Claude Young's powers as a DJ are no joke. Since his early days twisting brains on dance floors with the classic 'Planet Earth' under the pseudonym Brother From Another Planet to his current fiery DJ sets, Claude is a top ranking DJ globally with a style uniquely his own, but bearing the stamp of his native Detroit. You may have heard your share of Detroit DJs over the years, but if you haven't heard Claude Young throw down... well, then... you might know half the story.

TODD SINES
Todd Sines' environments; real and virtual, from the flat fields of Ohio to the concrete jungle of New Works, have served as inspiration for his unique, hybrid sound. His post punk, industrial, and hip-hop upbringings, filtered through an obsession with analogue and early digital technology, resulted in stripped down electronic funk; before minimal was mnml -- it was just effective. Through his techno band, Body Release, with key Ohio players Titonton Duvanté;, Charles Noel [Archetyp] and Mike Szewczyk, they dabbled in early rave sounds before embarking on their own paths.
