HUMANS
When Slade and Ricq get together as HUMANS, they assume the roles of producers and composers. They are a dynamic live indie electronic pop act in the vein of LCD Soundsystem, Jamie XX and Junior Boys that can impress audiophiles with their technical skills while curating a vibrant dance floor experience like a proper DJ would. HUMANS' music has been created for and appeared in campaigns and TV shows including Red Bull, Entourage, CSI and MTV.
They describe their music as always changing. The songs from their releases end up seeming a little more minimal compared to the tweaked and edited versions they perform live. Altered to maximize impact, the music grows and task on lives of its own. HUMANS are fun guys, and the crowd picks up on it right away.
Their touring schedule will start in February leading into March, with a stint in Europe including the Great Escape Festival in Brighton, followed by a tour of North American festivals and hotspots. They are expected to head into the studio in the fall, in anticipation of of their debut album in Spring 2014. In the meantime, keep an eye out for HUMANS side-projects Gang Signs and Sabota.

GLORY GLORY
Glory Glory returns with their latest EP, So Long, on April 1, 2014. Mixed by Grammy nominated producer / mix engineer Justin Gerrish (Vampire Weekend, The Strokes), So Long finds the band drawing on influences that include indie, new wave, and syncopated dance rhythms.
From the Nile Rodgers inspired guitars on "Take My Time" to the Radiohead-ready rhythms of "Everybody Lies," the EP showcases the band's continuing capacity to mold progressive sonic landscapes into a pop framework.
From the band's early days as a group of post-punk delay-pedal junkies to its current sonic infatuations, Glory Glory restlessly accepts the challenge to create music that cannot be confined to a singular genre. Where early reviews drew comparisons to Dischord Records bands, arty indie acts and even Canadian prog-rock legends Rush, the group's recent work echoes current innovators like Grizzly Bear, Caribou, and Twin Shadow.

AMBITION
Ambition is the Man of the Year with a sound reminiscent of the Golden Era of Hip Hop. Having released a full-length LP in 2010, two mixtapes and most recently his Man of the Year EP in March 2013, Ambition is ready to raise the stakes once again.
