J PLATES
J Plates is the production alias of Drum & Bass/Electronic Music producer Jeremy Graham based in New Zealand.
A relatively new name to the genre, J Plates has quickly gained a reputation for his sonically crafted productions, with a handful of International labels being the first to sign his material early 2013.
During this time, one of the Hamilton producers unreleased tracks Defeat The Purpose ended up in the hands of Commercial Suicide Records label boss Klute, and was heavily supported during his own world tour, hinting that alongside a steadily growing backlog of unsigned & forthcoming material, J Plates has begun to establish himself as a producer that is able to compete on an International scale, despite being based on the other side of the globe.
2014 brought more releases for J Plates, having his material appear on UK labels Sonata Recordings, and Offworld Recordings. Both established independent labels in their own right, the releases received fantastic support and recognition from many top-level producers and DJs from around the globe including Con*Natural (aka MC Conrad) and Chris Sabian (Good Looking Records) supporting his tracks.
2015 sees J Plates secure his debut EP release for Greek based record label Audio Theory Recordings, support slots for Dave Owen (USA) / Truth (NZ), and continues to host a monthly radio show titled Atmospherics on Noize Radio Hamilton, streaming live to an international audience and transmitting locally on 88.0FM.

MOSKON
Guy Moskon is an illustrator/cartoonist/artist/other operating out of New Zealand. His minds eye has a rusty tin can and string phone line to the page tied together with a little San Francisco underground comics style mixed with a good old cereal bowl of 90’s gross out Saturday morning cartoons. All delivered in an accessibly lowbrow punk mentality, open mouth coughing on the sanctity of art.
