Originally from Kanagawa, Japan Saskia is "a core figure within Bristol’s ever-prolific underground scene” whose work spans releases for Detroit Underground and Accidental Meetings, multimedia performances at Mutek.jp and elsewhere, and is a much in demand DJ known for sets melting UK bass, dub and experimental techno, like in the Crack mag mix to the right.

Paul Purgas is half of acclaimed electronic production duo Emptyset (Thrill Jockey, Subtext), as well as an artist and researcher whose recent work around the lost histories of Indian electronic music has been shown at Tate, Tramway and via his own BBCR3 documentary 'Electronic India’. With a deep knowledge of the histories of electronic and club music, he co-runs longstanding London techno party Casa Delirium and was a Frieze Mag DJ in residence.

Sarahsson is a composer, producer, instrument designer and DJ who has performed internationally over the last decade, including at Rewire Festival, Berghain, Volksbühne, Intonal and Café OTO, scored runway shows for Acne Studios and Maldito, and crafted a lovely mix for FACT a few years back. Recent work includes guesting on Rabit's vaunted 'Stranger in a Strange Land' LP (Halcyon Veil) and making the 'Glow' EP in collaboration with Silver Ley.

Jennifer Lucy Allan is a writer, broadcaster and BBC Radio 3 Late Junction presenter whose DJ sets draw on decades of immersion in underground and experimental music via her influential record label Arc Light Editions and as a hugely knowledgeable music journalist with a Phd in the history of foghorns and a current special interest in Japanese post-punk.

Lia Mazzari is a Daphne Oram award-winning sound artist and researcher working with open-source sound transmission technologies in environmental research. Her solo and collaborative works span activist radio labs, cryospheric sound transmissions, whip cracking performances and experimental cello concerts.

Al Cameron is a founder of The Brunswick Club, Music to Come and curator of Bristol New Music fest.
