Sista Carmen is the singer/singjay of United Flavour. She was born in Badajoz, where she studied music theory, musical composition, choral music, and piano for eight years at the Conservatory of Music. After studying Journalism at the University of Seville, she went to Prague, where she met the musician and producer Djei Gogo a.k.a. Ma Produsah , the singer and founder of the group Hermakuti (Dub Roots Reggae) in which Carmen was a backing vocalist. The two founded United Flavour (www.unitedflavour.com ), which has released four albums: Unity, Attitude, Here To Stay and Música Con Conciencia, and a vinyl with dub versions of some of their songs (http://www.unitedforces.cz/cs/catalog.php?d= ).

DubFX ft. Mr. Woodnote
Few artists embody the term "one-man show" better than Benjamin Stanford, aka Dub FX. For those unfamiliar with his work, Dub FX is a street performer, recording artist and producer famous for creating intricate and impressive tracks entirely on his own. Using various vocal methods and recording them into devices used for looping and effecting sound, Dub FX can manipulate his voice in incredible ways, creating a layered soundscape in front of the audience.
In 2006, as social media was on the rise, Dub FX packed his bags, jumped on a plane and left Melbourne to fulfil his dream of travelling Europe. For Dub FX, his musical talent and street performing were only ever intended as a means of income to fund the adventure. The universe, however, had other plans.
"I wanted to see as much of the world as possible and get inspired to write an authentic body of music. I could then use that music to shop for a record deal, but I didn't imagine my career could take off while on the trip." – DUB FX.
Dub FX realised early on that his unique process impressed people passing by on the street. While most artists struggle to attain slick production finishes in a studio, Dub FX was building and layering exceptional musical tracks live and instantaneously. When people stopped to listen, Dub FX delivered meaningful, conscious messages in his singing and rhymes. He captivated his audience emotionally and impressed them with his technical ability. These emotive & dynamic street performances enticed crowds to buy his CD instantly.
Two years later, Filmmaker Ben Dowden, aka 'BD', discovered Dub FX busking in the streets of Bristol. BD offered to film Dub FX's performance and later uploaded the now 30-plus million-view videos 'Love Someone' and 'Flow' to YouTube. Immediately after, promoters started contacting Dub FX from all over the world, elevating him from a street artist to a club and festival act.
"I went from living in a van and driving to every show while street performing along the way to getting flown business class to some of the biggest festivals in the world." – DUB FX
Over the last thirteen years, Dub FX has released six records, sold over 250,000 albums, headlined major festivals, racked up over 300 million collective YouTube views, and built an imposing social media presence without ever being played on commercial radio or TV.
The latest album, ‘Infinite Reflection,’ was anything but conventional. Over the span of nine consecutive weeks, a new track from the album was unleashed every Friday with its own video, treating each song as a standalone single and building anticipation with each successive release. The opening track, "Cracks in the Mirror," sets the stage with a powerful yet approachable sound. It reflects on societal issues without sacrificing a groove that fits into any playlist. The album continues to make a statement with "No More," featuring Steppa Style and Nappy Paco, which delivers a bold anti-war message. Living Inside maintains a laid-back vibe while introducing a lighter tone to the album, featuring vocals from the artist FRASE.
Dub FX's collaboration with his wife, Sahida Apsara, on "Woman Rising" brings a powerful and empowering narrative against misogyny and violence toward women. This standout track is a call to action wrapped in a confident and striking musical package. Meanwhile, "Floating" captures the euphoria of new love, bringing a sense of lightness and joy. "Dig This" keeps the energy high, leading into the more experimental territory of "Falling," where unexpected sounds push the boundaries of the album's direction."Supernova Jam" is a prime example of Dub FX's signature live-looping and smooth rhyming, reminiscent of 90s hip-hop. It seamlessly paves the way for the closing title track, "Infinite Reflection," a high-energy finale that leaves a lasting impression.
The album features collaborations with an array of talented artists, including Steppa Style, Nappy Paco, Paolo Baldini DubFiles, Frase, Sahida Apsara, Mista Savona, Mr Woodnote, and KILAFAUX, each adding their unique touch to the record.
The album is available now on all major streaming platforms.
