Blunt Force is an Austin-based live electronic music group consisting of Brian Gustafson and Deniz Baykal. The duo brings a high-energy performance to the stage, combining live instruments and hard hitting bass. Their sets vary in both style and tempo, leaving no genre untouched.

Having played alongside artists such as Savoy, Break Science, Opiuo, Manic Focus, and The Floozies, Blunt Force has quickly risen as an up and coming live electronic music act. Just weeks after graduating college in the Winter of 2016, the duo packed their bags and headed off on their first tour, hitting 18 cities across the U.S. In the Fall of 2016, the pair landed themselves a spot on The Odyssey tour supporting All Good Records artist, Sunsquabi. Finally, in the Spring of 2017, the duo embarked on the Alone With You Tour with Bass Physics, hitting 15 Midwest cities and selling out a few massive venues, such as the famous Boulder Theater.

The duo has racked up multiple appearances at Euphoria Music Festival, Wakarusa, and many more. Blunt Force made their Alaska debut last summer at Euphoria Festival - Denali. With new music releases and impressive performances to look forward to, 2017 is already Blunt Force's biggest year yet.

Bio:
Austin native Jesse Brede has been setting dance floors afire with his original take on multi-genre bass-music since 1998, but his industry savvy doesn’t stop there. The self-taught entrepreneur has tried his hand and succeeded at nearly every endeavor in the business. From founding his own record label and talent agency to the practical application of video and sound technologies, Brede has become a staple in the bass community. 

Brede ventured into a new territory of music production in 2009, where he came to fully embody the definition of multi-genre bass music. Brede’s composition and DJ sets continuously defy the limits of any one particular category. An avid storyteller behind the decks, he has become notorious for affecting the emotions of listeners while teasing with expectation. Brede has shared the stage with a group of artists as diverse as his sound, such as Deadmau5, The Glitch Mob, Skrillex, Kaskade and Bonobo at highly-esteemed events. He has also established quite the reputation with appearances at Euphoria Camping and Music Festival, Great North Festival, Insomniac’s Nocturnal Festival and Art Outside. 

Brede founded Gravitas Recordings in 2011, a record label and creative collective that serves as a platform for artists to showcase their work. The label’s mantra is “Doing Good with Good Music”, making it more than just a music platform, but also an outlet to fulfill philanthropic initiatives. In true Brede fashion, the brand refuses to be compromised by genre limitations and continues to raise money for various charitable causes through different compilations. Gravitas has worked with over 300 artists to release over 110 EP, albums, and compilations. The brand’s primary focus is to release quality music that is accessible to anyone with Gravitas’ signature “pay-what-you-want” business model.

Jesse is also the owner of Lion’s Share Digital, a full-service digital media and web development firm that has worked with a plethora of clients in the music industry and beyond. In January 2014, Brede founded Pivotal Agency, a booking and management agency, with Cole Jones where he manages Beats Antique, CloZee, and Cristina Soto. 

In 2017, Jesse launched Gravitas Create which is a music production education platform and community. 

A true master of his art, Brede makes his work appear as effortless as play. He finds fulfillment in assisting and serving others, and his integrity speaks for itself. Expansion seems to be the universal theme when contemplating Jesse’s fierce future vision, as he would like to see all facets of the creative world represented in his daily life.

Electro/Soul moniker Krooked Drivers (formerly a duo) has been captivating ears ever since the launch of the Krooked Drivers musical vision in 2011. Once accompanied by Maddy O'Neal the duo split February of 2016 putting the Krooked Drivers duo to rest and leaving D'Albora to take on KD as a solo project. The mind now behind Krooked Drivers is Donnie D'Albora who is based out of Denver, Colorado and born and raised in New York. Krooked Drivers stays keeping the sounds of the past alive sampling vinyl records from past eras of time collaging breaks and organic elements creating an entirely new feeling and direction. Blending heavy hitting bass lines with neck breaking drum patterns and endless sample chops rest assured Krooked Drivers will take you on an emotion driven musical roller coaster ride that will leave you begging for more.

SOULS IN ACTION IS A DENVER BASED COLLABORATION OF YOUNG, HUNGRY, LIKE-MINDED INDIVIDUALS CREATING CHANGE THROUGH MUSIC, ART AND SOCIAL ACTIVISM.

Since 2009, Eminence Ensemble has provided people from all walks of life with a sense of community, a safe space for expression, a needed break from the pressures of life, and a thrilling rush of adrenaline through complex, yet digestible music that bridges the gap between the jam-band and more traditional music scenes.

The Colorado-based sextet, comprised of members Tanner Bardin [drums], Nick Baum [vocals, percussion], Wil Snyder [keyboard, synth], Zac Flynn [bass, synth, vocals], Dylan Gleit [guitar, vocals] & Justin Neely [guitar, vocals], has been steadily building their fan-base through explosive live shows featuring a unique conglomerate of genre-blending compositions. The archipelago of sonic worlds put forth by the band features elements of rock, funk, metal, electronic, soul, and hip-hop that together create an intricate foundation to be decorated by exploratory improvisational jams in a unique way, every show.

Gaining their following first as a live band, Eminence Ensemble learned to capture the crowd with high-energy performances and large-scale production, with a light show just as dynamic as the music. Although they mainly thrive in the jam scene, the band is recognized and loved by fans of all genres. Eminence Ensemble has become known for their complex song structures, harmonized dual-guitar lines, heavy bass drops, dense vocal harmonies, and powerful percussion, both on stage and in the studio.

The sextet focuses most on creating a one-of-a-kind show for their fans each night. Every set list is carefully constructed to capture the vibe of the night, resulting in a continuous energy exchange between the band and audience that strengthens with every cycle. With over 400 shows under their belt, Eminence Ensemble has proven their worth in the scene, playing festival slots at Summer Camp, Electric Forest, Camp Bisco, Wave Spell, Euphoria, Gem & Jam, The Werkout, Same Same But Different, and many others.
