Introducing :: Computer Club ::

Mike Diasio AKA :: Computer Club :: is the producer responsible for some of the heaviest/hardest electro/disco/house coming out of LA. He describes his sound as "heavy, distortion-tinged .. electro house" and we LOVE it !!

He is getting alot of blog buzz after his recent collaboration with Frankmuzik on latest track "Losing Streak" where Diasio's heavy distorted basslines are a perfect match for Vince's sweet, melodic vocal.

His remixes are also worth their weight in gold, including his version of Human Leagues classic, "Don't You Want Me" finding its way into underground electro club nights across the globe.

As well as writing and producing, Diasio is a well-accomplished DJ, having played a steady stream of gigs, traveling to every corner of North America with regular stops in New York City, San Francisco and everywhere in between.

Introducing :: Japayork ::

Meet :: Japayork :: a 22 yr old musician who has lived in both Japan and New York, hence the name.

He is currently living in London, working in videography, graphic design and when he has a spare minute, he is writing for his (as yet untitled) debut album.

'Our Now' is the perfect first single from this youngster, combinging a strong 80s influence with heartfelt emotion. Sounding like an unreleased Depeche track, it comes complete with home made video which has captured the hearts of every music blogger from Discodust to Big Stereo who have nothing but praise for him.

This heartfelt 80s synthpop runs throughout his myspace player with tracks such as 'I Need It All' and 'Teenagers' proving he is no one trick pony... its fair to say, we can expect big things.
