Seathasky - Matthew Centonze, born May 23, 1984, started composing music in 1999 at the age of 15, not unlike many other musicians of this generation. What differentiated Matthew from his peers was his unmatched ability to reinvent himself and start something new whenever his sound was getting stale. While he has been influenced by a number of musicians but has always kept true to his own musical philosophy: creating emotional, beautiful and unique pieces of music.
Submatic - In 1992 Submatic began producing with his first computer: an ATARI ST 1040 along with hardware synthesizers like the Yamaha DX7, Roland 2080, Juno 60, Korg and Notator as sequencing software. Back then he was producing Techno, House and Ambient.
When Logic Audio hit the market, Submatic switched up his style. His friend DJ Amaning introduced him to the important basics of producing Drum and Bass. The newfound fascination with DnB led to Submatic linking up with the Millenium Beats Foundation (MBF Crew);
now known as (Beatknowlogists). Together, Deefader, Dan-e, Tobez, S.Finesse, MC Soultrain and Submatic made for good, friendly vibes and legendary parties in Munich.
Representative of MBF from Munich with a wide variety of releases on SoulBros Recordings, Offworld Recordings and Extent VIP, this eclectic artist is a key player in the world wide DnB Scene.

Micken - Sam Moggach aka Micken was first introduced to electronic music by videogames in his childhood. Since then he has been interested in how they work. In the late 90s he was living in Calgary, Alberta and heard trance for the first time. A few years later he started going to raves and dancing around like a fool. The inspiration from experiencing the music live and the need to understand how it works eventually led him to producing and djing as a hobby. In 2003 Micken began signing his "freeform hardcore" tunes to a canadian indie label but then stopped in 2007 to pursue his career in Toronto. This is where he discovered drum & bass but it wasn't until moving to Montreal that he fell in love with it. Inspired by the breadth and depth of the dnb sound as well as the bassdrive.com djs he began producing it. Now he is influenced by the sounds of many great dnb producers. He spends his spare time mixing tunes, lending an ear or creating a vibe.
