NO SIR E is the Delaware-based producer, performing artist, monome magician, and forward-thinking future beat electronic musician making waves from east to west coast with his ambitious approach to music production. A self-proclaimed “sound scavenger” and “loop technician,” his live performances are a full-course buffet into a range of emotion and rhythm. Using a monome 256 and other futuristic gadgetry he transforms into a mad scientist performing beat-based alchemy. Samples and original material undergo smooth metamorphosis on the fly with sophistication. Influences range from Baroque-compositions to J-Pop to Metalcore. Since 2004, NO SIR E has been using his exceptionally keen ear to produce and select rare sounds to compose into eclectic compositions. Having performed among the likes of DJ Jazzy Jeff, Lil B, A$AP Mob, Tinashe, Daedelus, and many others, he is showing no signs of slowing down soon and is currently accepting touring dates while working on a full-length album.
Mike Holmes, aka Nostalgianoid, is a black queer multidisciplinary artist from Asheville, NC. Music has been a passion for them for as long as they can remember, and for more than half of their life, have played in various projects ranging across genres along with creating their own music through different mediums. Improvisation and spontaneity has been a cornerstone for Mike since day one, and they merge that with a sonic search for channeling emotion, approaching their art cathartically.
