NETTLE make extraordinary, provocative music; live instrumentation on violin, cello and Oud feed through /Ruptures laptop combining with live synths and beat-dubbing to form a true hybrid of styles. Think North African folksong & classical Arabic composition meets digital hardcore & shard scatter electronics.

After studying under tabla superstar, Zakir Hussein, FILASTINE blends middle eastern melodies and dubby, raw, hiphop rhythms using percussion, laptop and a mic, prepare to be captivated.

THE FAMILY ELAN bring airs and prayers for bouzouki and voice from a vagrant member of Nalle, Scatter, The One Ensemble of Daniel Padden. Lost modal wanderings across an unknown land.
