The Glitch Mob

edIT, Ooah, and Boreta are The Glitch Mob, the straight crunkest bunch of music masters this side of oblivion; their sets of the dirtiest, stickiest, nastiest, most insane bass licks make dancers' brains explode.
The Glitch Mob is dropping the filthy sounds of the future up and down the West Coast and around the globe, crunking out crowds left and right and conquering the bodies of all who stumble into the insane dance riot that is a Glitch Mob show.

Artist Type: 

Nosaj Thing

Los Angeles producer Nosaj Thing crafts stately, ethereal synth-based instrumental hip-hop, with influences that range from Boards of Canada and DJ Shadow to Danny Elfman and Erik Satie. An L.A. native, Jason Chung was inspired at an early age by the hip-hop radio stations that the bus driver would play on his way to elementary school, and particularly by the Beat Junkies' turntablism on Power 106.

Dizz1

Dizz1 has been drumming since age 8, started scratching at 17 and has been making beats for about 7 years. He was invited to the Red Bull Music Academy in Barcelona in 2008 and has toured internationally performing everywhere from the Sydney Opera house to London’s Corsica Studios. He is currently working on a project with Om'Mas Keith from Sa-Ra creative partners (his raps on Dizz1’s beats) and has worked in the studio with Mark Pritchard and Steve Spacek (live project in the works) and Stereotyp (Vienna).

Ghost mutt

There are multiple artists that share this name: 1. Ghost Mutt is from Brighton UK- Expect sparkling synth arpeggios, chunky rhythms, chopped up divas and dirty bass ... oh, and maybe a few dollops of new jack swing. He is resident at Brightons acclaimed Donky Pitch club night alongside Slugabed
Check his recent interview and mix for Sonic Router: http://bit.ly/ghostm_sr 2. Ghost Mutt are a lovely little 'beach gothic' band from Airey's Inlet, Victoria. They make some sweet, sweet indie and they pull off a tight, energetic live show in their incredibly skinny jeans.

Baths

For mercurial Los Angeles music-maker Will Wiesenfeld, Baths has been a long time coming. The 21-year-old has spent the better part of his days living amidst “pleasant” and “unremarkable” in the suburbs of the San Fernando Valley, so perhaps it’s due to a general lack of local inspiration that Wiesenfeld’s own work has never fit into a prefab box of its own. Over the last six years, under the handle of [Post-Foetus], Wiesenfeld has gainfully explored the intersections and outer reaches of both electronic and acoustic music.
