Ganga Giri

Ganga Giri mixes red natural elements with fat tribal beats and dirty funky bass lines to create a unique tribal-technological deep earth dance experience. Explosive and pulsating, at times ambient and flowing, the music is a pumping percussive multi-layered experience of complex grooves and raw, deep natural sound. Ganga himself is a rhythmic didjeridu virtuoso and percussionist -- an inspired music creator whose passion brings people together in celebration of nowness in newness, a modern day corroboree for all!

Tristan

Tristan Cooke again is a face that only needs to be introduced to those new on the circuit. He has been DJing and producing all over the world for at least ten years, with two albums under his belt 'Audiodrome' and 'Substance' and a third 'Chemisphere' coming shortly on Twisted Records. Sadly with the advent of Tristan's tinnitus problem, his Dj sets are few and far between, but he still plays 'live' on a regular basis as its the use of headphones makes matters worse.

Crystal Stilts

Crystal Stilts is a Brooklyn, N.Y., quartet. Its sound -- equally droll, moody and buoyant -- has roots in early '80s Manchester pop as well as in minimalist garage-rock acts. The band has drawn comparisons to Interpol, Joy Division and early The Jesus and Mary Chain -- with whom it also shares a penchant for stand-up drumming. Slumberland Records released the band's debut full-length, Alight Of Night, in October 2008, following an earlier EP.

Dogfeet

Dogfeet were formed in the late sixties as a heavy blues band, but after bagging a record deal, changed to a sound considered more commercial. Their 1970's LP is a highly unusual beast, with subdued duel guitaring, echoing vocals and atmospheric percussion and bass, sometimes reminiscent of early Fleetwood Mac. Includes previously unreleased tracks and original studio demos.
