Nedry
www.myspace.com/nedrymakemusic
Nedry is Matt Parker, Chris Amblin and Ayu Okakita. Nedry create music to bounce to, rock-out to and get lost in. Their beautiful sound and arresting beats are from and for the 'post-' generation. Their sound is dark and ambient but broken-up and lifted by moments of glitch and fuzzy, melodic guitars. Both live and on record they use innovative production techniques to create a truly original sound.
Nedry started performing, producing and recording in summer 2008. In a little over a year they've made waves on the UK electronic music scene, sharing stages with the likes of Pivot (Warp), Maps (MUTE), The Gaslamp Killer (Brainfeeder) and Daedelus (Ninja Tune). Nedry have steadily gathered critical acclaim since they self-released their 'SZ EP', and support from the likes of Q Magazine and The Times as well as airplay on a host of radio stations including XFM, Resonance FM, BBC 6Music and BBC Radio 1 has assured them as one of the most exciting bands to emerge in 2009. BBC Radio 1 DJ and new music guru Huw Stephens in particular has championed the Nedry sound, inviting them to the famous Maida Vale studios to record a live session for his show.
"...sent shiver's down my spine".like Thom Yorke's Eraser with a bit of a Dubstep vibe and some Post-Rock influences".
Huw Stephens - Radio One Introducing
"Intriguing and fantastic!" John Kennedy - XFM
"We love Nedry on this show!" Tom Robinson - BBC 6 Music
"...A big soundscape, absolutely fabulous...melodic guitar, electronic sounds, ambient noises and lots of distortion. Some of the songs really kick off, it's fantastic!" Ruth Barnes - Resonance FM
"Gently skittering electronics and slow-building, spacious ambience - Nedry's gorgeous, minimal soundscapes are tailor made for the wee hours." Q Magazine
"Synthed drums, ecstatic guitar. Very much liking it. A sorta apocalyptic hip-pop."

Devilman
www.myspace.com/devilmanattack
Devilman is the new doom-dub-electro-psych-hip-hop project from the legendary gabba-IDM artist DJ SCOTCH EGG and the dub-hero DOKKEBI Q.
Their sound, like their name suggests, is dark. Darker than dark. Searing beats cut through bowel shifting bass to pummel you with the most exciting crossover of grime, dubsteb and electro that you're likely to hear.
Youth In Colour
www.myspace.com/youthincolour
This London based band mix beats, bleeps and harmonies with gorgeous results. New ep It's Difficult Sometimes, I Know will make you think of all your favourite songs, places, and films, it will make you want to move, and it'll make you want to press play when it's played out. Don't miss them live!
