MIKE NIGRO is an electronic musician and label operator based in Sydney, Australia (previously Brooklyn, NY and Newark, DE). His solo practice and collaborations draw inspiration from the minimalists, early synthesizer pioneers, and contemporary experimental underground. His work explores the sonic spaces between musicality and noise; movement and stasis; synthetics and organics. In 2021, he released his latest full-length album In Communion on Alien Garage, and curated the Undercurrents compilation for his own label, Oxtail Recordings.

Danny Wild (aka Low Flung) and Laura Altman are COUCH. Some might say they come from pretty different musical backgrounds, but Couch provide a cosy space for each others' stylings, traversing the fine edges of natural and synthetic resonance.
Feedback, modular synth, tape, clarinet and a healthy dose of amplification result in a melange which is ambling, meditative, curious and alive.
Couch released their debut cassette 'Thursday' in 2020 on Moontown Records.
