Gold Panda

Gold Panda is an electronic musician from Chelmsford in the United Kingdom living and working in London. Gold Panda’s journey has been a long and intermittently strange one. Initially, the Essex, UK artist spent his day-job time behind the counters of various houses of ill repute—adult bookstores, record shops—finding that the two were equally seedy. He spent the rest of his waking hours building up a library of original, dizzyingly eclectic electronic music incorporating a disparate mix of influences and source material.

Saviour

We are a modern Hardcore/Death Metal band from north coast Perth Australia. We do not want our music to be seen as a common sound nor an alternate evil, but merely a channel for people to be proactive, a movement from this ever evolving sedentary lifestyle. You know no one better than yourself, so persist if you are going to try, pick yourself up when you're down, and don't let anyone push you around. We won't settle for second best. I swear, this is only the beginning.
