UPSAMMY

As electricity blossoms and leafs glisten, upsammy creates interpretative space, cleverly paradoxical in its concurrent comfort and desolation. With a keen ear for crystalline melody and intricate rhythm, her music takes cues from electro and IDM, breathing a certain perpetuity and spatiality, sliding across tempo scales, while retaining an organic touch as a gentle hum of nature digitised.
Guided by an adventurous and narrative approach, this vividness is present in her DJ sets as well. Through these impressions she consolidated a firm position in the contemporary leftfield music world, which includes a residency at De School and invitations to pinnacle venues such as Panorama Bar and Robert Johnson.

LDY OSC

Alyssa Auvinen Barrera is an electronic musician, and DJ since 2007 who was born in Mexico and grew up on the border in Laredo, Texas. LDY OSC became her DJ/Live artist name in 2018 and her other project Artefactos de Dolor is a synth-wave/post-punk band which released a double LP called La Niña in 2017. In 2014, while studying music and sound engineering in NYC, Alyssa began to build DIY synthesizers and eurorack modules. That would eventually lead her to taking a synthesizer repair course by the Analog Lab in 2018 while in the process of moving to Vienna. In September 2020, Alyssa began her second Bachelors degree in Electronics, at the University of Applied Sciences Vienna. Her music discography began in 2018 with an EP on The Bunker New York.

TIN MAN

Of Finnish descent, but born and raised in California, Tin Man now has a home in Vienna, a town perfectly suited to his deep and moody productions. Tin Man has acclaimed releases on the Finnish record label Sähkö / Keys of Life, Cheap Records from Vienna, and continues with new releases on his own imprint, Global A. While Tin Man’s output is diverse in its references, certain underpinnings can be heard throughout. There is always a strong reference to Acid House music, as well as a strong reference to Ambient and Electronic Pop music from the past 30 years. Tin Man’s newer output features his voice and follows a “concept album” format. Tin Man also continues with his passion for Acid House by continuing to produce retro-acid tracks and playing live shows regularly. These live shows celebrate early house music, its hypnotic charm, and its blissful raw energy.
