Samuel L Session is an undisputed techno legend as much as anyone else in the field. With over 19 years of experience in the game and some of the most prolific underground releases in techno history, SLS is a respected producer and renowned globe hopping DJ.

Harvey Mckay is one of techno’s up and coming superstars. After rising from obscurity to getting regular plays from Richie Hawtin and signing a two album/6 single deal with super quality label Soma, Mckay is on an indisputable propulsion upwards (must be his anti-gravity machine). Fresh from a massive showing at the decibel festival, we had to correspond by email because it’s too hot to be in the same room with this fledgling legend.

Prompt's career has been strapped to a rockship. His track evolve has hit the number 1 spot in Beatport's minimal techno section and was then nominated for best "Minimal Artist" and as "best Minimal song" with "Evolve" in 2009 (taking home one of the awards) and 3 nominations from DeejayMags in 2008 taking home "Artist with Most Downloads Awards".

Prompt has also gone around the world with his live set, playing at Sonar, Watergate and many other top tier techno parties and clubs. With additional releases on the way from a panoply of labels, this artist has an excellent track record and a bright future!

At a time when so much techno feels like endless variations on a played-out theme, it’s heartening to know that there are still a handful of artists, labels and DJs who can combine experience, skill and forward-looking ideals in style. Step forward Jeremy P. Caulfield, who amply ticks all of the above boxes.

Minimono was born in Florence in 1997 as a multimedia project that eveloved into by experimenting with different types of art; namely music installation, graphic design, and theatre performances. The collaboration between dj Fabio della Torre and the electronic producer Ennio Colaci started in 2004 with the intent of melting the musical experiences of both into fresh minimal techno productions with an oldschool house feeling.

Dapayk Solo (no relationship to Han) is one of the most creative and talented electronic music producers in the world today. Renowned for his ground breaking sound design and hip shattering grooves, Dapayk (aka Niklas Worgt) has been an under-rated monster on the scene for some time. Holed up in his ivory tower of quality, Dapayk runs Mo’s Ferry, RRygular, and Fenou and been released on Stil Vor Talent, DPK, Unfoundsound, Karlof and Resopal Schallware. When not touring the globe he is probably curling 850 kilos with one arm.

Moodymanc has been causing quite a stir amongst the house community of late.
Having previously released under the guise of Dubble D, Danny Ward now delivers
house bombs as Moodymanc that are being championed by the premier league of
DJ’s and music lovers.

Boris Brejcha combines his sound with a maximum of variety which has no peer. Each song is some kind of its own adventure. Once in a relation with elements of electro, break beats, IDM, or sometimes with small Ambient parts. Because of the constant demand for more details, quality and originality he is always a small step ahead.
