Nuck 'n Futz Nuck 'n Futz is an explosive duo consisting of well-known producer Funkefeller and the popular west-coast DJ Big Redd. Known for their high-energy, funky electro house and their home-wrecking dubstep and drum & bass productions and live sets, this fiery combo is a force to be reckoned with. Since 2006 DJ Big Redd has been tearing up clubs and underground dance floors in Scottsdale, Phoenix, Tempe, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and many more. When performing live, Big Redd shows an impressive ability to hype a crowd and take his listeners on an adventurous journey they never forget. Big Redd is a virtuoso on the decks, largely as a result of being a drummer for 13 years. Funkefeller's "mad scientist" identity was born from being a computer scientist by day and an explosive electronic music producer by night. As an EDM artist, Funkefeller has applied his technical programming skills to music, resulting in stylish experiments that blend hard-hitting electro with juicy dubstep and nasty drum & bass. Starting on the piano at the age of four, young Funkefeller went on to master a multitude of instruments and later became a member of several hard rock and heavy metal bands as lead singer and guitar player. The two artists were brought together purely by fate when they were challenged to do a set together one night at a party. They immediately recognized that they had an extraordinary powerful presence when playing together, which many have compared to being "like super-heroes". From that was born the dynamic duo that thousands have come to know and love as Nuck 'n Futz.

Switchup Switchup describes himself as an experimentist producer who prefers to compose his tracks on-the-fly as he goes along. Having grown up in Chicago, he spent a lot of time doing improvisation in freestyle rap as well as instrumentation. Refining these skills, he became a great jazz musician in college and began producing original scores for the music department at Illinois State University. When beginning a new peice of music, he will often start by programming a simple beat, then sequence a baseline as the beat is playing and add parts one by one in this manner. He then tweaks the parameters of the sounds to his heart's content and adds additional samples, sweeps, and fills until he has something he likes. Watching Switchup create music is an experience in and of itself. Because of his non-linear production workflow, he is able to take this same approach to a live audience. Many have compared the Switchup live experience to watching a composer write scores of music in real time, as if you could hear what he is thinking.
