Cocojoey, Anne Helen Wells, Oux

Cocojoey is a Chicago-based producer and performer who operates within a unique blend of digital hardcore and digital fusion genres. Their 2022 album “COCOJOEY’S WORLD” features kaleidoscopic harmony, virtuosic keyboard shredding, and densely orchestrated electronic layers wielded in the pursuit of finding joy and self-acceptance.

Known for highly energetic performances, Cocojoey has quickly become a local mainstay. In addition to 50 shows across the US in 2024, they have recently performed alongside artists such as HEALTH, Author&Punisher, Bubblegum Octopus, Lauren Bousfield, Bejalvin, and Fraxiom.

Anne Helen Wells makes digital pop music in a desperate attempt to be known, to be loved & to get off. Her debut album ‘AHW’ is replete with intricate arrangements of metallic, plasticky sounds, the perfect electronic framework for her lyrical explorations of BDSM, love & transsexuality.

"oux “/ɒ/” is an alt-pop band from chicago. while you could call their music “experimental pop", that hardly does justice to the profusion of genres and ideas they weave into their songs. oux’s debut full-length, "necronym" balances prickly idiosyncrasies with sleek earworms, and unraveling its layers is part of the fun.
