Chaim
Born into a family of traditional musicians and the son of a father who was already spinning records in the late sixties, Chaim grew up to become a complex producer. Influenced by Moroccan music he heard at home while growing up, and the sound of Chicago House he fell in love with while working as a light jockey in his local clubs, his productions tell a story of a sensitive musician from Tel Aviv.

Observe & Control
Observe & Control was created by Tom Cohen (aka Gnuth) in 2002, in Tel-Aviv, Israel.
Originally formed under the name of Xanthippe, the project's current name is inspired
by the works of French philosopher Michel Foucault.
The band is, in reality, a one man project, with Tom composing, singing and producing
the songs while the Lyrics are written by Iris Idelson. In "Utopia", O&C have attempted to merge together danceable melodies with thought-provoking concepts.
The album may be viewed as homage to the rise and fall of utopian

Guidance
Guidance is a four piece band which started out in Israel at the year 2000.
The bands music is a blend of roaring guitars, melodic vocals and hypnotizing grooves making up an uneasily defined genre of Hard Rock. Each player brings his influences to the whole; old and new, Western and Mediterranean all fall together into a unique whole.
Guidance started out by playing small venues in local pubs, after a while they recorded their first few songs, and later on traveled to Canada seeking experience in a country more open to this genre.
