Toronto
based music producer/performer Mason Bach creates unity within an
immediate sphere of listeners by making sense of our modern aural
landscape. Using a hybrid of electronically generated soundscapes and
rhythms juxtaposed by live, modulated violin, Bach creates an awareness
of new music and sound amongst the greater population. Trained in
classical violin from the age of three and continuing to perform
regularly throughout his university years, the foundation was created
for a career as a Classical Musician. However, after obtaining a
mismatched pair of turntables and a dusty crate of early 80’s Electro
Pop and Classic house, his addiction to the rich sounds of Electronic
Music was formed. Bach chose to further his education by obtaining an
Audio Engineering and Technology diploma. Upon graduating, he has taken
extensive post-graduate courses, specializing in the implementation of
MIDI controllers and human interface design using Max/MSP allowing him
to explore the endless capabilities of sound created through electronic
circuitry and computers.

GURPREET CHANA [THE TABLA GUY]

It
all started from banging his hands on pots and pans or anything else he
could get his hands on to hear and feel the beat. His grandfather Kesar
Singh Chana saw this enthusiasm and gave him his first Tabla set and
since that moment 29 years ago, there has been no looking back.Gurpreet
has been taught in the Punjab Gharana (style) from his Ustad Ji
Professor Parshotam Singh.His passion for percussion has taken him to
perform at many music concerts and festivals around the globe.From
constantly creating and collaborating amongst his peers, Gurpreet's
music has been repeatedly requested and more importantly remembered for
its distinctive sound and moving beats.This has led him to perform and
record with artists such as Nelly Furtado, Wyclef Jean, legendary UK
DJ/ Producer Bally Sagoo, Juno Award winning Kiran Ahluwalia, The
Bombay Dub Orchestra, Jorane, DJ Rekha, and open for Pete Rock and Lady
Sovereign.
