Shackleton´smaverick take on big basslines and complex beats doesn't fit into easy categories and that's how it's going to stay. Shackleton has been carving out his own brand of eclecticism on Skull Disco releases so far with intricate, snaking percussion, hypnotic melodies, seriously deep bass lines and dubwise sensibilities. Beside that he's running the Skull Disco label with Appleblim.
Skull Disco releases often tended to use unusual sounds, atypical of the dubstep genre; they often eschew the familiar drum tropes of dubstep for African percussion and samples of ethnic vocals, combined with massive sub-bass, and sometimes elements of four to the floor Basic Channel-style dub techno. Some tracks (particularly later Shackleton releases) carry a strong Muslimgauze influence. Minimal techno producer Ricardo Villalobos is a fan; he produced a nearly twenty-minute remix of Shackleton's Blood on my Hands after expressing an interest and being handed the core samples of the song at a DJ set. Shackleton has returned the favour by remixing Minimoonstar from Villalobos' Vasco EP Part 1.

In 2001 Bitz began DJing in Graz and founded the Houseverbot label in 2002. Around that time he started promoting parties together with fellow mates F. Puschmann and Clara Moto with Minimal Housing at Kunsthaus Graz and plenty of events in Sub. After that the busy Houseverbot crew started promoting the legendary Birds party series at Postgarage together with the Soundsilo Crew. 2003 marked the beginning of Bitz as a Techno / House / Electronica producer. Nowadays he's also part of the Dangerous Tweakers production outfit together with pianist Martin Riegelnegg & Bogdanovic whichs sound can be described as post-minimalist techno with a hint of deep house and a breeze of funk.

Als Gründer von Projekten wie stubenmusicstudio.com, lofi deathstar und barcodeterror prod., veröffentlichte Element012 seit 1999 mehr als 10 konzeptionelle Alben und auf einigen Samplern wie disko404’s ottotto oder dem fm4 Soundpark Sampler Microtonner. Seit 2003 ist er ein Resident DJ des wöchentlichen Sonntags Abstrakt. Die Musik von Element012 lässt sich irgendwo zwischen Noise, HipHop, Abstract Dub und Breakbeat einordnen.

El Rakkas are a DJ/production duo with a strong passion for the deeper end of bass music. In their back2back DJ sets you'll encounter a mixture of percussive dubstep, dark 2-step-garage beats, bassy minimal and reverbed dub-techno. Their own productions have received lots of support from the international dubstep-scene and will see vinyl & digital releases on labels like Lo Dubs, Echodub, Surface Tension and Trenchant Dubs in the upcoming months!

Through her love for bass music feelipa has pushed the sound of dubstep for years being a longstanding member of Zagreb's cfsn as well as Graz' very own disko404. Her current DJ sets consist of a good mixture of bass music styles around 140 bpm - from deep to bouncy and beyond - with an eye on the dancefloor she definately knows how to roll.

B.L.O.ist alles, nur kein Unbekannter in den hiesigen Grazer Bassmusik-Kreisen. Als Mitglied von disko404 bereichert er Parties mit einem stylistisch breitgefächerten Repertoire, welches von Hip Hop über Booty Bass, Acid oder Jungle bis hin zu Dubstep und Grime so ziemlich alles abdeckt. Bringt ihm Tieropfer und huldigt ihm!
