Participating Artists:

MNTXX (pronounced "mo-no-tax") is the duo of college mates and alter egos, Momo and Takz. When Momo met Gee-Bee and Takz met Kay-Ess, they all went on a quadruple date with Andy Warhol, scored some A to Z's with Sid Vicious and jammed with Malcom McLaren till the cows got lost on their ways home.

Erick Calilan is a Cavite-based sound artist, a multi-instrumentalist and an interdisciplinary artist working with D.I.Y. (Do-It-Yourself) technology related to sounds. Often performs under the name UGONG, a sound art outfit utilizing home-made circuit-bent sound devices created from toy keyboards, walkie-talkie and other low voltage electronic devices, he has collaborated with numbers of sound artists, media-art practitioner, musicians and performance artists in the Philippines. He spearheads the sound art collective, Experimentation in Sound Art Tradition (E.X.I.S.T.), and recently curated the festival called Active | De-Active: An Inventive Music Festival 2010, an international music festival focused on improvised music, which toured three Philippine cities – Cavite, Manila and Davao.

DISTINGUISHED OVER-RATED RADICAL KIDS is a solo project by Eric Diolola, for this edition of ReSound he will be collaborating with a local Hip-hop artist.
