Jon Watts

A recording artist since 2001, Jon Watts’ eight years of experimentation with self-produced live-instrument hip hop has paid off. From the first twanging jawharp tones on the title track of to the raw, polyrhythmic Moroccan drumming on the hidden track, Jon’s expertise at layering instruments, rhythms and poetic meanings provide the listener with a dense and flowing journey to travel and unravel with glee on Jon's self-taught, self-produced, self-recorded, self-written, self-pressed and self-promoted project - "The Art of Fully Being".

Generation Gap

Generation Gap(1995 -1996) was the old band of Alex Band(it was his second band) and Aaron Kamin(both from The Calling) when they began playing together. The band consisted of Alex Band(15), Aaron Kamin(19), a 58 year old drummer and a 40 year old bassguitarist. The huge difference in ages obviously was the reason for the bandname.
When Alex Band and Aaron Kamin got a record deal with RCA Records, the band split up. The Demo Cd consisted of 5 tracks;
1. Stigmatized
2. Stolen Youth
3. Sunday

Darren Sylvester

Darren Sylvester is an accomplished Melbourne visual artist and photographer turning his efforts to brilliant 80's inspired synth pop. He draws much inspiration from New Order, but there is much to be found in his self titled debut album such as the heartbraking wall of sound tribute found in the song 'Phil Spector'. Darren will be one to watch in 2010 having gone relatively undiscovered in 2009 which is amazing given the man has such talent.
