Akfen (Music RisqueZ, MontrZal)
Marc Leclair aka Akufen has come a long way in
the four years since the release of his
now-classic debut album, My Way. Since the 2002
release he's garnered a reputation as one of the world's
most in-demand DJ's, delivering prime-time sets to exuberant crowds on nearly
every continent. In addition to the dozens of
singles he's issued, Leclair holds a monthly residency at
London's famed Fabric nightclub,
runs his own label Musique RisqueZ, and
has remixed such genre-defining artists as Richie
Hawtin, Cabaret Voltaire, Yello, Massive Attack,
Thomas Dolby, Mike Shannon, and Thomas Brinkmann.
Between his Akufen and Horror Inc monikers,
Leclair has released on the notable labels
Perlon, Force Inc, Mille Plateaux, Nova Mute,
Circus Company, Motor Music, Mutek_Rec and
Soundslike. His DJ sets are tech-house
crowd-pleasers; his performance at Decibel 2005
left many legs weary, and this time he's sure to do it again.
Lusine (Ghostly Records/Hymen, Seattle)
Lusine is the brainchild of Jeff McIlwain for his
visceral, melodic vision of abstract electronic
music. Having attended Cal Arts to study 20th
century electronic music and sound design for
music and film, he first began creating his lush
interpretation of IDM many years ago. Since then,
he has recorded for labels such as !K7/MAS, Hymen
and Delikatessen, all aside from his prolific
output for pioneering American IDM label
Isophlux. Since making the move to Ghostly in
2003, Lusine has released the Push and Flat
Remixes 12's, as well as the
stunning and widely-lauded Serial Hodgepodge
full-length from 2004. A veteran of URB
magazine's "Next 100" series,
Lusine is one of the foremost American producers
in the abstract field and an artist with a boundless future in his craft.
Kristina Childs (Decibel/Krakt, Seattle)
As well as being a guest DJ at many clubs in the
Seattle area, Kristina has performed in
Frankfurt, Bogot, Medellin and various
major US cities, sharing the stage with such
artists as John Tejada, Joel Mull, Dan Bell, Mike
Grant, Minx, Bassnectar, Brian Aneurysm and
Marcus Nicolai. She is a resident of Tost Lounge
and Krakt, runs Plasmodium |
