Artists The Pinker Tones (Pinkerland/ES) Professor Manso and Mister Furia have spent almost a lifetime working together, inventing all sorts of possible worlds that converge into one, which is very personal and instantly recognizable. It is their own universe, which accepts and contains their own productions and remixes for other groups, compositions for shows, performances and audiovisual pieces, a powerful image, a studio/home that they have christened Pinkerland, as well as several highly successful albums, especially beyond Spain's borders. The latest, "Life In Stereo", was released this spring and will be the basis for their new and eagerly anticipated live show. http://www.thepinkertones.com/ BFlecha (Arkestra/ES) The founder and cornerstone of the Arkestra collective and armed with songs that are more solid than the rocks off the coast of her native Vigo, Belen Vidal - better known as BFlecha - works at her own pace, slowly but surely, and is shaping up as one of Spain's leading manufacturers of synth pop anthems. Because that is exactly the right description for the tracks on her two maxis released to date, the excellent "Ceja de Carnival" and the more recent "Qvasi Naves", which are full of 80s keyboards, warm vocals, rhythms ranging from house to hip hop (and even synth pop ballads), with perfect high-end radiant finishes. http://soundcloud.com/bflecha Yall Djs (ES) Two are better than one: Yall is a group of Barcelona designers and DJs, who bring together their aesthetic concerns in this project. Namely: the latest trends in dance music (and especially electrohouse) and in the visual arts. With "Ruff & Tuff", their latest EP for the Pink Pong hits factory still warm, Yall promise an assault on the senses and will make everyone that stands in their way dance. http://yallbcn.com/ Cardopusher Vs. Nehuen (Classicworks/ES) The Argentinian and Venezuelan have a lot in common: they are both based in and work on their music in Barcelona; they both are fans of broken beats, thick basses and more contemporary sounds (juke, moombathon, post-dubstep), and both are alumni of the Red Bull Music Academy and tireless craftsmen of dancefloor bombs. Together, they have built up the label Classicworks and new artistic project, Disco Duro, which will be revealed live on the Sónar stage at Montjuďc de Nit. http://soundcloud.com/nehuen http://soundcloud.com/cardopusher
