Stealth started off as a 3 piece band with no vocals that consisted of Nik Ontiveros, Jimmy Saavedra, and Josh Parker. After a search for a vocalist initially failed, they decided to bring in Josh's brother, Jon Parker.
Snide was originally formed in the summer of 2006 by Nobby when he was living in Spain, as a 'two finger' gesture to the terrible 'music scene' of karaoke, Elvis tributes and one man and his guitar with backing tracks, that the ex-pat community were fed and accepted. Along with the original line up of Dan, Squeak and Ken, they played a set of classic punk covers, including the Sex Pistols, Rancid and Generation X, to name a few.
"With her eclectic sets, Dj Blush proves that a club DJ is not limited to the overplayed thumping techno beat. Her influences bounce around from experimental founding fathers Kraftwerk, to the oversampled Daft Punk spun with the synthpop merriment of Depeche Mode, strung with the indie sounds of groups like Le Tigre and The Gossip." Dj Blush is a female DJ in São Paulo, Brazil. Very eclectic, fan of mixes and best of electro [pop/rock], post-punk rock, minimal and synth pop styles from the alternative scene.
'Eskimo Callboy' don't have anything in common with people in the Arctic region or lightly clad male companions. You could imagine it, though. They are a 6-piece post-hardcore band from
Castrop-Rauxel, Germany. After Daniel, Pascal, Kevin, Daniel and Micha already reached some achievements with their old bands and among other things supported artists like Machinemade God or Callejón, they searched for a new challenge. At the beginning of 2010, they formed Eskimo Callboy along with Sebastian aka Sushi.
At the edges of the ever expanding, mutating category known as electro(nica) stands Underpass. Eschewing the strategy for multiple pseudonyms – so favoured by other producers – with neatly accompanying subgenres, he has operated solely under this name for some years. Truth is, in a scene sometimes guilty of generic electronica-by-numbers, with Underpass you never know to expect. Except, you know, sheer stamina.
Ben Mono – ambitious multi-player, producer, remixer and in demand DJ from Munich – has built himself a solid reputation in the world of advanced diskotainment during the past years.

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".
