*Juno Reactor* is a musical and performing act known for the
cinematic fusion of electronic, orchestral and global music, the
Matrix score and other film works. Central to the project is Ben
Watkins, and his collaborations with a constantly changing
ensemble of musicians from across the world, including
percussionist Mabi Thobejane from South Africa along with
countrymen Amampondo, Eduardo Niebla, Steve Stevens, Greg Ellis,
Taz Alexander, Ghetto Priest, Sugizo and recently Yasmin Levy.
Originally Juno Reactor was formed as an art project in 1990; Ben
Watkins wanted to collaborate with other artists to produce and
be involved in exciting projects that were not commercially
driven. He wanted to create experimental music/non musical
soundtracks that would work with installations, art pieces and
film projects.

*Future Rock* is electronic sensory overload. The trio has
steadily been touring the US, electrifying audiences and
developing a dedicated following during their journey. Their
legendary late night performances at festivals and after-parties
have quickly confirmed their status at the top of the live
electronic scene. Coupled with an explosive light show, FR
certifies an unparalleled multi-sense experience. The
Chicago-based trio exhibits an uncommon grasp of minimalist, yet
visceral, rock. Skillfully manipulating live loops, synthesizers,
filters and an electronic drum kit, the trio succeeds in creating
a larger-than-life sound that sends crowds into frenzies.
