Sutekh:

Basé à San Francisco, Sutekh accumule les sorties de disques depuis 1997 sur les étiquettes fares telles Soul Jazz et Leaf d'Angleterre, Force Inc & Mille Plateaux d'Allemagne, Orthlorng Musork et Context aux États-Unis. Il a créé pratiquement de tous les genres du deep house minimal au techno dense au collage sonore dissonant en manipulant et en abusant des ordinateurs, échantillonneurs et différents instruments acoustiques. Il a performé dans des festivals, musées, boîtes de nuit dans plus de 20 pays sur 4 continents.

Since 1997, San Francisco-based Sutekh has released consistently inconsistent electronic music on labels such as Soul Jazz (UK), Leaf (UK), Force Inc./Mille Plateaux (Germany), Orthlorng Musork (USA), and his own Context. Manipulating and abusing computers, samplers, synthesizers, various acoustic instruments, and found sounds, he has created everything from deep, minimal house and techno to dense, dissonant noise collage. His live performances have taken place at festivals, museums, and night clubs in more than 20 countries on four continents.

Sutekh established Context Free Media and its associated record label in 1999.

Kit Clayton

Kit Clayton est ce qu'on appelle un ''nerds'' de sous-sol ou il passe de longues journées à épier sa grille de pixels 1024 X 768 entre le système d'opération et les logiciels de création numérique.

Les labels Cytrax, Delay, Drop Beat, Mille Plateaux, Parallel, Plug Research, Phthalo, ~Scape et Vertical Form ont profités de sa dépendance aux ordinateurs. Sa musique ecclectique se promène entre le techno minimal, le collage de bruits structurés et la manipulation de sons sous tous les angles possibles en respectant les productions ''Dub'' les plus traditionnelles.

Kit Clayton is a basement freak. with little sunlight and musty air, there he spends long days and late nights staring endlessly into the 1024 by 768 pixel grid, toggling the monitor switch back and forth between computers, between operating systems, drifting between work and music. he forgets which of these similar activities he is currently engaged in, as his work is typically constituted by typing line after line of code, and his music is manipulating row after row of digital audio tracks.

An embarrassingly digital life, not untypical in our unfortunate age of technological dependence. somehow sad, but nonetheless beyond the point of judgement. It's all he knows, and rather than being a soulless, sterile life, it is an environment which encourages his emotional expression. from this hole, he has poured himself into music for labels such as cytrax, delay, drop beat, mille plateaux, parallel, plug research, phthalo, ~scape, and vertical form. from minimal techno to melancholic dub to structured noise, kit consistently abuses technology, manipulating sounds in otherworldly ways, following an old tradition of dub production.

Occasionally he leaves his basement only to find himself at odds with the world around him. unable to behave himself in public, he unavoidably causes more trouble than intended. this is true in both daily life and public performances. if not behind the turntables, kit plays his laptop--umbilical cord to his basement womb. improvisation through soundfile manipulation / recombination, granular synthesis, feedback chains, and other digital noisemaking methods, his live music is a scattered exploration of sound rather than a consistent recreation of his recorded music.

Together with friends dj jasper and dj tang, kit operates cytrax and delay record labels which continue to spill the messy contents of California techno all over the dance floor. with minimal, noisy, post-processed music more suited for other music geeks than the drug happy club kid, they occupy a strange space within what might appear to be an increasingly conservative world of bang bang techno. And causing even more trouble, kit and sue costabile operate orthlorng musork, a label which seeks to be defined only in its deviance to musical norms. an outlet for marginalized music, it doesn't aim for continuity, but rather a divergent path of sounds and structures unwelcome in the status quo. busy little bee, kit also works as a computer programmer for cycling '74, the company responsible for max/msp, a flexible environment for custom midi and dsp applications.

Vincent Lemieux :

Le directeur artistique de Musique Risquée et co-programmateur du Festival Mutek est aussi un dj exceptionnel qui possède un vaste répertoire. Il a joué entre autres à Sonar ( ESP ) Mutek Chili, Mutek Mexico, Mutek Buenos Aires, La Scala ( Londres ).

Son étiquette jouit maintenant d'une réputation internationale suite aux sigantures des Jichael Mackson ( DE ), Atom TM ( ( CL ), Akufen ( CA ), Bruno Pronsato ( USA/DE ), The Mole ( CA/DE ), Guillaume & the Coutu-Dumonts ( CA/DE ), Philippe Cam ( FR ), Knowing Looks ( CA ), Trendsetter & The Followers ( CL ) et en étant licenciés par Fabric, Crosstown Rebels, Tigersushi, Freude-Am-Tanzen.....

Comme promoteur, il a partagé les platines avec les Claude Von Stroke, Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano, Zip, Sammy D, les Wighnomy Brothers lors de ses soirées Dizzy du Salon Daomé.

For almost a decade, Vincent Lemieux has played an integral role in Montreal’s internationally acclaimed dance-music community. Lemieux is man who wears many different hats: curator, label owner, DJ, producer, taste-maker… this is a man who has done it all and inflected every project in his association with an indelible personal style.

Internationally, Vince is probably best known as one of the curators behind Montreal’s MUTEK Festival. Since 2000, he has helped shape his hometown conception of progressive electronic music through the acts he brings to town. When not programming the festival, Lemieux hosts two of the most cutting-edge techno weeklies in the city. His long-running Tuesday night at Salon Daomé, where he DJ’s alongside world-class talent, has become a staple in Montreal’s nightlife. Claude Von Stroke, Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano, Zip, Sammy D, they’ve all graced the decks at Daomé courtesy of Vince.

Lemieux is also responsible for fostering local and international talent. Musique Risquée has released works by Atom TM, Akufen, Bruno Pronsatto, The Mole, Jichael Mackson, Guillaume & the Coutu-Dumonts, Philippe Cam, and others. Musique Risquée tracks have been featured on compilations by Crosstown Rebels, Tigersushi, Fabric, and Freud Am Tanzen.

Yet it is his work as a DJ that has caught the ears of the most listeners. Lemieux has toured the world as an ambassador for Montreal’s distinctive brand of micro-house. As the official MUTEK DJ, his sets have been a staple of festival showcase from China to Paris to Berlin and back. His DJing skills have found fervent followers all over the world, at events in Spain (Sonar), Mexico (MUTEK_MX), Chile (MUTEK_CL), and Argentina (MUTEK_AR).

Since 2005, Lemieux has been expanding into music production through collaborations with Guillaume Coutu-Dumont (as Flabbergast) and Stephen Beaupré (as Brandy Snifter). Currently he’s mixing first mix album of Musique Risquée greatest hits, which is due in 2008. In the next year, focus will shift increasingly to recording music and moving into the one domain of electronic music he has yet to conquer.
