ANDROID CARTEL
Since their inception on Chris Fortier’s Fade Records in 2007, Android Cartel has made a steady climb into the international underground dance music scene. Their brand of big room techno has been supported by taste making DJs Carl Cox, John Digweed, Luciano, Hernan Cattaneo, and many others.
In 2009 Android Cartel made waves with their signature EP on Steve Lawler’s ViVa MUSiC, with their track Robotic Redemption. Since that time, they’ve managed to secure signatures on established and respected labels petFood, Thoughtless Music, Rawthentic, Sleaze, and Noice!.Besides showcasing their sound on other labels, they have also managed to create two imprints of their own that have garnered much support from the house and techno communities. The first label, Sketchbook, holds techno as a focal point and is an outlet for artists to not only share their full productions, but also strip down their productions and offer their creations in a format that compliments modern DJ technology. It's an exciting new paradigm for the cutting edge world of electronic dance music, shattering the notion of a track being finished product. Sketchbook gives a sneak peak into the way many, if not all, digital tracks will be sold in the future - a precursor of things to come.
The second label, Riff Raff, is a tech house and house label that was started as a platform for associates of Android Cartel to showcase and share their productions. It’s a more relaxed medium, but has had releases supported by Danny Tenaglia, Loco Dice, Maceo Plex, SLAM, Marco Carola, Carlo Lio, Butch, and many others.
Besides producing and running the record labels, Android Cartel has also built up a solid DJ reputation on the Southern California club and festival circuit. As of late, the duo has performed at notable festivals Electric Daisy Carnival, Ultra Music Festival Miami, Lightning in a Bottle, and Beyond Wonderland. They have also played along side Steve Lawler, Nic Fanciulli, Heidi, and Audiofly, Josh Wink, Guy J, and Robert Babicz in Hollywood’s biggest nightclubs like The Avalon, The Playhouse, and The Vanguard.
TERRAKROMA
Terrakroma has certainly carved out a niche in time with there unique, playful sound. Over the last 5 years these three guys have been winning over the hearts of lovers of all kinds of music. Starting off as a psy-trance band back in 2001, Earthbag and Pachakroma’s paths eventually led them to Los Angeles, where they joined up with Armando and discovered the music, the people and the community that would change their paths forever. Their live set is mainly composed of deep basses and progressive electronic sounds, it is very unique in its style, experimenting with an organic arrangement of psychedelic sounds. Terrakroma has shared the stage with major labels and artists including Shpongle, Antix, Vibrasphere, Shadow FX, Astronivo, Perfect Stranger, and many others.
SAMMY BLISS
Originating from New York, Sammy found himself in Los Angeles in the early 90’s, which is where, ultimately, his DJ career flourished as part of the LA Underground scene. One half of the team that brings you The Woogie Stage at lightning in a Bottle each year, he’s also the co-founder of Pocket Underground, a DJ collective and goofball party crew based out of Los Angeles. Having recently moved his family to the East Bay, the Pocket vibe will soon be infiltrating the San Francisco bay area as well. Known for bringing the big, chunky Tech-House and dirty Techno, Sammy plays annually at Coachella and LIB, in addition to making asses shake at Spundae LA, Avalon, SF Love Parade, Burning Man, Fuente Eterno & Alma Paradiso (Mexico), Elysium Festival, Lucent L’Amore and more underground parties than he can remember. He’s a resident DJ with The Do LaB, NinjaSkillz and, of course, Pocket Underground.
