Mlle Caro & Franck Garcia

One of the best-received albums of 2008 was the debut from Parisien DJ and songwriter, Mademoiselle Caro (key resident DJ at the legendary Rex Club in Paris for over 8 years), and her Perpignan-based collaborator, Franck Garcia. Brimming with a uniquely downbeat yet defiant sound that seemed to have one foot in modern-day tech-savvy Berlin and one in vintage indie austerity, 'Pain Disappears' was hailed by publications as diverse as The Times ('a modern classic'), Clash ('a melodic, melancholic masterpiece') and DJ Mag ('stunning emotive electro-pop').

Tom Gilmore, aka Ten Thousand Free Men & Their Families, or '10k', is a chipmusic/chipunk artist from Sydney, Australia. Tom has said that he has made many tracks since the early 2007 formation of '10k', but he has released very few and is now embarressed by a lot of the early material he had online! The '10k' discography to date is not extensive, but Tom has stated that there is much more to come. However, it will come with less haste and more thought put into the production and quality of the songs themselves.

Itch-E & Scratch-E

Inspired by the remnants of the post punk/electronic/noise scene of the 80's, and coinciding with the rise of "techno" and rave culture in the early 90’s, Itch-E & Scratch-E were born. During the years that followed Itch-E & Scratch-E, aka Andy Rantzen and Paul Mac, were at the forefront of a movement quickly gathering momentum. When The Boiler Room was added to the Big Day Out, Itch-E & Scratch-E were there, preaching their beats to the ravers, but importantly, also to the rock kids in Nirvana T-shirts. A cross-pollination had begun.
