UFFIE Miami-born, Paris-dwelling fashion designer and socialite Anna-Catherine Hartley (a.k.a Uffie) has been described as a muse for French DJs – known for her own brand of underground-electronic with girlishly playful yet stiff performance and raunchy lyrics that have lead to collaborations alongside the likes of Feadz, Mr. Oizo and SebastiAn, as well as producer Mirwais and a recent nomination at the French Victoires De La Musique Awards for Best Electro Album.
JAMES YUILL With a passion for the emotional songwriting and atmospheric melodies of Nick Drake & Radiohead and the diverse, dynamic beats of Chemical Brothers and Aphex Twin, JAMES YUILL uses these two somewhat disparate genres to produce his own branding of visceral sound proving to be an influential part of the Folktronic genre currently sweeping through London.
TIGER LOVE Reminiscent of early MGMT London electro-pop trio break onto the scene with high energy and ‘robot’ noises almost resembling a conversation between C3-P0 and a musical Autobot . Yes, please.
YLHCSD Since Kitsune snapped up YLHCSD in 2008 they’ve toured Europe, featured on exclusive compilations alongside Little Boots, La Roux, The Chemical Brothers, Hot Chip and A-Trak and were also recently picked to appear in E4’s Skins.
ANXST It was a small town mundanity and endless sparse countryside which lead to ANXST’s genre transcending dexterity and takes in the experimental Dubstep trip of Vex’d, Industrial Techno of Surgeon, the future glitch of Flying Lotus and the scattered experimental drum and bass of Amon Tobin which results in the vast textured styling of this talented artist
PUNX SOUNDCHECK The partnership of John Taylor and Arif Salih brings together the music that shaped them and the music that’s shaping their future, traversing disco and house, reggae and dubstep, electro and (old) rave, all the while sounding effortlessly and elegantly modern.
