3CUSPID is one of the more purely white noise oriented acts on Israeli modern music scene of sample-based pocket-punk. Combining deft, mid or slow-tempo beats, well-chosen jazz and funk figures, sparse scratching, and even the odd randomized OST-rap, 3CUSPID bridge the gap between dusty B-side street sounds, hip-hop based on dialogs from old movies and Japan's new school of psychotropic beat scientists. Formed by Alex Suris, Jack Friedman and Jos Molchanoff in the early 2000's, 3CUSPID, unlike many of Israel's abstract beat scene's acid house-steeped big-name artists, trace their roots to American jazz and funk (Mingus, Davis, Funkadelic, J. Hendrix, Trible and others).



Founded in 1999, Ulican derives its name from a word found in an Irish folktale meaning a funeral cry or lamentation, which perfectly describes the band's solemn and dark musical journey. Its music blends electronic, trip-hop, and post-punk influences from Portishead to Bauhaus. After a two-decade hiatus, Ulican returned in 2023, merging goth and electronica with mysticism, marking a new chapter.
