Leon Switch
Since establishing a production partnership in 1999, Leon Switch & Kryptic Minds have witnessed phenomenal success with every release, and continue to go from strength to strength, ameliorating with every release. Their co-owned labels: Defcom Records & Osiris Music UK is a prominent and much revered institution in the drum & bass scene. Record sales on tracks: 'Take the pain away' and 'No Escape' were sky high and both helped to set a high president which other labels found hard to follow. Simon & Leon extended their collaborative arms further than Defcom Records, crafting a number of both original and remix tracks to be released on a variety of imprints: Penetration, Renegade Hardware, Metalheadz, Tech Freak, Freak Recordings Liftin' Spirits to name a few. It seemed the name: Leon Switch & Kryptic Minds was everywhere.
2007 saw the release of their highly anticipated 'Lost All Faith' Album' hailed by meny as DnB Album of 2007. Here they showcase their diverse talent crossing over into other genres, such as Orchestral and Down Tempo.
Simon & Leon are currently working on their second album due for release in 2008. They also have many 12" single releases lined up for both Defcom Recrds & Osiris Music UK.
DJ Hidden
Coming from a small city in the Netherlands, it did not seem as though there were many people around doing the same stuff like DJ Hidden. Mutual friends kept hinting about "this other guy that does stuff with a computer" and eventually DJ Hidden was introduced to Eye-D.
They decided to team up and in 1996. first Outside Agency and the first (and last) X-Factor hardcore records made their way to stores and both records became "underground hits".
Releasing records provided a welcome boost in the amount of bookings for DJ Hidden. Besides playing vinyl, The Outside Agency even decided to do some live shows which were edited into a videoclip that was aired multiple times on national television.
In the late nineties, the initial glory days of the darker side of hardcore/gabber came to an end. Drum N Bass, breakbeat and IDM became more appealing and, while DJ Hidden kept producing and releasing hardcore, he now also started to experiment with these "different takes" on electronic music.
In 2003 Genosha Recordings was born and ever since, the duo (along with various highly talented producers from all over the world) has been using the label as an output for their unique blend of industrial hardcore mixed with drum n bass and idm elements.
DJ Hidden made a track record of over 90 releases including lots of vinyl 12" singles and two full-length CD albums, not counting a large number of compilations featuring licensed tracks.
New plans include projects such as DJ Hidden (drum n bass/breakcore/IDM), Semiomime (IDM, experimental) and of course The Outside Agency (hardcore); all exploring and expanding a soundtrack of thoughts and emotions by combining elements that are dark, cinematic, atmospheric, melodic, and percussive.
