"The revolution starts with you." Anyone wanting an explanation for The Konspiracy Group would be best directed to look at the above quote from Vancouver agit-punks, Che Chapter 127, as it encompasses in but a few brief words what this multi-tiered organisation is all about. The Konspiracy itself is the simple idea that art (in our case music, writing, and design) can be an agent for change — that electronic music, despite its sometimes faceless nature, can be used as a vehicle to shake not only the hips but the head as well. The Konspiracy Group is an artist booking agency, originally founded in 2001 by James Graham. Tie almost a decade’s experience in the music industry as DJ, producer, journalist, label owner, and national radio host together with a staunchly independent vision, style, and attitude and you have the man behind the Konspiracy. The roster of artists that are booked under the Konspiracy banner have played across Europe and North America with DJs and live acts as wide ranging as Richard Devine, Sutekh, Safety Scissors, Akufen, Klute, High Contrast, Shimon, Not Breathing, UFO!, Ed Rush and Optical, Dean DeCosta, Venetian Snares, DJ Phantasy, Storm, Lori The Hi Fi Princess, DJ Lee, Phil Western, Dieselboy and Pete Lawrence among others. Front-runners and boundary pushers in their respective genres, the revolution starts with them and moves onto you with the ease of the needle dropping on the record. Watch the skies and your bassbins. We have arrived. |
