Blood Lotus is the music project of Hannah Wu, who fuses club, experimental R&B, avant-garde pop and traditional Chinese instruments to push the sonic parameters of genre. She constructs spectral worlds where the past and future collide in motion; intimate vocals flutter over shapeshifting beats, scaffolded by oscillating synths and glistening strings. With a focus on collaboration, she has worked with Voidhood and Kuya Neil to produce her debut album, slated to be released in 2026. She also makes ambient music in collaboration with poet Panda Wong, under the moniker Lotus Threads, as well as their extended project, Lotus Web.
Blue Captive crafts music that moves between blissful atmospheric space, and beautifully chaotic wall-of-sound-like textures. Whether live on stage or in the studio, their sound fuses ethereal textures, raw vocal energy, and hypnotic rhythms. Debuting with Mid Air, Blue Captive carved out a distinctive sonic world, where intimacy and catharsis intertwine, and where atmospheric electronica meets emotional storytelling. That vision deepened with the release of Make It Last Forever: a melodic techno journey of rolling waves, nostalgic undertones, and pulsing energy. Live, Blue Captive’s sets are chaotic, vulnerable and intense, blurring the lines between ambient beauty and deep emotional release. Vocals float between airy delicacy and raw intensity, recalling the emotive brutality of memory, heartache and love. Layers of distortion, soothing synth washes, and glitchy textures build emotional arcs that keep audiences suspended in their world. Hailing from the seaside town of Mt Eliza, Australia, Blue Captive draws inspiration from the bittersweet beauty of passing moments. Each track is a sonic tapestry that captures the push and pull between nostalgia, hope, chaos and calm.
Combining lush synths, driving basslines and groove filled beats, Sol Flare’s live shows are known for working the dance floor up to a fever pitch. Fusing together genres ranging from dreamy melodic house, indie dance to techno whilst exploring the light and the dark.
Sol Flare made his debut into the Electronic with his first release Silver Moon on Global Underground, garnering attention in the community and a subsequent remix from Darin Epsilon. Following with a string of releases support has been found with airplay from BBC Introducing, London Live, Triple J and Kiss FM to name a few. His live shows have been performed throughout UK notably at BlueDot & Kendal Calling Festivals and Europe & Australia.
Locian redefines musical storytelling by blending reflective lyricism with a vibrant fusion of trip-hop rhythms and electronic textures. He weaves together intricate narratives and thought-provoking themes, drawing inspiration from his personal experiences and a desire to challenge conventional ideas. With a keen focus on storytelling, Locian poses questions that invite his listeners to embark on introspective journeys, exploring the hidden corridors of the mind and the landscapes of the heart. Influenced by seminal artists such as Radiohead, Nicolas Jaar, RÜFÜS DU SOL, and Howling/RY X, his music exudes a unique blend of atmospheric soundscapes and emotive vocals, evoking moments of clarity amid a world of chaos.
