•ABOUT THE ARTISTS•
MINDEX
Mindex is an all original electronic composer whose signature bass production combines elements of jazz, hip-hop, classical and middle eastern music with futuristic sound design. His polished engineering prowess allows him to draw every shape, color and movement of the sonic experience, which overflows with melodic patterns, textured layers, and detailed automations of modern synthesizers and effects. His painstaking and careful articulations mold a four dimensional topography for the mind to digest. In the last few years, that recognizable Mindex sound has proven to shake dance floors with heavy basses and memorable melodies.
With each release, Mindex provides his listeners with musical innovations, always surprising them with his newest explorations and journeys in sound. His sonic canvases have been showcased on various labels around the world. His highly acclaimed ‘Teleport EP’ was released on Kalya Scintilla's Merkaba Music in 2013, followed by ‘Intergalactic Kung Fusion’ in 2015 and ‘ReFocused’ in 2016. He has also released on respected labels such as Night Owl Collective, Gravitas Records, Deep Heads Records, Glitch Hop Community, Loodma Recordings and his own label, Time Resonance Music. Mindex has multiple tracks out in compilations with other labels as well, along side many modern day sonic alchemists.
5 AM
5AM is Philly-based producer, musician, graphic designer, and creative magnate Sam Andrus. Once a student at the Rhode Island School of Design burning the midnight oil in the
studio with a soundtrack always in the background, Sam has since forged his inspirations from jazz fusion, funk, and future beats into a style of bass music known to captivate audiences with a spectacle of mesmerizing detail and high resolution sound design. 5AM’s music merges worlds as it expertly weaves electronic production and live instrumentation through creative processing and meticulous mixing. To bring his journey full circle, Sam has expanded his project
to form the 5AM Trio, a collaboration complete with live drumming from ZONE Drums (Aaron Harel) and guitar from Keith Wadsworth. 5AM has soared to new heights, becoming the first electronic music producer to perform at the historic Kings Theatre in New York City for the sold-out Tipsgiving. 5AM is now a seasoned performer who's shared the stage with Tipper, Shpongle, Jade Cicada, Papadosio, Jade Cicada Detox Unit, Random Rab, and more, and lived
and built strong roots up and down the east and west coasts of the US.
