Working as a collective to make live visuals as impressive and entertaining as the live digital audio sets and live musical performances that they go hand in hand with during Looking Sound events.

Here is a little more about these artists :

DEAD SILENCE SYNDICATE
DSS are not really trying to be a live DnB band as such, weve always just played what ever we are into at the time! Just so happens that most of the time we're into extremely nasty basslines and beats!.. whats your excuse?
We dont use any sequencers or backing tracks and we play only the finest hand crafted instruments imported from grandma pegs backyard here's some nasty gossip about us:
'Blistering, eardrum-perforating Drum 'n' Bass thrashed on real live instruments by a band who make Red Snapper sound like Craig David by comparison. Bass-heavy, brooding, bombastic and raw as botulism'- www.dogsonacid.com
Crashing genres together, tightening the all-live musical fury and opening minds wherever they go- www.factmagazine.co.uk
This deadstupid lot are without doubt the nicest chaps Ive ever met!- welsh Gareths gran

16Hertz & Johnny Oakley & Motormonk (Live A/V Set)
16Hertz and Johnny Oakley are them Irish lads hell bent on squeezing the most out of real deal electronic hardware, possibly to make a point of it and have fun in the process. They began doing gigs heavily in Dublin about 4 years ago around this time, when they were amongst a handful of producers who put together full-fledged Dubstep, Techno and Electro live shows. Moving to Berlin they traversed most of the venues over there quickly, keeping it especially tight with The Standards and Bass the World crews. Currently based in London the duo is consolidating their underground presence over some of the bigger venues such as Cafe 1001, Corsica Studios and a myriad of classic warehouse raves. So it wouldn't be exactly mad to expect a full live slash improvised show with some heavy machinery such as MPCs, Mono Machines, Roland MKS-50s and a mean machine of a Doepfer Modular Synth System lashing out Dub, Techno, Electro and Live Electronics.,

Motormonk hails from the world's first cyberpunk city -according to one Philip K. Dick-, Istanbul. He graduated from the college as a Visual Communication Designer around 2005 and did a lot of time in digital ad agencies getting quite multi-disciplinary along the way. Shifting his focus over to moving image he also had a run in with further education in Film and TV, till one sunny Sunday cruising on his motorcycle he got run over from behind by a car driven by two chicks and landed not so safely, going cyborg with his left upper arm. His arm now houses a shiny titanium plate with many many screws that amplify his feel for cosmic raves and radio waves from outer space. After putting his bits back together over the following couple of years he moved to London in 2009, now doing freelance work as an art director and a motion designer while looking into ways to blur out those lines between the designer's and the artist's life.,
