Struma+Iodine mit Hieroglyphic Being, Mama Snake, Tin Man, Altroy & Quehenberger

HIEROGLYPHIC BEING 
https://hieroglyphicbeingofficial.bandcamp.com/
Jamal Moss, aka Hieroglyphic Being, remains at all-times a radical one-off musical explorer, a resolute pioneer of an avant-garde dance music aesthetic taking lineage from the founding fathers of acid house such as Ron Hardy and Adonis, and pushing the musical form to its own limits, adding his own harder almost industrial edge to this unique sound, which Moss sometimes describes as ‘Outsider House’ or, referencing the earlier avant-garde musical resident and pioneer, Sun Ra – ‘Rhythmic Cubism’ and ‘Cosmic Be-Bop’.

Chicago’s musical universe continues to push-further forward today with artists such as Hieroglyphic Being, all continuing to explore radical new music while drawing upon the city’s decidedly Afro-futurist lineage. His music has appeared on Ghostly/Spectral, Warp, Ninja, Axis and his own Mathematics Recordings.

MAMA SNAKE

Mama Snake – a DJ, founder and owner of the mixed media arts label Amniote Editions and junior doctor operating out of Copenhagen, who’s bringing her viperine sounds all around the globe. Her love of melodic, warm and fast paced sounds has secured a steady following in the world of electronic music and Snake’s no bullshit and fun approach to DJing has brought her to clubs and festivals around the world.

TIN MAN
https://tinmanofficial.bandcamp.com/
The named master of the modern Acid scene, Tin Man continues to evolve and invigorate with each and every release. Over the last decades the man born Johannes Auvinen has explored an ever evolving sound palette that touches on house, techno and ambient. Most recently the California born producer and live act has been responsible for reinvigorating the acid scene with his unique and cerebral manipulations of real Roland 303s. His tracks have been laced with slow and subtly shifting patterns that are infused with a very real machine soul and exude captivating warmth.

https://philipquehenberger.bandcamp.com/
Philipp Quehenberger’s music has existed as a consistent strain amongst the Austrian underground for the last 20 years. His output is a cracking combination of dance floor zeal and deep disco disorientation. A perpetually rotating sphere which blends genres whilst bending the body and mind.

ALPHA TRACKS
https://soundcloud.com/alpha-tracks-official
Felix Benedikt aka Alpha Tracks is one of Austria’s most successful techno exports. When trance was rediscovered by the techno underground a few years ago, he was right at the forefront. Since then, he has been considered one of the figureheads of the genre. The producer and DJ, who was socialised in the Viennese Cheap environment, harks back to the rave era of the early nineties in his high-BPM sets, ignoring speed limits and taste doctrines.
