Dirtybird
Dirtybird
Range, appeal and a massive dose of nasty, gritty bass are
the three chief weapons every Dirtybird artist has in his quiver, but Ardalan
seems to be the peak culmination of all those assets in one wieldy point. This
young archer has had the incomprehensible luck to fall into crew with his
idols, be reared by their best and given some of their most guarded musical
secrets, then hoisted to a platform to blare his prodigious beats from places
where most creators can only dream of being. Born in Tehran, Iran, Ardalan
Noghre-Kar possesses a peculiar, fresh perspective on music genesis without
even trying. His mixes, remixes and dubs are known for their sass, energy and
wickedly wry samples that snap like a wet towel to the face, but his original
tracks are where his efforts shine, like those released with Justin Martin-Mr.
Spock, a 2010 party anthem charted by Diplo and Jesse Rose, and Lezgo, charted
by Dog Blood (Skrillex and Boyz Noise)-and those soon-to-be-released on his own
EP with Dirtybird. Its no wonder hes been given the nod by everyone from Papa
Dirtybird himself (Claude Von Stroke) and A-Trak to those who are charting his
remixes, like Maya Jane Coles, Audiojack, and Riva Starr, the last of whom he
has an upcoming remix for to be released on Snatch. The greatest strength in
Ardys music is his ability to whip out hits that work equally well from the
dankest basements to the most opulent dancefloors; sounds that satisfy those
with diverse tastes who can unite under his single agenda of having a good
time.
THELEM - UK
Chapters, Orientis Records, Innamind Recordings, Osiris,
Arkital
UK artist Thelem has secured himself as a humbling and
experimental producer within the wide spectrum of electronic music. The genre
morphing latest release Third Time Lucky features notable stylistic elements
from dubstep, hip hop, grime, drum & bass and trap. His well crafted
dynamics, choice instrumentation and considered beats bring an all together
weighed and diversified direction for Thelem, focusing on a new characterizing
flavor and distinguishing progressive sound.
The already recognized international touring from Thelem has
seen him on appearance throughout Europe, Australia as well as intensive
coverage in the USA. 2018 will see Thelem elaborate on an established
underground fan base with an imposing touring schedule and impressive live
performance ethic thats complemented by his modest attitude and raw passion for
the music he sculpts. His innovative and interesting approach will see Thelem
further himself as an underground titan and pioneer of his exclusive sound.

"ONHELL" is a phonetic respelling of the Spanish
pronunciation of angel and the first name of Los Angeles based composer,
producer and DJ, Angel Rubio-Hale. ONHELLs releases on Plastician's Terrorhythm
Recordings, Truth's Deep, Dark & Dangerous, and Fractures Astrophonica
exhibit his range within the experimental bass music sphere.
Consistently exploring beyond the bounds of the prevalent,
he skillfully integrates his influences and inspirations into compositions that
are distinctly true to his originality. These skills are exemplified on his
most recent EP Linden and the video he directed, produced and edited for the
title track. ONHELL is currently working on commercial sound design projects,
his next EP for Terrorhythm and will soon release the second installment of his
remixtape series on Dome of Doom.
