Szymek is a musician and producer currently based in Margate. Under his KMBN alias, he produces music influenced by the EBM, Italo, and New Beat genres. Groovy 80s drum machine beats, driving synth basslines with dark, cold, goth hooks.

Tomas Jefanovas is a Margate-based artist, originally from Vilnius, Lithuania. He works at the intersection of electronic music, audio-visual compositions, installation art, and live performance. Tomas explores the interplay of repetitive, rhythmic sounds and moving image, creating immersive experiences he describes as techno landscapes.

Geoffrey Papin is a pop musician, producer and sound artist. His set was a musical improvisation with a dual-hand visual performance, questioning our binarity. It brought freedom and love, with nods to Sun Ra, Einstein on the Beach and Donovan, all delivered through his distorted, non-binary machines.

Zoe A. is a Margate-based DJ and artist. Starting with a love for ‘80s music, her collection features everything from Italo disco to proto-techno. Her sets now embrace a range of genres, including EBM, dark wave, acid vibes, new beat, dark disco, and synth-pop.
