After passing these guys at Global Gathering, I looked them up, listened to their work, spoke to them and thought that DMb readers should know all about them too…

JJ Metcalf and George Hilton, aka Vibrosis and Prof. Oblivion, won a Mixmag competition to open the Mixmag Terrace on the Friday, and their set proved that they were worthy winners!  The Buckinghamshire (UK) duo are based in London, and are hoping to play some more big stages in the not too distant future.  They play a wide range of styles, mixing some of the most unlikely tracks together – check out the Siegfried Android pages below to listen to some of them.

Vibrosis told DMb:  “Global was unreal! Seriously, we were in Belgium when we got the call, had to take a week out of our trip to do it, was stressful was but well worth it. Apparently we nearly got disqualified because the mix we sent Mixmag overran by like 10 minutes.  The crowd were easily the biggest and best crowd we’ve played to so far - you guys just loved every bit of it!”

Ones to keep an eye out for in the future…
