FAR TOO LOUD

Brighton based breaks / electro producer.

  

Signed to Funkatech Records.

  

Far Too Loud, a.k.a. Oli Cash, has gained a significant reputation in dance music for quality, dancefloor-destroying production. Originally rooted in breakbeat, the FTL sound was quickly recognized as being something different through the influence of other styles of dance music. Over the past four years the sound has developed and diversified but maintained the mix of hard-hitting beats, dirty basslines, detailed production and twisted sound design that has set FTL apart from the rest. This is evident from the full-on tech-breaks monster “Get High”, which was awarded Best Single at Breakspoll 2007, to the electro mix of Lily Allen’s “Not Fair”, which was liked so much that it became part of Lily’s live show and another remix was subsequently commissioned.

HEDFLUX

Norwich based breaks / psy / techno producer. 

  

Signed to Broken Robot Recordings.

 

Since exploding onto the scene with his seminal début track "Music Is My Weapon", Hedflux has firmly established a fresh and distinctive flavour of cerebral tech-funk. Drawing on energy from breaks, techno and psychedelic styles, the result is a fusion of deep driving bass grooves, thumping drops and intricate neon synth-play.

His titles on Sinister, Breakin Even and Broken Robot Records have received widespread support from breaks, electro and psychedelic DJs alike, and enjoyed Top 10 spots on all the major download sites. With gigs at Glade, Waveform and iBreaks festivals, and the Official Shpongle Afterparty in 2009, plus a guest mix on Annie Nightingale's show on BBC Radio 1, the Hedflux sound is increasingly being felt at high profile events in the UK and beyond.

OOOD

Signed to Phar Psyde.

  

OOOD formed in the UK in 1994 and with 4 members since 2001 (Colin, Steve, Rama, Ryokan), they've been around for as long as there's been psytrance and have worked with many of the names and labels from the scene's long history, as well as producing some of Goa Trance's classic tracks on labels like Flying Rhino, Phantasm and Matsuri.  A few quiet years in the early 2000s saw them retreat to the Stooodio after their first two albums were caught up in the bankruptcy of two different distributors but they never gave up, and their eclectic third album 'Free Range' (Organic, 2006) was regarded as one of the very best psytrance releases that year.  Two years later they released 'Fourthought' (Phar Psyde, 2008), an 80-minute psychedelic journey through downtempo, breaks, electro, blues and a varied selection of psytrance.   

As well as the originality, positivity and excellent production they bring to their releases, OOOD live sets have been famous since their London debut in 1995.  With four people in the band they are unique for the way they use live instruments (guitar, drums, keyboards, percussion) as an integral part of their live set, and have been compared to Eat Static and Hallucinogen for the quality of their live sound and the vibrancy of their performances, resulting in bookings worldwide.  OOOD live is different every time but these guys know what they're doing and they put on a hell of a show.  

Recently OOOD have been playing regularly in the UK and working hard on new material, inspired by travels through Japan and India.  They now live in the same city and seem determined to push their boundaries ever further, with recent dancefloor tracks spanning the bpm range from 110 to 150 and a stunning electro/psy/techno track 'Frogology'. Coming out soon is the track 'Little Big Life', to be released on an upcoming VA on Wild Things Records.  OOOD have been invited to play at Universo Paralello in Brazil at the end of 2009 and a tour of Japan is currently being finalised for 2010.  OOOD will also be playing two live sets at Boom! Festival 2010, and have been commissioned by the festival to create the soundtrack for a film to be performed in a set opening the main stage..   

OOOD's mission has always been to have a good time, spread a little joy and write the best tunes they can; if you've heard them or seen them recently you'll know just how well they have succeeded!  They are available for live & DJ sets.
