Joe Mouspad:
Dazzling audiences with stunning word play and funky rhythms
unheard in hip-hop and dance music, Joe Mousepad, who hails from New Hampshire, has earned a place as a prominent emcee in the
international music community. Relocating to Boston in 2002 and
eventually to San francisco in 2007, his interaction with hip hop and
big bass electronic music has pushed him in style and form, utilizing
his abilities to play on any tempo and genre. You may have seen him at countless festivals along the west coast. A recent signee to the west coast label Daly City Records by Mochipet, Joe has begun to showcase his own production and push his craft into the next level. From Boston to NY, Baltimore to Austin to San Francisco, be on the lookout for this linguistic juggernaut on his upcoming european tour, or at a rockin spot near you.

Siren:
Live drums, heavy synths, groove and energy are the foundation that Brandan Hale AKA Siren builds on. Hailing from Oregon and now settled in San Francisco, Siren is another new west coast find that has been making his distinctive mark on midtempo breakbeats and dubstep. With a background of metal influences and playing piano, saxaphone, drums in punk, ska and metal bands, Siren brings both melody and unforgiving edge to his productions. Already making headway with touring the ‘bass’ scenes of the US west, ‘Spawn’ is clearly the first of many releases to come. Expect bass that hits you in the gut, raw and pounding lead riffs and some epic instrumental accompaniments, truly made for ‘large’ environments or the most urban of basements.”-MUTI MUSIC
