Galcher Lustwerk is a Cleveland-born, NYC-based artist who's been a consistent force on the underground club scene since his debut release in 2013. His unique style of shadowy, low-slung, hypnotic hip-house blends rough, jazzy house rhythms with his distinctive low-key style. His guest DJ mix comes soon after the release of Vestibule Remixes, a four-track remix collection for his recent Vestibule EP featuring contributions from Ricardo Villalobos, Skee Mask, Saoirse, and Yaleesa Hall.
Maria Minerva is the alias of Estonian-born, LA-based electronic musician, producer, DJ, and label runner Maria Juur.

The release marks the inaugural release on her own newly-launched imprint, VIIS.
E.VAX is the solo alias of Evan Peter Mast, an American musician and producer best-known as one-half of Ratatat who's influential style touched into the electronic, rock, hip-hop, and pop worlds. First putting out his debut E.VAX album in 2000 ahead of Ratatat's iconic self-titled debut album in 2004, Evan has gone on to collaborate with prominent hip-hop and R&B artists like Kid Cudi, Jay-Z, Nas, and Teyana Taylor while keeping the E.VAX project alive to explore a more introspective, stripped-back sound. His brand new E.VAX album Just Like Fire came out on June 26th.
