JKS translates a decade of drumming experience into a magnetic exploration of rhythm, weight, and movement, a journey through the sounds that shaped him long before ever touching an electronic drum machine. Rooted in techno, his music is percussive, hypnotic, and textured, with sexy driving grooves, evolving layers, and a raw, physical energy that feels both fierce and deeply seductive. JKS skillfully navigates between chaos and control, drawing from UK bass, 140, broken techno, and many other influences with effortless precision.

An active force in the underground for over ten years, JKS first emerged as a founding member of Molekül, later forging his own path with the creation of Smile Sessions in 2020. The label has now grown into a space for new talent, helping emerging artists find their voice while staying true to the spirit of the scene.

------------------

747 is a Canadian DJ and producer known for his emotive acid-tinged works. His music is a constant evolution with a mixture of lush pads, dreamy soundscapes, and the sound of the 303. Inspired by the sounds of Berlin, Detroit, and the acid legends, his sound is high-fidelity yet old-school, uplifting yet melancholic, a journey with no destination. 

His breakthrough came with the widely acclaimed Aurora Centralis EP, which quickly established 747 as a leading voice in the acid techno scene. The title track became a global favorite, captivating floors around the world with its emotional depth. He followed up with the eight-track Paleo series on Aquaregia, an ambitious record that further defined his sound and built a dedicated following around his melancholic take on acid. In 2019, his first full-length album The Gate of Life marked a shift toward 90s-inspired trance, introducing a whimsical tone to the often more serious atmosphere of his earlier work.

2025 sees the release of his second full-length studio album, Pacific Spirit. An ode to his hometown of Vancouver in the Pacific Northwest, the album represents a distinct departure from his techno sound of the past decade into the new territory of jungle. Despite the change in tempo, the record remains resolute to the sound he has developed over the years, fusing jungle breaks with the sounds of 90s trance and the 303.

Max Cooper is an electronic composer, multi-disciplinary artist, music label founder and former scientist who has carved out a unique space in music and visual art.

He holds a PhD in computational biology at the same time as being the first contemporary electronic musician to perform at the ancient Acropolis theatre in Athens and one of the first clutch of musicians to produce in Dolby Atmos.

Cooper has enquired for over 15 years through music, collaborations, and his label Mesh, to explore the intersections between the arts and sciences with installations, performances, immersive experiences, online media, music videos and live events.  Anchored throughout is his emotive approach, connecting how ideas and forms feel, in a manner accessible to us all. 
 
As an artist synonymous with the evolution of club culture, Cooper honed his craft as a DJ with a 10 year residency at legendary Midlands techno event Firefly where he formed a foundational relationship with Architecture Social Club, with whom he still collaborates on extravagant immersive installations.

"I want to encourage the acceptance of electronic music as an art form like any other. Bringing electronic music and abstract audio-visual projects into concert halls, museums and galleries is liberating - the art world opens up doors to communicate in ways that aren’t possible elsewhere."
  
Pivoting from computational biology to electronic music might not seem like the most natural career transition, but for Cooper the commonalities are obvious:
 
"In both fields, you're in a sense, free. Free from the limits of living systems, free from the limits of corporeal sound. The only constraints are in your mind."
