far they have defended the belittled blue collar worker from Kanye West's "Gold Digger," told Gerry and the Pacemakers that in fact it is okay to walk alone, dumped the manipulative Martha Reeves on behalf of poor Jimmy Mack and taken the misguided instructions of a 17th century ballad to its logical conclusion.
