Marc Laidlaw

Best known for his work on Valve's Half-Life series until 2016, Laidlaw now creates experimental electronic music from his home base in LA. "I like mountains and caves" he notes on his Bandcamp page. Most of his creative energy for the last few years has gone into music, studying, writing, and performing. He's been working with local producer Ryan Pollie on a full LP that is "steeped heavily in Americana, psychedelic folk rock, and general weirdness." His musical output includes collaborations like "75 Baud Blossoms" with seachael and various experimental releases showcased on his Bandcamp.

King Pari

King Pari is a Los Angeles-based funk and psychedelic soul duo consisting of Joe Paris Christensen and Cameron Kinghorn, who had been playing in the same Twin Cities scenes for years before forming what they describe as an "almost accidental project." The band began when Joe sent Cameron some tape machine jams, prompting Cameron to respond "what is this? I want in." Their Minneapolis funk pedigree anchors their music, both members played alongside some of Prince's closest associates, and Joe's previous band was among the last that Prince personally invited to play at Paisley Park. Their sound has been described as "stonersoul, lo-fi R&B, dub meets '80s electro with a heavy dose of funk," embracing imperfections and lo-fi inclinations in their entirely self-produced work. After their first gig opening for Kamasi Washington at First Avenue in Minneapolis in 2019, the duo relocated to Los Angeles and signed with Stones Throw Records, releasing their debut album "There It Goes" in October 2024.
