CHRIS SU (HU) [SUBTITLES]
Chris.SU is one of the commanding producers and DJs of the Hungarian scene, among others he has helped to put his country on the map of drum and bass. Since his breaktrough track "Astro-Sine", released on Trace's label DSCI4 in 2002, his tunes have been in rotation from drum and bass' finest djs. He’s also been voted as best producer and best DJ of the year multiple times by the readers of Impulsecreator (drumandbass.hu).
Chris' musical career started early, as a cellist he had classical musical training since the age of 7. He began producing electronic music in 1996 in various genres such as hardcore techno, breakbeat and house. His first drum and bass 12" has been released in 2000 on Hungarian based Subscope records ("Time Warp" b/w "Angel").
Rousing on his success as a producer, in 2001 he bought a pair of decks and a mixer and he started DJing. Since then he already had gigs in the UK, USA, Australia, New Zealand and numerous European countries. His DJ sets are known of combining the various subgenres of d’n’b and presenting it with good mixing technique.
Besides his solo material Chris has made various collaborations with Concord Dawn, Ill.Skillz, Black Sun Empire and SKC, including tracks like Desert Siege/Crash (Commercial Suicide), What’s Happening (Hospital Records) and more.
He is also involved in a project called Tactile consisting of five people, Chris.SU, SKC, Longman, Bratwa and Safair. After their successful debut album SUPER SYSTEM they decided to launch their own imprint Tactile Vinyl.
His highly anticipated F.A.T.E. EP has been recently released on Subtitles Music UK.

FAR TOO LOUD (UK) [FUNKATECH]
Far Too Loud, a.k.a. Oli Cash, has gained a reputation for hi-tech, dancefloor-destroying music that makes people throw their hands in the air and go crazy. Think high-energy, aggressive funk, big basslines, crazy edits, intricate production and you’ll know the sound.
Since his first release, back in 2005, things have gone ever upward. Winning “Best Single” at the Breakspoll Awards in 2007 was a huge boost early on and later that year the huge FTL anthem “Play It Loud”, which saw a move from breakbeat into big, dirty electro-house grooves, received a massive response and remains a firm crowd-pleaser to this day. Subsequent chart-smashers including “Bring Back Boogie” and “Megaloud”, and remixes for the likes of Lily Allen and The Crystal Method confirmed Far Too Loud's place among the big guns of electro-house.
2012 saw Far Too Loud grow even more, with numerous Beatport top ten chart positions, remixes for artists such as Excision and Cyberpunkers and the release of his multi-genre Firestorm EP, which shook up the whole bass music scene. 2013 looks to be even bigger, as the “Faster Than Light” EP drops on June 3rd, featuring four brand new tracks bursting with his explosive trademark production and energy.
Having toured the world over, Oli is well experienced in delivering unique sets packed with high energy, whether it’s 200 people in a sweaty underground club or 20,000 at an outdoor festival, you can be sure it’s going to go off!
