Öona Dahl-----------------------------
----------------------------------------

 

As a young girl in upstate New York, Öona Dahl was fascinated with music and became obsessed with listening to old cassette tapes in her living room. This passion quickly evolved and before long she began making musical sketches in Acid Pro and Fruity Loops.

Wanting to experience electronic music on the dance floor, many excursions into the Toronto rave scene were made. Inspired by the DJ’s around her, she bought a pair of turntables and set about learning to mix records. Soon she was playing clubs, raves and warehouses at the age of 17. These formative years crystallized Öona’s love of underground dance music.

Öona moved to Florida in the early 00’s to spend her college years studying sound design and digital media as she immersed herself into the Florida underground. Bouncing between events in Orlando, Miami and Tampa she became a fixture in the scene and eventually met DJ Monk (Rabbit In The Moon) and DJ Three from Hallucination Recordings, forming a close bond which continues to this day.

By 2012, Öona’s music was getting into the hands of DJ’s and making waves on dance floors which would lead to her Let The Light In EP being released on Lee Burridge’s label All Day I Dream. Regular DJ bookings at the party series of the same name soon followed with Öona often being entrusted to play the closing set. She would go on to further explore this sound with two EP’s for Anjunadeep in 2018 and 2019.

Meanwhile, Öona was developing another side of her music that was both more experimental and song-based than her initial dance floor offerings. Exploring early influences like the ambient stylings of This Mortal Coil, Bjork’s electronica and Brian Eno’s soundscapes. Öona’s efforts caught the ear of DJ Three and before long she was signed to an album deal with his Hallucienda imprint. In 2017, the five-track Wait. lifted EP (including a music video for the title track) acted as a musical signpost threading the needle through leftfield house, electronica, and pop-infused ambience. Her debut artist album Holograma soon followed revealing a full body of work by an artist who had now found both her feet and, her voice across the full spectrum of electronic music.

Moving into 2021, Öona Dahl has since delivered a wave of new sounds. Her self-released Road to Awe EP on Bandcamp and the Godtripper EP on Watergate Records deliver deep, bouncing grooves with a subtle acid touch beneath her unique vocal textures. As Slumber, her collaboration with Amber Cox, their ability to balance darkness with the light is deftly explored on their XLR8R+ track ‘Fell Into A Dream’ and the Twin Moon EP via modern balearic house imprint Rumors.

‘Love Is All We Need’, her first collaboration with Kirsty Hawkshaw (the voice of iconic rave act Opus III) was released to both critical acclaim and dance floor cheers. Their original version is a glowing slice of electronica whilst Oona’s remix coyly hints at the past while looking towards the future. Kirsty’s signature vocals deliver the message creating a mood as pensive as it is uplifting.

In-between these releases and a heavy DJ schedule (pre-pandemic) Öona has been intensely working toward the arrival of her highly-anticipated sophomore album Morph on Hallucienda. Picking up where Holograma left off, Morph finds Oona delivering her most adventurous body of work yet, as her songwriting acumen expands from spectacular, vocal-led electronica into offerings of indie dance. All this while continuing to put her own indelible mark on leftfield house and techno including another stunning collaboration with Kirsty Hawkshaw on ‘Serenity’.

Le Youth
-------------------------------------

Le Youth has been a constant force in dance music. With numerous releases and
remixes with some of the most influential dance music labels in the world, totaling over a quarter of a billion streams, Le Youth continues to elevate his artistry with releases on Lane 8's record label

This Never Happened, Anjunabeats, Armada Electronic Elements
as well as a number of major labels.
Heavily inspired by the deep melodic house and progressive sounds of Lane 8, Ben Böhmer, Sasha and Eric Prydz,
Le Youth's decision to make music exclusively for the dance floor, was a deliberate one.

Wes James, aka Le Youth, began collecting iconic vintage studio gear and synthesizers over the past 3 years. His exploration of these pieces, by both experimenting with them
himself and learning of their usage throughout dance music history, led Wes down a new musical avenue rediscovering some of the true analog essences of dance music.

In 2022, Le Youth shows no signs of slowing down. With the release of his debut album and the culmination of a 3 year sonic journey, combined with a global touring schedule,
it’s already shaping up to be the biggest of his career to date

Fatum is a Grammy Nominated American dance group comprised of Bill Hamel, Chad Newbold, Bruce Karlsson, and Daniel Davis.

 

Awards
Nominated for Best Remixer 2016 Grammy Awards for JES, SHANT & CLINT MAXIMUS 'HOLD ON' (FATUM REMIX)
-----------------------------------------

Fatum is a Grammy Nominated American dance group comprised of four musicians - Bill Hamel, Chad Newbold, Bruce Karlsson, and Daniel Davis. With Bill, a veteran in the industry and two time Grammy Nominated producer who has created multiple hits on the Billboard Charts, and Chad having the ear for today's sound, tomorrow's next big thing and detailed production, these long time friends have combined their musical passion together to create Fatum, a vessel to make great music and collaborate with today's best artists including Bruce Karlsson, JES, Boom Jinx, Kevin Wild, and Judah. Nothing is more important to Fatum than producing quality music.

 

2014 was a break out year for Fatum. With their first release on Black Hole recordings, “Words” feat. Natalie Peris definitely setting the tone early on. Soon thereafter was "Accelerate”, an instrumental club hit that was featured on Andy Moor’s Breaking the Silence 3 compilation, and later released on Andy’s AVA Recordings. These first two releases were supported by some of the world’s top DJs and labels including Above & Beyond, Armada, Myon & Shane 54, Chicane, as well as many others, which translated to massive popularity on the Beatport trance charts.

 

Fatum has been busy in the studio creating originals and remixes to follow up with their early success. They have finished and released a remix of Enrique Iglesias - Bailando which shot to #1 on the Billboard charts within a week of it’s release. Fatum then had their third original signed to the iconic Ultra Records. The track is entitled “I Ran” featuring the vocals of Mike Score from the band Flock of Seagulls. This track was released in the Fall of 2014, and created a lot of buzz within the EDM community with it peaking at #10 on the Beatport Progressive House chart.

 

2015 started off right where Fatum left off in 2014. Their first two singles, Anjunabeat's "Mandala" and Ride Recording's "Take Me Back" both claimed the Number One spot within Beatport's Trance genre. Their follow up to these two Number One singles was the Grammy Nominated Remix of "Hold On" with the lovely vocals of JES.

 

With the success of their current releases, the arsenal of forthcoming collaborations and remixes for the beginning of 2016, the addition of their ever growing podcast, and their extreme passion for music, Fatum has most certainly become one of the primary artists to keep an eye on for the not to distant future

John Akew
---------------------------

John Askew is without doubt one of the hottest trance producer/DJs in the world. Over the last two decades his energetic, high-octane performances featuring his unique, trademark, razor sharp sounds have captivated fans and industry the world over.

From early days signed to Discover Records where John released initial hits “Vellum”, “The Door”, “New Dimension”, “Fade To Black”, “Vandalism” and “Chime”, John has gone on to deliver a catalogue of big singles and remixes for the coolest labels in the scene – including Duty Free Recordings, Vandit, Armada, Captivating Sounds, Perfecto Fluoro, Subculture, Monster Records, Euphonic, Pure Trance, WAO138, Armada and Mental Asylum…..

Today John’s record label and brand VII is the hottest entity in trance. The label exclusively releases music from the seven artists signed to it (Avalon, Simon Patterson, John Askew, Sean Tyas, Will Atkinson, Alex Di Stefano and Orkidea). John’s recent singles on VII – “Midnight Oil”, “On The Rocks”, “Raven” and “Black Coffee” all hit number 1 on Beatport and marked a new era for the evolution of John’s sound – a sound that is widely recognized as the epitome of high quality tech and melodic acid infused trance.

In 2018 John released the VII Vol I compilation which sat at number 1 on the Beatport main album chart for nearly six weeks – beating huge house and techno releases. A real testament to the formidable force that is VII. John Askew embarked on his 6x6x6 tour which saw him play sold out OTC extended sets in six of the world’s hottest cities – including Manchester, Los Angeles and Seattle.

2019 looks set to be another explosive year for John. With work already started on his third artist album, a new compilation due in September and a selection of high quality singles inbound on VII this will be a exciting and creative ejaculatory year that promises to push the boundaries of audio excellence

FROM HIS BEGINNINGS AS PART OF THE ELECTRO HOUSE ZEITGEIST THROUGH TO HIS CURRENT STATUS AS ONE OF THE MOST INNOVATIVE PRODUCERS IN THE WIDER REALMS OF TRANCE AND PROGRESSIVE HOUSE, SCOTTISH PRODUCER GRUM HAS ALWAYS BEEN A CAPTIVATING FORCE.

A MAJOR PART OF THE SCENE-LEADING ANJUNABEATS LABEL, HE’S EQUALLY IMPRESSIVE WHETHER PRODUCING ONE OF HIS TRADEMARK BOLD, COLOURFUL SPINETINGLERS OR ONE OF HIS DEEPER, MORE ATMOSPHERIC TRACKS. PUSHING A DARKER, EDGIER SOUND THAN MANY OF HIS SCENE CONTEMPORARIES, HE SETS HIMSELF APART FROM THE PACK. GRUM HAS ALWAYS WORN HIS HEART ON HIS SLEEVE IN TERMS OF HIS INFLUENCES, WITH THE SOUNDS OF DEPECHE MODE, NEW ORDER, TEARS FOR FEARS AND DELPHIC ALL MAKING THEIR MARK ON HIS MUSIC. FROM HIS 2009 FEELGOOD DEBUT SINGLE

MONSTER ‘HEARTBEATS’ WITH ITS VIBRANT, EUPHORIC ELECTRO HOUSE SOUND AND TINGES OF POP SOON SAW HIM LANDING MAJOR REMIX COMMISSIONS. HIS DEBUT ALBUM — ALSO CALLED ‘HEARTBEATS’ — WAS A HUGELY IMPRESSIVE AND IS NOW OFTEN REFERRED TO AS A SYNTHWAVE CULT CLASSIC. RELEASED ON HIS LABEL OF THE SAME NAME, IT WAS FOLLOWED BY FIVE YEARS OF ANTHEM AFTER ANTHEM ON HIS OWN IMPRINT. HIS SOUND INCREASINGLY MOVED TOWARDS A BIG ROOM AESTHETIC, WITH HIS TRADEMARK BOLD, JOYOUS SYNTH SOUNDS EXPANDING INTO A BIGGER SOUNDSCAPE. THE MAN WHO’S MUSIC DANCING ASTRONAUT CALLED “INTOXICATING” SIGNED TO

ANJUNABEATS IN 2015, MARKING A NEW CHAPTER THAT WOULD PROVE HUGELY FRUITFUL. A SLEW OF HIGHLY ACCLAIMED RELEASES INCLUDING BEATPORT PROGRESSIVE HOUSE CHART #1S ‘SHOUT’ AND ‘UNDER YOUR SKIN’, PLUS ‘U’ AND FEHRPLAY

COLLABORATION ‘SPIRIT’ WOULD MARK HIM OUT AS ONE OF THE LABEL’S KEY ACTS. SUPPORT FROM EVERYONE FROM DEADMAU5 TO ABOVE & BEYOND, ARMIN VAN BUUREN, CHRISTOPH AND CAMELPHAT CEMENTED HIS REPUTATION AS ONE OF THE HOTTEST NAMES IN THE GAME, WITH EIGHT BEATPORT TOP 10 TRACKS NOW TO HIS NAME. HIS MESMERIC DJ SETS ARE THE STUFF OF LEGENDS, TAKING HIM FROM TOMORROWLAND TO AUDIO SAN FRANCISCO AND FROM CREAMFIELDS TO HANGAR LONDON AND MANY OF THE WORLD’S OTHER GREATEST FESTIVALS AND CLUBS. HE RELISHES THE CHANCE TO PLAY EXTENDED SETS, BUILDING THINGS SLOWLY OVER THE COURSE OF ANYWHERE UP TO FOUR HOURS. HIS SKILL AS A SELECTOR LED TO HIM BEING INVITED TO MIX ANJUNABEATS’ ‘WORLDWIDE 07’ COMPILATION, WHICH HIT THE TOP 10 ON THE BILLBOARD DANCE / ELECTRONIC ALBUM SALES CHART.

AFTER SOME UNTIMELY DELAYS, HIS LONG-AWAITED SECOND ALBUM ‘DEEP STATE’ WILL FINALLY BE RELEASED BY ANJUNABEATS IN LATE 2019 AND IT LOOKS SET TO CATAPULT HIM TO HIGHER REACHES STILL. HIS LIVE SHOW HAS BEEN GAINING PLAUDITS IN RECENT TIMES AND WILL DEVELOP FURTHER WITH THE RELEASE OF THIS NEW ALBUM, SEEING HIM BECOME A MAJOR FIXTURE ON THE LIVE CIRCUIT IN THE PROCESS. WITH REMIXES ALSO FORTHCOMING FOR MARK KNIGHT & D. RAMIREZ, COSMIC GATE AND ABOVE & BEYOND, THERE’S PLENTY TO LOOK FORWARD TO FROM THIS STELLAR TALENT

 

Genix
----------

One of the longest-serving linchpins of the trance scene, Genix has deep roots in the genre that have helped his production career to grow exponentially since his debut release in 2003. Since then he has become a mainstay of Anjunabeats, with other releases on Armind, Vandit Records, Enhanced Records and Reset Records to name a few. DJing alongside the world’s elite along the way, he has become a huge name in his own right.
Pushing an exciting new sound that makes a departure from many of his previous works, he is one of the most exciting acts in Anjunabeats’ impressive stable. With no compromise in his style across his 100+ released singles and remixes and no desire to water down his sound in order to reach more commercial audiences, he is an artist who is truly dedicated to his scene.
His new formidable sound blends the most exciting elements of trance, techno, house and progressive into a potent, high octane cocktail. With a penchant for in-your-face textures and sounds set against stunning melody and beautiful atmospherics, his sound is at the vanguard of the trance movement. Blending reverence for the formative sounds of 1990s dance music upbringing with the sounds of now, his tracks are consistently among the most exciting in the scene.
He first found fame as a resident and promoter at legendary UK club night Passion, which was one of the epicentres of the ‘90s/2000s trance explosion. Cutting his name alongside the scene’s biggest DJs, he amassed a wealth of knowledge and experience that would give him solid foundations for the rest of his career. By the time he turned his hand to production in the early 2000s, he had a keen understanding of what worked on a dancefloor, giving him a huge head-start. It quickly became clear that he was as talented in the studio as behind the decks, and it wasn’t long before he was attracting major attention. His massive remix of Peter Gelderblom’s ‘Waiting 4’ version Red Hot Chilli Peppers’ ‘Standing On The Shore’ was a huge hit on BBC Radio 1, and over the years he has remixed many of the trance scene’s finest, including Above & Beyond, Markus Schulz and Sander Van Doorn.
Following years of building his name via releases on cult trance labels, he began a long and successful relationship with scene leaders Anjunabeats in 2013. Over 20 originals and remixes later with Above & Beyond’s acclaimed label and he continues to be one of their most important artists, with some major plans in the works to elevate him to higher reaches still. His DJing has taken him across the UK, Europe, Asia, Middle East and Ibiza in recent times, and at one point he held the Guinness World Record for the longest DJ set in history, clocking in at 84 hours. He also recently broke the world record for playing a DJ set at the highest recorded altitude, playing at Mount Everest Base Camp at 5,600 metres above sea level.
A major compilation and world tour are in the works, with some incredible new tracks waiting in the wings ranging from pummelling, dirty techno workouts to euphoric, rave-inspired gems.
