96 Back dj will soundtrack the performances. Growing up amongst the bleep legends of the rolling Sheffield hills, Evan began nurturing his Ableton sorcery skills at an early age. At just 18 years old, he released his first EP 'Provisional Electronics' on CPU Records, quickly followed by his *debut* DJ set at the Boiler Room label showcase. Fast forward a bit and Evan's graduated from techno wunderkind to one of the most multi-faceted producers around. His 2019 debut album 'Excitable, Girl' saw him push the boundaries of experimental electro to include italo-tinged euphoric arpeggios, bittersweet cascading piano melodies and, of course, absolutely massive drops.

Iceboy Violet is a British rapper and producer whose unique releases have been bolstering the northwest UK’s experimental scene over the last few years. Borrowing inspiration from places as far flung as the hardcore punk scene to Odd Future to Daniel Johnston, Iceboy Violet’s songs, although painted with a harsh brush, are hued by vibrant colours. In an interview with The Quietus they said, “I want to make music that allows you to have the escape I often need.” The sonic world they build for listeners to escape into is vivid and engulfed in reverberating echoes. Tinted with nostalgia but truly forward looking, warm distorted synths swim over tectonic bass drums as Iceboy Violet spits their verses. Cavernous soundscapes define their debut album Not a Dream But a Controlled Explosion (2023), which is a project about desire and fantasy. These lush ideas rub up against frictive textures and moving vocals that bring a crooning, stretched-out quality to the often frenetic rap canon. Amidst the noisy debris of Iceboy Violet’s tracks is a humble and comforting sense of self-discovery; they have said that forcing themself to be vulnerable to connect with people is a core part of their music.
