CUF is a collective of young creative music producers, DJs, and visual artists, formed in December 2010. Their aim is to promote digital culture through producing music, making visual and multimedia art, and organising live events for further exploitation of their multimedia production. CUF is also a platform for young creative people with ideas, which inquire technical skills or production support, in the field of DJ-ing, VJ-ing, electronic music production, creating interactive applications or installations, and designing motion graphics and films.

For now, CUF's primarily goal is exploring electronic music on the fringe of IDM, dubstep, future garage, glitch, hip-hop, trap, juke, footwork, and future bass.


Members

CUF is a growing collective and now consists of 9 members, with Some1Else being the most prominent of them. As a highly recognisable electronic producer of the younger Slovene generation, he was one on the first to introduced the Clip Chop genre to the world. Clip Chop is a performance style, where media (music and video) is chopped into fragments or clips and then replayed in a new diverse composition. Other active members of CUF are also Bartillier, Loutseau, DVS, and Mitac, who participate as DJs and producers, and Vjboc, who provides the visual support for CUF events.

Events

In 2010 the collective started to organise periodic electronic parties in MC Velenje, later on they became regular guests appearing on DubLab, a series of weekly events held in Klub Channel Zero. Since 2012 they organise regular shows and special events in F Club, Klub K4, and Channel Zero. CUF also contributes a special series of happenings called CUF EXPERIMENT, within which the technological limitations and their artistic expressions collide. The first one took place in Velenje in August 2011 as a part of Kunigunda Festival, when they performed a live electronic show with video mapping on the façade of the House of Culture in Velenje. CUF EXPERIMENT 002: Hyper-acoustic piano took place in Klub Menza pri koritu as a part of the 9th edition of Animateka International Animated Film Festival in 2012.

As individual artists the CUF members have performed alongside renowned world electronic artists such as Venetian Snares, Dälek, XXXY, Lil Silva, and at the festival Ars Electronica in Linz (AT).

Over the years CUF organised more than 400 events with over 80,000 visitors.
