BEZIER -
Bézier is the moniker of all-live-analog electronic musician Robert Yang from San Francisco. He writes hooks, patterns and melodies in an automatic, stream of consciousness fashion. Memory and nostalgia play a big part in his music. Influences range from the futuristic landscape of Syd Mead to the melodic energy of Patrick Cowley and the subdued, hidden motifs of My Bloody Valentine’s “Loveless.” Bézier blends elements of Hi-NRG and dark dance that drive these mysterious underwater instrumentals.

REDREDRED -
formerly of duo Primary Colors, Michael Wood began this project in 2012, taking inspiration from Front 242, Einsturzende Neubauten, Throbbing Gristle, Nietzsche and Sartre. Wood utilizes a simple setup of vintage analog synthesizers and drum machines, and records them on reel-to-reel. Damaged angular rythms, futuristic mutuant industrial.

INHALT (DJ SET)
Consisting of European and East Coast natives– Matia Simovich & Bryan Gibbs– INHALT’s core operative strategy is of sonic fidelity and integrity rather than nostalgia. Having experienced the downfall of the music industry and professional studio system while working at Asphodel Records/ Recombinant Media Labs, INHALT needed to create their own creative working environment. Thus, they designed and built The Bunker Studio, developed around an integrative ideology and employing the best of vintage and modern technologies and techniques. They’ve honed their sound–sometimes referential to the raw electronics of Kraftwerk or the drive of Moroder disco–but ultimately their own interpretation of the border between the past and the present.
