About the artists:

Someone Else aka Sean O'Neal (Foundsound, Philadelphia) – Live PA

Voted as one of the best live electronica acts of 2006 by Groove
magazine, Someone Else has been a major force in forwarding
minimal/experimental dance music since 1998 with label projects Tuning Spork and Foundsound, Unfoundsound moving a once-obscure sub-genre of house music onto the world's dance music stage.

Someone Else's San Francisco performance will feature material from his new album "Pen Caps and Colored Pencils" (cd/2x12") on Foundsound Records.

Kenneth James Gibson aka [a]pendics.shuffle (Adjunct, Los Angeles) – Live PA

Since the late 1990's Kenneth James Gibson has produced countless
releases under multiple monikers, including Eight Frozen Modules,
[a]pendics.shuffle, KJ Gibbs and dubLoner. Since December alone, Mr.Gibson has produced nine new releases for Adjunct, Orac, Mo's Ferry and Lessizmore that firmly establish this LA producer as one of most prolific forces in minimal dance music production.
