It's not a stretch, at all, to say that Claude Young is one of the greatest techno DJs who has ever lived. Aside from his incredible taste, Claude's technical skills behind the decks are nothing short of astonishing. His cut-and-paste style is closer to that of a hip-hop DJ than a techno jock, but he really makes it work. Claude has remixed and produced records for some of the greatest names in the business from Kevin Saunderson, Carl Craig, 4 Hero, Octave One, Sven Vath, Alter Ego and a host of other names too long to mention. In 2006 in Tokyo, Claude met Takasi Nakajima, and together they formed Different World. 2 brothers born in different countries but of the same mind who encompass an entire wealth of electronic music history in their performance. They have a record coming soon on Kirk Degiorgio's ART label, and had a track included on Marcel Fengler's Berhain mix CD.

Sutekh aka Seth Horvitz is an interdisciplinary artist, electronic musician, composer, and designer whose work focuses on the relationship between human perception, iterative process, and the idiosyncratic behavior of machines. Most known for his extensive discography as Sutekh, he has produced “paradoxical techno” since the mid-1990s for dozens of record labels including Force Inc./Mille Plateaux (Germany), Soul Jazz Records (UK), The Leaf Label (UK), Orthlorng Musork (USA), Creaked (Switzerland), and his own Context Free Media. As a performer, he has appeared at festivals, museums, and nightclubs across the Americas, Europe, Australia, and Japan. He has also collaborated with visual artist Nate Boyce for a presentation at the De Young Museum (San Francisco) and performed at this year's FORWARD Festival and Berkeley Art Museum using an obsolete CRT monitor as an instrument. His first collection of “Studies for Automatic Piano” was published by the LINE imprint in June 2011, released under his given name.
