Artists

 

Dave Pezzner is an accomplished and internationally respected producer and composer of various styles of electronic music. As one half of powerhouse duo Jacob London, Dave has credited over 15 vinyl releases and over 30 remixes shipped worldwide.

In addition to his work as an electronica artist, Dave is a composer for television, advertising and games and has composed works for American Idol, The Discovery Channel, Nordstrom, and T-Mobile.

Phil Kieran is well known and respected as one of the most innovative, futuristic and dedicated techno producers in modern history. With over 100 intensely unique and effective releases on a whole host of quality labels including Cocoon, Novamute, Kingsize, Skint, Yoshitoshi, Num, Soma, Flying Cabbage (his own label) and more, Kieran is an established artist in the EDM world with clout and impact. Prepping for the debut release of his first full length album entitled “Shh” on superlabel Cocoon and rocking some of the finest venues in the world are just some of the current details on Phil Kieran’s latest agenda.

It's a rare occurrence when a DJ rises to international acclaim based on their pure skill behind the decks. Chris Finke is a perfect example of someone so talented in his ability to destroy dance floors that it landed him sets in some of the Worlds Premier clubs and events in a relatively quick time. Initially known for killing it with his 3 turntable sets, Chris has now embraced digital technology which has opened up even more possibilities. He is also the owner of Flux Recordings, a resident at the UK's No1 techno institution, "Atomic Jam", a true globe hopping international DJ force and well on the road to becoming an established production machine.

Berlin-based Stewart Walker is a restless innovator. After making a splash in the late nineties on definitive labels like Force Inc. and Tresor, he’s had an inestimable impact on the development of current club sounds, yet consistently chooses the less traveled road: working as live producer in a world of DJs; injecting emotion into functional electronic dance music; quietly building a label family of unclassifiable artists on his own imprint, Persona.

Burnski is an exciting, young artist for whom the future holds untold possibilities. By night, he holds down a DJ residency at one of the UK’s outstanding club nights and by day, he is a tireless and imaginative producer who, each day, rarely misses an opportunity to experiment with sounds from his subterranean studio bunker in the north of England.

 

Dave Brennan is one of the foremost stalwart veterans of the electronic dance music scene with a career old enough to legally drink in the United States. Since 1988 Brennan has launched an audio assault on our ears in some of the most premier clubs in the world. His classic “drink deep” EP on End recordings helped to launch his name to new heights before opening up his own new record label: Bombis recordings. An all around incredible deep-tech house DJ, producer and co label manager (with Paul Donton), Brennan is warming the techno engines back up for yet another amazing galactic adventure.

Plasmik is the brain child of two German brothers named Roman and Marcel Fritz. Raised on a diet of mid 90’s techno this classically trained duo joined up in 2006 to start their mission of world wide dance floor damage.  With refreshing releases on Connaisseur, Crosstown Rebels, Tsuba and more, one could accurately assess that the operation is going accord to plan. Plasmik represents an engaging cross breed between stripped down raw techno and tasteful artistic tech house bundled up in a nice package of atmosphere and funky low ends.

Max Cooper is one of the strongest stars to appear in the techno cosmos in recent years. Not only has Cooper enjoyed one of the fastest ascents into international heavyweight DJ status ever seen, but he also splits his electronic music life with a full time gig as a PHD genetics researcher. With over 50 music releases including his recent floor destroying "Harmonisch EP" on Traum Schallplatten, several epic residencies, and an international touring schedule, Max Cooper is quickly become an unstoppable DJ monstrosity to watch and whisper about in the middle of the night.

When it comes to functional and creative minimal techno no one has it quite as locked down as Mathias Schaffhauser. Label boss for Ware and well established DJ circuit veteran, Schaffhauser is renowned for his diverse and deep sound that slowly works your dancing physique into a pile of happy mush. In addition to working with Pan Pot, Dapayk Solo, Trentmoller, Alex Smoke and others, this techno connoisseur has been released on almost every label worth mentioning: including Poker Flat, Force Tracks, Treibstoff, Ladomat, Boxer, Mute, Budenzauber, Karatemusik and more.

Deepchild is the club and radio hardened moniker of one Rick Bull, an established deep tech house champion of the Australian variety with a penchant for turning out head warping and booty moving tunes. Luckily for us, and everyone else, Mr. Bull’s high standards bleed out onto all of his work, whether it be headlining with some of the worlds top techno/tech-house acts or putting out highly respectable and well considered original productions. Originality is the flavor of the day when Deepchild is in town, and with releases on BEEF records, Affin, Dieb Audio, Future Classic and more you know the light is just getting brighter.
