Ivy Nostrum is Paul Margree, a sound artist and improvisor from London. He blends explorations of everyday objects with feedback systems to explore ideas of instability and stasis. His work produces uneasy states of listening verging from deep, haunting drones to the delicate and nuanced exploration of daily minutiae. He has released work on SND HLS, Liquid Library, Structured Disasters, Wormhole World and Invisible City Records.

JB Glazer is a producer, composer, and dancer. His music sits between concrete and computer music and comes from a collaboration between the internet and IRL.  He has previously released on Them There Records, Curl and most recently February's Everything is Heavy Rain, on his own label, glint music. He has previously collaborated with Bianca Scout, Elena Isolini, and Violence Grass Band.
