Yukio Bergholdt has been producing electronic music since the mid 90's, cutting his teeth on hardware synths and outboard gear. He certainly has an ear for the nostalgic, and his evocative beats and mellow tones should appeal to fans of the dub, techno, and ambient genres. Yukio Bergholdt grew up in the 80’s near Copenhagen spending a lot of time skateboarding and playing Commodore Amiga games, getting influenced by the fantastic tracker music and pioneering demo scene. Limited by 4 channels and 8-bit samples Yukio and his friends would try to create tracks of their own in tracker music software on the Amiga 500. Always curious to find like minded artists, Yukio has done remixes and videoart scoring with different artists around the world. Today his force lies balancing between creating dub techno, techno, ambient and the occasional sonic or audiovisual experiments.
Wilk Kick is a sound artist from Gdansk, Poland. He currently lives in Copenhagen. Wilk Kick's musical journey started when he played in local post punk bands as a bass player. His constant search of unique and original sounds naturally led to the discovery of effect pedals, electronic instruments and DAW. Simultaneously, he discovered the underground electronic scene and started to experiment with drum n' bass, minimal, trip hop, dubstep and techno. After some time DJing, his first LP was released. Throughout these years, Wilk Kick formed bands as Teufelsberg (electro-acoustic duet with synthesizers, zither and cello). After moving from Poland to Denmark, he re-discovered his passion for four to the floor music, which he had been fascinated by since an early age.
