Deuandra - Blending Fashion, Film, and Faith on the Virtual Sessions 10/8/25

Wed, 08 Oct 2025 20:30:00 +0000

From Scottsdale, Arizona, Deuandra joins to share her journey as a multifaceted artist balancing music, fashion, and film. With twelve albums under her belt, her latest release Fit marks a new creative direction, blending spoken word, rap, and pop influences. The project is deeply personal, inspired by her late mother—a fashion designer—and the rediscovery of her passion for design. Through Fit, she channels emotion, healing, and truth, crafting stories that speak to growth, loss, and resilience. Her creativity extends beyond music into film. Her sci-fi fantasy feature Tout Fugé—shot across multiple countries with local talent—has already earned international recognition, winning awards in Hong Kong and India. Currently streaming on her Roku channel D’Teron TV, the film showcases her commitment to independent storytelling and global collaboration. Between fashion shows in New York, Paris, and Dubai, Deuandra continues to merge artistry and entrepreneurship, building her brand Detron Couture while uplifting others through her work. A true “predator” in the creative sense—producer, director, and editor—she thrives on crafting her own path. Whether in music, fashion, or film, Deuandra finds her grounding through faith and perseverance. She embraces challenges with gratitude, reminding others to stay authentic despite criticism or setbacks. Her story is a testament to creativity, balance, and the power of faith-driven determination.

Today, Relentless Beats produces more than 500 events annually, from intimate club nights to massive festivals across multiple states. He describes his early motivations as driven not by profit but by a desire to fill a cultural void in Arizona’s nightlife. Over time, this vision expanded nationally through strategic partnerships, including East Meets West in New York. Thomas explains the evolution of major festivals such as Decadence, Gold Rush, and Phoenix Lights, highlighting the creative process behind curating each lineup and venue experience. For him, every event serves as a reflection of the community, emphasizing both artistic diversity and fan connection. The discussion also delves into the modern realities of event culture, from managing safety operations to addressing cell phone use at shows. Thomas offers insight into Relentless Rangers, a fan-first initiative that ensures guests’ well-being at every festival. He also shares thoughts on “proper house” and his passion for maintaining authenticity in an increasingly commercialized scene. Despite overseeing hundreds of productions a year, Thomas remains grounded in creativity and collaboration. His message to fans is simple: join the movement, celebrate responsibly, and help shape the next era of dance music culture.

ASTOR - Balancing Finance and Progressive House Dreams on the Virtual Sessions

Thu, 25 Sep 2025 20:30:00 +0000

Summary Liam McNamara, known as ASTOR, brings a unique story of blending a full-time finance career with an emerging path as a DJ and producer. Based in New York City, he describes how his love for progressive house grew from festival experiences and artists like Avicii, Calvin Harris, and the Chainsmokers. For ASTOR, music follows cycles, and he believes the melodic, euphoric energy of progressive house is ready for a resurgence in the global scene. Originally pursuing music as a hobby after completing his CFA exams, ASTOR quickly evolved from curiosity to club performances. His breakthrough came when he was offered the chance to open for Julian Jordan, followed by opportunities to share the stage with Hardwell and Nicky Romero. These early shows fueled his commitment to production, supported by mentorship from Mikey Ferrari, who guided him from the basics of Ableton to creating professional tracks. With releases like Storm, Holding Tight, and most recently Stars, ASTOR has demonstrated consistency in hitting his yearly release goals. He explains how regimented schedules, daily practice, and goal setting allow him to balance demanding work with music creation. His success on Revealed Radar with Holding Tight marked a major milestone, proving that persistence pays off even while self-releasing. ASTOR also shares his experience at Afrojack’s Wall Pro Academy writer’s camp during Tomorrowland, calling it an inspiring and transformative moment that pushed him further. Looking forward, he aims for bigger festival stages while staying grounded with small club sets, always focused on connecting emotionally with his audience through melody and energy.

Andrea Grasselli (ATCG) - From Persistence to Global Tech House Recognition on the Virtual Sessions 9/25/25

Thu, 25 Sep 2025 17:00:00 +0000

Summary Andrea Grasselli, better known as ATCG, joins from Milan to share how persistence and passion have shaped his career in electronic music. Starting with his unique artist name, derived from being born in 1989 at the close of the 80s, he emphasizes how identity plays a role in connecting with audiences. His path has been fueled by determination, from sending over a thousand demos to Patrick Topping before finally earning a release on Trick, to reimagining Tujamo’s hit Who into an Afro Latin remix that gained official recognition. Andrea reflects on the realities of production, often creating hundreds of demos but selecting only a fraction for release. He highlights the importance of management teams like Origami, who have helped him align with the right labels at the right moments. His cover of Rihanna’s Don’t Stop the Music stands as a career milestone, reaching number one on BeatForce after initially being intended only as a VIP remix. Balancing music with personal passions, Andrea speaks about late-night production sessions, staying grounded with football and motorcycling, and overcoming creative blocks by exploring other genres. He shares candid stories of hearing his music unexpectedly in restaurants, managing the highs and lows of festival performances, and decompressing from the adrenaline of live shows. Andrea’s advice for upcoming artists is simple yet powerful: consistency outweighs raw talent. With residencies across Milan, Bergamo, and Cremona, and upcoming performances at ADE, he continues to carve out his place in the global tech house community while keeping his creative roots and Italian pride at the center of his journey.

Nikki Camilleri - Building Artist Success Through Strategy and Super Fans on the Virtual Sessions 9/24/25

Wed, 24 Sep 2025 17:00:00 +0000

Summary Nikki Camilleri joins from London to share her inspiring journey in the music industry, from her early beginnings in Malta to making her mark as a Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree. Raised with a love for art but limited opportunities in creative industries, Nikki discovered her passion through the Young Enterprise competition, which propelled her to the UK and into a career that combined business acumen with music. Her story highlights the power of persistence, internships, and hands-on learning, which ultimately led her to roles at Warner Records and eventually to founding her own venture, Mana.

Nikki emphasizes that artists today cannot work alone – building a team and understanding business fundamentals are essential to longevity. She advocates for careful planning while remaining adaptable, likening an artist’s career to a constantly evolving startup. A key part of Nikki’s philosophy revolves around the concept of super fans. She contrasts them with passive listeners, showing how dedicated supporters drive revenue through tickets, merch, and direct engagement. By focusing on relationship-building and capturing fan data, artists can create sustainability beyond fleeting social media trends. Nikki also touches on the importance of PR, distribution, and brand positioning as interconnected building blocks for artist growth.

Jvst Breathe - From Software Engineering to Musical Expression on the Virtual Sessions 9/23/25

Tue, 23 Sep 2025 20:30:00 +0000

Summary Tavian, better known as Jvst Breathe, shares his journey from classical training and computer science into electronic music, revealing how his analytical background fuels creativity. Growing up playing trombone, trumpet, violin, and guitar, music always came naturally, though he paused during high school and college to focus on sports and studies. After graduating in computer science, he faced a crossroads between climbing the corporate ladder or pursuing passion. Choosing music, he discovered production as both a challenge and an outlet for self-expression. He reflects on early struggles and breakthroughs, explaining how turbulent life experiences and relationships drove him to create. Music became a necessity, a way to translate emotion into sound. His artistic name Jvst Breathe symbolizes mindfulness, spirituality, and a reminder to pause amid chaos. Inspiration comes from adventures, emotions, and the energy of dance floors, with festivals and raves shaping his understanding of how sound can connect and move people. Production-wise, Tavian primarily uses Ableton Live and Serum, focusing on software-based sound design while learning to reintroduce analog instruments. He openly discusses overcoming creative blocks by taking breaks or diving into new learning, a process that mirrors his engineering mindset. Influences range from Taiki Nulight to Eminem, with admiration for local peers like Joosh who inspire him through performance and creativity. Looking ahead, Tavian teases new originals, remixes, and live mixes, including a Lil Wayne remix and exclusive sets recorded at beach events. With a focus on authenticity, growth, and community, Jvst Breathe is carving a unique path that blends technical skill, emotional honesty, and a vision for innovation in dance music.

Long before club nights and late studio sessions, they spoke in melodies, cutting their teeth on classic instruments like trombone, trumpet, and violin. That early discipline trained an ear for tone, harmony, and dynamics, a foundation that does not just teach notes but patience, listening, and intention. Hours of scales, ensemble rehearsals, and tiny breakthroughs built a quiet confidence that would later resurface on stage and in the studio. In high school and college, practical choices edged out creative ones, and Jvst Breathe stepped away from music to pursue computer science. The problem solving rush and elegance of a well written function became a new canvas. Debuggers replaced practice rooms; compilers replaced metronomes. Yet the logic of music never let go. Pattern, repetition, and variation still mapped neatly onto how they thought. The spark reignited in 2022, when they realized that modern music production is not far from programming at all. It is systems thinking with sound, architecture expressed as arrangement, and algorithms disguised as grooves. Once that connection clicked, tools that used to feel opaque suddenly became expressive. Early 2023 brought a new obsession, DJing. What began as curiosity quickly became a craft, then a calling. Mixing gave structure to the producer’s imagination and an instant feedback loop with the people in the room. Every blend taught a lesson in energy, pacing, and restraint, and every set sharpened instincts that software could only hint at. By October 2023, after months of relentless practice and tiny victories, Jvst Breathe played a first show in San Francisco. That milestone transformed private study into public promise, and friends into early supporters willing to stay until the lights came up. It also confirmed a simple truth: connection arrives when preparation meets presence, and the room always rewards honesty over perfection, every single time. Six months later, that promise demanded a leap. Jvst Breathe moved to Los Angeles to pursue music in earnest, stepping into a city where dreams feel close and rent feels closer. They arrived with little more than a laptop, a hard drive, and stubborn belief, taking on ninety hour weeks as an independent contractor to keep the lights on while chasing a sound of their own. Mornings belonged to code, nights to clubs, and weekends to workflow experiments, crate digging, and set prep. The grind was brutal and clarifying. It tested resolve, sharpened workflows, and proved that momentum lives in daily discipline before it ever shows up as a breakthrough. Today, Jvst Breathe works as a software engineer at a social media marketing company, translating day job tools directly into the artist’s toolkit. Content is not an afterthought; it is part of the instrument rack. They approach branding like a product roadmap, storytelling like a sprint, and audience building like user research. Short form edits, posting cadence, analytics, and automation all feed the creative engine, helping the music find ears without losing its heart. The aim is to bridge product thinking with artistic intuition so releases and performances feel intentional, iterative, and alive. The sound emerging from this hybrid life carries the fingerprints of both disciplines. You can hear the brass section schooling in the way basslines breathe and lead converse. You can feel the coder’s patience in the architecture of builds and releases. Sets move with logic but never feel predictable, coursing through house and adjacent club textures with an emphasis on groove, momentum, and emotional release. In the studio, Jvst Breathe favors tactile experimentation, resampling, modulation, and iterative versioning that treats each session like a small product ship. The result is music that aims for clarity and lift, built to move a floor and linger afterward. Community matters, too. The Bay Area debut created a circle of friends who still trade stems and ideas, while Los Angeles provides a high pressure, high inspiration environment that keeps the bar rising. Each room teaches something new, how to open gently, how to reset a dance floor, how to end with gratitude. Those lessons flow back into production and back out into sets, where narrative, tension, and relief become the language of connection. The name is a reminder to slow down, breathe, and serve the moment instead of the ego. Looking ahead, Jvst Breathe is building deliberately, song by song, set by set, and system by system, knowing that longevity comes from process as much as from inspiration. The mission is simple and ambitious at once, to make records that feel inevitable and performances that feel personal, rooted in craft and delivered with care. Nothing is rushed; everything is iterated, tested with people, and refined until the intention is clear and the feeling is undeniable. Follow along as the story accelerates. For studio snippets, show announcements, and works in progress, find Jvst Breathe at @jvstbreathemusic on Instagram and TikTok, where the content brain meets the crate digging heart. Step into a world where signal flow meets feeling, where code becomes cadence, and where every night is an invitation to just breathe.

Finding Creativity Through Structure with Textbook Maneuver on the Virtual Sessions 9/18/25

Thu, 18 Sep 2025 20:30:00 +0000

Michael, better known as Textbook Maneuver, joins for an insightful conversation that explores how science, structure, and creativity intertwine in his musical journey. Growing up with a love for music but rooted in a professional career as a chemist, Michael shares how his analytical background influenced his approach to learning and producing. His artist name reflects this very methodical nature - diving into textbooks, experimenting, and developing a disciplined foundation before evolving into his current cinematic electronic sound. He discusses his early piano lessons and the pivotal role of receiving a piano as a gift, which shaped his lifelong connection to music. Michael reflects on balancing influences from classical composers like Satie and Ravel with the raw energy of metal, punk, and progressive rock, which all feed into his eclectic style today. His EP Strike Joy and full-length album Adrenaline Slip mark milestones that not only capture his evolving sound but also symbolize his mission to create music that inspires positivity and introspection. Throughout the interview, Michael highlights the challenges of standing out in a saturated digital landscape and the importance of trademarking and branding as an artist. He also shares his fascination with building unique sonic textures through software, synthesizers, and improvisation while acknowledging the perfectionist tendencies that sometimes slow creative flow. His vision for Life Science Records reflects his DIY ethic and a long-term goal to nurture other artists. Michael’s story is one of curiosity, persistence, and innovation - blending scientific discipline with artistic exploration to forge a unique identity in electronic music.

With nearly 130,000 streams across platforms to date, the project has steadily drawn the attention of the global IDM and experimental electronic community. Interviews with Magnetic Magazine, Illustrate Magazine, features on WWAM (We Write About Music), Music For All (Brazil), and Good Music Radar have already highlighted the project’s immersive debut album Adrenaline Slip (2025). It is clear that Textbook Maneuver is emerging as one of experimental electronic music’s most intriguing new figures. Michael Keane is the Bronx-born, New Jersey-based composer behind the Textbook Maneuver alias. A classically trained pianist with a punk DIY heart, Keane blends cerebral sound design with cinematic storytelling, drawing from a wide palette of influences that stretch from Genesis (Duke era), Rush, and Gary Numan to The Postal Service, U.N.K.L.E., and Phantogram. Under the Textbook Maneuver moniker, his releases balance the intellectual curiosity of IDM with the emotional resonance of ambient and prog-influenced electronica, offering soundscapes fit for film, television, and interactive media. His music thrives on improvisation and sonic experimentation, refusing easy classification while remaining deeply accessible. With critics comparing his sound to Jon Hopkins and Nils Frahm, listeners are sure to hear echoes of Boards of Canada, μ-Ziq, and Squarepusher. ‘Nocturnal Musings’ is an off-kilter glitched-out dreamscape, unfolding with restless beats that shape-shift beneath jagged synth stabs, blinking beeps, and spectral textures, evoking the drift of a mind caught between realities. The accompanying video, all caught on a trail camera set up outside the artist’s studio, shows eerie black and white footage of animals meandering in the snow in the dead of night. Textbook Maneuver shared: “I spent much of my time composing for the Strike Joy EP in a fully screened porch at night, during the height of cricket and frog activity, focusing on loops and sound design. Elements of the rhythms and tones from nature helped inspire ‘Nocturnal Musings’. The video for the song is from footage I captured on the trail camera set up outside the studio, sticking with the night hours synced up with the song. It was a fun creative experience." “A spaced-out odyssey of an album, leaning heavily into the ambient & leftfield side of electronic music.” Magnetic Magazine “Textbook Maneuver creates music that takes listeners on an atmospheric journey.” Illustrate Magazine “No words required here. It’s all emotive sound, frequencies, and there’s plenty of it to entertain, energize, and even hypnotize.” Good Music Radar Bandcamp: https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Ftextbookmaneuver.bandcamp.com&user_uuid=4c2b2c86-3956-4a9d-977c-78e986d23990&stage=1&hmac=eae4cc73c18d08e45025ca0e7fe48d8b655c93fdcc7a7b87be83749e49ff8ff2TikTok https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.tiktok.com%2F%40lifesciencerecords&user_uuid=4c2b2c86-3956-4a9d-977c-78e986d23990&stage=1&hmac=c96b8f392718b3a25c2c85a4bcd6f240ce183846d8e6aa6d2273045c18cf3346 Label: Life Science Records https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Flifesciencerecords1.bandcamp.com%2F&user_uuid=4c2b2c86-3956-4a9d-977c-78e986d23990&stage=1&hmac=412eb482681f1840ed107a57e25ff94ef28afcf9c01b5b7a658efb21d133ca2dSpotify https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fopen.spotify.com%2Fartist%2F5f9O1kS96ShpCQiXqoWLDS&user_uuid=4c2b2c86-3956-4a9d-977c-78e986d23990&stage=1&hmac=e6438764f6e91bfe87dee2e22aa83a9399a7520db63eebf2a3ceec2b5d52abf5 ITunesApple https://calendly.com/url?q=https%3A%2F%2Fmusic.apple.com%2Fartist%2F1787480924&user_uuid=4c2b2c86-3956-4a9d-977c-78e986d23990&stage=1&hmac=f6cbae667318a8f2bd2c8ec725a73498f35fcbf2ed84aabcabeaa7ad3f962b80 About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Erika Grapes - Healing Through Music, Covers, and Creative Resilience on the Virtual Sessions 9/16/25

Tue, 16 Sep 2025 20:30:00 +0000

Summary In this Virtual Sessions episode, Milan-based singer and songwriter Erika Grapes opens up about her artistic journey, the meaning behind her stage name, and the evolution of her music. She explains how “Grapes” began as a playful nickname on music forums and eventually became her professional identity, representing the colorful and eclectic nature of her artistry. Her latest single, a cover of Love is a Bitch by Two Feet, reflects both personal heartbreak and artistic transformation. Originally drawn to its sensual and bluesy vibe, Erika reimagined the track with an industrial edge inspired by Nine Inch Nails, blending cabaret-style rhythms with electronic textures. She recalls how recording the vocals became a cathartic release, channeling raw emotion into a bold new interpretation. The conversation turns deeply personal as Erika shares the trauma that once drove her away from live performance and the healing process that helped her return to the stage. Collaborating with producer Eugene gave her the confidence to perform again, and she highlights the role of therapy, poetry, and self-expression in overcoming fear. Her lyric visualizer for Love is a Bitch emerged from improvised photography in an abandoned mill, showing her resourcefulness and creative vision. Looking ahead, Erika teases upcoming projects including a dream pop original with producer Veronica Hall and a cover of Choking Outlines by Ren. She emphasizes the importance of authenticity, embracing eclecticism across genres, and letting inspiration arrive naturally rather than forcing it. With influences ranging from Fiona Apple to Nick Cave, Erika continues to craft music that balances vulnerability, experimentation, and resilience.

About Erika Grapes - Erika Grapes (Erika Conti) is an Italian-Hungarian singer-songwriter whose work blends dream pop, electro-pop, and alternative pop. Born in Lovere, on Lake Iseo, and raised near Milan, she began her musical path performing in London with the band Bungalow Purple before moving into solo projects that explore a more cinematic and introspective sound. Her music often merges nostalgic textures with modern electronic elements, shaped by influences ranging from Billie Holiday and Nina Simone to The Cure, Fiona Apple, and Lana Del Rey. Known for her ethereal voice and atmospheric arrangements, she has released both original tracks and distinctive reinterpretations of cult songs, including Mazzy Star’s “Into Dust”, Nick Cave’s “Red Right Hand”, and The Doors’ “People Are Strange.” In 2024, her single “Once Upon an Ordinary” — co-written with Felix Subway and produced by Lorenzo Montanà — passed the first round of consideration at the Grammy Awards in the Best Alternative Performance category. Later that year, she released “Take My Heaven,” a new wave-inspired collaboration with Vincenzo of Way To Blue. Her most recent project is a collaboration with electronic music artist Eugene (Eugenio Valente) on the single “Love is a Bitch” (2025), a reinterpretation of the Two Feet track accompanied by a lyric visualizer. The project highlights her continued interest in cross-genre collaborations and her exploration of darker, emotionally charged themes. Active on platforms such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and Instagram, Erika describes her sound as “Indie Chill Dark Dream Pop with dashes of Fierce and Fatale.” Her work reflects recurring themes of vulnerability, resilience, and transformation, situating her among the emerging voices of the European indie and alternative scene.

Sergio Matina - Fifty Years of DJ Culture, Radio Legacy, and Artistic Passion on the Virtual Sessions 9/11/25

Thu, 11 Sep 2025 18:00:00 +0000

Summary In this Virtual Sessions episode, Sergio Matina joins from Milan to share his remarkable journey as a DJ, producer, and radio pioneer. For Sergio, being behind the decks is more than entertainment—it is art. He describes mixing as painting, with tracks as his colors and the crowd as his canvas. His long career has taken him from Italy’s top clubs to radio shows syndicated in 30 countries, including his celebrated format TendenziA Sessions. Reflecting on his beginnings, Sergio recalls buying his first records in the mid-1980s and the life-changing night in Florence when he first encountered house music through Nicky Siano. Determined to understand this new sound, he searched record shops until he built his collection and became one of the earliest house DJs in Italy. His passion for intimate clubs remains, where the energy exchange between DJ and audience defines the experience, contrasting with the spectacle of festivals. A passionate critic of phone use in clubs, Sergio shares stories of stopping his sets to demand people put their devices away and focus on dancing. For him, the dance floor is sacred—a hedonistic, tribal, and spiritual space that should be lived, not filmed. He sees clubs as vital cultural spaces where music unites people beyond wealth or status. Sergio also discusses his label TendenziA Records and his new project UTROM, blending house with jazz, soul, and slower BPMs. He emphasizes that promotion, marketing, and gigs remain the lifeblood of a DJ’s career, offering guidance to young producers: humility, passion, and self-awareness. Outside music, he prioritizes health, meditation, and connecting with local cultures when touring, always seeking authenticity in food and community.

Thaylo: Crafting a Path from Party DJ to Rising Producer on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/26/25

Tue, 26 Aug 2025 18:00:00 +0000

Thaylo: Crafting a Path from Party DJ to Rising Producer on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/26/25 In this inspiring Virtual Session, Darran Bruce connects with Lyon-based DJ and producer Thaylo to explore his evolution from casual party DJ to rising electronic artist with a distinctive voice.

He also discusses balancing authenticity with the realities of building a career, including working side jobs, securing label support, and learning to manage touring schedules. A major milestone is his forthcoming EP Drawn In Your Eyes, which marks his transition into incorporating his own vocals on four tracks. He reflects on the challenges of live performance, his biggest gigs supporting acts like Revo and Korolova, and the importance of staying true to himself both on and off stage. From frustrations with phone-dominated crowds to dreams of hosting his own event with fireworks and unique stage concepts, Thaylo offers both honesty and optimism.

Redman: Cannabis Advocacy, Unity, and Music Legacy on the Mobile Sessions 8/16/25

Sat, 16 Aug 2025 23:00:00 +0000

In this dynamic Virtual Session of The DJ Sessions, host Darran Bruce sits down with iconic rapper, entrepreneur, and cannabis advocate Redman at Cantana Fest 2025. Known worldwide for his groundbreaking contributions to hip hop, Redman dives into an equally impactful mission—fighting for cannabis reform through the United Empowerment Party (UEP), the first federally approved cannabis political party. Redman discusses the importance of unity within the cannabis industry, emphasizing that collaboration and shared goals are the key to real progress. He outlines UEP’s mission to de-schedule cannabis, arguing that simply moving it to Schedule III is insufficient. By fully removing it from federal scheduling, opportunities would open for research, transportation, fair business practices, and most importantly, freeing incarcerated individuals still serving time for cannabis-related charges. The conversation touches on the role of misinformation and outdated perceptions, with Redman highlighting cannabis as a medicine with over 400 beneficial components—many yet to be discovered. He shares his belief that education is crucial for lawmakers and the public alike, while stressing the need to keep large corporations from monopolizing the industry once federal approval arrives. Beyond advocacy, Redman reflects on community, culture, and the power of numbers in creating systemic change. He encourages grassroots participation, inviting supporters to join UEP’s movement and get involved in shaping policies that work for the people, not just profit. The episode also highlights Redman’s creative pursuits, including his new album Muddy Waters Too and ventures in merchandise and fashion, reinforcing his influence as both a cultural icon and social leader. About Redman - Gruff and animated with bare-knuckled punchlines no matter how blunted, Redman is one of the most distinctive voices in hip-hop, representing Newark and flying the funk flag throughout an enduring career that boasts seven gold and platinum albums. Reggie Noble was featured on a pair of EPMD tracks before broke through on his own in 1992 with Whut? Thee Album, a highly anticipated solo debut containing "Blow Your Mind" and "Time 4 Sum Aksion," boisterous singles that topped Billboard's rap chart. The unsettling Dare Iz a Darkside, relatively lucid Muddy Waters, and platinum triumph Doc's da Name 2000 all reinforced the rapper/producer's high standing, as did El Niño and Blackout! -- recorded respectively with Def Squad and Method Man -- throughout the '90s. Redman was even more visible during the early 2000s, hitting the upper reaches of the Billboard 200 again with Malpractice, taking his partnership with Method Man to the big screen with How High, and earning Grammy nominations as a featured artist on De La Soul's "Oooh." and Christina Aguilera's "Dirrty." Red launched his Gilla House label in 2007 with Red Gone Wild: Thee Album, and has followed it with three more LPs, including the alternately stern and celebratory Muddy Waters Too (2024). Redman, born Reginald Noble in Newark, started spinning records at parties and fashion shows at the age of 12, and a few years later began rhyming. He befriended , who became a mentor and took him along to parks and clubs, enabling him to develop and sharpen his skills as an imposing battle rapper. Later urged by to share the mike onstage at an EPMD concert in Newark, Noble -- who was then DJ'ing for -- gave in and essentially became Redman that night, shocking a crowd of familiar faces. Months later, a day after his father kicked him out for selling weed, Redman moved into 's Long Island apartment. He became fully embedded with EPMD and therefore the larger collective, touring with the group whose pioneering funky and relaxed sound had inspired him to fully pursue hip-hop. and Bobbito had showcased a live recording of Redman on their WKCR radio show, but it was EPMD's third album, 1990's Business as Usual, where Redman made his commercial debut, featured on the tracks "Hardcore" and "Brothers on My Jock." A five-track solo demo resulted in a solo deal with Def Jam. Redman was at the forefront of a crop of young, brash, and hungry signees that included and , bolstering a roster of mostly established acts such as , , EPMD, and . In September 1992, Whut? Thee Album made instant impact as one of the era's most powerful rap debuts -- a mischievous, hard-hitting, set produced primarily by Redman and . First two singles "Blow Your Mind" and "Time 4 Some Aksion" both topped Billboard's rap chart (the latter unseated 's "Throw Ya Gunz") and pushed the album, marketed heavily to the streets and college campuses, to gold status within nine months. Meanwhile, Redman was highly sought for guest verses, production, and turntable work, assisting EPMD ("Head Banger"), , , and , as well as fellow Def Squad members and , among others. Red returned in November 1994 with the descriptively-titled Dare Iz a Darkside, what began a streak of four number one rap albums -- all of which also placed no lower than 13 on the Billboard 200. Assisted by and , Redman handled most of the sludgy production on his own, and a couple major singles in "Rockafella" and "Can't Wait," respective number ten and 11 hits on the rap chart, boosted album sales. Between those two singles, Red also hit number 12 with "Funkorama," taken from 's Insomnia compilation. Redman crowned the rap album chart four more times in the '90s. Muddy Waters, issued in December 1996, was leaner and sharper edged compared to Dare Iz a Darkside. It spawned "It's Like That (My Big Brother)," a number 11 rap hit featuring partner , and "Whatever Man," an -assisted track that peaked at number three on the rap chart and narrowly missed the pop Top 40. The more colorful and buoyant Doc's da Name 2000, highlighted by "I'll Bee Dat!" and the collaboration "Da Goodness," landed in November 1998 and within four months went platinum. The latter became Redman's fourth Top Ten rap hit as a headliner. Earlier the same year, Def Squad issued their lone album, El Niño, and almost topped the Billboard 200 with it. Red led the charge on album standout "Check N' Me Out" and traded verses with on "Rhymin' wit' Biz." Three months before the end of the decade, Redman and Method Man unloaded their first LP as a duo, the number three Billboard 200 entry Blackout!, full-length proof of the rappers' natural chemistry. In addition to "How High," a number two rap single originally recorded for the soundtrack of The Show, Blackout! contained the number 14 rap single "Da Rockwilder." Both songs also factored into How High, the 2001 stoner comedy in which Method Man and Redman co-starred. In addition to his first major big-screen role as an actor, Redman further raised his profile in the early 2000s with featured appearances on two Grammy-nominated recordings: De La Soul's "Oooh." (for Best Rap Performance by a Duo or Group) and Christina Aguilera's "Dirty" (for Best Pop Collaboration with Vocals). Between the two singles in May 2001, Redman released his fifth album, Malpractice, which entered the Billboard 200 at number four -- his highest position on the chart. The album's "Let's Get Dirty (I Can't Get in da Club)," with as hype man, returned him to the rap Top Ten, and other tracks boasted guest spots from the likes of , , and Treach. Six years passed before his next album, but Redman was busy during the interim with a handful of mixtapes on his new Gilla House label, roles in films like Scary Movie 3 and Seed of Chucky, player character roles in several Def Jam-related video games, plus the sitcom Method & Red, among many other television appearances. In March 2007, Redman finally issued Red Gone Wild: Thee Album. Despite arriving at least three years after its originally scheduled date, Red Gone Wild went straight to number 13 on the Billboard 200 (number four on the R&B/hip-hop chart). produced the rowdy highlight "Put It Down," and other notable productions were supplied by , , and longtime associates and . Blackout! 2 appeared near the end of the decade and found Redman and Method Man picking up where they had left off with their first album as a duo. The sequel entered the Billboard 200 at number seven and the R&B/hip-chart in the second position. December 2010 saw the release of Redman's last Def Jam album. Titled Redman Presents...Reggie, the LP capped an uncommonly long rapper-label affiliation of nearly two decades. It immediately stuck out in the Redman catalog with its outgoing, guest-heavy approach and use of Auto-Tune. Moreover, it played out like a mixtape with a different producer or production team on each track. Redman enlisted a similarly diverse cast of associates for Mudface, his independent, -distributed eighth album, issued in November 2015. Also like Reggie, it cracked the Top Ten of the rap chart. Film and television roles continued, most notably as the host of Scared Famous, followed by an appearance in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot and a recurring role on Power Book II: Ghost. Muddy Waters Too, the sequel to his 1996 album, and his first full-length in nine years, was issued on Christmas Eve 2024. The party atmosphere was exemplified by "Lite It Up," a nostalgic posse cut on which Redman was joined by , , , , and many more. ~ Andy Kellman, Rovi About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Herbert Holler on The Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/25/24

Tue, 25 Jun 2024 20:30:00 +0000

Herbert Holler on The Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/25/24 About Herbert Holler - Herbert Holler has been a party producer, promoter and DJ for over 25 years. He’s played at the most notable lounges, bars and dance clubs in NYC nightlife history, from Wall Street to 125th, from Brooklyn to the Bronx, not-to-mention guest spots across the globe, in cities like Tokyo, Venice and London. He works with a growing list of high-profile clients (Samsung, Porsche, Live Nation, Sony/ATV, etc.), event-production teams (Creative Edge Parties, Glow, Frost Audio, etc.) and world-renown artists (Benny Blanco, Boyz II Men, Diplo, John Legend, Miguel, Snoop Dogg, etc.), and continues to spin some of the most celebrated annual events in NYC (like the Brooklyn Black Tie Ball and Brooklyn Botanic Spring Gala). He’s also created the most legendary old-school dance party in history, the Freedom Party®, voted “Best Party” by Papermag, Village Voice and URB, now in its 21st year of parties with 1000+ events to date, My House™, his home for deep-house music, and Jams™, a new 2000s night! Past When I was little, I had problems sleeping. I wasn’t putting myself to bed ever, really. My parents tried everything in the book to get me out, but nothing worked. One night, my dad was at the bar doing his funny dance to Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger,” and I asked him to pick me up. Less than five minutes later, I was out. Every night thereafter, he slung me over his shoulder just before bedtime and danced me to sleep—to Queen, Styx, Chicago, Meatloaf and lots and lots of Electric Light Orchestra. ELO was our personal favorite. I ended up memorizing every word to every song off “Out of the Blue.” Anytime we were in his Honda Accord ’87, that 8-track went in. My mom had her input, too. Mostly Billy Joel, Tom Jones, maybe some Diana Ross. She tried singing me to sleep some nights, but “Why Do Fools Fall in Love” doesn’t really set the mood for deep slumber. She gave me my very first piece of vinyl—1966’s “The Best of the Beach Boys.” After the needle gave up trying to stick to that record, she handed me the soundtrack to “Hair.” When the day finally came for me to start learning the value of a dollar and buy my own music, the first tape I went out and purchased was Run DMC’s “Raising Hell.” How I got from 70s orchestral rock, surf ditties, and Broadway musicals to hip-hop, I’ll never know. But that diversity has stuck with me to this day. Just when I pledge allegiance to some new rap artist, I’m a bloodthirsty digger searching for a new, synthetic electronic sound I heard on satellite radio or on somebody’s blog. And then I’m back frantically Googling a soul or disco sample I recognized from an old tune, or putting the finishing touches on a Dubstep mix I took way too much time obsessing over, or re-organizing my playlists so I know the difference between bounce, trap and an old Dirty-South anthem. The question of how I ended up spending half my waking hours in a nightclub is easy: I practically grew up in one. Again, my father’s to blame. He used to be the Food & Beverage Manager at Resorts Casino Hotel in Atlantic City, NJ, my hometown. I clocked more hours at that place than some of the people on payroll. And this was the 80s, mind you, when the casino strip was as glamorous as it would ever be: fur coats, pearl necklaces, big Cadillacs and Liberace (who I saw live…many times). The lights, the sounds, the electricity in the air, even the smells…these things never left. Nor has my penchant for making people smile. In grade school I brought class clown to a new level. It cost me my grades, and also led to a few suspensions, but there was nothing I enjoyed more than leaving my classmates in stitches. Sometimes even the teacher had to take a second to regain composure. I thought maybe I’d make a good Psychologist, helping people smile, so I went Premed at NYU, till I realized the night before classes started that I’d have to sit still and study a lot. (Hence the B.A.) Naturally, I tried my hand at comedy, but I couldn’t afford to be broke, and I was already getting gigs and discovering my knack for making dance floors pop. So, it was settled: I was to be a professional DJ. Present Today, my career is in its 20th year with no signs of slowing down. I’ve played just about every NYC lounge, bar, and dance club from Wall Street to 125th, from Brooklyn to the Bronx, not-to-mention residencies and guest spots across the globe; I continue to work with a growing list of high-profile clients and world-renown artists (like Snoop Dogg, Diplo, Benny Blanco, Boyz II Men, John Legend, Miguel, Blondie…). I spin some of the most celebrated annual events in NYC, including the Brooklyn Black Tie Ball, the Brooklyn Botanic Garden Spring Gala, and Central Park Summerstage to name a few; I’ve created the most legendary old-school dance party in NYC history, the award-winning Freedom Party® (19-plus years and 900-plus parties; voted “Best Dance Party” by Village Voice in 2015); and I continue to create unforgettable nightlife experiences for people from all walks of life. Future After years of hard work, dedication and professionalism, my name and reputation as a DJ in the music and entertainment industry precedes itself. And though I don’t get to play nearly as much ELO at the gigs as I’d like to, and 8-track tapes (and Liberace) are long gone, my love for the music, the night, and for making people smile are still here.

One of few trance artists bypassing 200,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, Somna’s music regularly finds itself on the playlists of Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Markus Schulz, Ferry Corsten, Gareth Emery, Cosmic Gate and more. Reaching beyond his talents of songwriting, Somna is also a highly sought-after remixer, having remixed for the likes of Markus Schulz, BT, Paul Oakenfold, Andy Moor, Menno de Jong and Lange. As a performing artist, Somna fuses together traditional mixing with current technologies in a way that creates an atmosphere for fans into a journey of what trance is truly about. His experiences with prior aliases over the years has led to performances at Global Gathering, Creamfields, Coloursfest, Eden (Ibiza), The Arches (Scotland), LoveFest (USA), and shows across Canada, UK, USA, Japan, Spain, Australia and New Zealand. As Somna, he has taken his music to the main stage at Dreamstate in Southern California, Colosseum in Jakarta (Indonesia), Womb in Tokyo (Japan) and events in Norway, Netherlands, Switzerland, Mexico, United States, United Kingdom and Canada. Just a peek into support from the world’s top trance DJs includes regular premieres on universally popular podcasts such as A State Of Trance, Group Therapy, Corsten’s Countdown, Global DJ Broadcast and more. Recognition from A-list DJs include Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Markus Schulz, Paul Van Dyk, Gareth Emery, Andy Moor, TyDi, Lange, Cosmic Gate, Paul Oakenfold, Guiseppe Ottaviani, Heatbeat, Mark Sixma and many more. The abundance of support stands as a true testament to the quality of Somna’s music. As a prolific multi-genre producer and engineer, his track alongside Andy Moor “One Thing About You” featuring Amy Kirkpatrick, reached #1 on Beatport and stayed in the top 10 for three weeks. Adding to Somna’s Beatport success, “One Thing About You” won the 2015 award for the most streamed trance track on Beatport. 2015 and 2016 also saw multiple Somna releases reach the top 10 on Beatport, with tracks featuring the likes of Jennifer Rene & Michele C. To mark Lange Recordings’ 200th release, Somna was invited to team up with Johnny Yono and Monoverse. The result was “Hijackers”, a triple threat labor of love which reached #3 on the Beatport charts. During these years, Somna also made two label debuts (Armada Captivating and Future Sound Of Egypt Excelsior) and joined the trance elite as he had the honor of mixing a 3 disc compilation alongside Andy Moor for AVA Recordings’ 10 year anniversary. Coupled by a truly rare triple play on A State Of Trance (episode #791), 2016 was fantastic year for Somna. His success carried over into 2017 as Somna showed no signs of slowing down with the Canadian hitting 140,000 monthly listeners on Spotify and a yearly collected data showing a staggering 13.4 million plus minutes streamed for his music on the #1 streaming platform. 2018 was a powerhouse year for Somna with a new single on Armada’s Captivating label, hitting the landmark 1 million streams for his single “Look Back” on Spotify and debut appearances in Jakarta (Indonesia), Oslo (Norway), Zurich (Switzerland) and Amsterdam (Netherlands). Somna’s 2019 started on a high with a “Progressive Pick” winner on A State Of Trance and with “Razor”, signed to Armin Van Buuren’s personal label Armind Recordings. 2019 also marked a debut on Gareth Emery’s Garuda Recordings with two high energy singles as well as delivering remixes for Markus Schulz and Lange. Continuing upwards, Somna teamed up with HALIENE for “Secret” to critical acclaim, receiving triple plays on A State Of Trance and an official music video. On the performance front, Somna debuted in Mexico City as well as the prestigious Dreamstate festival main stage in Southern California where he treated fans to world exclusive sneak peeks of his forthcoming artist album. Closing the year with the landmark 300th release from AVA Recordings with his collaboration with Andy Moor, Somna cemented himself in the scene as one of the most exciting trance artists to emerge this decade. 2020 saw “Beside You” – Somna’s debut artist album finally released on Black Hole Recordings’ Magik Muzik imprint to critical acclaim. Capturing “album of the month” in Mixmag and topping the charts in a variety of countries, Somna painted a canvas of music that impacted fans from around the world. While the unfortunate events of the pandemic caused his album tour plans (USA, UK, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan) to get canceled, Somna took to new avenues to share his music. Finding his feet swiftly as a partner on the Twitch streaming platform, his channel has grown exponentially over 2020 with a dedicated community and fan base edging towards 10k followers. Combining his flair for humor, a catalog and production history spanning multiple genres, Somna’s channel continues to innovate and connect fans to his music weekly. As the label manager, A&R and co-owner of AVA Recordings, Somna continues to make strides while playing an important role within the scene. His bi-monthly radio show entitled “Reanimate Music” broadcasts every first and third Wednesday on Digitally Imported (di.fm), the #1 online dance radio station in the world. With a promising outlook on 2021, Somna continues his artistic journey with a steady stream of music on the scene’s best labels as well as reigniting his tour schedule with stops around the world.

Dance Loud on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/17/23

Thu, 17 Aug 2023 20:30:00 +0000

Dance Loud on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/17/23 About Dance Loud - Opposites do more than attract. Their fusion generates friction and sparks energy. Representing opposing sides of the spectrum, Kristin Sanchez [DJ, producer, engineer] and Desereé Fawn Zimmerman [drums, guitar, vocals] comprise one dynamic and diverse whole in Dance Loud. The Chicago duo co-mingles Fawn’s live instrumentation steeped in classical training with Sanchez’s electronic production and DJ wizardry. Acclaimed by Chicago Tribune and sharpened into a live force via countless shows since their 2008 formation, the pair push the full potential of this union on their 2020 independent full-length debut, The Moment. “Duality seems to be a constant theme in our life together,” states Kristin. “We’re each other’s creative opposite. Desereé is a total metalhead with jazz and gospel roots. I’ve always been into bouncy club music and started out as a Latin and soulful DJ. When you put us together, you get Dance Loud. The Moment reflects both halves where the beginning of the track listing is more like me, and the bottom half is super emotional like Desereé. The one thing that never changed is the fact we really like high tempos. It’s the midnight BPM at 128.” “We call it ‘Emotional Dance Music’,” adds Desereé. “You can experience it together, but it’s almost meant to be heard alone.” Initially, Kristin and Desereé caught each other’s attention in art school. A relationship blossomed before they found themselves on stage together. As the story goes, Kristin had a DJ gig, and Desereé hopped on the drums, illuminating the potential of their creative chemistry. By taking on real estate projects, they financed a D.I.Y. musical operation as Dance Loud. They dropped their debut single “Spy Vs. Spy” in 2013 and performed across North America, taking over the Artist Lounge at Bonnaroo and packing celebrated venues such as Knitting Factory in New York and The Steady in Toronto. The pair trucked along and quietly built an audience until a horrific accident nearly derailed everything. In 2017, a semi-truck rear-ended their vehicle. Airlifted out of the wreck with internal bleeding, Sanchez broke eight ribs, her collar bone, sacrum and shattered pelvis. The destruction also claimed an old computer with ten unreleased songs as well as other gear. During a month in the hospital, the future became clear. “Kristin wasn’t able to walk for a long time,” sighs Desereé. “Music was the only thing helping her. We started talking about it in the hospital, because we had nothing but time to think.” “It really put a fire up our asses,” adds Kristin. “I shut down the voice in my head telling me not to do this. I said to Desereé, ‘If we’re going to die tomorrow, do you want to have one song or an album?’” As soon as they left the hospital, they commenced work on what would become The Moment. The musicians successfully completed a GoFundMe campaign, which was created, hosted, and launched by their friends during the accident. Afterwards, they created the entire body of work independently—thanking funders in the eventual liner notes. Now, Dance Loud introduce the record with the first single “Hollow.” Crafted from analog guitars, drums, and field recordings, distorted synths give way to an angular beat as hypnotic vocals enchant and engage. It blurs the lines between electronic immersion and alternative orchestration. “It specifically speaks on duality,” Kristin explains. “It’s about being hollow inside. Every bad person has a good side, and every good person has a bad side. It’s a pervasive theme on the record.” Meanwhile, chilling piano and sinewy guitar wrap around “Why Lie.” The downtempo soundscape ebbs and flows alongside the hushed delivery. “It’s about a realtor we knew who kept lying for no reason,” Kristin goes on. “There’s no need to lie though—ever.” Chirps and buzzing lock into a future-forward groove on “Shady Beach” as the track shuffles towards a bold and blissful refrain. Then, there’s “Hear Me Out.” Intense emotion spills out between off-kilter beats as they detail “a real argument in our relationship and how sometimes we need to be alone to heal ourselves.” Meanwhile, they bookend the record with “Time” and “Travel,” which much like the members also complete a full circle. “They’re two sides of the same piece,” Desereé elaborates. “We were obsessed with studying time travel at the time. We were also really inspired by Dark Side of the Moon and all of the conspiracy theories about it. We wanted the whole album to represent an endless loop with ‘Time’ and ‘Travel’.” In the end, the duality distinguishes Dance Loud forever. “This is our journey together,” Kristin leaves off. “After the accident, it all started to make sense. By embracing who we are and our differences, we’re about spreading positivity and karma through this music.” Desereé concludes, “Each song has a lot to tell people. It’s like we can’t shut up.” About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Simply City on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 11/10/22 About Simply City - Chilean-born DJ/Producer SIMPLY CITY began his music career embedded in clubs and raves in his native city of Santiago under the alias Cesar “Bass” Romero. After developing a reputation as one of the most in-demand DJ’s in his home country, Cesar left Chile to begin touring across Latin America, Asia, Europe, and North America in the pursuit of launching his DJ career. Cesar then spent many years traveling and touring the world internationally as a DJ. It was Montreal, however, where he decided to root himself after much time abroad. Here, he gained a coveted spot as a resident at Montreal's world famous Stereo Afterhours, where he’s been engaging crowds and developing his sound for over 10 years. Stereo’s globally recognized sound system, acoustic space, and dedicated club-goers gave Cesar the opportunity not only to apply his breadth of experience as a career DJ, but also to explore a variety of new musical territories. At Stereo, Cesar never fails to flex his mixing skills to an audience of “stereo-heads”; always taking them on truly sonic and atmospheric journeys through his music. Whether opening up the room for some of the biggest names in electronic music or taking over the space for an “all night long” set, Cesar’s mastery of tight mixing and careful track selection have garnered him respect both locally and internationally. Outside of DJing, Cesar has released several tracks on some of the most well-renowned progressive house labels; ultimately putting himself on the map as one Montreal’s most recognized progressive house producers. SIMPLY CITY continues to play his music beyond Canada’s borders, and consistently delivers his infectious Stereo flare to audiences across the world.

Ferry Corsten on the On Location Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions at ADE 10/21/22

Fri, 21 Oct 2022 19:00:00 +0000

Ferry Corsten on the On Location Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions at ADE 10/21/22 About Ferry Corsten - Hailing from Rotterdam, The Netherlands, Ferry Corsten’s illustrious career is exemplified by a passion for music that began as a hobby and spiraled into a full-blown profession, as he continues to push the boundaries of electronic music. This is exemplified by Ferry Corsten’ recently released ambient album, ‘As Above So Below’ under his FERR By Ferry Corsten alias, a personal project which allowed him to further explore his love for orchestral music that evolved from his long-running Stillpoint playlist. Ferry’s love for cinematic sounds has long been present in his music, as the iconic Rotterdam native signed off on his 5th artist album as Ferry Corsten – Blueprint. In 2017 This interstellar storyline-driven epic is something unlike any Ferry Corsten record before and preceded the release of Ferry’s first soundtrack early last year, composing the score for David Gleeson’s late-2018 thriller ‘Don’t Go’. 2019 also saw Ferry continue with his UNITY project, a concept launched in 2018 that has seen Ferry collaborate with iconic trance acts throughout the year with the vision of uniting the Trance community for a bigger cause. Ferry has partnered with VH1’s Save The Music Foundation, an organization formed to reinstate music programs for children, which has helped 2,100 schools to date. These high-profile UNITY collaborations include works with Paul Oakenfold, Ilan Bluestone, Gabriel & Dresden, Sander van Doorn under his Purple Haze alias, and most recently with Ciaran McAuley on ‘Mo Chara’. 2019 also saw Ferry place in DJ Mag’s Top100DJs poll for the 8th consecutive year, rising 15 places to #59 and extending his position as the longest serving Dutch DJ in the poll; capping what was an impressive year. Ferry has been consistently at the top of his game since his sophomoric album under the System F alias ‘Out of The Blue’ in 1999, with the title track charting in the UK Top 20 singles chart. He’s continued this success with numerous remix requests, including remixes for U2, Moby, Faithless, Duran Duran and Public Enemy. Ferry also partnered with Tiësto around this time for the now legendary Gouryella handle, a project Ferry relaunched in 2016 with the hugely popular ‘Anahera’ single, and later a Gouryella 2.0 Live show gracing the stages of EDC, Ultra, Tomorrowland and more. Ferry himself graced the stage with standout shows at the likes of Parookaville, EDC Las Vegas and Tomorrowland last year. Ferry also debuted his System F live show in November 2018 at Dreamstate SoCal to mark 20 years of ‘Out of The Blue’ and has since taken it worldwide to the likes of Electronic Family and Transmission. Ferry also recently announced his WHAT THE F concept, unifying his System F, Gouryella and Ferry Corsten aliases for a series of intimate open-to-close exclusive sets, comprised of solely his own material, across the world in the coming months. Ferry continues to break new ground in the trance world and beyond, demonstrated by his nomination for ‘Best Trance DJ’ at the 2018 DJ Awards and more recently winning the prestigious ‘Legacy Award’ at the 2019 edition of the International Dance Music Awards (IDMA’s) in Miami during Miami Music Week. Alongside hit global exploits as a DJ, chart scaling achievements in the studio, Ferry continues to have a day-to-day involvement in his Flashover Recordings imprint, recently partnering with Armada Music for future releases. Launched back in 2005, Ferry’s label enables him to scour the world for fresh talent and release music by cutting-edge producers, giving them a voice on the world stage, alongside hosting his own label parties everywhere from Amsterdam Dance Event to Miami Music Week.

Proff on Location Sessions at ADE presented by The DJ Sessions 10/19/22 About Proff - Music has accompanied Vladimir Ershov (PROFF) his whole life. From a very tender age, he was obtaining classical education at musical, variety art, and jazz schools as well as extra lessons of piano and saxophone mastership. Sometime later, he discovered a new world of electronic sounds which afterward entirely captured his mind. Experiments with the basic audio production software, loops and sample libraries, purchase of the first synthesizer, attention, and support from fellows on the dance music scene took Vladimir closer to the fulfillment of his dream to become a professional DJ and producer with every next step. PROFF started DJing on a regular basis in 2003, he participated in a number of DJ contests and recieved medal places. Since 2004, Vladimir was a resident at Sunwave radio station and combined scheduled broadcasts with the continuous sharpening of his production skills at the studio in search of his very own signature sound. While PROFF’s gig schedule got much tougher, a natural result was increased attention to both his DJing style and own tracks: the debut ones, “Gentleman” and “You’ll See,” were released on Moscow Dancefloor Records in 2006, and the first strong work which has seen the light of day outside Russia was PROFF’s remix of “Zair” by Tenthu, released in 2007 on Alter Ego in the UK. Shortly thereafter, Vladimir’s name appeared on a number of record labels, including Send Records, Snoochi Boochi, Flash Records, Mashtronic, and Kontakt Recordings, his own imprint. A life-changing turning point for PROFF’s biography was his acquaintance with the Australian producer Jaytech in 2008, who introduced the works of the Russian fellow to the members of the Above & Beyond trio. It started a long-term and fruitful collaboration with the British label Anjunadeep, which blazed a trail for Vladimir’s music to the international market. Having gained the support of top-level names of the dance music industry like Above & Beyond, Armin van Buuren, Paul van Dyk, Kyau & Albert, Mat Zo, Super8 & Tab, and Michael Cassette, today’s PROFF continues to summit new heights of an artist’s creative career. PROFF is justly considered as one of modern Russia’s most successful producers. He participated in the grandiose celebration of the jubilee 300th episode of Trance Around The World radio show and is a frequent DJ at Kazantip. His tracks jeweled Anjunadeep’s 100th release, The Collaborations EP, and the summarizing compilation Anjunadeep The Yearbook 2011. Original productions, collective works, and numerous remixes by PROFF have been repeatedly ranked in Top 100 Beatport and caught the attention of the dance music industry flagships like Armada Music, Solaris, Vandit, Proton, Silk Music, Noys Music, and Enhanced. At present, Vladimir’s discography counts over 100 releases; he devotes himself to daily studio work, gigs across Russia and all over the world, recording PROFF Music podcasts and collecting ideas for the debut artist album, which, according to Vladimir’s projection, will be a mixture of moods between deep, electro, funk, ambient, rock, breaks, drum & bass, trance and progressive.

Recognition from A-list DJs include Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Markus Schulz, Paul Van Dyk, Gareth Emery, Andy Moor, TyDi, Lange, Cosmic Gate, Paul Oakenfold, Guiseppe Ottaviani, Heatbeat, Mark Sixma and many more. The abundance of support stands as a true testament to the quality of Somna’s music. As a prolific multi-genre producer and engineer, his track alongside Andy Moor “One Thing About You” featuring Amy Kirkpatrick, reached #1 on Beatport and stayed in the top 10 for three weeks. Adding to Somna’s Beatport success, “One Thing About You” won the 2015 award for the most streamed trance track on Beatport. 2015 and 2016 also saw multiple Somna releases reach the top 10 on Beatport, with tracks featuring the likes of Jennifer Rene & Michele C. To mark Lange Recordings’ 200th release, Somna was invited to team up with Johnny Yono and Monoverse. The result was “Hijackers”, a triple threat labor of love which reached #3 on the Beatport charts. During these years, Somna also made two label debuts (Armada Captivating and Future Sound Of Egypt Excelsior) and joined the trance elite as he had the honor of mixing a 3 disc compilation alongside Andy Moor for AVA Recordings’ 10 year anniversary. Coupled by a truly rare triple play on A State Of Trance (episode #791), 2016 was fantastic year for Somna. His success carried over into 2017 as Somna showed no signs of slowing down with the Canadian hitting 140,000 monthly listeners on Spotify and a yearly collected data showing a staggering 13.4 million plus minutes streamed for his music on the #1 streaming platform. 2018 was a powerhouse year for Somna with a new single on Armada’s Captivating label, hitting the landmark 1 million streams for his single “Look Back” on Spotify and debut appearances in Jakarta (Indonesia), Oslo (Norway), Zurich (Switzerland) and Amsterdam (Netherlands). Somna’s 2019 started on a high with a “Progressive Pick” winner on A State Of Trance and with “Razor”, signed to Armin Van Buuren’s personal label Armind Recordings. 2019 also marked a debut on Gareth Emery’s Garuda Recordings with two high energy singles as well as delivering remixes for Markus Schulz and Lange. Continuing upwards, Somna teamed up with HALIENE for “Secret” to critical acclaim, receiving triple plays on A State Of Trance and an official music video. On the performance front, Somna debuted in Mexico City as well as the prestigious Dreamstate festival main stage in Southern California where he treated fans to world exclusive sneak peeks of his forthcoming artist album. Closing the year with the landmark 300th release from AVA Recordings with his collaboration with Andy Moor, Somna cemented himself in the scene as one of the most exciting trance artists to emerge this decade. 2020 saw “Beside You” – Somna’s debut artist album finally released on Black Hole Recordings’ Magik Muzik imprint to critical acclaim. Capturing “album of the month” in Mixmag and topping the charts in a variety of countries, Somna painted a canvas of music that impacted fans from around the world. While the unfortunate events of the pandemic caused his album tour plans (USA, UK, Indonesia, Malaysia, Japan) to get cancelled, Somna took to new avenues to share his music. Finding his feet swiftly as a partner on the Twitch streaming platform, his channel has grown exponentially over 2020 with a dedicated community and fan base edging towards 10k followers. Combining his flair for humor, a catalog and production history spanning multiple genres, Somna’s channel continues to innovate and connect fans to his music weekly. As the label manager, A&R and co-owner of AVA Recordings, Somna continues to make strides while playing an important role within the scene. His bi-monthly radio show entitled “Reanimate Music” broadcasts every first and third Wednesday on Digitally Imported (di.fm), the #1 online dance radio station in the world. With a promising outlook on 2021, Somna continues his artistic journey with a steady stream of music on the scene’s best labels as well as reigniting his tour schedule with stops around the world.

Bissen on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 11am PST 10/04/22

Tue, 04 Oct 2022 18:00:00 +0000

Bissen on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 11am PST 10/04/22 About Bissen - Hot off his second mix compilation album, a continuous US tour, a slew of major label remixes for the likes of M83, Madonna, Depeche Mode, Major Lazer, Jojo and Ruth B, two Beatport Top 10 hits over the last couple year with his project Exostate, and a slew of upcoming releases in the pipelines, German-born, New York residing Georg Bissen has never been busier making his mark in the world of EDM. Bissen has created some of the biggest dancefloor smashers in the club scene in recent years, all while also designing sound presets for Ableton Live, Sample Logic and others, writing music for adverts for some of the world's biggest brands, doing sound design and composing for major TV networks, and running his own music licensing, production and publishing business. Storming the scene almost a decade ago with the now classics "Exhale" and "Quicksand," Bissen has, as a dance music artist and producer, had over a hundred original and remix releases since. These records have been released on some of the biggest, most desired and well-respected labels in the industry, including many of the major label imprints. Always in pursuit of a fist-pumping, "all systems go" attitude, Bissen's sound exhibits an effective blend of tough, energetic beats and grooves, coupled with extremely memorable, big melodic riffs and hooks--proper huge tunes for dancefloors, not armchairs, that have lasting impacts on clubgoers and DJs alike. Bissen creates one club banger after another, from his remix of the Black Eyed Peas #1 song "I Gotta Feeling", which was one of Ibiza's summer anthems of 2009 and received extensive UK BBC Radio1 play, to 2011's "2nite U R Perfect", which was one of the year's most memorable club songs, being featured on German and US FM radio, as well as on DMX, reaching millions of shoppers every day; to 2016's remix of The Chainsmoker's "Don't Let Me Down", which got extensive club and US terrestrial radio play, especially on New York's 103.5 WKTU. 2011 saw Bissen start up his project "Exostate" with singer Jeza for Enhanced Recordings, 2 out of 3 singles released so far reaching the Beatport Top 10. In late 2012, along with long-term collaborator Victor Dinaire, Bissen embarked on doing remixes for major artists and labels, starting with the French art rock band M83's "Steve McQueen", received to much critical acclaim, as well as Major Lazer and Flux Pavilion's "Jah No Partial", which went top 25 on the Billboard club charts. With a remix in 2014 for Bingo Players’ “Knock You Out” the duo helped propel the release to #1 on the Billboard Club charts, scoring their first #1 record on that chart. Dinaire and Bissen have since lent their hands to dozens of remixes, helping releases chart in the top 10 of the Billboard Club Play Charts numerous times since 2014, with 5 additional https://www.facebook.com/hashtag/1s?__eep__=6&__cft__%5B0%5D=AZWh97Bbc65dJWBjWj60-e096ocY1mIThjMvdLdRg9bfSxm0ZU8KLuPqKXOgMfGMnWY7evicLZbB87M1z4rBXPtSTj60Jm6VapDWQ55Tvdp_5P-pZuzql8JTSsA3HbV2lGVnwLLsTpNbPTA_Jp9d41ncHEv4NkwRi4Tlih2y2PP5wQ&__tn__=q so far. In 2016, Dinaire+Bissen remixed Ruth B "Lost Boy", which went into summer-long regular rotation on terrestrial US radio, including WAPE Jacksonville and KKHH Houston. In 2015, alongside Victor Dinaire, Bissen scored the documentary “Glory Daze: The Life and Times of Michael Alig”, which documents the heyday of New York clubbing in the 90s. The soundtrack is an authentic representation of the classic New York club sound of the mid 1990s. The movie saw a North American release in 2016 and can currently be viewed on all major streaming portals as well as on Netflix. In 2016 Bissen started working closely with renowned DJ Tony Moran. Their collaborative effort has spawned over 2 dozen works, including many original records for Moran, as well as joining together for a few remixes. Bissen eventually produced and co-produced over half of Moran's latest double-sided album "Mood Swings." The two updated a cover version of the 90’s Lighthouse Family “High” as a charity song for the 2016 Orlando club shooting massacre victim’s families. As a DJ, Bissen delivers his no-nonsense approach with exciting and uplifting sets. He boasts over a decade of spinning experience, beginning in college, and continuing in New York, where, for years he djayed at loft parties, which he helped organize. Since 2011, Bissen has seen his international DJ career soar, playing in the UK, Germany and Canada, as well as filling clubs all over the US, including Los Angeles (Circus), San Diego (Hard Rock), Philadelphia (Rumor), Orange County (Sutra) and of course New York, where he currently plays about once a month-- from big rooms such as Pacha and Webster Hall, to more intimate venues, where he can experiment with and debut new tracks. In September 2012 Bissen celebrated the 100th episode of his radioshow and podcast "TranceAtlantic" live at the National Underground in New York.

DJ Shash’U on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 1pm PST 9/29/22

Thu, 29 Sep 2022 20:00:00 +0000

DJ Shash'U on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 1pm PST 9/29/22 About DJ Shash'U - Afrofuturist B-Boy, remix alchemist, legit funk phenomenon… Montreal’s Shash’U is truly one of a kind. He’s been burning down stages from Boiler Room at SXSW to underground street dance competition “Juste Debout” with a mix of wild style remixes and audacious originals that sound at once alien and familiar, turning even the poppiest of radio hits into breakbeat battle weapons. This approach has won Shash’U a rabid following. Originally from Montreal – son of Haitian parents – Richard St- Aubin, best known as Shash’U, first saw the light of day in 1983. He was only 9 when he began to play the drums and then turned to electronic music composition in his late adolescence. He would soon thereafter develop a unique signature sound thanks to his mixture of avant-garde hip-hop, funk, r&b and electro acoustics. At the age of twenty and after a few years of practicing various forms of street dance, Shash’U adopted the turntables to become the DJ that we know today. He has since forged a solid reputation in the planet-wide realm of street dance. His musical career began to take shape through his performances as DJ-beat producer for his fellow street dancers, for whom he composes and plays his instrumentals in international competitions. This introduction to the DJ art is what allowed him to make the leap into the world of nightclubs. As of the year 2005, Shash’U – who already possessed a solid DJ reputation – starts building his amazing track record as a composer and songwriter, collaborating with some of the biggest names in hip-hop and electro beat both in Quebec and abroad. A-Trak (CA/USA), Lunice (CA), Kaytranada (CA), Chromeo (CA/USA), James DiSalvio (Bran Van 3000), Youssoupha (FR), Kutmah (UK), Gage (Fr), Gilles Peterson (UK), are some of the artists with whom he teams up. Now, with a musical career spanning ten years and having traveled throughout the world with his music, Shash’U has become one of the great ones in the international beat world setting the stage for his signing with the New York label Fool’s Gold Records. Shash’U has been invited to prestigious events and festivals such as: SXSW (Boiler Room, Fool’s Gold Showcase, Mad Decent x Fool’s Gold Super Party), Be Street Weekend (Paris), Low End Theory (LA), Fool’S Gold Day Off (NYC), Francofolies de Montréal, Igloofest, etc. His online presence is also growing by the minute (34 000 followers on Soundcloud and almost 10 million plays, 34 000 fans on Facebook, millions of views on Youtube) and the demand for international touring is increasing proportionally. His numerous free remixes and EPs offered online and the millions of plays he has received on Soundcloud and Youtube have allowed him to build a fan base in the four corners of the world. His style, which he calls PWRFNK (Power Funk), is unmistakably identified by the character of his drums and by the omnipresence of his bass. PWRFNK revolves through synthesizers from the 80’s, melodic bass lines and funk, which our Montrealer revisits with a contemporary approach to vintage-hip- hop/street beat with an urban flavour. Montreal beat king Shash’U kicked off 2015 with his debut Fool’s Gold EP Thru Da Night, launching his inventive, muscular take on dance music worldwide, and racking up props from underground peers like Kaytranada, gatekeepers at MTV and BBC Radio, and sweaty fans around the globe in the process. Most producers would be content to repeat a successful formula on their follow-up release, but on the new PWRFNK EP, Shash’U blows up his own playbook entirely, blazing forward with a wildly self-assured sound that slaps futuristic, heavy bass over ‘80s-inspired electro grooves, a musical genre soon to be recognized worldwide as PWRFNK.

Michael Anthony on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 1pm PST 9/12/22 About Michael Anthony - I've signed several releases to Sirup & PinkStar Black (EDX's labels) and have received support from him in his NoXcuses Radio show. NYC-based DJ Michael Anthony has been playing at the most popular venues in New York and around the world for over a decade. Whether he’s performing on the beaches of Cabo San Lucas, or in a nightclub in Montreal, Michael finds himself most at ease playing music for the crowd. The Past: Early on in his career, Michael knew that in order to stand out as a DJ, he had to create his own tracks/remixes. After networking a bit in the NYC DJ scene, he began learning directly from the NYC trance duo legends Filo & Peri and quickly became committed to mastering the craft of music production. The Present: Michael has released tracks on all worldwide marketplaces with many major artists. He was personally asked by the house music legend Stonebridge to remix his classic, “Sometimes” and a new release, “So Good”. Both releases charted internationally and gained the respect of the dance community. In 2021, Michael’s collaboration, “For You” was released on Will Sparks’ record label TeamWrk Records. His next release “Say Yes” was released on top Amsterdam record label Groove Bassment and quickly amassed over 100k streams on Spotify alone. Charting regularly on 1001Tracklists and making it to the top 100 Future House Beatport Chart are just a few of Michael’s 2021 accomplishments. His tracks have been in rotation on Sirius XM BPM and supported by major top 100 DJ’S (Tiesto, Hardwell, Stonebridge, MYNC CR2 Records, Sunnery & Ryan, Kryder, W&W, Judge Jules, Liquid Todd + many more…) The Future: With an international distribution deal, multiple signed records slated for release, and a monthly house music residency in NYC, the sky's the limit for Michael Anthony.

They Kiss on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 11am PST 9/7/22

Wed, 07 Sep 2022 18:00:00 +0000

They Kiss on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 11am PST 9/7/22 About They Kiss - A political refugee and a globetrotting DJ; a classically trained multi-instrumentalist and a film school grad; a perfectionist singer and an inspired producer. Individually, Anna Makovchik and Francesco Civetta (aka Cash) boast fascinating backstories; together, they’re L.A. synth-pop phenom They Kiss, whose debut album Feeling With You drops on August 26. Co-produced by GRAMMY-winning Kanye cohort Mikalai Skrobat, Feeling With You explores love and life experience through pop-savvy electronica with a rock & roll soul, its cinematic sensibilities skewed through a singularly transatlantic prism. They Kiss had already written several songs for the 2021 Lionsgate film, The Gateway, directed by Cash’s brother Michele Civetta, prior to lockdown. When COVID hit, the duo holed up in a New York townhouse where they cobbled together a makeshift studio. From this unintended hermitude emerged, arresting 2020 singles “This Love is Real” and “I Gave it All,” both of which are featured on the record.   Once back in L.A., the duo’s expanding collection of co-writes organically became an album, including contributions from Arthur Delaney and Dom Goldsmith (Hælos), Alexander Dexter-Jones, drummer Alex Carapetis (The Voidz), and Anna’s Belarusian compatriots Yoga Shyp (ex-Kiwi Time, guitar) and Skrobat.   theykiss.band THEY KISS... THEY (Anna & Cash) KISS. They Kiss is an LA-based synth-pop duo made up of Anna Makovchik & Francesco Civetta, aka Cash. Before the creation of They Kiss, Anna was a multi-instrumentalist and the lead singer-songwriter in Kiwi Time, a San Francisco-based rock band. Cash is the frontman of Cash and the Whitelinez and a seasoned international DJ that has toured the world, playing festivals and movie premiere parties. As their paths organically converged, both members connected creatively into a seamless collaboration fuelled by their love of rock'n'roll, British trip-pop, Grunge, and 80's synth- pop. 'This Love is Real,' their debut single, showcases the duo's magnetic pop experimentalism in a cross-genre sonic experience that is equal parts retro and futuristic, but innately their own. 'This Love is Real' was produced by Anna Makovchik, Arthur Delaney from Haelos, and Francesco Civetta (Cash), with co-production by David Sisko. In 'I Gave It All,' their upcoming single,' the duo delivers dancefloor- ready groovy drums over a moody, melancholic melody. 'I gave it all,' is a redemptive song encapsulating the sobering moment when you realize a relationship didn't work out. Still, you're moving on with a lesson learned - ready to embrace the fullness of what the world has to offer. 'I gave it all,' as produced by Anna Makovchik, Dom Goldsmith's from Haelos, and Francesco Civetta (Cash). They Kiss also wrote five songs for the upcoming movie "The Gateway," starring Shae Wiggum, Olivia Munn, and Bruce Dern, directed by Michele Civetta. Their single "Enter the Gateway" is the opening post-credit song and appears throughout the film. The name for their band "THEY KISS" came from their friend who said, "Well you two are in a relationship, so you should call yourself 'THEY KISS' cause you guys kiss.

Robot Koch on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/31/22 About Robot Koch - Robot Koch is an award winning artist/producer/composer from Berlin, living in Los Angeles. He has been steadily crafting a remarkably mature and original sound that expertly combines a deep and cinematic atmosphere, emotional reflection and forward thinking production. His visual music lends itself to picture and has been used on numerous TV Shows, Movie Trailers, Feature Films and Ad campaigns over the last few years. Robot Koch has been presenting his music live over the last decade, attracting a growing audience worldwide and appearing on the lineups of major festivals like Coachella, Sonar, Mutek and playing Boiler Room several times. Apart from pursuing his artist career, Robert Koch can be found working as a producer and writer for both indie and major artists worldwide, gaining gold and platinum records for his productions. For his album Sphere Koch expanded his musical horizon even more and created an immersive Full Dome Live Show with 3D surround sound and 360 visuals, which he developed in cooperation with visual artist Mickael Le Goff. Sphere sold out in Planetariums and Festivals worldwide, winning several awards for "Best Immersive Experience". Robert Koch, who also won the German Music Composers Award 2014 in the category 'Best Composer Electronic Music' runs his own label, Trees and Cyborgs, which he founded in 2016. Robot Koch's music is an intriguing dialogue between technology and nature that seems particularly relevant to the times we live in. It's a constantly evolving exploration of that what lies beyond. “It's like traveling through space, with all the beautiful and scary moments such a journey involves,” says Koch. It is this confluence of beauty and fear that likewise grants his music a shamanic motif, as the BBC’s Bobby Friction noted on Koch’s music; "It sounds like artificial intelligence discovering religion." Robot Koch has become well known for his cinematic compositions, which transcend music into real living experiences. For his album Sphere he took the exploration of space to new grounds that reached far beyond sound. Conceived as the soundtrack to an audiovisual live show with surround sound and 360 visuals, the project was not only a musical exploration of space, but also an observable voyage through outer and inner space. Made especially to be exhibited in planetariums and full-dome venues, Sphere sold out in venues from Berlin to San Francisco, Chicago to Moscow. The project which he created in collaboration with visual artist Mickael Le Goff has recently been shown at Sonar Barcelona and Mutek Montreal, and won “best immersive experience” at Macon Film Festival as well as "Best Dome Visuals" at the DTLA Film Festival. Koch and Le Goff continue to work on new immersive experiences, installations and films.

Dan Marciano on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/24/22 About Dan Marciano - Dan Marciano is about to become the worst-kept secret in dance music. Born and raised in Paris, he has long been revered as a revolutionary of the French electronic music scene and Dan takes his DJ skills to famous clubs both large and small in every corner of the world, from Germany, Italy and Miami to Singapore, Brasil to Buenos Aires. He has also been producing and remixing since 2000. Now, following the successful seasons of his The Tribes party Dan’s star is set to rise even higher. He says simply: “I have the best job in the world.” The Tribes brings together music royalty including Sven Vath, Marco Carola, Solomun, Maceo Plex, Ellen Allien, Carl Cox, Jamie Jones, Guy Gerber, and Magda, for an series of events showcasing the most notorious, talked-about parties on the planet: Circoloco, Music On, Cocoon, Paradise, Mobilee… Dan Marciano always loved music and dancing. As a kid he spent his pocket money on Michael Jackson or George Benson records but when house music emerged in Paris he found a spiritual home. Inspired by legends like Carl Cox, Laurent Garnier and Jeff Mills, and enthralled by the colour and magic of the dancefloor, Dan threw himself into DJing. It was harder to get a break in the pre-internet era and he remembers doing things the old fashioned way: handing out cassettes and throwing his own parties. Dan built a loyal following and became a resident at some of Paris’s most celebrated clubs including the Palace, Les Bains Douches, and Queen where he has held court for a dozen years. His success as a DJ is driven by the belief that: "You can have the best records but if you don’t feel the music, and the people in front of you, if you don’t tell a story, it won’t be any good.” This simple philosophy has driven Dan to experiment throughout his career. According to fellow DJs: “His music fascinates and hypnotizes everybody who hears it” Dan is always happiest taking his love of house music to the masses. He is also busy in the studio, pursuing his second passion of making music.With more than a decade of hit records under his belt, including the evergreen ‘Good Morning Paris’, Dan’s production career has evolved along with his DJ style. His extensive back catalogue crosses labels such as Full House, Escape, Royal Flush and Connected Records and recent releases have graced Denfis, Cream Couture and Natural Rhythm. With a full schedule, new management, and ambitious plans, Dan is bursting with excitement for the future. “Clubbing has never lost its magic,” He says. “People call my music house, or underground, but you can’t put a label on it. It’s just about emotion and passion.” About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Wed, 17 Aug 2022 22:00:00 +0000

Tyler Stone on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/17/22 About Tyler Stone - Tyler Stone is a producer/remixer, DJ and vocalist who has built her career as one of the first female house music producers, and has achieved several top ten Billboard Dance hits with her distinctive style rooted in deep house, disco, and downtempo. After receiving a degree in Jazz from Cornish College of the Arts, Tyler relocated to San Francisco to join the legendary Third Floor Productions where she cut her teeth under the tutelage of the masterful DJ EFX, and began showcasing her talents with some of Dance and Pop music’s finest artists. This lead to a string of releases and remixes under the name “Ms T” on numerous dance labels such as Strictly Rhythm, Eightball, and Henry Street, with name acts including Armand Van Helden, Robin S, Crystal Waters and Kimara Lovelace as well as N’SYNC. As an integral part of the 90’s San Francisco dance music scene, Tyler went on to open her own studio, Ms T Productions, and became the “go to” engineer within the house music community, working alongside such producers as Miguel Migs and Grammy nominated Jay-J and Chris Lum. Without skipping a beat, Tyler continues to push the envelope as a producer, lending her sophisticated programming to remixes and collaborations on reputable labels including Nervous and Aventura. Her tracks continue to chart, and receive regular features and playlist adds. Channeling the disco, funk and soul of her youth, and the house music of the early 90’s, Tyler’s tracks have a magic that draws you into the essence of the song. “As a vocalist myself, I tend to pay special attention to how the vocals interact both rhythmically and melodically with the rest of the track.” But make no mistake, at the core of every track is the beat, ready to groove your body at any BPM. Tyler’s production savvy can also be heard in her DJ skills spinning deep house, disco and downtempo. Whether opening for Little Dragon, or playing the private after parties for such bands as Thievery Corporation and Mayor Hawthorne’s Tuxedo, Tyler brings an infectious groove to the party. She has also held residencies at the W Hotel and Ian Schrager’s Clift Hotel and has been called upon frequently to play at exclusive events for the SFMOMA and Make-A-Wish Foundation. Tyler is an active voting member of the Recording Academy (GRAMMY’s) and has served as a National Trustee, as well as Governor for the Pacific NW and San Francisco Chapters. Tyler has proudly participated on many committees involving the awards process, membership, advocacy and community outreach. She currently lives in Portland, Oregon where she serves on the Board of MusicPortland, a non-profit trade association and advocacy group dedicated to establishing a viable and thriving ecosystem within Portland’s music community.

DJ Colette on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/10/22

Wed, 10 Aug 2022 20:00:00 +0000

DJ Colette on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/10/22 About DJ Colette - DJ, producer, vocalist – Colette has grown from an integral part of the Chicago underground into a breakout musical triple-threat releasing her most accomplished and fully realized artistic statement to date. Combining the tunefulness of classic pop songs with the thump of classic house of her hometown, the album ventures into new sonic territory for Colette, from intimate bedroom beats to stadium-shaking dance anthems. When the Music’s Loud is the sound of an artist at the peak of her powers. Always seeking to push boundaries and explore new territories, Chicago native DJ Colette, continues to discover ways to push her craft and career forward even after over two decades of leading the pack. A founding member of the pioneering DJ collective Superjane—along with DJ Heather, Lady D, and Dayhota—Colette has been an integral part of the Midwest underground since the birth of the 90s. Crafting events in Chicago—ones that would see most of Chicago’s second generation of house music artists and DJs graduate to global scales—her Material events at the storied club Shelter in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood were seminal in the development of the house sound of Chicago’s North Side, from the early 1990s on. Colette’s groundbreaking combination of incorporating her live vocals over into DJ sets became her signature and a definitive technique that’s won her fans from six continents. As a natural extension of her formative musical academia at Lane Tech College Prep, she began making recordings, with her first release appearing on 1995’s “Moments of Epiphany” produced by Mazi & DJ Motion for Shroom Records. With an ever-increasing velocity of singles released for independent mainstays such as Icon Recordings, Moody Recordings, Nordic Trax, Brique Rouge, including Derrick Carter’s seminal Classic Music Company, eventually led to recording two successful full-length efforts—2005’s Hypnotized and 2007’s Push—for San Franciso’s legendary imprint OM Records. With multiple Dancestar Awards, commercial licenses, TV placements, and a Top #5 Billboard Hit, Colette was ready to make the next move in her career from not only just making records and playing them, but the upward motion to releasing them as well. Colette launched Candy Talk Records in June of 2010 as a platform for more creative control with her own music, their collaborations, and the choice and freedom to work with other record producers of whom she is a fan. Since then, Colette has personally released eight singles and two full-length efforts of her own work—2013’s crowd-funded When The Music’s Loud (named one of Vice’s 99 greatest dance albums of all time) and 2017’s Retrospective. Releasing remixed and original works from the likes of Gettoblaster, Sonny Fodera, Late Nite Alumni, Lawnchair Generals, Rubb Sound System, Scrubfish, WhiteNoize, Demarkus Lewis, Chuck Love, Golf Clap, Local Options, Change Request, and more she has created a home for other like-minded creators to have a platform for their work. With an ever-growing roster of musicians, producers, and DJs, 2019—thus far—has seen Candy Talk release East Coast production stalwart Pete Moss’ mixes of Colette’s “Dreams”, which peaked at #4 on the Traxsource Deep House Top 100. Establishing a remix series highlighting particular producers, Candy Talk has released two volumes in this series thus far with The Rubb Sound System Remixes (CTR015) and The Gettoblaster Remixes (CTR016), and The Demarkus Lewis Remixes (CTR018) featuring his reworks of "Call On Me", “Dreams”, and “We Feel So Hot” slated for the last quarter of 2019. Looking forward, the label anticipates celebrating its 10th anniversary in 2020 with a compilation centered around the best of the Candy Talk catalog—including some new tracks—(CTR019) in the first half of the new year.

DJ Ruby on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/10/22

Wed, 10 Aug 2022 18:00:00 +0000

DJ Ruby on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/10/22 About DJ Ruby - DJ Ruby is the most prolific underground dance music artist that loomed from the party island of Malta, amassing a huge fan base that follows him unconditionally, as well as an established name throughout the global dance music industry, mainly in the progressive scene. Renowned for delivering flawless journey sets and a positive party vibe wherever he performs, DJ Ruby is considered a true pioneer of his caliber, a hard-working and modest person that has always matured with the scene. He now boasts nearly 30 years of experience, which has obtained him countless achievements and acclaim which are impossible to mention all in a few lines. DJ Ruby is responsible for being a major force in starting and shaping Malta’s elite dance music scene into what it is today. For many years, he hosted countless events under the Pure Promotions imprint, setting trends for various clubbing concepts on the island, and introducing multiple generations to electronic dance music. An active career that started in the early 90’s, and still going strong to date, saw DJ Ruby being featured at Malta’s most notable dance events, opening for many of the world’s legendary names such as Faithless, The Prodigy, Sasha, John Digweed, Carl Cox, Paul Oakenfold, Hernan Cattaneo, Sven Vath, Nick Warren, Steve Lawler, and Dave Seaman, as well as holding residencies at a vast array of influential institutions in the country, including a billing at all Renaissance parties in Malta throughout the 2000’s decade. Over the years, DJ Ruby’s diary has formed to be more like an atlas, performing regularly in venues all over the world; India, Ibiza, Mexico, Russia, Germany, Egypt, Jordan, Netherlands, Thailand, Australia, Italy, Dubai, USA, UK & Hong Kong, just to name a very few. He was also included in the line-ups of notorious festivals such as Timewarp, Ozora, Transmission, Berlin’s Love Parade, Creamfields Malta, and Tomorrowland Unite. As a music producer, DJ Ruby holds a vast discography of his own productions, remixes and 3 albums. Many of his tracks were supported by the planet’s leading DJs, and also made it into the charts of multiple digital outlets such as Beatport and Traxsource. After a very long and successful time working in the local scene, in 2018 DJ Ruby went through a complete rebranding and preparation to break into the international scene. In just a few months he managed to make a name for himself, founding a firm place in the global progressive house stage, gaining worldwide recognition. His regular live video sets, streams, guest mixes, Progcast and the Prog On mix series for Proton are hugely followed online. All his sets tend to go viral instantly, making him a very influential body in the scene, receiving constant good feedback from clubbers, blogs, and artists. As a promoter, in recent years he managed to make the progressive house scene bloom again in Malta. This is mostly thanks to his yearly warehouse event project partnership with Guy J, the Secret Series concept, Open to Close shows, and the regular Ruby & Friends parties which already featured respected players such as Cid Inc, Stereo Underground, Jeremy Olander, Miss Monique, Subandrio, Golan Zocher & Emi Galvan. With a very busy schedule consisting of running events, producing mixes, video sets, touring, and performing non-stop, finding time to do his own music was always very difficult. This changed during Covid-19 days. With no events happening, DJ Ruby spent these months on the studio’s hot seat, producing his own tracks, doing collaborations, and taking on remix work. All the tracks produced during the pandemic are now currently being released back to back on various labels. A great milestone in 2021, was topping multiple Beatport charts with the album compilation ‘Constellations: Orion’ for SLC-6 music. With an impressive biography that can be nearly infinite, DJ Ruby has earned a well-deserved reputation that can be only summarized into one word; legend!!

Kaspar Tasane on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 8/8/22 About Kaspar Tasane - Kaspar Tasane was named the one to watch in 2020 by Soundgarden Resident Gustin in DMC World Magazine. “His music just totally blows me away. It’s elegant yet driving, and has a timeless energy that often reminds me of the mid 1990’s progressive sound.” Hailing from Tallinn, Estonia, Kaspar has used his experience growing up in the European trance scene to bring his own unique flavor to his progressive house beats. Kaspar’s unique sound has garnered support from trance legends Armin Van Buuren who showcased his track Fusha at A State of Trance Festival 700, Airwave, and Matt Darey. As Kaspar’s style has evolved to a more underground progressive sound, DJs such as Darin Epsilon, Kenneth Thomas, Tripswitch, Mariano Mellino, Jorgio Kioris, Sandra Collins, Solid Stone, Wally Lopez, Graziano Raffa, Chris Cargo, Rick Pier O’Neil, BOg, Nicolas Rada, and Chris Fortier have all shown their support.

MJ Cole on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 7/12/22 About MJ Cole - One of U.K. garage's first true stars, MJ Cole's work has spanned Mercury Prize-nominated albums and a lengthy career as a remixer and producer. His widely praised 2000 debut Sincere was a landmark release for the genre, taking the pirate radio-bred sound aboveground by emphasizing its soul and R&B influences. Following 2003's Cut to the Chase, a guest-heavy set that touched on U.K. hip-hop and ragga, Cole remained busy remixing artists like https://open.spotify.com/artist/4iHNK0tOyZPYnBU7nGAgpQ and https://open.spotify.com/artist/6Q192DXotxtaysaqNPy5yR, collaborating with artists ranging from https://open.spotify.com/artist/0gusqTJKxtU1UTmNRMHZcv to https://open.spotify.com/artist/0du5cEVh5yTK9QJze8zA0C, and continually exploring rhythms with his solo EPs and singles. He returned to his classical roots with 2020's MJ Cole Presents Madrugada. While growing up in London, Cole studied the oboe and piano, ultimately earning a degree in music from City University. He also immersed himself in electronic music culture, working as a tape operator and engineer for the drum'n'bass label https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22SOUR%22. Cole issued a breakbeat single as Morf in 1995. While working on https://open.spotify.com/artist/5rBBAjkUV1bF89nr9AGpEu's 2-step remixes for https://open.spotify.com/artist/7CgweQAq49HmeMQaxzyuXC in 1996, he caught the garage bug and worked on numerous productions as well as remixes for https://open.spotify.com/artist/2sIx6SmAMw9IBySG3Uj0jf, https://open.spotify.com/artist/2SYqJ3uDLLXZNyZdLKBy4M, Gwen McRae, https://open.spotify.com/artist/3kcqSqWEss8JZtHBE5IJzZ, and https://open.spotify.com/artist/6Piel9jEbV4Qb18Yw1B2dI. He started releasing garage singles under his own name in 1997, and a few as Box Clever, including one of the first releases on https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22Prolific%20Recordings%22, which he founded in 1998. Cole's song "Sincere," recorded using a sampler and Atari, was released via https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22AM%3APM%22 the same year, and was one of the first Top 40-charting garage singles. Soon after, Cole signed to https://open.spotify.com/artist/4fH73bVIwM24QrBqjTrhAA's https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22Talkin%27%20Loud%22 label, which released the "Crazy Love" single in May 2000 and the full-length Sincere that July. The album's quick, crisp production style earned him a Brit Award nomination as well as a Mercury Prize nomination. Cole released another album, 2003's Cut to the Chase with https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22Talkin%27%20Loud%22, before leaving the label in 2004. That year, he began releasing a steady stream of singles and EPs on https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22Prolific%22, issuing collaborations with Tubby T, https://open.spotify.com/artist/7k9T7lZlHjRAM1bb0r9Rm3, and Elisabeth Troy (who had previously sung on "Crazy Love"). During this time, he remixed artists such as https://open.spotify.com/artist/6Q192DXotxtaysaqNPy5yR, https://open.spotify.com/artist/3DiDSECUqqY1AuBP8qtaIa, and https://open.spotify.com/artist/4iHNK0tOyZPYnBU7nGAgpQ, took his DJ set on the road, and composed music for television ad campaigns. His own Riddim EP appeared in 2010. Over the next several years, he co-wrote songs with https://open.spotify.com/artist/0lwmhJGJcTgbcY4bnXGDgj and https://open.spotify.com/artist/2wY79sveU1sp5g7SokKOiI, remixed tracks by https://open.spotify.com/artist/4ScCswdRlyA23odg9thgIO and https://open.spotify.com/artist/3m38ZSwkLdeBDUhdGnFPrn, and produced tracks for https://open.spotify.com/artist/0gusqTJKxtU1UTmNRMHZcv and https://open.spotify.com/artist/5EUdiv20t58GCS09VMKk7M while also finding time to release his own music on the Panoramic EP. https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22Lobster%20Boy%20Records%22 issued the single "Alcatraz" in 2016. The following year, he returned with "Shelter" featuring https://open.spotify.com/artist/0hDjKSKjl1DC7ovYTDJHe8, the https://open.spotify.com/artist/1cwlYsgHBYvLzT4C24AliQ collaboration "Interbass," and the solo single "Pictures in My Head." The material kept on coming in 2018 with the https://open.spotify.com/artist/1HMhQzj2QXxR40zGDdaK6y collaboration "Soak It Up," the Foundations EP, and "Waking Up" featuring https://open.spotify.com/artist/5pDjmC5mRl7vDJhsjVwNfk. 2020 saw Cole release his first album in 17 years, one he had always wanted to make. Inspired by his early classical background, Presents Madrugada, released on https://open.spotify.com/search/label%3A%22Decca%22, was an instrumental album of piano and strings with a soaring, transcendent, filmic quality. In 2021, Cole collaborated with https://open.spotify.com/artist/4WN5naL3ofxrVBgFpguzKo and Josh Barry on the single "Remember Their Names." ~ Heather Phares & Paul Simpson About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Boris on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 7/11/22 About Boris - It’s all about the music. New York stalwart and beloved DJ, Boris, lives by that statement each and every day. He is a man wearing many hats; one as a touring DJ, another as a producer dynamo and lastly as a label boss of Transmit Recordings. A career forged over decades of long nights in the Big Apple’s most revered rooms. From the infamous Roxy to Crobar to the once dominating Pacha NY on 46th Street, Boris maintained a following so devout, so loyal they were truly ‘Believers’. Pioneering a music movement in a city filled with those who have so little time to pay attention, Boris has been a production powerhouse when not performing for the masses. He’s been tapped by industry leaders such as Carl Cox for his label Intec, Dubfire for his label Sci-Tec, Paco Osuna and his Mindshake records, amongst countless others. His ability behind the decks and in the studio has not only made him a New York favorite, but his music has taken him places all around the world ranging from the shores of Playa Del Carmen to the magical White Isle known as Ibiza. Known to many as the ‘DJ’s DJ’, Boris has had the career most DJs can only wish to have. The trends may change but the New York native has stayed true to his drum driven sounds and created his own niche in the wide and vast world of electronic music. Taking bits and pieces from every part of the globe he visits, Boris always maintains a piece of home in his music. Even though his career spans nearly three decades, the journeyman DJ has yet to falter. We currently find him playing leading to destinations across the globe and his music is in high demand with forthcoming releases of many sought after labels, Boris will is constantly on the tips of the younger generation’s tongue. Why? Because talent, like wine, gets better with age.

John Tejada on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/28/22 About John Tejada - Normally associated with his peers in techno from Detroit, Europe and elsewhere, John Tejada has embraced electronic music as a personal frontier, expanding on his resume as a techno recording artist as producer, remixer, DJ, and label owner. Known for crafting a brand of subtle, musical techno, his recorded output ranges across tempo and genre lines, from chilled out affairs with spacious arrangements to pulsating, densely layered, deeply energetic tracks that work magnificently in the hands of DJs as well as on the home stereo. John Tejada was born in Vienna, Austria on April 21, 1974. His parents, both professional classical musicians (his mother an opera singer and father a conductor) began his early piano training at the age of 4. In the summer of 1982, John would move with his mother to her place of birth, Los Angeles. It was that summer at the age of 8 another instrument would catch his eye, the drums. Teaching himself to play along to classic rock music, John quickly learned his way around the drum set (an instrument he still plays to this day in his I’m Not A Gun project). Everything changed however when he got his first taste of early 80’s hip hop music. The impact of those early productions and electronic experimentation was very strong. Soon after, at the age of 12 John was given his first set of turntables and a mixer. He wanted to figure out everything he was hearing DJs do at that time. His first gigs came at the age of 12 for his own school, DJing his school dances. Soon after his fascination with DJing began his fascination with production began. Just as he was completely determined to learn the tricks of local DJs, he now wanted to know how the music was made. His introduction came around the age of 15, when he acquired his first looping delay. Soon after came his first workstation, an Ensoniq EPS sampler. This opened up a whole new world of possibilities. John spent every part of his day honing his craft. In 1991, while still in high school, John was already recording his first productions. He was also involved in college radio, even though he was just a junior in high school. John had a spot on “The Fly ID Show” with DJ Rob One. John produced the show’s first record for Rob and also went on to do some hip hop production on Ruthless Records. It was during this time that he met his long time collaborator and best friend Arian Leviste. The two met at a hip hop recording session in ‘91. John, already tired of the hip hop scene and where it was going, spent hours talking to Arian about acid house, techno, ambient house and everything they seemed to have in common. The two agreed they would meet weekly to compose material. It took some time before they would release any music, but in 1994 they pressed up their own single and that started a chain reaction of releases. John and Arian during this time also were accepted into CalArts' (California Institute for the Arts) electronic music program, but both decided not to attend to hone their craft on their own. Soon after, John enjoyed a series of releases on European labels like A13, Multiplex, and Generations R&S. In the fall of 1996 he started his own label, Palette Recordings as an outlet to release his own productions without having anyone tell him how to do it. The demand for his music continued to grow and labels such as Ferox, Sino, Mosaic, Immigrant, Plug Research, Pokerflat and 7th City all released Tejada 12”s. John began traveling internationally in ‘97 to showcase his DJ skills around the globe, traveling to more than 25 countries and playing various clubs and festivals around the world. Festivals included Movement (formerly The Detroit Electronic Music Festival), Sonar Festival (in Spain and Tokyo), Dance Valley (Netherlands), Sync Festival (Greece), Mutek Mexico, as well as internationally known spaces such as Fabric (London), Yellow (Tokyo), Rex Club (Paris), The Walt Disney Concert Hall (Los Angeles) and many more. In 1999, John met classical jazz guitarist Takeshi Nishimoto, which was the beginning of another musical frontier. The two had a similar meeting as John and Arian had years before and began talking about making music. The project I’m Not A Gun was born and signed soon after to Berlin-based City Center Offices. This project would bring back John’s own training as a drummer while also trying his hand at the guitar. The project became a mix of John’s own electronic productions along with Takeshi’s professional guitar playing and John’s drumming. The project has enjoyed great reviews and success the world over and the duo has performed live in LA, Japan and Germany. In the summer of 2004, John would - in one week - create the two songs that would catapult his techno career. The classic “Sweat On The Walls,” and “Mono On Mono” were released almost at the same time on two different labels. “Sweat” was released on Pokerflat and “Mono On Mono” on Palette. Together the two records sold over 23,000 copies on vinyl. This lead to the equally successful follow up singles “Paranoia,” “Mind Bend” (with more recent collaborator and Palette-signing, Justin Maxwell) “Voyager,” and “The End Of It All.” With dozens of singles and remixes to his credit, he has also produced full-length albums for Playhouse, Palette, Plug Research, deFocus, Moods and Grooves, Immigrant and A13.

ENDO on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/27/22 About ENDO - There are individuals who are early adopters, then there are those who are innovators. Mike Henderson aka ENDO falls into the latter category. A ubiquitous figure in electronic dance music for going on two decades, ENDO is a musician, a DJ, a teacher, an inventor, and a visionary. A graduate of Berklee College of Music with a degree in electronic music production and music synthesis and a lifelong drummer, ENDO’s technical know-how is an inherent gift. He serves as a product specialist for the always innovative audio technology company iZotope and as an online DJ instructor for his alma mater, Berklee Online. He has an ongoing relationship with Native Instruments as a certified Native specialist, having trained the likes of Carl Cox, Grandmaster Flash, Danny Tenaglia, and David Morales on Traktor. He has contributed greatly to the accuracy of Mixed In Key’s algorithm. He is also the co-founder of the evolutionary mapping platform, MIDI Monsters, and the booking platform, AGNT. “My sets are all harmonic progression,” says ENDO. “Every song is in key, or intentionally out of key, modulated harmonically. You can subliminally play with people’s emotions with harmonic mixing. There’s all this tension, then you give them the harmonic release. You have to tell your story. You have to find the songs that speak to you. That’s the art form, the intuition of a good DJ.” ENDO has unleashed his patented brand of harmonic mixing at events across the globe including: Pacha, Marquee, and Cielo in New York, Sound in Los Angeles, Guvernment and Coda in Toronto, Stereo in Montreal, Spybar in Chicago, Heart in Miami, Sands in Ibiza, Club Vertigo in Costa Rica, as well as BPM Festival in Mexico and Electric Festival in Aruba. He has played alongside John Digweed, DJ Craze, Roc Raida, Victor Calderone, Danny Tenaglia, Carl Cox, Chus & Ceballos, Eric Prydz, to name just a few, and perhaps given them a much-sought-after technical tip or two in the process.

Heiko Laux on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/24/22

Fri, 24 Jun 2022 17:30:00 +0000

Heiko Laux on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/24/22 About Heiko Laux - As the youngest of 5 children, Heiko Laux was always the rebel in the family challenging norms even in his youth. To this day his stimulating approach to elec- tronic music has showcased his ability to flutter between genres with various ali- ases, projects and sounds. Founded in 1994 by Heiko Laux, Kanzleramt was Germany’s premier techno label releasing some of the freshest sounds of that time. 20 years later the label is still continuously testing boundaries in contempo- rary techno, breaching the gaps between techno, trance and minimal. Since the release of Heiko’s last album on Kanzleramt in 2006 he has explored different sonic landscapes ranging from classic techno sounds to deep techno by releasing on various labels. His work on Truesoul, Figure and Soma all feature collaborations with Amsterdam-based producer Steve Rachmad. Other labels include Rejected, Suol, Tronic and Uturn, which dips into the realm of hypnotic techno. In the past year Heiko has put out two EPs on Josh Wink’s label, Ovum, each one worked as collaboration. The first release with Diego Hostettler was true to his own style as well as to Ovum as the tracks will excite any dance floor. However, most recently his EP with Alexander Lukat on Ovum has been the number one seller for Ovum on Beatport since its release in October 2013. For Heiko Laux inspiration can spring up from any source. Constantly living in the moment, capturing emotions and reactions from the world around him as his productions illustrate the beauty of exotic lands and galactic landscapes. Once in the moment there is no going back, only moving forward and only creation. In January 2014 the twentieth anniversary of Kanzleramt was celebrated at Berlin’s renowned Berghain and since then Heiko has been requested all around the world, from Los Angles to Sweden to Tokyo, to represent and showcase his labels works. The release of Fernweh will mark a great accomplishment for Heiko Laux as it will be his fifth solo album for Kanzleramt. From starting out in 1994 in the heat of the uprising techno, Heiko has experienced many movements in the music- sphere however he will always play an important role and symbolize of the glob- ally celebrated golden age of techno. With no interest in remaking albums or dwelling on the past, Heiko is constantly moving forward, finding new inspiration. Motivated by his undoubted passion, he will continue to produce music to fill the void in contemporary techno.

Swedish Egil on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/23/22

Swedish Egil on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/23/22 About Swedish Egil - Egil just wanted to groove… To get the full story of GROOVE RADIO, you have to know about the man behind the groove, Swedish Egil. For nearly four decades, Egil has been bringing fresh music to the world’s ears, starting with 10 years as a DJ at KROQ-FM in the 80’s where he helped break many artists into the mainstream including New Order, Kraftwerk, Depeche Mode, UB40 and Front 242. Always on the pulse of new and exciting global sounds, Egil spearheaded much of the music and the bands that formed the Punk, New Wave, and eventually the underground Dance movements of the early 90’s. Egil then accepted a rare opportunity to develop his Music Director skills at the now legendary MARS-FM in Los Angeles – the station that broke techno / rave music on U.S. radio with The Orb, Prodigy, and Moby. In 1992, Egil began to focus on the future beats of club culture when the first radio broadcast of his own GROOVE RADIO INTERNATIONAL program was heard from the Arizona desert. The feedback was immediate. Listeners began to demand this new electronic sound, this breath of fresh air and positive vibes. GROOVE RADIO soon became the catalyst for electronic music’s exposure across the entire states. It was the first media outlet in the US to cater wholly to the underground community – bringing DJs, artists, and personalities from all over the world to play, spin, or just share moments of their lives across the airwaves. With early presence on the internet back in 1995, GROOVE RADIO was the first to feature global webcasts with artists such as Future Sound of London and Orbital. This true commitment to championing the art of the DJ has helped bring into the GROOVE RADIO studio such talents as The Chemical Brothers, Daft Punk, Fatboy Slim, Paul Oakenfold, Pete Tong, Paul van Dyk, Sasha, John Digweed, Basement Jaxx, Groove Armada, Faithless, LTJ Bukem, Dimitri From Paris, BT, Roni Size & Reprazent, Carl Cox, Roger Sanchez, and many more. Since its inception, GROOVE RADIO has celebrated over 2500 syndicated shows, launched the first 24/7 radio station in Los Angeles dedicated to DJ culture, became a top 5 internet stations in the world, and has released an acclaimed series of GROOVE RADIO PRESENTS recordings. With a worldwide audience at GROOVERADIO.COM, Egil maintains his vision and the promise from years ago to make digital dance music available to the masses.

The Sandman on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/22/22 About The Sandman - I started DJing in 2014, inspired by Mark Knight, Metodi Hristov and Coyu. My interest grew from House, and expanded out to techno with a melodic side. Some of my favorite labels are Suara & Set About labels.“As a DJ there is no better feeling in the world than controlling a dance floor and hearing that bass drum kick through the speakers.”I’ve been told I have a knack for picking out the lesser heard tunes that will get the crowd going, I love finding tracks that other DJs might not have. I have played at various locations around the UK and Ibiza including a headline set at Ibiza Rocks. I also do a podcast where I get on a guest DJ to talk about their musical background and their career, which has had guests such as Rowetta, Sam Young and Tony Romanello, to name a few.

Jesse Rhys Cannon on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/22/22

Wed, 22 Jun 2022 20:00:00 +0000

Jesse Rhys Cannon on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/22/22 About Jesse Rhys Cannon - I somehow got my first work being paid in the music business when I was 15. Since then I’ve managed to work in nearly every facet of the music business. If a stranger happens to know who I am, they usually know me from being lucky enough to have worked on records in various capacities with bands like The Cure, Animal Collective, The Misfits, The Dillinger Escape Plan, Brand New, Limp Bizkit, Man Overboard, Somos, Basement, Kevin Devine, Weird Al Yankovic, NOFX and The Menzingers. I’m also known for writing the book Get More Fans: The DIY Guide To The New Music Business, which has gone on to be one of the most popular books on the music business as well as the best selling book on creativity in music Processing Creativity: The Tools, Practices And Habits Used To Make Music You’re Happy With. I also host two podcasts, Off The Record and Noise Creators and write articles on the music business for various sites like Alternative Press and Party Smasher Inc. along with a handful of others. But that doesn’t explain how I got to do all of that and that’s what I’m supposed to explain here. When I was 15 I started to get paid for doing live sound at concerts and spoken word events. Two years later, a hilarious and fun guy by the name of Stork liked my mixes and invited me to engineer live performances at the world-renowned freeform radio station WFMU. There I was lucky enough to work for 9 years recording acts like The Magnetic Fields, Spoon, The Sea and The Cake, Olivia Tremor Control and a couple hundred others. Because of this I started doing live sound at local clubs The Pipeline and Connections. In time, I started booking shows for the company that booked those clubs and the legendary Coney Island High in NYC. Somewhere in this time I got my first credit on a record singing back up vocals on a song with Joey & Dee Dee Ramone, which I still question if I’ve ever topped. Those jobs gave me enough courage to put on my own concerts, and be crazy enough to think I knew what I was doing enough to start recording local bands. But all of this would happen at night, so I needed a day job. I then started working at my local punk record store (Let It Rock), which then qualified me to work at Soapbox Records on St. Marks Place in NYC. This was great since it also housed esteemed indie label Go-Kart Records where I ran the record store and did publicity. While I love marketing, PR is way too social for me and I preferred talking to creative people instead of cranky zine editors. I was also writing for the esteemed zines of the day like Tape Op, Punk Planet and Maximum RockNRoll. So I decided to stop doing live sound and working at record labels in order to focus on record production. My boss at Go Kart was kind enough to give me a recommendation to Alan Douches at West West Side Music, who happens to be the engineer with the most credits in all of music history. At West West Side I got to learn how to engineer and master from the best in the business. Not only did I get to work under Alan’s amazing talent, the best producers in the business were coming by every day (J. Robbins, John Agnello, Brian McTernan) as well as the coolest bands around seemed to walk in the door every day (Fatboy Slim, Fall Out Boy, LCD Soundsystem, Brand New). In that time, I met Steve Evetts (one of my favorite producers growing up) and got to work with him on great records by The Dillinger Escape Plan, Senses Fail, Saves The Day and Say Anything. He then brought me to work with Ross Robinson (my other favorite producer growing up) and I got to work with The Cure & Limp Bizkit among others under him. While all that was happening, two other significant parts of the story happened. I harnessed my own production skills and they became so in demand I started my own studio Cannon Found Soundation, which I still run to this day working with hundreds of bands a year. In that time these two interests collided and I decided to start a blog on the things other blogs weren’t writing about in music and wanted to show all the secrets being hidden since that’s the most punk thing you can do and punk is the closest thing I have to a religion. This blog became Musformation, a blog I continued through 2015, when I decided to diversify my writing across sites with bigger audiences. The blog’s music business articles seemed to be very popular and really resonated, so I decided to go with it. I started helping and then managing the two most promising bands I was producing — Man Overboard and Transit, so I could experiment with the ideas I was writing about. These ideas turned out to be right and both signed with one of the biggest indies in the world (Rise Records) and built massive fan bases under my watch. That was fun and all, but managing and producing records full-time do not mix. So those bands went their way and I kept producing records. A lot of bands asked me to manage them, but I like sleep and hate stress so I decided against that option. I instead put out my book Get More Fans, so every band could learn everything I did working with them and researching the new music business. Because of that book I got a reputation for knowing music tech, which led me to getting approached to do the podcast, Off The Record and form Noise Creators, a service I co-founded that helps connect musicians with the best producers in music today. I now host Atlantic Records Inside The Album where I make audio documentaries on the creative processes of some of the best artists in music like Dashboard Confessional, nothing.nowhere, Jason Mraz and Vance Joy. In 2017 I released Processing Creativity to much praise, I am presently working on a bunch of conversations I want to have on how we change the way people create music to reflect when creative science says enhances creativity. I am trying to change the way records are made and always looking for bands who are interested in doing something new and interesting. I am presently producing, mixing and mastering records 7 days a week and developing a documentary. In 2019 I relaunched Musformation as a YouTube channel to start distributing the knowledge I’ve acquired to a new audience. As well I relaunched MusforMGMT where I am handling marketing and label services to established artists. In 2020 I took

They share how the music of The Boss has helped them to celebrate, mourn, cope, heal and love. I’ve spoken with Springsteen bloggers, tech wizards, and even former members of the E Street Band.

Martin Eyerer on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/14/22

Tue, 14 Jun 2022 17:00:00 +0000

Martin Eyerer on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/14/22 About Martin Eyerer - For more than 30 years Martin Eyerer has traveled heavily around the globe as a DJ and producer. His more than 150 releases on the hottest labels like Renaissance, My Favorite Robot, Get Physical, Rejected order on his own imprint Kling Klong are bought and played on continents from Australia, Asia to North and South America and of course Europe. Countless sales and other chart positionings as well as media feedback prove that impressively. As a producer Martin has something to show as well: Gold Albums in UK and Australia and a top 3 US Billboard chart ranking have a great effect here. As a mixing and mastering engineer Martin has run a respectable analog studio for 15 years, which has an established standing especially in the electronic music scene. After moving from Stuttgart to Berlin in August 2012 Martin and his partners Jade Souaid and Tassilo Ippenberger opened together the Riverside Studios – a 2000 m2 complex in the heart of Berlin. With direct river views and the neighborhood to clubs like Berghain, Watergate, Kater Blau, Tresor or Weekend it became one of the hotspots of Berlin’s music scene. Of course Martin has his space there, too. On 100 m2 he brought his studio to the next level. The restoration of his legendary Amek M 3000 Console that was formerly owned by Pink Floyd in the seventies completed it surely. By the end of 2013 Martin Eyerer startet to work on his 3rd longplayer including interesting and already confirmed corporations withPrincess Superstar, Abby, Knixx and Ruede Hagelstein. End of 2014 the album – Struktur – was released on Martin‘s very own label Kling Klong and received huge feedback from the music scene. A few more releases on labels like Get Physical, Saved and Rejected followed the 4 singles of the album in 2015 and a global tour that lead Martin once more around the world. In 2016 releases on my favorite robot, Bedrock, Danse UK, Suara and Kling Klong were released and played all over the globe. The most successful one was Martin Eyerer & Ackermann feat Craig Walker – former singer from the band Archive. Originals and the kaiserdisco remix hit the Beatport Top 20. 2017 was full of successful releases: An EP on Second State, 2 new Kling Klongs and the final Album remix package by Tobi Neumann, Oliver Dollar and AFFKT already kept Martin's name going. Further releases on Bedrock and Culprit L.A. and his latest imprint he started with Ackermann named ignite. In 2018 Martin focused more on his management side at Riverside Studios Berlin. Besides its established networks of musicians and producers, he started to drive the company with a music and tech related side, which affected the way he chose further collaborations. 2020 obviously was a very special year for artists and producers under the Covid 19 pandemic. Martin – meanwhile also working as CEO for Factory Berlin – set up with his team many collaborations between artists and tech people. International artists from music but also other disciplines started to work on AR/VR and mixed reality formats. Technology and music and art together is the new thing Martin extended his horizon to. Bringing his company Riverside Studios Berlin together with the Factory Berlin ecosystem led to a very successful path for both. On the studio side Martin was active too: While working on his new studio album (expected to be finished in Jan 2021) he released a few new records on labels like bar25, Kling Klong, Ignite or still hot Berlin. His weekly podcast /Radioshow is broadcasted in more than 20 countries and has a reach of 700,000 listeners every week. http://www.martineyerer.de http://www.facebook.com/martineyerer http://www.soundcloud.com/martineyerer About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Ayokay on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/7/22

Tue, 07 Jun 2022 21:00:00 +0000

Ayokay on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/7/22 About Ayokay - Alex O'Neill, aka Ayokay, is a Los Angeles-based DJ/producer known for his effusive pop, hip-hop, and R&B-influenced EDM. He scored two Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs hits, including 2016's "Kings of Summer" with Quinn XCII and 2017's "The Shine" with Chelsea Cutler before releasing his debut album, 2018's In the Shape of a Dream. An EP, We Come Alive, arrived in 2019, followed by the 2021 single "I Still Need You." A native of Grosse Pointe, Michigan, Ayokay first began making music in his senior year of high school, collaborating with longtime friend Mike Temrowski (aka Quinn XCII). The duo continued to develop their sound after high school, with O'Neill attending the University of Michigan and Temrowski Michigan State University. In 2016 they released the single "Kings of Summer," which was quickly adopted as Texas Rangers outfielder Ian Desmond's "walk-up" song. The track took off (reaching number 16 on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart), and helped land the duo a deal with Columbia Records. Around this time, Ayokay relocated to Los Angeles to focus on his career. A year later he delivered the solo single "Shine," featuring singer Chelsea Cutler. It cracked the Top 50 of Billboard's Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart. In 2018, he issued his full-length debut, In the Shape of a Dream, which included the singles "Sleepless Nights" featuring Nightly, and "Stay with Me" featuring Jeremy Zucker. More tracks followed, including "Things Fall Apart," "Move On," and "Sleeping Next to You," all of which arrived in 2019. Also that year, he released the EP, We Come Alive. The single "I Still Need You" arrived in September 2021. ~ Matt Collar, Rovi About The DJ Sessions - “The DJ Sessions” is a Twitch/Mixcloud "Featured Partner” live streaming/podcast series featuring electronic music DJ’s/Producers via live mixes/interviews and streamed/distributed to a global audience.

Hausman and Lumynesynth on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/7/22

Tue, 07 Jun 2022 17:00:00 +0000

Hausman and Lumynesynth on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 6/7/22 About Hausman - Hausman (a.k.a. Devon Ausman) has certainly made a name for himself in the trance and progressive house scene since his debut EP in 2016. Taking influence from the sounds of deep, groovy house; melodic, uplifting trance; and dark, gritty techno, he aims to make music which blends genres in unexpected ways. With a keen ear for catchy melodic content and captivating harmonic progressions, he seeks to craft his compositions into musical and textural journeys that intend to captivate the listener and spark an emotional connection. His tracks feature heavy basslines with electro-house influences, immersive atmospheres, and most importantly, beautiful chords and melodies that will catch your ear. Despite his diversity of sound and avoiding restricting himself to the constraints of any one genre, you can always tell when a Hausman track comes on. Devon began his journey with a solo release on Intricate Records. In 2017 he released with Myon’s Ride Recordings and snatched up triple support from Above & Beyond on Group Therapy, which thrust him into the scene’s spotlight. Since then, he’s released on labels such as Monstercat, Enhanced, and Armada, remixed tracks by Mat Zo, Dezza, Marsh, and Elevven, and garnered support from Armin van Buuren, Cosmic Gate, Tritonal, and many more. His remix of Problems for Mat Zo & Olan won 3rd place in the remix competition, and was released on Anjunabeats in 2021. Hausman quickly followed up his Anjuna debut with the hugely popular “Control”, and has plans to release more original tracks on Anjunabeats, Monstercat, and Enhanced in 2022. As a graduate of Berklee College of Music with a degree in Electronic Production and Design, Devon has been exposed to a wealth of knowledge encompassing recording, production, engineering, sound design, and programming. While his current digital audio workstation of choice is Ableton, he has a great deal of experience working with Pro Tools, Logic, Max, and can find his way around any DAW if needed. He’s worked on many projects in various sectors of production, including recording live instruments, audio post-production, scoring, mixing, mastering, as well as music composition and arranging within a DAW. About Lumynesynth - Massachusetts native Lumynesynth (Beth Faria) has been singing since before she could talk. She specializes in soothing vocal lines and lush harmonies, drawing from her roots in a cappella and musical theatre. Before starting her singer-songwriter Lumynesynth project, Beth studied Contemporary Writing and Production at Berklee College of Music in Boston. She devoted her time there to studying everything and anything having to do with vocals – recording engineering, writing, arranging, teaching, direction, and anything else she could get her hands on. Following her time at Berklee, she worked as a Production Apprentice with prominent a cappella production company The Vocal Company based out of New York before branching out and discovering her love for songwriting. Lumynesynth has had notable releases on labels such as Monstercat Silk, Colorize, and When We Dip XYZ. Her music has been featured on Colorscapes Volume 3, Silk music Showcase 07, and Tritonia 318, with support from artists including BT, Dezza, Jacob Henry, Tom Fall, A.M.R, and many more. While Beth currently works primarily as a singer-songwriter in EDM, she also spends time recording, mixing, arranging, and producing a variety of other genres including pop, classic rock, marching band and drum corps, jazz ensembles, classic and contemporary choirs and a cappella groups, library music, and more.

Alan Cross on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 5/25/22

Wed, 25 May 2022 21:00:00 +0000

Alan Cross on the Virtual Sessions presented by The DJ Sessions 5/25/22 About Alan Cross - I’ve always been a geek. Just ask anyone I went to school with or any of the girls I tried to date. My obsession with music began at age six when my grandmother gave me a transistor radio—an old Lloyds—which spawned an all-consuming fascination with things that came over airwaves. A few years later, my uncle—who moonlighted by servicing jukeboxes—kick-started my record collection by dumping a box of old 7-inch singles on me one Sunday afternoon. I was hooked. In October 1980, I got my start at CKUW at the University of Winnipeg, which, at the time, was a closed-circuit station. Our broadcast range was limited to one hallway and one cafeteria. After graduating I ended up at CJRL in Kenora, a 1,000 watt AM station that broadcast to the people and wildlife of Northwestern Ontario. From there, it was on to KX-96/Brandon and Q94-FM/Winnipeg before I ended up at CFNY (renamed The Edge) in October 1986. I’d first heard about the place through Rush’s “The Spirit of Radio” when I was still in high school and remember thinking to myself “Wouldn’t it be cool to work there one day?” After fifteen years as a CFNY/Edge in a variety of announcer gigs, I moved to program director at Y95 in Hamilton, overseeing, in part, a frequency change that made the station Y108. In 2004, I started a four-year stint as the station’s Program Director (where I was somehow named Canada’s PD of the year in 2005, 2006, and 2008), my latent geekiness once again came to the fore and I became Senior Program Director for Corus Interactive, the online arm of Corus Radio. My last project with Corus was as Head Curator of ExploreMusic, a truly unique online and on-air feature dedicated to music discovery. Oh, and that radio show. The Ongoing History of New Music debuted in February 1993 and since then it’s…well, it’s taken on a life of its own. There have been over 720 one-hour episodes making it (I think) the longest-running music documentary in Canada and one of the longest in North America—if not the world! When that (temporarily) ended, I started a new show called The Secret History of Rock which ran for 100 two-hour episodes on stations across the country. (I own the rights to all those shows. I’m hanging on to those in hopes I can syndicate them globally. Anyone interested?) After leaving The Edge/Corus in June 2011, I spent a couple of years working with various broadcasters: Astral/Bell, Jazz-FM, Pattison, and NewCap. Then I hooked up with Central Ontario Broadcasting, the Barrie, Ontario-based company that owns Indie 88 in Toronto. I was part of the team that launched the station and became the voice of Indie for a year. On August 1, 2014, I moved back to Corus as a sort of consultant/strategist–and The Ongoing History was revived as of September 1 of that year. Then, on March 1, 2015, I co-founded the Music Technology Group and Event series with Andrew Dick and Nathalia Ribeiro. The group is for anyone who is interested in connecting with veterans in the Music and Technology industries and those who simply love music and want to learn more about how technology has shaped the way we consume, create, and monetize music. The Music Technology events take place in Toronto, every 4-5 weeks. The group is free to join and the events are free to attend. I had a weekly national newspaper column in the Metro commuter paper (since gone bust), four published reference works on alt-rock, and four audiobooks under the banner of The Alan Cross Guide to Alternative Rock. Those books are also available chapter-by-chapter through iTunes. Just search for my name under “audiobooks.” Oh, and there’s a children’s book called The Science of Song. These days, I write a weekly column for GlobalNews.ca. In January 2015, I co-founded Major League Mixes, a company that assists sports teams in getting their music mix right for their games. Our first client was a good one: The Toronto Maple Leafs. Learn more about Major League Mixes and all that we do here. Too bad that thing folded due to circumstances beyond our control. What else? I was a script editor for the documentary Who the F@#k is Arthur Fogel. There was ExploreMusic-TV on Bite-TV and Aux. The inflight audio programming I did for Air Canada for years. The consulting. Working for the now-defunct Songza (I was disgarded when it was bought by Google). The various TV appearances. The official biographies I wrote for rock bands. Appearances in dozens of documentaries. The magazine articles. The narrations. The voicework, The consulting. The speaking gigs and lecture series. The Science of Rock’n’Roll travelling museum exhibit. The traveling to music festivals and conferences around the world (not to mention other places for pleasure and sheer curiosity). And did I mention that I hosted Reach for the Top for one season? Jeezus, no wonder we don’t have kids. Oh… I almost forgot check out my Audiobooks and new children’s book on Amazon!
