ABOUT MARTYPARTY

Martin Folb as MartyParty or half of duo, PANTyRAiD, seduces audiences with his own color of genre-defying EDM. Hailing from South Africa, repping Miami, MartyParty keeps the party pumping the world over with big bass lines, dirty drops, and anthem-ready melodies. Synthetic Hip Hop, Purple Trap, all original.

Dominating at festivals and clubs throughout North America, such as Mountain Oasis, Basslights, Insomniac Nocturnal, Monsters of Bass Tour, Lightning in a Bottle Festival, Camp Bisco, and more, MartyParty's live set explodes into a one-of-a-kind musical experience. He has shared the stage with other heavy hitters such as the The Glitch Mob, Skrillex, Bassnectar, and Steve Aoki, not to mention countless chart-topping releases with his partner, Ooah, on their PANTyRAiD act.

Over the past 2 years, MartyParty's prolific releases have been prominently and frequently featured in industry tastemaker charts such as iTunes, Beatport, and Addictech. He is also sharing his extensive knowledge and cultivating the next generation of talented DJs and producers through a column on Vice magazine's THUMP. MartyParty has clearly set himself apart as a highly sought-after connoisseur in dance music.

ABOUT JOKER

Aged just 24, Joker is an immensely precocious talent, he burst onto the Dubstep and Grime scenes in 2008 with the vibrant 'Grimey Princess' and 'Gully Brook Lane' which were released on Earwax and Plastician's Terrorhythm imprint respectively. His productions possess a rare duality of intense and nonchalant energy, the soundtrack to a pimp on an interstellar journey.

Joker's musical peers include Rustie, Gemmy and Kode 9, the recognised tastemaker and man behind Hyperdub who identified Joker as one to watch when he named him as his protégée for Mary Anne Hobbs' hugely seminal follow-up to Dubstep Wars, Generation Bass; broadcast worldwide on BBC Radio 1.

Joker's video can be viewed on Youtube and in testament to the level of interest in this Bristolian talent, continues to be the highest viewed video of the Maida Vale session.

Joker has remixed Roni Size, Simian Mobile Disco and Lil Boots, his productions are battered by DJs including Skream, Rustie, Harmonic 313 and Plastician. Pitchfork named Joker, 2008 Producer Of The Year a huge accolade for a producer who's not only just out of his teens but also just out of the starting blocks.

Born to Grime and adopted by Dubstep, Joker is reluctant to be classified, but his soul drenched productions have been described as Jehri Curl Boogie and Wiley stuck in an elevator with Cameo. Whatever you call it, as we move through 2009 and beyond, Joker is one of the shining stars that can be seen in the distance and by the time the light of his electric melody's reaches our eardrums he has already begun the next phase of his journey.
