WARLOCK (RAG & BONE RECORDS, UK)
A DJ refusing to be sucked into any one genre, a typical Warlock set is a new experience every time. A spontaneous mash up of all things dark and bass heavy but above all, big tunes. Expect anything from the contemporary flavas of dubstep, mutant bassline, fidget, funky and electro, to old skool hardcore, acid house and techno.
Beginning his days on legendary London pirate Pulse FM, Warlock was a regular feature on the rave circuit, resident at Labrynth, Helter Skelter and up and down the country playing the likes of The Eclipse, Elevation, Interdance and Universe.
He then became a part of the early London techno scene and would often be found spinning at Knowledge, Eurobeat 2000 and many of the early squat parties put on by Spiral Tribe and Bedlam.
More recently he has graced the decks at Glade, Fabric, Bloc, Bashout, Plex, Yardcore, Trigger, Uglyfunk, Toxic Dancehall and Z-Shed to name but a few.
Today, together with Noyeahno, he runs the uncompromising Rag & Bone label which aside from their own releases has seen cult material being unleashed by the likes of Drop The Lime, King Cannibal, Aaron Spectre Starkey Kanji Kinetic and Stagga.
Expect dirty dancefloor business all the way.

DJ BAKU (POPGROUP, JAPAN)
An ever prolific indie/alternative DJ and track-maker, DJ BAKU’s foundation is Hip Hop with a healthy dose of turntablism. His highly-acclaimed mix series released on his own label, DIS-DEFENSE DISC, has become something of a collector’s item. In June 2006, he released his long-awaited first album, “SPINHEDDZ” on POPGROUP Recordings, which reached No. 1 on the Tower Records Indie chart. Later in the same year, he performed with D-Style, Kid Koala and Q-Bert. In December that year, DJ BAKU joined forces with the legendary Guitar Wolf, releasing the single, “ULTRA CROSS Vol. 3”, on Sony Music. In 2007, BAKU embarked on a new project, assuming the alias, “Noizd Phank”, incorporating a variety of artists like Bug (ex Techno Animal) to do remixes. Lastly, in 2008 will see the release of DJ BAKU’s second album, “Dharma Dance”. Along with his forte, sampling, BAKU has introduced the usage of guitar, bass, drums, and Chinese stringed instruments like the er hu, as well as a diverse range other natural/acoustic instruments in his new album.

DJ DAIKI (Fierceheads UK)
Daiki first started DJ-ing in 1994 after becoming influenced by Hip-Hop, these first forays into the world of beats exposed him to many new forms of music and began to branch out into Ragga, Dancehall, House, Big Beat & Breaks.
He organised a huge party called "Synthsize Muzik", placed under the "Yokohama big Bridge", 3000 people showed up and his name was known as a organiser and DJ.
While travelling between London & Madrid Daiki met Christian Verela, he invited Christian to play at his party he was organising in London alongside Chris Liberator, ant & himself. The party was a great success & led to him being asked to play at the 'Kinetic Live' '24 Hour Techno Marathon' & 'Galaxia'.
Daiki plays mainly techno but with a mix of breaks & acid. Always on the bleeding edge, his blurred-hand three deck aural assaults are peppered with new sounds designed to lead you to another dimension.
