Rustival 荒島節 2024

BUSYBOI has been making waves with his unique taste for music selection that effortlessly blends irregular grooves from House, Techno, Trance, and even Leftfield Bass. BUSYBOI is keen to make a masterful blend of unusual elements, creating compounds of organic and spiritual sounds that always keep the audience guessing. BUSYBOI is a force to be reckoned with on the dance floor. In 2019, BUSYBOI decided to organize the music collective THÜR alongside Subez Yeti and Adipta. Since then, he has been an active member of the local underground scene. He has performed in various Asian venues, including supporting Mars89 (JP) on tour in China. BUSYBOI is poised to become a household name in the electronic music scene with his unparalleled talent and passion for music. BUSYBOI persevered through the COVID pandemic to release his debut EP 'Tribe Exploring', which received positive feedback. He recently performed a mini tour to celebrate the release in Hong Kong and Macau. He has also been invited to be the support act for B E N N (TW / Over my body) and The Glitch Mob (US) in June, highlighting his versatility as an artist and his eagerness to explore new opportunities.

Casey Anderson’s take on house and techno is based on his deep respect for dance music’s roots: Detroit techno, Soul Train funk, and cosmic German electronic music. Ignoring charts, trends and clichés, his DJ sets are playful and unpredictable. Casey is constantly connecting new dots between obscure, classic and futuristic 4/4 dance music without shying away from the unexpected 80s synthpop or a disco anthem at peak hour. In 2013 the American-born DJ released his first tracks on Italian label Opilec Music (alongside inspirations like Derrick May and Todd Terje) before joining fellow Hong Kong DJ Frederic Neve to launch Typhoon 8 Records where he has continued to release deep, dubby techno and house. Scoring his first DJ residencies at leading underground spots Yumla and Bassment, since 2009 he's played the closing slot at the city's Clockenflap Music Festival twice, and after co-founding the party collective Humdrum he frequently hosted and supported international guests like Deetron, Jimpster...

Changa is a core member of 15Grams, a music community based in the New Territories. Changa is deeply rooted in the soundsystem culture with a sweet spot for Dubstep, Drum And Bass, and reggae.

Hugo first discovered underground house and techno when he worked as an event photographer in 2010. The bold and mesmerizing tunes he heard at legendary venues Yumla and Bassment piqued his interest in the art of DJing. With his photography on hiatus since 2017, Hugo now plays consistent, well-curated sets to diverse audiences. Hugo's taste in 4/4 dance music can best be described as “very deep”, but he also enjoys experimenting with hip hop and indie rock – the two genres he grew up with - when the moment is right. Arriving at each gig with an external hard drive worth of uncompressed music, there are always the right tunes at Hugo's disposal, for a bar session, club night or beach party. Hugo has played at some of Hong Kong's most notable events and venues including Acadana, Fauve Radio, Mihn Club, Oma, Schweinehund Teknival and Shi Fu Miz Festival.

̸BIOGRAPHY House/Techno DJ based in Hong Kong Inspired by music and art at a very young age, Mill H, the tattoo artist-turned-DJ, has been exploring his art of sound since 2009. Mill’s selection is beyond the boundary of genres and styles. The music he chooses to play often embraces a rich texture and reflects the atmosphere of the crowd and venue. For Mill, a great DJ set is a journey of balancing and merging the mind and music——aurally feeling the space; physically expressing the emotion. Mill is also a co-founder and resident DJ of the party collective, UTOPIA Hong Kong. UTOPIA has been actively involved with and pushing Hong Kong’s electronic music scene, gathering both local listeners and performers at once.

Nanogram is the Hong Kong-based DJ project of Jason Ng. Since 2017, Nanogram has evolved through different genres ultimately finding his unique style of blending techno, industrial, and experimental electronic music. Heavily inspired by post-punk and industrial music culture, Nanogram has since determined to bring the dystopian sound to Hong Kong. Realizing the lack of well-tuned sound systems and a music-focused venue in Hong Kong, which limits the possibility of enjoying the far left segment of electronic music, Nanogram found a team of like-minded and driven individuals to build 宀 Club together and started his event series at the club – Entropy 熵, which emphasizes on experimentation on the art of selection, mixing and live performances. Nanogram is a resident DJ of 宀 Club and has performed alongside Phase Fatale, Mr. Ho, Sinus O, and more. He has also performed at a renowned experimental venue in Tokyo, KGR Tokyo, and has contributed a podcast mix to C-Kay’s Coma Hole series.

Hong Kong based.

Yadin plays a jumble of spooky noise, wonky disco, voguey house, b-boy electro and loose-limbed techno from his favourite labels like Osare!, Discos Capablanca, Atrophy and more so if these words sound interesting to you there is a good chance that you will dance rather than stare. While living in Singapore, he co-ran the notoriously decadent after-hours series Breakfast Club and later held a residency at Headquarters - where his off-kilter selections made him an ideal supporting act for visiting DJs like Black Merlin and Intergalactic Gary. Currently based in Hong Kong, he is now a resident of 宀 and their flagship industrial/ebm/techno night - Entropy 熵. He also co-runs RADIO HURUHARA, a mix series focused on the stranger side of electronic music.
