Monolake

Monolake was formed in 1995 as the duo of Gerhard Behles and Robert Henke, although on later albums the group consisted of Henke alone, with Behles focusing his time on running the Ableton software company. Their sound can generally be described as minimal techno filled with nice touch of fine tech dub, although the 1999 Gobi. The Desert EP, which contains a single 37-minute atmospheric piece, is a notable exception. Monolake first released an album and several 12"s on Berlin's Chain Reaction label, then on Monolake/Imbalance Computer Music, which is operated by Robert Henke.

Early Songs

Early Songs is the pseudonym of sole member and multi-instrumentalist, David Scott. After scoring several short films in 2003, David began making his own instrumental, guitar-based music. Stirred from sleep by the finger-style guitar of Mississippi John Hurt, the many marvelous sounds of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra and the places visited by the Dirty Three, Early Songs awoke one morning in 2004 to begin its own journey. The first fruit of these travels is "Wind Wound", a self-recorded album that is set for a mid-year release on Preservation - a label from Sydney, Australia.

hunz

Hunz is a three-piece electronic pop band, spearheaded by Brisbane-based electronic musician and producer, Hans Van Vliet. With a background in music programming and motion design, Hans pulls his notes out of a binary soup of ones and zeroes, hand-crafting synth patches and beats from scratch. The result is a mix of pulsating, glitchy electronics and ethereal vocals that hint at the sinister, but succumb to the pleasure of pop hooks instead.
