Initially formed as a bedroom recording project by singer/keyboardist Stephen Docker and producer/DJ/bassist Gerard Sidhu, Melbourne, Australia’s Strange Talk eventually evolved into a full band in adding guitarist Gillan Gregory and drummer Travis Constable to the lineup. With an electro-pop sound that has been likened to artists like Passion Pit, Phoenix, and Cut Copy, Strange Talk first came into the public eye in 2010 when they became a featured artist in a competition held by Australia’s popular Triple J radio station. They followed up with their debut self-titled EP in April 2011 and later that year rose to number one on Billboard’s newly established Uncharted chart thanks to the popularity of their singles “Eskimo Boy” and “Climbing Walls.” After several successful national tours and festival appearances, the bandmembers sequestered themselves at a farm a couple hours outside of Melbourne to write and record material for their first album. By the spring of 2012, Strange Talk had finished recording and enlisted Tony Hoffer (Beck, Phoenix, M83) to mix their debut. The resulting album, Cast Away, was released in February 2013 by Sony Music Australia and reached number 56 on the Australian charts. Later that year the band signed with Wind-Up Entertainment, which released Cast Away worldwide in the spring of 2014. (via iTunes)

Hailing from Sydney, Australia, longtime friends & collaborators Kristian Attard and Serg Dimitrijevic collided at the beginning of 2013 in Los Angeles, forming what would soon become known as Intergalactix – an interstellar combustion of music, space travel and vintage devices.
 
Intergalactix have been working behind the scenes for more than a decade on projects with the likes of Cool & Dre, Good Charlotte, Jason Mraz, Heart, Earth Wind & Fire, Kelis, Allen Stone, Ariana Grande, Pras Michel (the Fugees) to Australian heavyweights Jimmy Barnes and PNAU, as well as recording in Miami with Cash Money Records for their previous project. In February 2014, they also supported Zedd on his Jimmy Kimmel Live set.
 
Intergalactix were destined to be anything but understated; their sound an amalgam of distinctly radiant vocals smeared over driving electronic beats and entangled in a chorus of twisted synths. This multi-instrumentalist production duo is currently in the studio crafting their debut album; a rich and melodic electro-indie record that propels the listener deep into otherworldly dimensions where futuristic-synth-visions reign supreme.
 
Fix your eyes on the sky for the much-anticipated landing of Intergalactix.

GERMANS is the musical project from New York City’s Julia Kwamya that helps her to explore love, desires, and fears. She wants to laugh about sadness, and cry about happiness. She wants to dance and to be able to express herself, always. Very simply, GERMANS makes moody disco pop songs about breaking up, making up, and feeling good about feeling bad.
