Random Impulse
Hailing from North London, armed with unmatched flow, fierce delivery and bursting with content, the young Random Impulse is quickly becoming recognised as one of the most talented and refreshing new artists to appear from the U.K. It is apparent to say the least, that 22 year old Random Impulse is more than a just a skilled m.c: distinctively recognized for his unique genre-crossing concepts and an almost eerie clear sense of descriptiveness, the artist has gained an extensive army of fans spanning across a surprisingly varied number of sub-cultures.

Pig & Dan
Pig & Dan are made up on producers Dan Duncan & Igor Tchkotoua (Pig). They met a number of years ago and from there have developed an extremly solid and fruitful partnership. After a few months of producing together they signed a deal with Dutch label, Sadie Records, they began to enter into the market and gain success. This gave the duo a boost and they started to produce two/three tunes a week.

Screwtape
There are at least three artists represented here. 1.) Screwtape is the harsh noise project of Australia's Andrew McIntosh. 2.) Walter Gross and Bizzart form Screwtape. An experiment in lost and found sound and noises and samples of some of the weirdest and just most obscure shit I've ever heard. But one thing I've learned about Walter Gross and one thing I've trained myself to do, is to listen to the beats and melodies he hears in his head, and when you break down those walls that tell you what you're listening to is just noise, you'll hear it too.
