Thomas P. Heckmann

A long time veteran of the German techno/house scene
Thomas P. Heckmann’s interest in electronic music first
bore fruit aged eleven when he began to make his own
synth-pop. Inspired by the likes of KLF and 808 State,
Heckmann went on to release his first 12” in 1991, debuting
as Exit 100 on the soon-to-be-renowned Force Inc. A plethora
of releases followed over the years, on labels from Mute and
Labworks, to Djax-Up-Beats and his own Trope Recordings
and Acid Fucker Unite (A.F.U.), and from there Heckmann
went on to score commercial successes in the French and
German charts.

Loktibrada & Rumenige

Resident DJs at one of Central Europe’s most famous techno
clubs (‘U.Club’) from 1994 to 2003, Loktibrada and Rumenige
are regarded as the ‘fathers of Slovak techno’ and have
release over 30 records worldwide usually for labels
including Antidandruff, Olga+Jozef, Numb, Palicavonzvreca
and Tresor. Having emerged from their home country to
play all across Europe, they are currently working on a new
Antidandruff release.

Jon Hussey

DJing since 1993, Jon Hussey is a veritable veteran of Irish
techno and the list of clubs he’s played reads like a roll-call
of the harder, grittier end of the native scene: Columbia
Mills, Fusion, Genius, Genesis and GDMF amongst many
others. Jon’s skills have also taken him to the UK,  Italy and
Bratislava to play his own take on the harder styles favoured
by Surgeon and Steve Bicknell; Hussey has also found the
time to set up DJ courses, in order to pass the torch onto
the next generation of underground techno lovers.

Stuey Lyons

Known locally for his gritty blend of techno and electro, Stuey
echoes the early Chicago styles with his deployment of a
drum machine while he DJs; while also looking to the likes of
Richie Hawtin’s tough, minimal delivery for inspiration. With
performances at Junction, Hospital & Electricity under his
belt, he has recently taken the step into production.
