Ludwig van Beethoven

Ludwig van Beethoven (16th December 1770 Bonn, Germanic States -26th March 1827) was a composer of the transitional period between the late Classical and early Romantic eras. Beethoven is widely regarded as one of the greatest masters of musical construction, sometimes sketching the architecture of a movement before he had decided upon the subject matter. He was one of the first composers to systematically and consistently use interlocking thematic devices, or "germ-motives," to achieve inter-movement unity in long compositions.

Hudson Mohawke

Hudson Mohawke is the man of the hour, and dirty beats are his trade. Hudson Mohawke, aka Hud Mo, started out as a young bedroom producer in Glasgow, Scotland -- a town known for every music bar rap. He had no idea that his indulgence in hip-hop, hardcore, techno, prog, fusion, and electro would capture so much attention.

Sex Gang Children

Sex Gang Children is an early group that formed in the early 1980s in Britain. They were a very dramatic band, relying on heavy bass, tribal drumming, sudden mood shifts, a woozy cabaret ready sound that influenced the rise of the later scene, and yet another in a long line of goth singers with an odd, highly dramatic voice. Although the group only released one official album, their singles and various other tracks have been packaged into numerous collections, and they remain one of the better known bands out of the early scene.
