MAN FROM URANUS
MFU is a one-man surreal groove unit, an electronic music maverick fuelled by defi ance. Attending one of Man From Uranus’ concerts is an unforgettable experience. Using battered organs, synths and tapes he sends blocks of abstract analogue electronica parping across space. Elephants storm across lunar deserts and insidious lounge muzak tuneworms are unleashed upon the unwary listener. It’s part avant- garde musical art, part bouncy children’s TV theme tunes. And it’s hard to tell which is which when Man From Uranus puts wellington boots on his hands and plays the theremin. This is the beauty of his act, it demonstrates the purity of one-man bandship: do what you want to do… because you feel like it.

BEW
Experimental/electronic producer Barry Cullen releases audio and video work under the name BEW (Barry’s Electric Workshop). Barry blends sounds and images from old junk with hi-fi  sounds and graphics, trying to find a balance between the new and recycled sources.

GOOD SOOP DJS
Good Soop is J.R. Busteed and M.G. Staley. One has a fondness for Cosmic Disco and 60s Girl Groups, the other likes Ye-Ye and Turkish Psych. Together they specialise in European Rock ‘n’ Roll, New York Noise, Avant Hip-Hop and Spiritual Jazz, among other things.
