Having been in the business for 15 years, DJ Onirika has been setting new standards in the Italian music scene. She can be undoubtedly considered the most important and the most talented female DJ in the country. Her career started during ?90 when she began to take part to rave parties which took place between Trieste, her native Italian city and Slovenia. Since her very first steps, she showed great musical taste, impressive technique and a nice style. Her fame grew fast, and even faster when she decided to move to Rimini in 1998. She quickly became resident DJ in the most famous venues in town, such as Classic (well known for its afterhours parties), Ecu, Echoes and Peter Pan. Onirika has recently entered the world of music production: her first record, "I Can't Stand", produced with DotDj, was released on LDU Records/9rec is still getting great feedback and rotation by some of the most famous electronic dance music DJs around the world. She?s working at Discopiu DJ Shop in Rimini, the most important in the country, and she's demonstrating for Roland Italy, for Groove Gears equipments. In 2000 and in 2001 she has been the only female DJ to have run for Bybloscar, Italian award given to nightlife representatives. The colleagues that she most appreciates and that have decidedly influenced and contributed to her professional training, have also become her great friends: Stefano Greppi and Andrea Doria, people that she respects for their great professionalism and musical quality.

2004 was also the year of the "Club Revolution" Compilation (reprinted in 2006), which she mixed alongside the upcoming Italian talent Jonny20. This compilation was innovative as the first Italian progressive-house compilation, getting enthusiastic reviews on magazines such as Live, 365mag.com, Soundrevolt.com and Disc-Jockey.it. She also produced and mixed the first Italian digital compilation: Land Digital Under sold on EDM Digital Records. On November 2005 has been released "Lost In Tokyo", with her own vocals and a powerful remix produced with Andrea Doria for Freddy Mayers aka Fedex's single.

Onirika is really a true D.J., with a technique and a musical selection that countersign her for a long time. In Italy she's the only female DJ to propose alternative house music at the maximum levels. Her DJ sets have been and are broadcasted on national and international networks and web radio: among these M20 Italy, Magma Web/FM Project Italy, Proton Radio, Di.Fm, Pure.Fm e MercurySession US, Afterhours/Doble Nueve e Lima Live Sessions (PERU), Dance Latino America (ARGENTINA), Ensonic.FM e Meerestief Radio, (GERMANY), Freshradio, DanceRadio e BestRadio (GREECE), Top Fm (YUGOSLAVIA) and many others.

Onirika is the founder and creator with Massimo Nero of Disc-Jockey.It; today the webzine/portal counts more than 4 million visits/month and 10000 registered users.
She?s also owner of LDU Records, the digital label that has gained lots of success all over the world in a very short time: many of its releases have reached top charts, like Balance Promote and Release Promo, have been inserted into Sasha?s Instant Live Avalon LA, Marc Romboy and Tommy Sunshine?s Systematic Sessions and Sandra Collins? Perfecto Presents Part 2 compilations, and reviewed by the top dj magazines like IDJ and DjMag.

?I think Jon?s a jewel in the crown. He?s really great with the crowd and his music. He?s been a great support to me. Put him in front of 30,000 people and he really goes for it. He naturally warms the crowds up. We always discuss what we?ll both be playing and goes out there and does it. At the moment he?s better than most top DJs I could mention.? Carl Cox, March 2007.

A DJ since ?96, beginning his career at many of the UK?s major dance events (at clubs such as The End, Magna and Camden Palace) and one of the original Mixmag ?Future Hero?s, Jon has been a regular at some of the most exciting clubs and events of the era. Fusing Techno, House, Breakbeat and pumping Progressive House together, Jon?s unique and diverse blend of sounds has won him many admirers globally, by subtly pushing new music onto people whilst keeping them firmly on the dance floor. 2006 saw things really take off for this rising talent, having played at many of the major dance festivals across Europe including Dance Valley, Global Gathering and Sonar to name but a few, as well as regular dates across the UK.

In 2006 Jon accepted the position of running the world renowned Intec Records on behalf of Carl Cox, taking the label into new musical directions and expanding on what the label had already built. While running Intec, Jon?s DJing schedule continued but being in this position helped Jon expand on what has been a success in A&R within the label as well as work on his own productions.

By night, Jon works in his studio, his production outputs are many and as in-demand as he is as a DJ. Jon has remixed tracks for Cox?s latest artist album ?Second Sign? in both Electro House and Drum n Bass styles as well as being responsible for one of the freshest techno tracks on Intec ?Dirty Disco?. His releases have been supported heavily by the likes (amongst others) of DJs Paul Van Dyk, Danny Tenaglia, John Digweed and Ben Sims. In 2007 Jon released an EP on Trevor Rockcliffe?s Mentor label, being the first artist other than Rockliffe to ever appear on the label. A huge Rundell remix of Bad Clock by Sebastien Leger has been hammered by Van Dyk (DJ Mag Top10 track, Essential Mix plays, regular on his Soundgarten show) Jon?s remix of Get What You Paid 4! By Carl Cox featuring Saffron from Republica on vocals was commercially released and charted highly in America?s Billboard charts. Jon's latest release ?The London EP?, including tracks ?Rock? and ?Nemesis? have been in the playlists of many. Heavy support from Van Dyk saw him play no less than two tracks from this EP and 4 others in his recent essential mix (August 2007). Jon continues to balance work, with Djing and is working on some really exciting forthcoming productions. Keep your ear to the ground!

Gig highlights of 2007 really show how far Jon has come over the last year. They have included The Gallery in London, a stop off gig in Jakarta followed by a massive tour at the Future Music Festivals across Australia during March; taking in Brisbane, Melbourne, Adelaide, Auckland and Sydney and often playing to no less than 20,000 between DJs such as Ferry Corsten, Felix da Housecat and Carl Cox. August 2007 saw Jon play at Live at Loch Lomond Festival in Scotland as well as gracing the decks of the new terrace at Space in Ibiza, for the busiest ever Carl Cox ?King of Clubs? night, Mondaybar in Stockholm and warming things up for Danny Tenaglia on the inside terrace at Dannys? exclusive ?Ace of Clubs? night at Space in Ibiza for a second time in 07.

Things are looking good for Jon, DJ and production wise. On route to Australia in early 2008 Jon will visit the Far East. Jon will then be joining Carl Cox again on tour across Australia, this time for the Big Day Out festivals. First stop is Auckland in NZ, finishing in Perth via the Gold Coast, Sydney, Melbourne and Adelaide. Jon then plans to concentrate on more production work by getting into the studio with Carl as well as fitting in other DJ bookings across Aus, before flying out to Miami to make his presence at the annual Winter Music Conference.

Sometimes are small events that change peoples lives. If these events are combined with an amazigly strong passion for music then everything becomes a lot clearer. Gill emerges in 2004 after a his first performance in a well known local club called the Ambasada Gavioli, Isola Slovenia. He starts focusing his performances and his music on a progressive house style, but highlights the fact that his musical choices are not at all strict, but bohemien and very malleable to various kinds of electronic music.
Gill was influenced by the big house names around the globe, and also being lucky to have the possibility to travel quite a lot and experience real electronic music that in some areas is hard to find. People started to recognize Gills name mostly in the local scene. In the meantime, the public relations business starts and after 3 years of hard work, the organisation of small events for Different Grooves begin. After some time the whole project works well localy but also internationally, boasting good engagements with Austria and Slovenia. This is when the Different Grooves agency started, having a hard time at the beginning, but after those first hard steps, has got itself a good name.
"100% electronic music addicted" is not a label, but the only slogan that can be attached to Gill. Written in english since boudaries and language limitations in the music business does not exist, as it is all one big musical country. Gill is sometimes seen as an innovator and other times he is seen as a traditionalist, but the truth is he is always evolving to another level. He manipolates the sound of vocal house, progressive, break beat, funky, techno, electro and minimal sounds, but has a strong bond with this last one mentioned. This slice of electronic music gives birth to Dotliner aka Gill, a new project that focuses on a must of minimal sound. The only thing that divides Gill from the international music scene is his own productions. This has been a fixed thought in his mind, but has not been able to complete this task yet. One thing at a time, as fundamental steps that bring a person to become and artist are in order, and they have to be followed so. This last step is getting closer to Gills cv, and has a good opportunity to bring his talent throughout the globe!

Selected artists: David Morales, Steve Porter, Space Djz, Stanny Fransen, Kammy, Infusion, Sam Perez & Dariush, Joe Montana, Pete Gooding, Lexicon Avenue, ATFC, Crazy Lemon, Chiko, Gumja, Aleksij, Shark, Eddie F, Sputnik, Mreux,...

It's not unusual to put a kid behind the piano at the age of six. But when his peers where still learning to play Bach and Chopin, Hague (NL) born Jan Jakomin was already introduced to the art of jazz improvisation. So it?s kind of natural he acquired a healthy taste for fresh, modern, weird, provocative music, poetry, movies, design and other art expressions. ?I guess this explains how I got involved in the electronic dance culture. I was, and still am, attracted to everything new. I noticed this stuff on some Italian radio stations even before the rave phenomenon hit Slovenia. I got hooked as I learned more about the music and the whole movement. I spent countless nights recording tunes from Italian radios on cassettes and listening to them on walkman on a way to school the morning after. But as this was well before the euphoria hit our home turf, I was considered weirdo who listens to some strange music, by most of the other kids.?

Moving to high school it became easier for Jan to find soul mates. Especially after Ambasada Gavioli club started to operate in his school backyard. ?This is where the whole generation of young people got in touch with the scene. At the age of 15 I became flyer-boy and got to know then resident deejays Umek and Valentino Kanzyani and they are still two of my big role models. This was back in 1996. The year after I teamed up with Andrew Technique and Alexander Madness, we bought our first gear and started mixing records,? remembers the time when he became DJ Ian F, now already mature and established, but still very fresh sounding genre bending artist. ?Gavioli was also the place where I got my big chance and spent the next eight years as a resident deejay. I?ve fine-tuned my knowledge of every angle of club culture: from performing, programming the set, to booking, sales of drinks and other aspects of party-organization. And I got in touch with some of the leading artists as they performed in the club on the regular basis.?

At the end of the century Ian F became a resident deejay of the Sub Sub club in the Slovenian capital city Ljubljana and was hand picked by Valentino Kanzyani to open or close his now legendary all-night performances as a support deejay. That gave additional momentum to Ian?s career, and he became regular performer at leading indoor and outdoor raves in the region and shared another residency with DJ Psiho at the Colosseum in Opatia, Croatia. Psiho also introduced him to the art of music production and they've released two joint ventures on Annuaki Records.

Two or 3 turntables and external multieffects is what the italian techno underground Dj Oniks needs to make the crowd jump until the end of the night. Late in the '90s he starts playing some records during raves and afterhours, giving expression to his percussive musical taste and, later on, spinning his sound in many clubs and filling his calendar with gigs in famous Italian festivals. Apperances on an important national radio channel with his program, contribute to improve his name among the Italian clubbers and give him the right motivation to open his own web radio with dj T.Finn.

That's how Robotron Radio gets into life, tuning every day all kinds of techno music and following his ideal of hard sound. In the mean time FUNK YOU Night was born, the famous party managed by the artist himself that finds Oniks as the protagonist with the most important exponents of the global techno scene. Oniks is also known as one of the most important representative djs in the hardtechno & schranz italian scene: his pumping style, his hectic and elegant sets keep Oniks on the wave of clubbing and make him obtain always more success.

For a long time, Slovenia is known for its great electronic parties, but as the local scene is of boutique dimensions, everyone, who wishes to take the art of mixing and producing to a professional level, has to go out there and enter the worldwide scene. Umek has done this step as early as in the middle of the 90s and so he became one of the most important techno players of the global techno scene, even before the end of the last millennium. Together with people, who shared the same views, he successfully captured the first era of researching and recreating the rules of the dance music in Recycled Loops, Consumer Recreation and Astrodisco platforms, which all put the sound of the Slovenian techno on the world map of electronic music. In the beginning of the year 2007, he started a new 1605 Music Therapy - Sixteenofive, with which he marked the beginning of the second era of his music creation.

Through the 1605 Therapy, Umek successfully spreads a mixture of brute alternative sounds on one hand and anthems for the biggest venues of the world on the other. The first group is formed of records such as Ricochet Effect, Another Matter Entirely and Utopia, while the second group includes famous Posing As Me and Carbon Occasions, the two records, which broke the club borders and conquered radio waves, with the accompanying videos played also on MTV. Cooperation with record labels such as Renaissance, Little Mountain, Ultra, Pacha, Armada, constant presence on dozens of radio stations all over the world, Essential Mix, appearances on Primavera, Monegros and Dance Valley festivals, appearances on numerous compilations and constant support of many colleagues such as Sander Kleinenberg, Fergie, Tiesto, Judge Jules, Eddie Halliwell, John Digweed, M.I.K.E. and Carl Cox confirm that the 1605 Therapy is already showing first results. Another proof, we shouldn't miss out, are also good rankings in the Dj Mag Top 100 DJs poll and other popularity contests.

In the beginning of this year, the 1605 Therapy also began a journey in the form of a record label. Thelaunch of the record label was announced on the second day of the >>The Day Of Electronica<< in May, while producer VoRr with his premier release of Outlaws / Project 1.333 successfully prepared the ground for the re-release of the classic Gatex, which came back in the form of a new remix by Fergie.

"It?s true. I'm an art junkie,? admits Andrew. ?When I was a kid people thought I?d become a successful painter, actor, singer or whatever. But it was the music that attracted me the most for as long as I can remember. In business I believe in professionalism and dedication, but when it comes to producing and performing music I indulge in being lead by my feelings. And I?m very emotional. I can get goose bumps or even a tear in my eye listening to some great piece of music. I?m not ashamed to admit that. I do listen to the comments given by my friends and people that I personally believe they are credible critics. I respect good-intended critic, but I got where I am today mostly because I decided so and worked hard to reach some of my personal goals,? summarizes his career Andrej S?arkanj aka Andrew Technique.
Although as a master of his own destiny he almost abandoned his dream not so far ago. ?Let?s just say I came to the major life-crossroad and had to decide what I wanted to do with life: I could have ended my music career right there and then or choose to channel all my free-time and energy into production and promotion of my own vision of dance music. It never was, and still isn?t, all roses. But now, that I finally get the positive feedback from the right people I?m happy I decided not to quit," explains Andrew with a tiny sparkle of satisfaction in his eyes.

He made some big steps in 2007: he produced bunch of great fresh sounding tunes, his records are now being regularly played by the top deejays such as Umek and Valentino Kanzyani, some of his tracks were already broadcasted on BBC Radio 1 ... But, regarding the strong competition, Andrew is aware that just a few of good releases will not bring him much. So he doesn?t rest on early successes: "Dedication, sustain quality of releases and a bit of luck are key elements on which I build my future as an artist.?
It?s been more than a decade since he developed a passion for 4x4 beats. ?I used to be into guitar music. I learned to play the piano, I joined the garage band as a teenager and I grew up on hardrock and metal,? smiles Andrew on not so distant memories. ?During the high school period I came in touch with other genres, widened my musical spectrum and finally turned in totally different direction. I started listening to electronic stuff, learned how the music is selected, performed and produced and in a few years established myself as a tech-house deejay." Although some could label his sound more like unique mixture of minimal, electro and progressive elements. "We leave in a time of genre blending, so it?s hard to label one?s sound, anyway,? admits Andrew. "But those who follow my work do know I?ve always had a strong passion for organic African rhythms."

And how did he get his name? ?Andrew was an obvious choice, just a translation of my civilian name. And I choose Technique since I was always very handy with stuff, I still work in a computer shop, MacGyver is a big hero of mine and the name also reflects what I do as an artist.? And the influences: "I listen to a lot of music and I got inspired by a lot of great artists along the way. I try to find something special in every piece of music and all musicians are mentors to me in a way. But the most important influence for me as an artist was and in a way still is our local super club Ambasada Gavioli. It was the place where I was introduced to electronic culture and where I experienced some great performances of leading global deejays.?
Andrew is also known as a ?very friendly artist?. He's a member of SDJF initiative that is dedicated to constant development of the local electronic club scene and supporting young artists. And when he's not performing on his own, he abuses decks and comps as a member of Foreplay!, R&S and Parallel Fusion (live) projects: "There were also some others, but this things come and go and only the best stay. The basic idea behind collaborations is to get together with other artists, develop and share ideas or blend genres. And it's always more fun producing and performing music with other people than on your own."

As a producer he gets all the help he needs from his musical guru Tomy DeClerque. He established his name as part of Tomy or Zox combo on the house scene back in the 90's and is now successfully running his own studio that is second home to some of the hottest young producers in the region. Tomy and Andrew debuted on Kanzyani's Jesus Loved You label with the Obala EP in late 2007. Tomy also remixed Fresh which was included in Umek's Essential Mix and released on Circle Records: "Studio is my favorite place for spending free time. I go there most of the days and I try to channel my ideas, thoughts, wishes and feelings into the music." And since he's very passionate guy, there's a truckload of new records with Andrew's name on it planned for release in forthcoming months. "I'm already well established artist in the region, so now I'd like to spread my sound trough the rest of the Europe and elsewhere. There are many challenges I'd like to take, but the ultimate would be performing on another planet. I'm not kidding. I believe this is something I could achieve as anartist, so don't be surprised if you get a postcard from Mars or Venus someday."

Ciuoffo's style is very unique: it combines tech house rhythms with tribal, deep, detroit latin, tango, afrobeat. At the age of 11 he buys his first turntables and his career officially starts in 2007 when he wins a dj contest, 1st place for his mixing technique at the official Italian Dj Meeting in FVG.
Then he partecipates at the third edition of the Italian Electroblog festival in 2008 playing before artists like Solomun from the German Diynamic Music. In 2009 he becomes part of 2 important event organizations: Different Grooves, well known in italy, collaborates with many important festivals across Europe and is a reference point for electronic music in the italian scene, and HayMas Events, which is a growing promoter and event organization from Trieste.

Today Ciuoffo performs in dj sets playing vinyl and in LIVE Sets with his collegue Marco Kole, forming a new project called TribalVision, based on live sets with AbletonLive playing our very own samples with 3 laptops, keyboards and controllers in sync.
Michele Ciuoffo always tries to combine mooving, groovy rhythms with melodic instruments creating that tribal latin tech house sound that would be similar to Ricardo Villalobos, Luciano or 2000 and one. He is curently waiting to find the right label to put out his projects succesfully and start his career also as a producer. Special thanks to collegues from DifferentGrooves.com and Hay Mas: Marco Kole, Fabrizio Calzi(fabrixx), Matt Keyl, Sputnik, Gill, and others..
