For decades, Jim Haynes has been a stalwart of the Northern California noise scene, with his corrosive approach to noise and damaged electro-acoustics. His work has been published by Editions Mego, White Centipede Noise, Tapeworm, Monorail Trespassing, as well as his own imprint The Helen Scarsdale Agency, amongst many others.

Relay For Death is the noise project for the twin sisters Roxann and Rachal Spikula. Their hermetic works consistently reflect a bleak nihilism, all the while carving an autonomous space for survival as the rest of the existence crumbles. Previous works have been published by Hanson, Total Black, Helen Scarsdale, No Rent, and RRRecords.
Colin Andrew Sheffield lives in Austin TX where he runs the Elevator Bath record label. As a sound artist, active since the mid-'90s, Sheffield's audio collage work has consistently focused on the use of samples: deconstructed loops of hidden melodies and textures found in his collection of physical media. These snatches of sound are layered in harmony and/or at odds with one another, giving rise to the ethereal undercurrents inherent in his selections.

Andrew Anderson, based in Portland OR, creates sound pieces out of carefully curated field recordings, hidden samples, destroyed tape, and various instruments, both electronic and analog, with a focus on quiet repetition, drone, and patient change.
