ARTIST BIOS

WE'RE BREAKING UP (TWOTHOUSANDAND / ANTIOPIC) (US / UK) (LIVE) :
shortwave electronica, snap, crackle & pop

We're Breaking Up is Michael Rodgers, multi-instrumentalist, free improviser
and (with Anthony Guerra) co-founder of the outstanding London-Sydney label
TwoThousandAnd. Living in London since 2000, he's now a fixture of the
electronica / impro / microsound scene, with TwoThousandAnd really on a roll
at the moment. Michael brings a sense of urgency and openness to his own
musical projects - collaborators include Paul Hood, Anthony Guerra, Pedro
Lourenço and Manuel Mota. Much of his music reflects personal ideas of
distance, human relationships, density, and things that are invisible.

Michael plays out regularly in London and has also performed in Portugal,
Germany, Austria and the USA.

'Restless, shifting drones . a really epic feel. Excellent' SMALLFISH
'Takes the improvisation of electronics to a barren wasteland, it glows and
flashes and fizzes to the end' IGLOOMAG
'Yet another fine, fine release from this superb label. Check it out'
BAGATELLEN

---------------------

CHEAPMACHINES (KABUKIKORE, NID NOD) (UK) (LIVE) :
warm noise, field recordings, tape loops

Cheapmachines has been in existence since 1997, acting at the interface
between noise electronics, generative software, field recordings, tape music
and drones. Stark, stunning soundscaping and musique concrete.
