His musical life is extended, starting in industrial bands, moving on to putting on illegal raves as part of the seminal London underground counter cultural movement United Systems, through commercial techno and back into the murky underground of experimental/industrial techno. Always known to be someone working on the fringes, in the shadows, a true underground artist, Voidloss has become a name associated with progression, a high production aesthetic, emotional extremes, of euphoria and darkness, with iconic releases on both high profile and underground labels. His own label Singularity Recordings pushes forward and explores the dark and experimental, leading edge of techno, championing other artists working with a similar aesthetic of uniquity, artistry and underground mentality. His Live PA`s take people on a deep emotional journey, both for the soul and for dancefloor, breaking genre rules, remaining ahead of expectation. And his releases and label philosophy continue to be a strong force for individuality and dissent amongst a sea of compliance. https://soundcloud.com/voidloss https://soundcloud.com/singularity-recordings https://singularityrecordings.bandcamp.com/ ------------------------------- Error Etica / Subsist - Pychoskunk ------------------------------------ Joel Sutcliffe / Tom Long / Process Manchester Joel Sutcliffe and Tom Long have forged separate paths through the techno scene of northern England over best part of decade, raving at and playing at pretty much anywhere worth its salt.

He was both fascinated and alienated by the culture he found and he wanted to channel this in an artistic fashion - and thus, Sabes was born. From the offset Sebastian's ambition was to merge the distortion of rhythmic, noise-oriented industrial music with Technoid beat and bass structures. Influenced by classic industrial projects of the 90s like Asche, Imminent, Synapscape and Iszoloscope – Sabes created two albums that are best described as an energetic blend of blasting beats, complex sequencer patterns, unsettling samples and crushing power noise textures. His sound keeps evolving and his recent explorations oscillate around a more polished Techno soundscape with Industrial influences....and because of this we are super happy to have him back at tensile! https://soundcloud.com/sabesdot https://www.facebook.com/Sabesdot https://www.facebook.com/gombocrec/ --------------------------- Mr Willis / Mancheter --------------------------- Notwerker / East Coast ---------------------------
