SOFT METALS:
is an electronic music duo from Portland who currently reside in L.A. Its members were brought together through a common love of '70s and '80s synthesizer music. Inspiration came to them by way of experimental electronics, film soundtracks, early industrial music, minimal synth, house, techno, synth pop, krautrock, psychedelic rock, and shoegaze.

COSMETICS:
is electronic music played by hand and made for dancing...ice cold with human emotion.
Cosmetics are a duo from Montreal, Quebec who formed in the summer 2008, and in 2009 put together the TUFF TRAX home studio. Using simple rhythm, analog synthesizers and voice, they spend every night very slowly making tracks.

BREAKDOWN VALENTINE
Breakdown Valentine was conceived by Allen Davis and Olivia Barchard in January of 2011. Within the last year the duo has diligently been crafting a collection of dynamic songs. The music is armed with heavy analog synth tones, guitar, bass, melodic vocals, and beats to move the most stubborn wallflowers.
