Chuquimamani-Condori is Elysia Crampton Chuquimia, a multidisciplinary artist & musician belonging to the Pakajaqi nation of Aymara people. Their recent works include Rayo Mix (2022), Across the Policed World: A Transnocturnal Huayño (2022), and Amaru's Tongue: Daughter (2021), a collaborative work with Joshua Chuquimia Crampton. They also continue to do work with AIM SoCal, the Southern California chapter of the American Indian Movement (founded in 1968).

Initially classed as a turntablist, Lucas Abela’s work has rarely resembled anything in the field. Today these turntable roots have become almost unrecognisable, evolving into his infamous glass instrument, the shards being nothing more than a giant diamond tipped stylus vibrated vocally. He has been perfecting the instrument since it's invention in 2003, performing internationally as Justice Yeldham.
