Ben Fraser

After 12 years playing the drums, culminating in an album deal with Swiss punk band Tastes Like Chicken (now BMC), Sheffield-based Ben Fraser now focuses his efforts on creating high-quality late-night entertainment... This takes the form of swarming, precision-made pleasure machines: the unique driving acid-tinged filth that is the Ben Fraser sound. Since his first release on Planet Zogg Records in 2005, Ben has gone on to set-up Sabretooth Records: an outlet for his unique blend of all things deep, dark and driving.

Ben White

Ben White (born sometime between July and August of '81, depending on which written records one has procured), is a sizable artistic prodigy based out of the trenches of suburban Washington DC. Ben White's musical genius predates his ability to control it. Such rare recordings as "space bandits" hale large sums of money on online auction websites. White's subsequent releases have seen him experiment and meld many styles of audio art into taxable commodity that has only recently began to make dents in the cargo van of human culture.
