:: JEF STOTT ::.
Six Degrees Recording Artist Jef Stott has been deftly navigating the realms of the global remix for over a decade. As a producer, he has founded the projects LUMIN, and STELLAMARA, produced releases for for MC RAI, and SOM'MA. He has released many tracks and remixes for the Six Degrees Label as well as written tracks for the popular Sims Video Games, and composed for several modern dance, Tribal Bellydance and theater productions.
As a musical anthropologist, he has studied with master musicians from Morocco, Algeria, Egypt, Iran and Turkey which led him to become accomplished on several traditional stringed and percussion instruments of the Middle East. These instruments figure prominently in his composition and production work as well as inform his sensibility about cultural relativism and issues of appropriation.
His work has been released on several record labels including Universal, EMI, Six Degrees, Hearts of Space, Triloka and City of Tribes. He has performed at festivals and concerts in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Hawaii, Istanbul, Edinburgh, London, and Mexico. His new record label EMBARKA RECORDS has released the debut from MC RAI and new titles from artists he is producing as well as his own work and remixes. Jef lives and works in San Francisco.
.:: DRUMSPYDER ::.
Drumspyder (Scott Sterling) comes from the the dance, theater and circus bohemia of the San Francisco bay area. Originally a percussionist with some the city's pioneering circus ensembles, his interest turned to middle eastern music and global fusion electronica. His collaboration with bay area bellydancers can be seen on DVDs such as "By Dancers, for Dancers Vol. 3" (Cheeky Girls) and "Tribal Revolution" (HMC). He is currently the music director of the Nekyia (www.thenekyia.org) and was recently music director for the Crucible production of Stravinsky's "Firebird", a spectacular remix of this classic which included pyrotechnics, breakdancers and motorcycle stunts alongside renowned ballet dancers. His tracks and remixes can be found on "Desert Grooves 3" (Water Music), "Tribal Matrix 2" (forthcoming from Dakini Records), and "Global Dancefloor" (Six Degrees)
