********************************
GREG FOX (USA)

Greg Fox is a multi-instrumentalist, interdisciplinary artist, and teacher born and based in New York City. A versatile and prolific creative, Fox studied percussion with Guy Licata, Thurman Barker, Marvin “Bugalu” Smith, has a B.A. in Integrated Arts from Bard College, and has toured, recorded and released numerous records with Liturgy, Guardian Alien, ZS, Ex Eye, Skeletons, Teeth Mountain, Dan Deacon, Colin Stetson, Ben Frost, and many more. Using the drums as a main interface of communication, in tandem with Sensory Percussion, Fox describes, animates and accesses hidden synesthetic landscapes.

“Good drummers aren’t uncommon. Great ones are. We still mourn Keith Moon of the Who and John Bonham of Led Zeppelin as the jolly bashers of modernity. Here comes the future, they seemed to be telling us with their sensational ka-blammo. Together, they popularized the notion that, in rock-and-roll, a drummer’s unsolemn duty is to establish a sense of time while happily smashing it to bits. Greg Fox reactivates that idea for the Information Age.”

- Washington Post

OLIMPIA SPLENDID (Finland)

Olimpia Splendid is about endless loops, hypnotic bass and sort-of-tune guitar noise, whispering, unruliness, skrikes. The trio was founded in the summer of 2010 in Helsinki and is formed by visual artists & musicians Heta Bilaletdin, Jonna Karanka and Katri Sipiläinen. Fonal Records released their 7” ep in 2013 which was followed by a full-length debut in July 2015. Olimpia Splendid is rumoured to be “best stoner shit” and also “a little bit famous”.

“Uptempo rattle of no-note guitar licks and no-brain bass riffs that kicks and jerks like a barracuda on a bait line. Most enticing of all is the feeling these riffs could endlessly spiral on and
fill many hours of barbed and beautiful releases yet to come.” –

The Wire

TARAKA (Prince Rama) (USA)

A mesmeric bedroom-intimate solo set from one-half of the radical duo known as PRINCE RAMA, a group whose often unpredictable live shows have been described by fans as “hypnotic and mesmerizing– the feeling of a stadium concert on acid,” incorporating elements of performance art, dance-club initiation rite, and vintage VH-1 hair-metal-bravado. Since signing to Animal Collective’s Paw Tracks label, Prince Rama has continually delivered powerful, raw performances
of dark pop, as well as coining and embodying the utopian spirit of “The Now Age Movement,” a cult of post-Internet transcendentalism.

“The coolest thing about this mess of orgiastic sound is that it's totally possible to envision it being played live; it feels
present, inside your skin, under your muscles, and inside your veins. [Prince Rama] is physical music that evokes the
spirit world; it rocks, but it soars too; creating a soundtrack for some kind of apocalypse.” - AllMusic
