Arkaean seeks to manifest ancient, natural wisdom with the use of modern tools and technologies.

In the juxtaposition of organic recordings with purely synthetic processes new environments are revealed, alien yet familiar. A soundscape of primordial life bubbling away in a parallel universe, or the chatter of chimeric critters on a distant Earth-like planet. There is knowledge in the electrons and there is kindness in the 1s and 0s if we are mindful of what we ask from them.

He had his debut EP released on Silent Season and is supported by Oslated, Ambient Soundscape, Insight Podcast, Cosmic Leaf, Dub Techno TV, and NTS Radio.

Other VA tracks released on Outtallectuals, Kornarion.

Cinnamint is a Sofia-based digital live artist, analogue-spinning DJ and a prominent underground contributor.

With her calm style she is guiding through groovy experimental techno, minimal and ambient.

Eric Cloutier’s standards are representative of the pre-social media craze and arguably the old adage of letting music speak for itself. Cloutier’s twenty-plus year commitment has been built upon his integrity as a DJ and authority as a selector. A self-described "record digging psychopath," one only has to refer to his mix of highly sought after cuts from Driftwood Records to see the lengths Cloutier will go to in order to procure the perfect selection. This is truly Cloutier’s nature - one of zeal and infatuation towards the warm, dubby, hypnotic house and techno that has come to characterize his sound as well as his masterful ability to bridge the gap between dance music’s past and its future.

An exception to the norm, Cloutier is not one to capitalize on his Detroit origins. Moving to New York in his 20’s, he became a regular face at The Bunker where he began to further define his innate style of body orientated music. Now situated in Berlin, where he often shows up behind the decks of niche alcoves as well as the world’s best clubs, Cloutier’s reputation as an unequivocal, dexterous force is increasingly becoming one of note. His talents as a producer have also been growing of late, with the establishment of his own imprint Palinoia, Greek for “the obsessive repetition of an act until it is perfected or mastered.” The label has become the new home and optimization for Cloutier’s evolving undertakings. Through Palinoia, Cloutier manages to further synthesize slick, dubby club music to slide into his DJ sets as well as feature lesser known talent he's discovered. He’s a DJ for whom quality - above all else - is the watchword.

Coming from the Land of the Sun, Klara is a prominent artist creating her mark on the global psychedelic, deep and hypnotic techno scene. Her musical talent blossomed in early childhood and nourished in a classical music school as a soprano singer. After mutual band attempts as a teen, she returns to her psychedelic roots, rediscovering a new sense of meaning between the technological and organic realms.

She started her DJ-ing career as a resident of the all-girl techno crew Code XX's events in 2015 and is responsible for some of the most forward-thinking electronic sounds coming from North Macedonia. A few years later she starts producing and soon after presents her music in various authentic concert settings such as an ambient live act in a Planetarium, AV concert in the Macedonian philharmonic hall, a live concert in an 18th-century church. With her techno live act, she appeared on various regional and international festivals, and warehouses. For the past two years, she specializes further in the fields of audio design and production by answering other professional services such as mastering and tutoring.

She has recently appeared with her original works on VA compilations for Warok Music, Charybdis, Deep Electronics, as well as presented some of her yet unreleased music on the Hypnus Records - The Memoir.

The desire to transform nature’s vibrations into sonic soundscapes is an inevitable part of her journey which may be perceived through her creative work. With her comprehensive DJ and live performances, highly induced by her deep philosophical background and psychological practice, Klara has grown into an artist able to bring a special kind of transcendental state to each of her shows.

Inspired by her ambient project Vedis, she collides those two worlds and brings the Lāsya Project to life. Hosting a monthly show focused on atmospheric music in a local online radio, she started inviting artists and labels to showcase their work.

A sound artist from Serbia, constantly seizing various fragments of life, thus creating weird, curious and ambiguous soundscapes - ranging from ambient, muddy dub, to organic phantasies.

The showcase of his spectrum of inspiration can be grasped via his debut album released on Shimmering Moods Records. He is also hosting a radio show called "Ekspedicija" on radio Aparat, discovering a diverse concept of genres and stories of multifarious musicians.

As a founding member of the ISKLJUČI SE underground audio-visual project, Knower with his fellowers offers a multi-sensory experience for the ever-evolving invite-only crew.
