THE SERFS

Emerging like a missile from some surreptitious silo in southwestern Ohio, The Serfs are a deliberately nebulous and incidentally industrialist gang of dance-floor hymners- perturbed and tranced-out troubadours whose sound and musical ideology seems to be a causal manifestation of their immediate environments-hard-wired and hypnotic synthesized melodies propel alongside churning and scraping percussion of every metallic tonality-with temperamental and eremitic words and voices dictating the forlorn venture. Like their Ohio predecessors, The Serfs seem askew from the art that surrounds them, and proud of it.

Here are a few of their musical influences (beware of reference hell!): Severed Heads, Link Wray, The Fall, Cabaret Voltaire, Keith Hudson, Chris & Cosey, Oppenheimer Analysis, Spacemen 3, Popol Vuh, Bourbonese Qualk, Neu! King Tubby, Phantom Payn Daze, Franz Liszt, Robert Rental, Jaques Dutronc, Nikki Sudden, Swell Maps, Prince Jammy, John Bender, Throbbing Gristle, Grauzone, Black Sabbath, Pharcyde, Space Museum, Nocturnal Emissions, Robert Wyatt, Felt, Alien Sex Fiend, Prefab Sprout ... (you think you've captured everything, then they come around the corner with a Coil T-shirt)

MORWAN

The Brain child of Ukrainian musician, Alex Ashtaui, has taken Eastern European Post-Punk to a whole other level. With his intricate guitar riffs, tribal drum beats and so on, Morwan is a project which, in all honesty, cannot be categorized in terms of genre and style but rather by the power and intensity that is witnessed during every performance by the enigmatic musician. Beauty, sadness, loss and anger are just some of the emotions that have been invoked during performances. No matter what, you'll feel something during Morwan's musical tempest!
