OFFICIAL BIO
Regarded upon his 2006 arrival as a promising beatmaker looming in the shadows of J Dilla, Madlib, waterfalls and Dabrye, Steven Ellison -- known as Flying Lotus -- nullified all comparisons only two years later with Los Angeles. On that album, his first of five for the Warp label, Ellison distilled a uniquely crisp, spasmodic, and heady sound with elements of hip-hop, avant-garde jazz, IDM, and dubstep. While the abovementioned producers fueled Ellison, he had also been excited as a youngster by the '90s West Coast rap classics that combined programming and live instrumentation. His sound continued to develop as he put his own twist on the approach, recording with a crop of jazz musicians including the indispensable likes of bassist Thundercat and strings master Miguel Atwood-Ferguson. This process began with the turbulent 2010 set Cosmogramma and peaked in terms of acclaim in 2014 with You're Dead!, which crashed the Top 20 of the Billboard 200 and spawned the Kendrick Lamar collaboration "Never Catch Me," a Grammy nominee for Best Dance Recording. Ellison devoted a few years to various forms of film work and the operation of his revered Brainfeeder label, and returned in 2019 with Flamagra, his second consecutive album to top Billboard's Dance/Electronic chart.

Bio:

       PartyWave is an emerging artist in forward-thinking bass music. Displaying a large range of styles in his production, his DJ sets are full of diversity and energetic vibes. His music carries an array of bass, melody, and a unique way of merging genres together to create a new, fresh sound.

Opal Ocean is a powerhouse acoustic guitar duo based in Melbourne, Australia, made up of Alex Champ and Nadav Tabak. They defy expectations — pushing two guitars to sound like a full band by fusing flamenco flair, rock energy, and progressive textures.  ￼

Originally busking in streets, the pair honed their craft live and built their following organically.  ￼ Their breakthrough came with the viral hit “J.A.M.”, which amassed tens of millions of views and helped bring them international attention.  ￼

In 2016 they released their debut full-length Lost Fables, and in 2020 came The Hadal Zone, a bold evolution in their sound featuring collaborations such as with Jordan Rudess (of Dream Theater).  ￼ They continued to push boundaries with arrangements that feel cinematic and immersive.  ￼

On stage, Opal Ocean are known for their intense energy, tight chemistry, and the ability to transmute two guitars (and clever pedal work) into rich, full-bodied soundscapes that surprise listeners with what is possible with minimal instrumentation.  ￼ They’ve toured across Europe, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, and played major festivals — performing in venues and settings where audiences often can’t believe it’s just two people on stage.  ￼

As independent artists, Opal Ocean continue to explore new territories in acoustic and instrumental music, challenging the limits of what two guitars can achieve.  ￼

Dirtwire is a traveler’s collage of Earth-borne instruments and electronic sounds foraged from Electric Forest to the mountains of Tuva. From their home on the west coast of the United States to far-flung destinations all over the world, these troubadours are welcomed for speaking the most unifying language there is: music.

Every live set is a magician’s surprise show, an invitation to experience instruments that are usually heard only as samples in electronic music. It is a celebration of the art of the instrument, not just the sound you can record from it. Future revival, swamptronica, spaghetti-step, electro-twang — whatever you call Dirtwire’s music, what matters is that you can dance to it, as sure as a lizard dances in the desert.

Dirtwire, comprised of lifelong friends and musicians Evan Fraser, David Satori, and Mark Reveley, are touring now in support of their new record “Road Goes All Night”. The road goes further yet, friends. Come see where it leads at a show near you.
