Dark Himaya
===========
We bring together lyrics that express the melancholic truth about being human, harmonizing vocals, expressive yet ambient guitars, haunting piano and atmospheric synth sounds. The deep, melodious bass notes and pulsing heartbeat of the drums give the songs structure, and tie all these elements together to create music that will bring your soul to places forgotten.
Dark Himaya was formed April 2009 with Ivy Fernie (vocals/guitar), Aileen
Alonzo (vocals/keyboard), Alejandro Dini (bass), and Tatsuya Dayte helping us on drums. We are your guide throughout your journey through the soundscapes of Himaya.
Dark Himaya just released their new album 'Breaking the Spell' and also now available on line! Website: www.darkhimaya.com
Shotgun Politics
================
We are four guys making our brand of energetic pop-rock. Coming from different backgrounds in Hong Kong, Singapore, Chengdu and Malmö we bring in our own influences from indie, punk-rock, alternative, metal and pop. The result? We call it 'Party Rock'.
The objective has always been to make songs catchy for everyone to enjoy, yet heavy and layered enough for the musicians in the audience to stay interested. We want people to remember a Shotgun show for big choruses, loud guitars and an infectious performance.

Les Gromechkos
===============
From East to West, from North to South…the 6 members of Les Gromechkos are exploring all the hidden sides of Hong Kong to create a universe that echoes in their original tunes. Taking its roots in the early 60's Jamaican Rocksteady, their music evolved in a unique blend of ska, roc, gipsy-punk and french musette. From a crazy accordion to a charming flute, from a canny keyboard to a bouncy bass, from a killer drum to the crystal glass breaking voice of their charismatic singer: you won't stop your body from skanking on their catchy riddim.
