The Tony Danza Tapdance Extravaganza are named after actor Tony Danza; the humorous moniker is occasionally misinterpreted, as older concertgoers have attended shows in hopes of seeing Danza himself. The group signed with Corrosive Recording in 2005 after self-releasing their debut album. Their most recent release, Danza II: Electric Boogaloo, was issued in 2007 on Black Market Activities. The album's name is a parody of the Danzig album, Danzig II: Lucifuge, as well as the 1980s film Breakin' 2: Electric Boogaloo.

Hailing from Washington DC, Benoit & Sergio are an electronic-pop duo whose sound owes as much to Galaxie 500 or The Jesus & Mary Chain as to any house or techno pioneers. Their debut EP, "What I've Lost," was released in November of 2009 on Bruno Pronsato's record label, thesongsays. Boldly unfashionable, What I've Lost is a rich and charismatic record that effortlessly brings a pop sensibility to a techno framework.

Covenance is a death metal band hailing from Annapolis, Maryland, United States. The group was formed in March 2005, and released their debut 7" entitled "Ravaging the Pristine" later the same year. Featuring ex-members of Dying Fetus, Misery Index and Cryptopsy, the band is expected to put out an all-new release in early 2007 followed by extensive touring.
