BLACK TAFFY
Jones is a composer and performer whose current focus lies in pairing ambient music with big bass and percussion. Sometimes performing with only vibraphone and cassette decks, he frequently employs the use of tape loops and other antiquated mediums to create pillowy worlds of wow and flutter.

Cleme
As CLEME, visual artist Ian Walker Stewart, (founder of BIGMENTION) creates moody, textured, heady, sometimes ambient songs in the key of hip hop, but not married to any genre. Geographically in the Midwest, after having spent time on both coasts , the influences of all things come together. A thoughtful fusion of abstract beats, visuals, and sonic textures that blurs the line of music and art in a powerfully coherent aesthetic. Visit: bigmention.com/cleme

Unwound (Jim Branstetter)
Sound collage with warped tape, effects, and live manipulation
Jim is the host of Run With Scissors and has a meriad of live music performance projects

Top Ten Records' mission is to develop and sustain a piece of Oak Cliff history as a resource for media literacy and cultural study, while preserving, restoring, and making available to the public an archive of music and film through the retail shop, the library project, the Texas Music Archive project, and small cultural events like concerts, film screenings, workshops, and classes. www.toptenrecords.org
