Bela Emerson:
Innovative performer of electric cello, guitar effects & loops, creating passionate, evocative and spontaneous music of no definable genre. Bela's performances are the stuff of legend - her command of her instrument and ability to attune to the uniqueness of the moment combine to produce music that is remarkably different and always spellbinding. Bela’s new album, Hespera, is released on BiP_HOp in October ’08.
If anyone really does live by those Things To Do Before You Die lists, slot 'see Bela Emerson live' somewhere into the top 50

“On Paul 'Orbital' Hartnoll's new solo album, Lianne Hall takes the place usually taken by Alison Goldfrapp to provide vocals shimmering somewhere between Imogen Heap and the ethereal cooings of Liz Fraser (Cocteau Twins)" Andy Petch-Jex, musicohm.com, 2007
Lianne Hall is a performer "with a voice and style which sounds immediately familiar in its gentle warmth. While her sound may be largely country-esque and folk-inspired, her soul is definitely built on a punk rock foundation" Local Kid Records 2006
