Sound Tribe Sector 9

Sound Tribe Sector 9, or STS9 for short, is a 5 piece band that originally hails from Snellville, Georgia and after much success in Athens, GA and Atlanta, moved out west in late 2000 and currently reside in the San Francisco Bay Area of California.

The band is known for frequent and explosive live performances with a friendly atmosphere and lots of dancing. Their music combines a special blend of the Atlanta influenced hip-hop side while combining it with a electronica-jam feel. The band is also known for their affinity for the Maya calendar, or "13 moon calendar". Onstage, the band blends live instrumentation using Ableton Live via Apple powerbooks.

Emancipator

A sleeping giant of the electronic music world, Douglas Appling - more commonly known as Emancipator - has quietly established himself as a mainstay in the electronic music scene since the release of his debut album, Soon It Will Be Cold Enough in 2006. Classically-trained as a violinist from an early age, Appling's organic approach to electronic music production draws inspiration from a wide range of international cultures and musical genres, culminating in a refreshingly authentic brand of electronic music that has infiltrated global consciousness.

2017 was a busy year of touring & music writing for Emancipator. Doug’s live band, Emancipator Ensemble, headlined Red Rocks Amphitheater for the first time and made appearances at many music festivals across the globe.

November 2017 also marked the release of the much-anticipated new Emancipator album, Baralku, via his own label, Loci Records. Inspired by the astral “island” some aboriginal societies believe to be our spiritual home after death, Baralku synthesizes downtempo hip-hop beats, world music elements, and field recordings, as well as jazz, folk, and classical influences into a transcendent hybrid of lush, nuanced, and ethereal compositions.

“Music takes me to places, and each song is a spirit island on which its soul lives infinitely,” says Emancipator of the album’s title and his inspiration. “To release a song is both a death and a birth at the same time,” he adds. “The sounds contained in each song have reached the end of their life process. The once shapeshifting collage of expression has been crystallized into a final form, no longer kinetic. Yet it exists in a state of permanent potential energy, waiting to be accessed in the form of music, just as the memory of a departed soul will always have the power to move us.”

Following the release of Baralku, the Emancipator Ensemble will embark on a 25-date North American tour in early 2018.

Skream

London-based producer/DJ Skream (Ollie Jones) is a master of numerous forms of bass-heavy dance music. He played a vital role in the development and popularity of dubstep during the 2000s, and subsequently branched out toward techno, disco, drum'n'bass, and other styles. Following early collaborations with fellow genre pioneers Benga and Loefah, he released one of dubstep's most easily recognizable tracks, "Midnight Request Line," in 2005, which was included on his 2006 full-length Skream!, one of dubstep's earliest albums. His tracks and remixes helped shift the genre from being a darker, more minimalist form of club music to something more melodic and accessible, paving the way for its mainstream popularity by the beginning of the 2010s. Skream's biggest commercial success was his involvement as part of the dubstep supergroup Magnetic Man (with Benga and Artwork), whose self-titled debut album reached number one on the U.K. dance chart in 2010. However, while primarily associated with dubstep, Skream has never limited himself to one genre, and much of his work since the mid-2010s has explored house and techno. DJ sets such as 2018's Fabriclive 96 are smooth, propulsive mixtures of tech-house and electro, and single releases like 2014's "Bang That" and 2021's "Chester's Groove" generally provide heavy club ammunition. 2023's Skreamizm 8, a full-length edition of his long-running series, features breakbeat-heavy progressive house. Remixes of songs by Eliza Rose and Charli xcx appeared in 2024. Ollie Jones had the good fortune to be working at the Big Apple record store when he first started making beats at age 15 and armed with a cracked copy of the Fruity Loops music-making software. Big Apple was at the center of the early development of U.K. garage's dark, half-speed offshoot dubstep before it was even called dubstep, and it was at Big Apple that Jones, who recorded as Skream, met fellow beatsmiths Benga and Hatcha. Hatcha was a DJ at the seminal club Forward and was only too happy to debut the dubplates of both Skream and Benga's early recordings. Their music took the tension-and-release formula of dance music, removed the release, and layered in more tension instead. With slow and pounding basslines and wobbly treble, they were creating a kind of music that summoned and summed up feelings of urban paranoia, but in an enjoyable way. Emphasizing the sub-bass made them popular with clubbers, but they were also popular with bloggers. Championed and spread by word of mouth on the Internet, Skream went straight from being a name in Croydon to being known around the world. When the owner of Big Apple founded a label to give a home to tracks by dubstep artists, Skream was one of those who released material on it. Other early Skream singles appeared on Ital, Tectonic, and Tempa, who issued his breakout classic track "Midnight Request Line," which received praise and airplay from far outside the dubstep scene. The track appeared on Jones' first full-length album, Skream!, which was released in 2006 by Tempa. Skream began hosting a weekly program on dance music station Rinse FM (later joined by Benga), and continued releasing acclaimed singles and EPs, including the long-running Skreamizm series. His first mix CD, Rinse: 02, appeared in 2007, followed by Watch the Ride in 2008. Skream began producing remixes for non-dubstep artists (including Depeche Mode's David Gahan and Klaxons), furthering the genre's popularity. In particular, his rave-inspired mix of La Roux's "In for the Kill" helped contribute to the song's international success. Skream's second full-length, Outside the Box, appeared in 2010. The album was significantly more pop-influenced than his earlier work, and also contained a few dramatic drum'n'bass tracks. Magnetic Man's debut album also arrived that year, and contained several hits, including the U.K. Top Ten-charting "I Need Air" as well as collaborations with John Legend, Katy B, and Ms. Dynamite. Skream and Benga left Rinse FM in 2011 and began DJ'ing on BBC Radio 1, earning a weekly slot in April of 2012. While Skream continued releasing dubstep 12"s on labels like Deep Medi Musik and Nonplus Records, his club sets began incorporating techno, house, and disco, and his own productions reflected the shift. The disco-inspired single "Rollercoaster" (with Sam Frank) appeared in 2013, as did All Gone Miami 2013, a double mix CD shared with British dance music legend Pete Tong. The more aggressive techno track "Bang That" was released by Boysnoize Records in 2014, and subsequent tracks appeared on tech-house label Crosstown Rebels and Skream's Of Unsound Mind imprint. Skream's mix CD Fabriclive 96, a fluid selection of techno, house, and electro tracks, was issued by Fabric in 2018. He continued issuing club tracks like 2019's "Otto's Chant" (with Michael Bibi) and 2020's "DUNNN," and he revisited his archives with a series of Unreleased Classics releases. 2021 saw collaborations with dubstep producer MUST DIE! ("LOL OK") and Japanese taiko drummers Kodo ("Shinogi"), as well as the EP Steel City Dance Discs, Vol. 23 and several singles. The Attention Deficit EP, including a track co-produced by Jackmaster, appeared in 2022. The following year, the producer released Skreamizm 8, a full-length leaning in a more breakbeat-heavy direction, with appearances from Trim, Prospa, and Lagoon Wavey. Throughout 2024, Skream focused on remixes and collaborations, including mixes of Eliza Rose and Calvin Harris' "Body Moving" and Charli xcx's "Von Dutch," in addition to the track "Witching Hour" with AF13 and Jeff Kite. ~ Jody Macgregor & Paul Simpson, Rovi

G Jones

Greg Jones is the artist behind the enigmatic G JONES moniker. A lauded master of electronic music production and highly sought after performer, G Jones is a frequent collaborator of legendary artists including Bassnectar, Eprom and DJ Shadow, who called Jones “the most gifted Ableton beatmaker I’ve ever seen.” Rolling Stone touted him a “studio wizard.” Billboard Magazine had this to say about his album’s first single, UNDERSTANDING THE POSSIBILITY: That's what listening to G Jones will do. It's a mental minefield of sudden drops and stutters, bass lines that open holes under your feet and send you shooting sideways to some warped mystery land.

Ott

Ott has been messing about with sound boxes every day for as long as he can remember. Having spent the ‘90s flitting between his day-job as a freelance studio engineer and long weekends under the stars at psychedelic trance parties, the obvious next step, as the millennium turned, was to create music of his own from the jumble of sounds which filled his head.

After teaming up with Twisted Records, 2002 saw the release of the acclaimed ‘Hallucinogen In Dub’ album, followed in short order by his first solo effort, ‘Blumenkraft’ in 2003. 2008 saw the release of ‘Skylon’ and in 2011 the album ‘Mir’ was born.

A pattern has formed: every four years or so an album coalesces from the chaos, heads out into the world and takes on a life of its own. 2015 was one of those years.

Financed by a wildly successful Kickstarter campaign, Ott built a new studio, filled it with vintage sound-creation toys and locked the door, vowing not to emerge until a new record was born. The original 6 month deadline came and went but, a year after he started, the thing is finished.

August 11th, 2015 saw the release of Ott’s latest studio album – ‘Fairchild’!
