BRANDON SPIVEY & RICHIE ANDERSON
The perverted, extreme and forceful sound of audio deviants Richie Anderson and Brandon Spivey. These audio hooligans are based in the North of England and have been making hard acid and disrespectful techno since since 1993.
They have had releases on labels such as Alien Reign, Kill Out, Drop Bass Network, Epsilon, Deadly Systems, 666, Toolbox, appearing on the early Spiral Tribe mixtapes (sp23k) etc... Working under names such as Prole Synthesis/Asymetric/Wah Wah/Agro/Acab/Collective Strength.
They described their music as fucked up acid and techno and have done their best to follow their own course and only to do what is instinctive to themselves.

MATT GREEN
Growing up in the London borough of Hackney, Matt Green was quickly infected by the Electro and Hip-hop hitting the alternative alleys of the nineties.
He bought his first sampler (at the age of 12!), started creating and later on, everything fell into place and by the year of '96 when Matt released his first EP. He then, quickly had the chance to release several guest EPs on labels like Epileptik, Hong Kong Violence and many more.
With a respected list of past performances, including sets at Hellraiser, Darkness4life and the r_AW event, Matt Green continues his hardcore battle on stage. Strength and intensity are just a couple of words describing the waves that bleed from Matt Greens' live-sets. A familiar style to the loyal follower, with an ever going need to push the distinct Matt Green sound forward.

H-KON
Representing Praxis Records and Clash of the Titans, H-Kon is a wicked DJ and music maniac who has been killing it for years and years. If you have not experienced his marvellous selections yet, phasing from Breakcore to Jungle and across, you NEED to come by and get busy on the dancefloor! And if you have heard him play before, then get another dose at VOID, you know you want it.

AMBOSS
Massive, thatŽs the word to define one of the hardest drum and bass producer in Berlin! He released reference albums on pioneer labels like Mindbender Records, No Room For Talent, Restroom and others... Hook up to survive a thick storm of phat hoovers, sweeping heavy beats and dark doomed athmosphears.

GRR is somehow not to present if you hang out in the actual Berliner underground scene. Into music creation since more than 10 years, he released kicking hard hybrid Breakcore EPŽs on Sub/Version (Praxis), Industrial Strength, Mechanical Brain.... and organized numerous sick parties in FriedrichshainŽs hood.

---------------------------------------
Q-CHIP
Manages to remain something of an enigma within the electro scene despite DJ performances at the legendary ORBIT (UK), FUTURE PAST and DARKSIDE parties.
Little is known about this producer. His releases on BUNKER and SOLAR ONE caused reviewers to speculate about his identity, whilst raving about his tracks. An extreme electro blast using powerful, raw baselines with extreme electrical currents, contorting melodies and twisted harmonies cause dancefloors to disintegrate. Lose yourself in cinematic atmospheres and robotic cold paranoia, as the convulsive treatment is administered by the inhumane sounds of Q-Chip, in this rare public appearance.
