Line-up
Joy Orbison
Joy Orbison (Born Peter O'Grady) is a DJ and producer based in London. His style is generally accepted as a coalescence of Dubstep, UK Funky, UK Garage, House & Jungle. O'Grady achieved underground éclat with his debut single, "Hyph Mngo/Wet Look" released via Hotflush Recordings in October 2009. O'Grady credits his uncle Ray Keith with introducing him to jungle and UK garage at a young age. At 13 he took up DJing and eventually moved into production in his 20s, using Fruity Loops to create 8-bar grime loops before developing his sound combining house, disco, and dubstep. He cites influences as diverse as J Dilla, My Bloody Valentine, GG Allin, Josef K, and The Beach Boys.
Tama Sumo
In the past Tama Sumo played along the lines of House and Techno music. During his career he developed more diversity in his personal style by playing more Disco and Afrobeats.
Ron Morelli
Ron Morelli, also known as HCR or The Falcon, is originally from Merrick, Long Island, and now lives in Paris. He played in the band Devola in the 1990s and later in two other bands, but these projects were primarily for personal enjoyment. Around 2000-2001, he transitioned to solo musical expression, focusing on DJing and then production.
Awanto 3
Steven de Peven, known as Awanto 3, is a highly creative and versatile artist. He's a prolific creator, releasing music, books, and engaging in multimedia projects, and even running a shop. His work is characterized by humor and strong visual elements, as he believes music should always be accompanied by distinctive visuals. He aims for a balance of contrasting elements in all his creations.
Joe Manish
Joe Manish, real name Jeroen Kamerling, born in Rotterdam in 1978, developed an early interest in electronic music through artists like Pink Floyd. He began experimenting with tape decks and transitioned to turntables in the mid-90s, initially playing industrial techno and old funk. He quickly gained experience DJing at local parties, eventually shifting to more danceable music. Joe aims to create an 'eargasmic experience' and a narrative through his mixes, hoping to evoke emotional responses from his listeners.
