L.A.DRONES! ¨Sci Fi Post Punk Legends¨
¨Once upon a time, two eternal L.A.Drones! ("thieves" in Spanish) named Kontrol Remoto and Darlingtonia Brackets pierced the line delimiting the real and the unreal and crash landed in Los Angeles. Harnessing the magic hidden in the prime numbers and the energy in the sound frequencies produced in the universe, these two could observe and assimilate the most interesting music in decades. They met near the minimalism of Terry Riley, the proto electronic of Silver Apples, the dronic rock of the Velvets, the Kraut of Cluster, Neu, Can and Kraftwerk, and adore Brian Eno as a living demigod. L.A.Drones! will not be put in a box and be held captive by a genre. They feel close to the rebirth of the Synth, under the tutelage of punk with Suicide, Cabaret Voltaire, and Crash Course in Science, through the Industrial apocalypse of Throbbing Gristle… See the birth of the synthesized pop of the Neue Deutsche Welle and DAF, and jumping to the new world to learn about new influxes of acid house, techno and the most primitive electro of the dark Detroit… Never stop breathing the most intoxicated fumes of the Jamaican dub, with people like The Scientist, or King Tubby. No one knows who they are because they are hiding behind thieves masks and the paths they walk are concealed by the akelarre sounds. They say that Chris & Cosey might be hiding their true identity? The Name of This Band Is L.A.Drones!"

SEXTILE:
nitially living in Brooklyn, guitarist/vocalist Brady Keehn and drummer/vocalist Melissa Scaduto made a jump to Los Angeles on a whim as the financial climate in New York became too much. Within months of being in LA, the two conveniently met bassist Kenny Elkin and guitarist/keyboardist Eddie Wuebben. Occultism, specifically a deeper understanding of astrology, was a connection amongst the band, hence the name Sextile, an astrological term that relates to harmony and the ease of expression of two seemingly different elements.
With urgency, the band quickly completed their debut album, A Thousand Hands, a primitive form of rock n roll, melding surf punk, early industrial, ambient and post-punk. Sextile are on a mission and nothing can get in their way on A Thousand Hands. While Sextile’s journey has moments of bleakness, the band express their will to live, to confront their demons and forge on in search of better days.

MALDITOS (SF)
Oakland, Ca., Malditos is a quartet embarked on a concept of sound they refer to as "dark-zone desert psych", featuring pulsating rhythms, melodic vocal phrasings, sonic guitar passages and heavy atmospheric textures conjured via analog synthesizers, tapes and percussion. The songs come across as meditations. Eschewing a normal rock-band drum kit as well as avoiding much conventional song structure, there is a palpable feeling of séance. The mood set conjures thoughts of the sweat lodge, datura, ill portent, black magic.

LA FOG
LA Fog is an experimental chamber music ensemble composed of woodwinds and strings—with Kelly Coats on flute, Kathleen Kim on violin, Jonathan Silberman on tenor saxophone and Giles Miller on baritone saxophone. It was formed in response to experiences with dominant musical structures in which drums/bass/guitar combinations defined the sound of the music we loved, and the instruments that we played were pushed to the margins, mostly serving as ornamentation. LA Fog brings these instruments to the center of the creative process of composing, orchestrating and performing new music. All four members of LA Fog compose music for the group to play, often including structures for improvisation along with traditional and nontraditional scores.
