Applecat

Internationally acclaimed electronic musician, and vocalist: AppleCat was raised on the West-Coast of Canada, specializing in Deep Dubstep, Fairytale Bass, Trap, and with various World influences.

On the dancefloor she weaves a mystic underworld vibe - stating that her intention is " to have us all come out the other side moved in some way - the kind of movement that is far beyond being solely physical."

Grime and poetic grace, with live mashup & reworks, AppleCat blends cinematic sound, with primal bass. This cosmic booty bouncing dubwitch sets bend the perception of "genre" exemplifying her unparalleled "je ne sais quoi.”

AppleCat is a main focus of a feature documentary about women in electronic music. ‘Amplify Her’ was released worldwide in 2017 (www.amplifyher.com/).

She was recently featured in DJMag and has performed her act all around the world, including venues/festivals: Burning Man, Rifflandia, Enchanted Forest Gathering, Evolve Festival, Halifax Pop Explosion, and Electric Love Festival. She has shared a stage with Truth, Seven Lions, Zeds Dead, David Starfire, Emancipator, PhuturePrimitive, Bluetech, Clozee, The Polish Ambassador, A Tribe Called Red, Tipper, Govinda, Random Rab, An-Ten-Nae and many more.

"Music is a possession that I desire no exorcism from. " - AppleCat.

Violinist Areza, hailing from Portland, OR has played for 19 years - honing a mix of hip-hop strings,
jazz, country fiddle, classical and electronic dance music (EDM) he has
shaped a sound that is truly unique to his own. This unparalleled act is what happens when you combine the Wildman
Hendrix of Strings, and a booty bouncing dubwitch in one shared offering.
Equating to one hell of a magical primal symphony.
