Glitches

Robbie, Ben, Mike & James: Glitches are creating an Odyssey to call their own. Having spent that past year locked away in a central London mansion, they are close to breaking point with electron-tinged songs and an obsession with the regal.
Find them lost at sea. Currently in the Aegean. May their Decline and Fall be long and fruitful.

Rui Da Silva

Rui da Silva is a Portuguese producer and DJ, whose single "Touch Me" (featuring the vocals of Cassandra Fox) topped the UK Chart in 2001. At the time, he was the only Portuguese musician to have a UK hit and hence was the first to score a UK number one. Rui started producing house music in 1992, just as club culture was getting established in Lisbon. Noticing the lack of dance music labels in Portugal, Rui teamed up with DJ Vibe to form Kaos Records, the first label in Portugal specialized in house and electronic music.

The Sight Below

The Sight Below operates in half gestures, the feeling that you know what is going to happen, yet you are surprised anyway. Reverberated guitars drowned in beautiful 4/4 repetition, consciousness melts away. In this iPod age, sound has become a symbol of our attention span, splintering into fragments. The music of The Sight Below is quite the opposite: music which invites you to focus and lose focus, the seemingly distant guitar parts slowly arranging the puzzle before you, creating a beautiful soundpool - This is a brooding sound for drowning in lightless water.

Pig & Dan

Pig & Dan are made up on producers Dan Duncan & Igor Tchkotoua (Pig). They met a number of years ago and from there have developed an extremly solid and fruitful partnership. After a few months of producing together they signed a deal with Dutch label, Sadie Records, they began to enter into the market and gain success. This gave the duo a boost and they started to produce two/three tunes a week. They then decided that it would be a good idea to build their own record company 'Submission' and work together with Sadie to create a bigger market.
