Andrew Weatherall has carved out a massively respected career in British techno. As a producer moving from the sounds of Madchester to downbeat to experimental techno through the '90s, Weatherall could've easily ridden the big beat (Chemical Brothers) or high-profile-DJ (Oakenfold) waves at the end of the decade, choosing instead to pursue, and in many ways define, a more cutting-edge, IDM approach. He participated in two big-name collaborations which would appear on Warp Records, beginning early on in the label's now highly respected run and remains one of the world's most dedicated and top DJs.

With residences at London’s Dig Your Own Rave and Kubicle nights and regular slots at Fabric and Weekend, Hector is rapidly establishing himself as one of the most exciting young producers on the planet, effortlessly balancing his will to experiment with commitment to the founding spirit of house. Mixing up styles and moods but always focused firmly on the dance-floor’s needs and desires, Hector’s selections nod to house music’s past but engage fully with its future; his sets have energy, precision and soul.
2009 shaped up to be a big year for Hector: in addition to a slew of 12” releases and a continually hectic DJ schedule, Hector is working on a new transatlantic party concept with Detroit natives Seth Troxler (Crosstown Rebels, Circus Company) and Sean Reeves. Keep your eyes open and your ears peeled.

Dave Congreve has become nothing short of a house/techno legend in Nottingham as a veteran of the Bomb era and more recently resident extraordinaire here at Stealth. The man has played with everybody including Ricardo Villalobos, Cassy, Magda, Mathew Jonson, Carl Craig and Luciano. No slouch in the studio either, collaborating in the studio with Steve Boardman (Boardroom/Klang Electronic/Playhouse). Together they have remixed Two Lone Swordsman for Rotters Golf Club, and Brett Johnson for Leftroom Recordings; and are working on forthcoming releases of original material.
