Gold Panda
Gold Panda – aka Derwin Schlecker – is an electronic music producer and composer known for his remixes as well as his innovative compositions in the genre of electronica and witch house.
Schlecker first began his endeavor in music when he was a teenager experimenting with chopping up songs on his uncle’s sampler. He later enrolled in the School of Oriental and African Studies at the University of London and still continued experimenting with music while he was there. His studies in Oriental and African studies can be conveyed through the style of his music that incorporates African rhythmic beats and Oriental sounding melodies.
Baba Ali
Baba Ali is the combined force of American performer and musician Baba Doherty and British guitarist Nik Balchin, both based in London.
For their 2023 album Laugh Like A Bomb, Baba Ali took to production duties themselves in Al Doyle’s London studio, and finished the final mixes with Sheffield producer Ross Orton (Working Men's Club / M.I.A. / Arctic Monkeys). The album’s bold and fiery lead single Burn Me Out serves as a blueprint for what the duo call their ‘electro punk disco’ sound and was premiered by Lauren Laverne on BBC 6 Music. Baba Ali also performed the song for their live television debut on the legendary BBC show Later…with Jools Holland.
Onstage, Baba Ali is a captivating and seductive presence, transmitting a wall of sound that fills the room with an infectious raw energy and groove that makes standing still impossible.
