Meirelles, mundo livre S/A, Hurtmold e Thaíde & Dj Hum, e internacional: a entidade Afrika Bambaataa, o grupo nova-iorquino Wax Poetics, o Dj J-Period do Zion I e Rahzel, o beatboxer do The Roots. Hoje o combo se completa com Professor M.Stereo no comando das batidas/efeitos + Dj PG nos scratches, e leva adiante a divulgação do seu mais recente lançamento, Velha Guarda 22.
