EVA X is a robot girl powerhouse from Vancouver, BC, who fuses elements of dark electro, industrial pop, synthwave and hyperpop into infectious dark dance. Her unique combination of empowered vocals, nostalgic synths and raw attitude have quickly built a dedicated following in North America, with appearances at both Mechanismus Festival and Terminus. Her debut album "I Dream of A Reality", released on Distortion Productions, made appearances on multiple Best Of 2022 lists, and was backed by extensive touring, including a full US tour in 2023 supporting Moris Blak.

*****************************************************************

[melter] comprises Robert Hyman and Jax Allos: a sonic disturbance made of flesh, blood, and machine.

Their 2023 self-titled EP ranges from the jarring, distorted rhythms and menace of dark alternative rock and industrial noise, through to the brooding atmospheres of darkwave and grinding gloom.

Onstage, Hyman’s propulsive battery of live drums drives the duo’s mix of electronics and heavy distorted bass; whilst Allos stalks the stage like some menacing hybrid of Peter Murphy’s more sinister sister, and an animatronic pterosaur that threatens to malfunction at any moment.
