KONTRAVOID
Kontravoid’s masked mystique has remained for over a decade. Ever since the release of his self-titled LP in 2012, the Canadian-born, Los Angeles-based Cameron Findlay has perfected dark pop with his oeuvre that teeters between the EBM, electro and goth genres. His productions, such as 2019’s “Too Deep” and 2021’s “Faceless,” dive to the most derelict corners of foggy, strobe-lit clubs: there is no choice but to dance. But there is an uncanny softness and obvious songwriting ability to compose heart-wrenching songs that are both captivating and drenched in melancholy—2018’s “Undone” has been a fan favorite since it came out on Berlin’s Fleisch Records.
Onstage, Kontravoid demands the audience’s attention with his powerful performance that balances his specific concoction of harsh beats with his signature bass line rhythmic patterns. He’s toured alongside Boy Harsher, ADULT., Drab Majesty and Hide, and has remixed the likes of Schwefelgelb and Kris Baha. Truly a man of the shadows, Kontravoid is an unparalleled fixture in the dark electronic arena.

BUZZ KULL
Buzz Kull exists as an enigmatic force in the Australian underground scene, he embodies the raw essence of existential longing and emotional desolation. With a sonic palette that paints in shades of darkness, Buzz
Kull's music unveils the hidden depths of the human psyche with haunting precision.

Drawing inspiration from the fringes of post-punk, coldwave, and minimal wave, Buzz Kull weaves together pulsating synths, relentless drum machines, and haunting vocals that becomes a vessel for catharsis, a
conduit for the unspoken yearnings and existential questions that weigh heavy on the human spirit.

Through Buzz Kull’s exploration in sound, they invite us to embrace our own vulnerabilities, to confront the demons that lurk within, and to find solace in the beauty of misery. In a world obsessed with surface appearances, Buzz Kull reminds us that the true depths
of the human experience can only be discovered by
diving into the darkness.
