minimal techno / techhouse
“I have experienced many aspects of the Industry. From promotions and productions for parties, clubs, retail events and restaurants, To lugging sound gear and doing sound for major events, I have done it all. I also spent 2 years as the General Manager of an after hours club called the DJ Café’. I came into the production aspect of House Music after meeting the Cavender brothers. They showed me the ropes and gave me what I needed to get started in my quest to export my emotions into an audio format.” Soon after, Eric co-produced “Dirty Sex” the first release on San Francisco’s Lo-Rise Recordings with Seafoam. The rest is history. These days I find myself barricaded inside studios, playing records or hanging out with family and friends.

A Los Angeles native now residing in San Francisco, Russian-blooded Alland Byallo
has broken into the House scene with his own unique blend of deep tech funk.
Alland’s taste, coupled with his research and digging, always instills an undeniable
groove and tickles the chin-scratching trainspotting senses.Alland’s involvement
with music didn’t just start from plurging and buying some 1200’s. Having been raised
with music since the age of 5 playing piano, and adding trumpet at age 11, it only
seemed natural for Alland to follow up his skills and training by sharing his taste
in quality music with people as a DJ, and pursuing production. Lately, Alland has
been quite busy in the studio working hard on his own unique take on House music.
The Missing Link aka Matt Cavender
minimal techno / techhouse / glitch
In 2000 The Missing Link was an integral part in the formation of the Denver
collective Mile High House productions, but it wasn’t until 2001 that he had
enough material for a rough, glitchy, techy, breaky album that was put into an
unreleased demo entitled “Enter the Brow”. The Link and his brother Ilk went on a
mini CA tour to showcase their skills with a rough live PA. The bug was set, and The
Link wanted more of the live on stage experience.
