Sterling Moss

With dynamic musical taste and timing sharper than a razor, Sterling Moss is renowned for his technically explosive DJ style that never fails to electrify crowds the world over. Having toured extensively throughout North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia, Sterling regularly travels around the globe to an exotic list of countries, playing at clubs and festivals to hundreds of thousands every year alongside the world’s DJ elite. Once resident with Dancevalley & HQ in Holland and Tribal in London, Sterling now serves a residency with Harley Davidson as tour DJ on their Bike Festivals, having played over 7 years for them at destinations all round Europe, culminating every September with the 100,000 attended European Bike Week in Austria. Music production has remained the in-demand creative mainstay of Sterling’s abilities, and his own label catalogue of Raceway, Racetrax and 99.9 has supported his musical output onto more than 40 other international imprints including: Stay Up Forever, RAW, Hydraulix, Cluster, Hardasfunk, Wah Wah, Subcult, Neuroshocked, Powertools, Yolk, Scythe Squadron, Polymeric, Apex, Hellhouse, Nukleuz, One Inch, Rotters Golf Club, Sweet Peaks, No Entry, Strata, BR-909, Carbon Audio, TMM, Keep On Techno, Corrupted, Corrosive, Teknic, Braingravy, Bordelik, Flatlife, Maximum Minimum, Aktivists, Abusive 303, Acid Corp, Bodyshock, Hive & Torque. Sterling has worked alongside the mighty Stay Up Forever crew for the last few years, tirelessly stoking a 303 & 909 driven rebellion in the studio alongside Chris Liberator to create a huge body of work that has ripped dancefloors apart across the world with devastating effect. They have sold out events in countries including Australia, Japan and Brazil with their live show, and their genre defining hits including: ‘Croydon Girl’, ‘Punk Attitude’, ‘I’m Bored’ and ‘Massive Line’ will be making waves for years to come. ‘E.S.C.’ is another alias Sterling has recorded under as part of ‘The Boardroom’ collective with Steve Boardman. Their work saw its way onto two highly acclaimed collaborative albums with Andrew Weatherall, which gained rave reviews universally from the music press. The collective has also played live at some of the world's most prestigious venues including London's 'Fabric' & Berlin's 'Panorama Bar'. The 'Sound Lab' studio is the nerve centre for Sterling’s production work, but he also worked extensively alongside Roland Synthesisers Japan as an official programmer on their MC-909 Groovebox, after they were impressed with his use of their vintage TR-909 drum machine. He has also released two sample packs with Chris Liberator through New York’s Industrial Strength Records, which contain a wide-ranging palette of sonic tools for up and coming producers to utilise. While constantly striving to innovate with his productions and DJ'ing, Sterling Moss always looks to explore new musical territories and ideas, while relentlessly touring his compelling sound around the globe.

Voicedrone

Lasha Jorjoliani is an often-unreadable enigma, lending much of his time to his studio, curating line-ups and sharpening his performances in the booth. Although an undeniable figurehead of the scene, Voicedrone is by no means explicitly tied to co-founding FOLD. Four years on, Lasha is in an indestructible one-way lane, having developed a graphic, dynamic sound that we come together to experience. At his core is a passion to create and nurture community; this purpose is channelled into every event he plays - here at home, in Europe and beyond. Playing at influential venues and parties including his beloved HTBX London has preserved his significance in the underground scene and his constant admiration from the FOLD family. The phrase “leading by example” may be somewhat overused, but in the case of Voicedrone, such a statement is entirely appropriate.

One of the minds behind the infamous FOLD in East London. Heading up the technical operation of the venue and holding down the fort as one of the in house resident DJs.

Alba Heidari

Growing up in Madrid, where she garnered her DJing experience, Alba Heidari has consistently sought to explore a range of different genres. With a comprehensive knowledge of drum n bass, breaks, hardcore, hardtek, electro, and even gothic industrial, she defined her technical prowess and discovered the raw industrial techno that pulls together her versatile sound. Whether she is utilising vinyl or digital sources for her blistering DJ sets, Alba’s uncanny mix of punishing and playful has made her a growing staple at parties in Spain and in London, including a residency at Aria. She formed the collective "D.T.V" (Decoding The Void) with frequent collaborator Manson X to further sharpen their skills and bring theirs and other artists’ music to a broader audience. Alba’s bold sound stands in sharp contrast with her modest character. Her passion for finding unknown, local, and underrated releases benefits the underground dance music community at large while the original tracks charge her DJ sets with a unique energy that defies mainstream trends.
