SUUGAR, also known as Mr. Gremlin, is a Moroccan trap artist born and raised in Rabat. Born in 2001, he began making music in 2018, shaping a sound rooted in melodic trap while freely moving across different hip-hop styles. Known for haunting adlibs, hypnotic melodies, and a dark, cinematic world, SUUGAR creates immersive atmospheres where emotion, pressure, money, and love collide. With more music on the way, he is focused on pushing his sound beyond borders and onto a global stage.
Kashaiof (ַּכָשיֹוף) is the duo project of Eyal Lally Bitton and Itzik Gil Avizohar. Named after an archaic electronic components store, the project’s title is also a phonetic echo of the Hebrew word ‘Kishoof’ (כִּשּוף) meaning ‘sorcery’, a practice the duo takes to heart as they conjure up technology and magic elements into their sonic artillery.
Vincent Schmidt, a virtuoso of fingerstyle guitar, has established himself as a key figure in this musical genre, with the release of four albums and more than 150 concerts in Switzerland and abroad. Vincent taught himself the "one man band" guitar style, drawing inspiration from greats like Chris Woods, Jon Gomm, and especially Tommy Emmanuel, who remains his biggest influence. At just 18 years old, he composed and released his first solo album, Feelings, followed by Between Hope and Fire in 2019, and Ode to Breath in 2023. Alongside his musical career, he pursued higher education in Jazz at the Haute École de Musique de Lausanne (HEMU), where he earned a Bachelor’s and then a Master’s in Jazz Pedagogy, which he completed in 2024. During his journey, he received several awards, including the prestigious Cully Jazz Prize, recognizing his ability to develop ambitious and varied musical projects. Vincent Schmidt also became the Swiss ambassador for the Dowina acoustic guitar brand and co-founded the MIGS Academy, a guitar school in collaboration with the Montreux International Guitar Show. In parallel, he has been involved in various musical projects, notably with the band A.W.A, performing on the stages of Switzerland’s biggest festivals, such as the Paléo Festival and Zermatt Unplugged. In November 2024, he released his fourth album “We’ll get there, Eventually” in collaboration with jazz pianist Natan Niddam, whom he met during his studies at HEMU.
