Aeron Aether ft. Catherine - Twilight (original mix) [Morphosis Records]
Aeron Aether (Gábor Kovács) is a Hungarian composer, producer and a “researcher-experimentalist” of electronic sound. Besides studying electrical engineering, he dedicated his whole life to composing and listening music, which he lives and breathes. Unfortunately he studied music for only a few years, where he learned the tricks of playing cello, but what really impressed him were the synthesizers, realizing he could achieve stunning extraterrestrial sounds with this instrument. Always being interested in unusual, non worldly things, all that is unique, special, what makes you travel to other worlds and create strong, effusive emotions in any direction. Aeron experimented with almost every electronic style of music during his life, but has a strong affection towards live orchestra and symphonic music, which influenced him deeply, as movie soundtracks are most dear to him. He assumed the name 'Aeron' after his last change of styles, and soon after his first release got out, he’s constantly getting remix requests, there was even a case when one of his productions got signed right after he started doing it, before anybody else heard it. His goal, is to produce an artist album in the near future, to assemble a semi electronic, semi live musical formation, composing soundtracks for films and continuously bringing more and more interesting music for us to enjoy.

Paul Harris & Obernik - The Take (EDX's Acapulco at night remix) [Harem Records]
Enormous Diverse Xample (of a genius) might not be an accurate but for sure a possible interpretation of the three letters EDX. Productive and successful for more than a decade, Italian native Artist, Producer, DJ, and multi-talent EDX, has been and still is a well known name in the dance since in and outside of his home base Switzerland. First time appearing in 1994 in the local dance scene as a mixer of various cassettes for then famous club Tarot, EDX climbed up the ladder of recognition, teaming up with Leon Klein and creating their project B2B as well as their own record label Club. Now after having a creative break for more than three years, EDX is back on the block with a huge impact!! EDX is without a doubt one of the biggest shooting stars of the worldwide house scene. Within only a very short period of time he became a worldwide acclaimed remixer. EDX is definitely the guy to watch after!

Giangi Cappai - Lagrima (Tribe B mix) [KULT]
“I’m a citizen of the world..!” , declares DJ Giangi Cappai, an everchanging dance musical chameleon, and with his best known alter-ego, "Alma Matris" is the embodiment of the darkest tribal vibe in the musical circuit. Under this pseudonym in 1997 he composed the Italian top 10 charting single "Musica Electrica/Rumore Chimico" and later, the hit song was reissued on the NY-based label *69 records, projecting Giangi among the tribal heavyweights of the world. The follow-up single, "Rapido", in its first week topped the world charts and conquered even the fiercest dancefloors, being played by some of the best known DJ booths in the world.. and now "Rapido" is a regular party event in Amsterdam! Best club compilations and fiercest dj sets world wide are full of Giangi’s most famous tribal dark grooves, (try to find the super robbed "Alma Matris Tribe Tool" e.p.), and Giangi’s portfolio remix includes Donna Blakely, Ceevox, MADONNA, Lula, and many others..
Julie Thompson - It Only Hurts (club mix) [Magik Muzik]
“Being a slightly over zealous twenty something year old, with a philosophy to always follow my instinct, life as a musician has thrown me into a land faraway from my roots. I always thought that maybe I was a little crazy by jumping in the deep end, giving up everything to follow my career and moving to Germany, but now after some time, I know I was and believe I still am! However, I have always flown by the seat of my pants (I quote a dear friend) so why on earth should I stop now. What would life be without taking risks and I am a huge believer in them especially to gain any kind of true fulfilment within this nonsensical life! So I guess the more challenging the better!! (Ever the cynical optimist!) Therefore, and Ill keep this short for I AM the worlds longest storyteller (chatterbox or whatever), the big move to Germany has had great consequences for me. Although I have been learning this trade (so they say!) ie, singing, song writing and playing guitar, performing in clubs, bars, theatres etc, with some fantastic people in England, I have learnt so much about myself, my natural musical direction and type of musicians I want to work and surround myself with, during this German musical journey. The adventure of engrossing a new cultural, unfamiliar environment, coupled with the development of new relationships has inspired and enabled me to write songs with honest, real life experience. Some of these experiences have been incredibly rewarding and some, at times, have seen me hurtling towards what seemed to be the depths of hell itself!! (Ok this may seem a little extreme but it fuels me to keep on writing!!) But, I have also learnt to live by three main rules, not only in this business but through life itself, to ALWAYS be honest, dont hold back, and never compromise your inner voice, and this I think filters through in my songs too. However, after spending some time in the studio recording the new album and feeling like a caged bird about to burst, I am really looking forward to hitting the stage again. The crazy people that the band and I met during last years mini tour across Germany had such a dedication to music and having fun that was so overwhelming, it blew us away, and keeps us coming back for more! This is why the live scene can be so rewarding and exhilarating, and one of the main reasons I am now eager to blast back on the scene to rock the crowds with new material and meet you all once again. So to all the old and new friends. enjoy the new songs, and watch this space for up and coming gigs in the next 6-12mths. Keep in touch!” - Julie

M.Rodriguez - My Love (Mike Ivy & Dave Rose remix) [Coraza Recordings]
In an industry inundated with people of questionable talent, it's refreshing to know that there is someone out there with the ability and presence it takes to make a mark; that man is none other than Mike Ivy. Whether he's spinning for crowds around the world or churning out dance music hits through his other monikers (Ivy & Rose, MaD House Muzik Productions, FM and SL5) this man is destined for great things and the public has taken notice. Born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, Mike Ivy developed a passion for music at an early age, which was cultivated by mix shows he would catch on the radio. His passion would soon turn into pure obsession as he began to perfect what would be known as his sound: an eclectic mix of tribal beats, equal parts funky, progressive, hard and sexy. His objective is to take the listener on a ride; a musical journey fusing each element of his sound into one spellbinding rhythm, resulting in crowded dance floors and sweat soaked club goers. Presently, Mike Ivy finds himself dividing his time between the rigors of life on the road and working in the studio. He has been heard playing live to house music fanatics on radio stations like WNYU 89.1 with their Friday Night Express Mix Show and 105.3's own House Nation Mix Show. To boot, he's also played guest spots on the live internet radio show NewYorkCityUnderground where he was heard playing for thousands of rabid fans. Additionally, on top of his already established monthly residencies, Ivy nabbed one of the most sought after gigs for a DJ: a show on Sirius Satellite Radio. With both confirmed and pending DJ gigs on the horizon and a slew of records ready to drop, it's not a wonder why his name is on everyone's lips.

Technically gifted, Dean’s enthusiastic style has the power to destroy crowds with his high pace, high energy crowd pleasing sets over 3 turntables.
Steve Angello - Isabel (Kim Fais Tiptone Noddle Mafia remix) [Netswork Records]
Armed with a slew of new CDs and enough confidence to rebuild Hadrian’s Wall, Steve Angello totally destroyed the Space terrace at the inaugural Ibiza opening on May 31st – but in truth, the momentum has been building on Steve Angello’s music for some time now. First up was arguably his globe-straddling Moby remix of ‘Raining Again.’ Then it was ‘Tell Me Why’ with Sebastian Ingrosso and ‘Be’ with Laidback Luke. And then ‘Be’ returned in spirit (and b-line) for ‘Show Me Love’ with original vocalist Robin S and Laidback Luke in tow, smashing clubs and Top Ten charts into tiny pieces everywhere it was dropped. “It’s a huge track as we all know,” says Steve Angello. “It’s just one of those tracks. It’s done a lot of good stuff for me so I do a new bootleg of it every six months. The best thing about it is everywhere I go, it’s the one track that everyone wants to hear. I may have played it 60,000 times but people still want to hear it!”
