There are very few artists who have made as much impact in such a short space of time as Maya Jane Coles. At only 23 years old she has burst not only onto the House Music scene but also into dub step with her Nocturnal Sunshine project and live electronics with She is Danger. Maya has sat at the top of both the Beatport and RA charts with her previous releases on Real Tone, Hypercolour and Mobilee as well as a run of remixes for Crosstown Rebels, Defected and Leftroom.

Ralph is best known as the original resident DJ at the legendary Back To Basics club in Leeds. Thishas now become one of the most famous clubs on the planet. Lawson played the very first record there and implemented the classic long sets that became his trademark. Always unique his style has developed over the years to become what is know worldwide as the 2020sound, giving reference to thelabel he created in 1995 which has also gone on to be one of the very best electronic music labels inthe world. From the late 90s, the UKs best kept secret was out and requests to tour came in from all over the world. Never one to give into fashion he has stayed true to the spirit of House Music withalways a cutting electro funk edge. Since 2003 he has been working with the 2020Soundsystem liveproject and touring the world. In 2007 we saw his first solo album for 3 years released by Fabric. He swiftly followed this up with a compilation for 20202Vision as below. Ralph plans to tour the album this year while completing the second Soundsystem album for early2008.

Simon Baker is fast becoming a major player in the global electronic community. Working steadily through the ranks at 2020 Vision after producing his first single The Lip Trick in 2004 he has worked, fine-tuned and greatly improved his production skills gaining worldwide respect with a bang this year.

Simon has been collecting and playing records for over 15 years. A versatile and passionate DJ, he doesn't like pigeon holing his style, as he is a firm believer if its good, play it. But his passion is for the finest underground, deep electronic house and techno music, represented by the releases on his superb Infant Records.

Danielle Moore was located crooning her way round a house party in Manchester and given a microphone instead of a glass of wine. Tim Davies, having worked with Jim and Chris previously on CP tracks, broke from the shackles of the photo lab to play bass guitar, and finally Matt Klose, who had also worked with the boys before, was given the task of out-drumming the drum machine. We are still a little unsure what happened to the Dr Rhythm box but Matt assures us in his best cockney that hes taken care of it. Now settled into the five piece format Crazy P with Jim and Chris at the production controls, the band have been touring extensively over the past few years including many trips round England, Ireland, Scotland and a couple to Wales.
