Nathan Fake exploded onto the scene with the mighty ‘Outhouse’ on James Holden’s Border Community label, one of the most astounding debut singles in a long time which has surely now earned classic status, still receiving regular club and radio plays. His rocktronica follow up 'The Sky was Pink' (graced with a remix by Nathan’s main fan, James Holden) looks as though it may even better the incredibly high standards set by his debut.

Nathan has recently unveiled his laptop live set, to rave reviews. Reading like a checklist of the world’s capitals of cool, dates in Berlin, Barcelona, Madrid and Amsterdam form the next stages in the Nathan Fake campaign to take live dance music to levels hitherto unattained. Despite attempts from all corners to persuade him otherwise, Nathan harbours no burning desire to convert his production success into a career as a club DJ, and with a live show like his who can blame him

Ochre is Christopher Leary, currently residing in Newcastle upon Tyne. Late 2004 saw the release of Ochre's critically acclaimed debut album 'A Midsummer Nice Dream', released on the influential Toytronic Records label, which led to national radio airplay, as well as finding its way into US college radio playlists. 'Lemodie', Ochre's sophomore album, recently released on Edinburgh's Benbecula Records, sees Ochre perfect his classically-influenced electronica, set to eclipse the success of his debut.

Echaskech have been around for longer than you might think, in various different forms. They may have finally found their sound but took a load of computers, wires, violin lessons, more than 7 different recording fomats and a long long time...

The sumptuous and organic sound of Echaskech’s unique style of Electro/Breaks has been born from a spectrum of influences that strangely enough started from classical roots when Dominic Hoare and Andy Gillham first met, playing in the same orchestra during their school days.
