Kool Keith

An original member of New York's new-school pioneers the Ultramagnetic MC's, "Kool" Keith Thornton is best known as a solo rapper. His signature style is stream-of-consciousness lyrical flow and complex vocals, two skills that earn him a perennial nod from the underground hip-hop community. The average Kool Keith album is peppered with bizarre, disjointed, even delusional or disassociated themes, concepts, and references. Nearly all of his albums incorporate a satirical dislike for more commercialized strains of hip-hop, as well as major record labels.

Recoil was born in 1986 as a two-track experimental EP.

Evi Vine

Evi Vine is a singer/songwriter emerging from the UK’s underground music scene. She has been inspired by such diverse artists as Leonard Cohen, the Cocteau Twins, Arvo Part and Nine Inch Nails. Raw and emotive, Evi’s powerful, but minimalist narrative style is very much her own. Her voice is variously described as haunting and other-worldly; her lyrics tell of isolation, sex, death and alienation, but it is her potent and mesmerising performances that really draw you in. Few performers can consistently deliver such an impassioned, emotional and hypnotic show as Evi Vine.
