Thu Jan 24 Sequence
Ill Gates
Sequence: Ill Gates! Dubstep! Toronto-born, US-living, soon to be a dad, and all around cool guy Ill Gates (nee Dylan Lane) has a long and storied career in electronic music. He started DJing at the tender age of 13, and hasn't looked back - releasing four studio albums, touring the globe, making fans out of burners and bassheads alike, and adding his flavor to the ever popular world of EDM. By flavor, I mean ill.Gates doesn't shy away from esoteric samples like warped Taiwanese folk music and synthesized animal sounds.

Fri Jan 25 The Pink Spiders
The Pink Spiders! Rock! Few bands have been able to cash in on their bad habits, dirty minds and questionable life choices quite like power-pop band The Pink Spiders. Infamy and chaos have followed them since they first stormed onto the Nashville music scene in 2004 with their self-released debut EP, The Pink Spiders Are Taking Over. It was that notoriety that translated into immediate results, as the band signed to their first indie deal less than 6 months after forming.

Sat Jan 26 Turbo Drive
Danger
Turbo Drive: Danger! Synthwave! Danger says: "As a child, I grew up sitting in front of a computer by myself. That is where I learnt about music; playing video games and watching endless reruns of cartoons and American TV shows. Television gave me shelter when I was alone, nursed me with Hollywood's mythologies. It guided me through nameless countries; with it I brought down colossuses and climbed mountains. I preached its beliefs.
