jump/cut (DF Trams Live Band Project)

jump/cut synthesizes a bent sonic mayhem from the rapid-fire polyrhythms of drum n' bass, shapeshifting textures of ambient soundscapes, and hypnotic trip-hop groove impulses. using "live" drums, bass, guitar synth, vibraphone & dj they create a neo-electronica full sensory alternative for dance floor victims that flows naturally and unobtrusively into all corners of the room.

Waveform Recordings

The WAVEFORM label began life in the summer of '93, when a nomadic being from England's Beyond label (inventors of the term "Ambient Dub") visited the UFO filled canyons of Sedona, AZ, and mind melded with a radio ephedra type who was also exploring chilled ambient beats from the UK and Europe. Twenty minutes later, WAVEFORM hatched and we began our journey of establishing a genre of music we call "exotic electronica."

In May, 1994 from Sedona, we brought our first release to market, with national distribution through the Navarre Corporation. The highly praised, best selling compilation of UK artists known as "ONE A.D." (volume one ambient dub), was followed soon thereafter by Birmingham, England's HIA, the Higher Intelligence Agency and their debut and now out of print release, "COLOURFORM."

And the rest as we say is history...

Bruce Haack

Bruce Haack(1931-1988) was a musician and composer, and a pioneer within the realm of electronic music.

Haack worked extensively on children's music, releasing more music and seeing more success in this field of music than in any other. Despite not having any formal knowledge in electronics, Haack built his own musical instruments, like "The Magic Wand," "The Dermatron" (a synthesizer that was played by leading an electrical current through physical contact with another person) and the "People-odion."

Most of the Haack/Nelson albums remain unreleased in the United States, though they are available through Japanese imports and via peer-to-peer file-sharing programs.

submodern

submodern is dallas bethune and art kerns, two friends who have been performing live electronic music together for several years. their music -- melodic, moody, and spacey with bloops, bleeps and beats -- has drawn comparisons to other melodic electronic artists such as orbital, black dog, and early autechre while still sounding uniquely submodern. their live sets are known for their free flowing nature, somewhat of a rarity in modern electronic music, with no predetermined order or length to the songs and no single computer sequencer controlling everything.

Monta Music

 

Their music is a story of brothers working it out as brothers do best.

Dedric Moore and Delaney Moore are the manipulators sharing their passion for dub, blunted jazz, post-rock, ambient and abstract funk.

Monta has set out on a mission to explore these ideas with the mindset that everything is open for inclusion in their musical spectrum. Monta have also set a goal to ignore the urge to "move the dancefloor" and make music purely for the listening experience...

Ishq

Ishq are based in St ives Cornwall in the uk and have been writing music since about 1992 in one form or another originally inspired by the bands in the days uk free festival and by many of the bands who played at those rather crazy events. They began jamming with a number of people in what became extended and un-recorded spaced out ambient jams and once or twice played themselves at festivals out of the back of a van to rather confused looking trippers.

 

Ishq also wrote and released under various names a number of early acid house and trance tracks and was 1/3rd of 'Crystal moon ' who released an album also on Kinetix in 1997. Their album 'orchid' was well received and a series of live events followed this. Ishq are currently working on the next Ishq album and this will be coming out in 2005.
