Vicmari is undoubtedly one of South Africa’s most unique electronic music acts. His tracks which often contain hypnotic melodies and groovy bass lines are complemented by his affinity for acoustic, ambient sounds as well a good dose of classic House grooves.

Vicmari’s musical journey really began back in 2011 when he connected with Daniel Paul Behemann, founder of @slopemusic,  Eclipser Chaser and @cabinet-records in Germany. Daniel became somewhat of a mentor to the young artist guiding him through the early stages of his music career and encouraging him to develop his sound. As time passed their friendship grew stronger and Vicmari ended up becoming part of the @slopemusic  with his debut album ‘Audiodidact’ being released on the label in 2016. The album received support from the likes of @brendonmoeller , @cabdrivers , Pierre Estiene and before long all vinyl pressings of the album had sold out.

Following the relative success of the album, Vicmari began working on his live sets, bringing his productions to life by taking the dance floor on journeys of hypnotic grooves and transcendent melodies that quickly bloomed into the distinct sound he can now call his own. His live show has seen him grace the stages of events such as Rocking The Daisies, Afrika Burn, Cape Town’s Light House Festival, Ultra Festival and many more. His sets are a healthy mix of melody and mood all held down by warm and inviting grooves that would keep the energy simmering on any dancefloor.

b.sides (Brad King)

Brad's induction to underground electronic music came at a Sunday afters held in an abandoned auto repairs unit in East London. There he was introduced to some of the genuine masters of stylish, understated and elegant techno and house DJing: Christian AB, Junki Inoue & Sunday Afters founder Rob James. Inspired by this approach, they remained key influences to this day.

Brad is one of the youngest of the new crop of ‘digger’ DJs, who is gradually making his name through sharing his personal interpretations of the history of electronic dance music. Often blending seamlessly between techno, breaks, acid, electro, progressive house, tech house, downtempo and more.  His sets can often be unpredictable and unique, which always keeps the dancefloor guessing what’s next. With a focus on obscurity, many of his selections are in fact b sides (hence the name). Unafraid to go against trends, Brad aims to play music that stands the test of time. You will often hear music from all the decades in his sets ranging from the 80s 90s 00s to current. This vast collection allows brad to effortlessly match the energy to the setting. Whether it’s warmup or peak time, warehouse or intimate space, brad has a track for any location at any time.

When brad isn’t digging for records he’s working on his own productions. He has several releases on bandcamp, featuring Andy’s orbit and 5th sphere achieving support from Truly Madly, Bonus Dub, IN-FJ and many more.
