Archie Pelago

Archie Pelago is a trio that produces electronic music collectively and performs live. The group is Hirshi (trumpet, turntables), Cosmo D (cello, Ableton) and Kroba (saxophone, Ableton). In the studio, we combine our varied backgrounds in jazz and classical with a common love for rhythm and the wide-open possibilities of electronic music. On stage, we perform with our instruments, Ableton and Serato, organically melding our interplay to the world of DJing and live electronic music performance, as well as beyond it.

Aba Shanti I

Aba used to deejay Jah Tubby's sound system and at that time he was known as Jasmine Joe. Those of you that were around the sound system scene in the eighties will remember the slightly-extrovert mic man that Jah Tubby's had; that was Aba. When Joe embraced the Rastafarian faith he adopted a new and more positive attitude and with his rediscovered faith a new name. That name was and is Aba Shanti-I, pronounced ABA SHANTI-EYE not ONE. So you see, the name Aba Shanti-I is not just the name of the sound system, it is the name of the person that is playing the sound.

Beacon is Thomas Mullarney III and Jacob Gossett. Their “No Body EP” explores a combination of deep south bass music and ambient pop melodies, with R&B tinged vocals that accompany warm arpeggiated synthesizers. The EP's atmosphere and narrative recall brooding spirituality in the wake of first love and the allure of the paranormal in teenage romance.
