S.P.Y.

With his Dadon the mike taking latino requests at fun fairs, young Carlos selected the tunes! Hailing from Sao Paulo, Brazil's capital of D&B, S.P.Y comes from the same beats classroom as Marky, Patife and Drumagik. Whilst studying and working in graphic design it was Hospital’s very own Zac Vibes who booked him for his 1st night in London, at Camden's Lock 17.

Forbidden Society

I've been producing electronic music since 1998, when I started a project called Desert Storm Breakcore Squad with my friend JayB. We produced a quite unusual mixture of hardcore techno and jungle, because I had a hardcore/speedcore background and Jay was more into jungle.

Later on I bought my own PC and started making music by myself under the Noize Punishment moniker. I always liked grindcore, punk or metal and I guess this influence is traceable in my tracks. Among the biggest influences to me I would count Alec Empire and Atari Teenage Riot, Mathis Mootz (Panacea), Bombardier.
