In the last year, London-based producer Ilan Bluestone has gone from unknown newcomer, to one of the most promising new acts on the international dance music scene.

He discovered his love for music at an early age by self-teaching guitar and keyboard, which resulted in a passion for that 'progressive' sound he builds on today.

With recent releases "Namaste" and "Capetown" on Anjunabeats, Bluestone has become a permanent fixture in Above & Beyond's recent DJ sets as well as gaining comprehensive support from other international DJ's including Tiësto, Arty, Gareth Emery and Myon & Shane 54. "Capetown" received an overwhelming amount of love from DJ's and dance music lovers around the world and was recently featured on Jordan Suckley's BBC Radio 1's "In New DJ's We Trust" show.

Inspired by the likes of Above & Beyond, Arty and Swedish House Mafia, as a producer Bluestone always has a little extra in his record bag. From his celebrated "On Our Own", a collaboration with Israeli producer Maor Levi, to his eastern inspired "Namaste" and the incredible remix of "Remolino", to remixing for Paul Van Dyk on the recent track "I Don't Deserve You", Bluestone has the ability to shower music lovers with his uplifting, original material and brilliant remixes of some of the best dance music today.

With a dedicated fanbase that is building rapidly, Bluestone is sure to ignite dance floors around the world with his unique and inspiring tracks, which he hopes will put a smile on everyone's faces.

Envision a world where ethereal beats and timeless melodies rescue you from the everyday and transport you to a higher state of consciousness. Welcome to your trance destination. In this place, we affirm that we are kindred spirits bound by deep passion—not only for the music we love, but for the community that surrounds it. That community is why we are here. You are the heart of Dreamstate. YOU are the Headliner.

Since 2015, Dreamstate has become the top-tier trance festival in the United States. What started off as a one-stage event inside the Damus Building at the NOS Event Center has since grown into a sprawling four-stage spectacle of sound, placing the creme de la creme of the industry behind each booth. But Dreamstate SoCal has been bitten by the expansion bug, and they feel that now is the perfect time to make a move that will upgrade the physical atmosphere of the brand for the foreseeable future.

This year, trance family members from around the globe will join together at the iconic Queen Mary Waterfront in Long Beach. This is the same venue that just recently hosted Day Trip Festival, and from the sounds of it, Insomniac has some extra special plans to turn what was recently a groovy gathering for house heads into an uplifting ethereal playground designed specifically for the trance enthusiast.

This year’s edition of Dreamstate SoCal will run until 1am each night, with on-site after-parties that promise to rage until the sun comes up. In addition, there’ll be an exclusive hotel close to the action so you can mix and mingle with your fellow trance addicts before and after the show, in between naps. More info on those special packages are to come.

La Otra is a different kind of enterprise for Odio, who's new to curating Latin bars. His previous ventures —Sidebar, Kindred, and Insideout — catered to Miami's nightclub-friendly crowds, more or less the same audience. So he brought in outside talent to assist him with this new undertaking.

Odio has teamed up with Marcelo Medina — who also has a history in the city's after-hours scene with his entertainment company MAG Miami — to help him bring La Otra to life. Having accrued experience organizing Latin-themed parties and events at bars such as La Victoria, Barsecco, and Komodo Lounge, Medina brings a unique element to the partnership.

“We always wanted to incorporate some sort of Latin element, but it’s one of those things of ‘stick to what you know,’ and what we knew wasn’t Latin," Odio says. "So while we were dealing with the challenge of reinventing the place, we were introduced to Marcelo Medina, who at the time was looking for a space of his own. [Together] we decided to take a dive into the Latin community, and we opened La Otra."

Although Odio hasn’t specialized in the Latin nightlife scene, he still maintains a love and respect for it. He is Cuban-American after all.

“We did a radical transition and just went full-blown Latin, and that’s not something that I’m used to," Odio says. "I barely speak Spanish, [but] I’m very proud to be from Miami and to be Cuban. To be able to cater to where I come from...it’s incredible."

La Otra will send a wave of Latin pride through Brickell via its music and its entertainment offerings. The sounds will be a varied mix of reggaeton, salsa, and other Latin genres. The venue will also adhere to its cabaret theme by incorporating live performances and shows every weekend. Since opening its doors November 8, La Otra has already hosted conga players tapping away on LED-lit drums, as well as cabaret dancers swinging their hips in eccentric getups such as glittery golden bodysuits and huge lighted wings.

Don’t expect the venue's interior to look too familiar, though. Tropical, glammed-out decor fills the completely converted space. Beyond the stage providing space for DJs and cabaret performers to do their thing, the disco balls and tropical plants hanging from the ceiling nicely complement the island-themed wallpaper. Medina’s sisters Luli and Mariale designed La Otra's aesthetic.

Gilt Nightclub is the newest exciting and monumental addition to Orlando nightlife. Gilt is located at 740 Bennett Road, home to the legendary Roxy Nightclub for the past 17 years. 

One of the longest running clubs in Orlando, Roxy opened in 1997 as a high-end destination spot and was the hottest club in the city, surviving and thriving in a very competitive market. Renovations in 2000 gave a new identity and the House movement was born. Making a statement with nights such as Monday Night Fights, 1201 and Ibiza, Roxy was on the cutting edge of the musical movement and entertainment in Orlando. 

Most of the top DJ’s in the world have performed at this location such as Like Mike, Steve Aoki, Calvin Harris and Nicky Romero. Performances from LMFAO, Nikki Minaj and Rick Ross set the tone for what was to become the most talked about club in the city. Celebrities were regulars, Roxy was the place to see and be seen for almost two decades.

Fast forward to today and the most recent changes to the space were such an undertaking, the name Roxy just didn’t fit anymore. After a 1.5 million dollar renovation, Gilt Nightclub was born in November of 2014. The original partner Ted Pizio joined forces with Mitri Hiresh, Ron Black and Jason Agan to create a brand new operating team committed to the continued evolution of nightlife in Central Florida. Gilt Nightclub boasts 10 bars, 2 dance floors, a state of the art sound and lighting system and eclectic decor. Adding to the experience is an extensive craft cocktail menu, a completely redesigned VIP area, all in a non-smoking venue.

Housed inside the former Los Angeles Stock Exchange building, Exchange LA serves as a clear indication of Downtown LA’s nightlife resurgence. With a multi level venue that fits over 1500, Exchange is Downtown LA's go-to spot for electronic dance music. Let us know if its your birthday, as we have bottle service specials for birthday celebrations!

The décor is a mix of restored Art Deco styles and distinctly modern touches, from the massive bronze doors out front to the intricately painted forty-foot ceilings and the eye-popping LED screen composed of more than one million bulbs.

There’s a sofa-lined hallway and adjoining lounge at street level, but most of the trendy guests head straight up to the Trading Floor – so named because that’s what it used to be – where they let loose to trance, house, or whatever other dance-friendly beats the DJ’s spinning that night.

Laser lights, wafer-thin house dancers, and pulsing fog machines are definitely not in short supply, but VIPs looking for a more intimate environment have several options, from the booths in the mezzanine to the chilled-out Rockefeller Room or the private dance floor in the top-level Sky Loft.

Six bars spread over four levels means grabbing a drink is less of a hassle than at other packed venues, and with reportedly more bathrooms than any other club in LA, getting rid of that drink is easier, too.

Exchange and Create are the two EDM powerhouses in LA, with all the biggest names coming through one or the other.  If you're a fan of dance music we'd highly recommend you visit both!

Those who know Webster Hall solely as the roomy host to ascendant indie-acts and faded legends alike will be surprised to hear that the faux-marble labyrinth often doubles as a real-life night club featuring cover-charged theme parties and big-name DJ sets. The four-story, 40,000 square foot space includes a main stage, lined with balcony space on either end, as well as a few amenities and extras: an underground coat check, a large back-area bar (plus a few rarely-trafficked side bars,) bathroom attendants, the 600-capacity Marlin Room, and the Studio at Webster Hall, a smaller venue-within-a-venue with an intimate atmosphere. Attendees are usually too entranced by the spinning stage lights and gothic chandeliers to notice the multi-culti hieroglyphic hode-podge lining the venue’s wall; the upstairs unisex bathroom – complete with checkered, hop-style design and blackboard walls and chalk sticks on string to encourage scrawled musings from stall occupants – is harder to ignore. Most importantly, the house sound system’s crisp low end refuses to be ignored, probably thanks to a recent $1 million upgrade

If you visited the Galaxy Theater in Santa Ana a couple years ago, you would’ve been met by cover bands, one-hit wonders or closed doors. It had its moments, of course, but those moments were rare thanks to a lengthy closure and lackluster booking. Enter Jon Reiser, former partner and booker for Detroit Bar in Costa Mesa. Reiser purchased the venue and made several significant changes: booked popular acts, upgraded the sound system, added a smaller venue-in-a-venue called the Constellation Room. The Observatory now hosts popular acts such as Method Man , GWAR, Tiesto, Waka Flocka Flame and many, many more. That also includes residencies from local acts. Selling out shows is now a habit for this place. Most of all, it provides a valuable service to the whole county by bringing in acts we could usually only see by driving to Los Angeles. Oh, and it even—gasp!—makes Angelenos cross the Orange Curtain for a show.

When you stroll up to Schimanski, it doesn't look much different from its defunct predecessor, Verboten, with its façade of classy rusted metal and sandblasted brickwork. Inside, the Williamsburg, Brooklyn nightclub looked pretty much identical too, aside from the addition of a high-end Alpha Dynacord sound system. In fact, when I arrived at the club's "pre-opening" Halloween party on Monday night (October 31)—a blow-out featuring a cast of American and European house and techno heavyweights like DeWalta, Konstantin, Boris Werner, Jesse Calosso, and Caleb Calloway playing till 4AM—I overheard one clubgoer say, "Everyone's just going to keep calling it Verboten."

Still, there were a few differences between the two clubs that stood out. For one thing, the Schimanski team named the place after a working class cop from an 80s German crime TV show called Tatort. Like the patron saint of clubland, Schimanski lorded magnanimously over the crowd, a photo of his rugged visage and extraordinary stache staring down at club-goers from various framed portraits and a projection on a wall across from the bar.

Once inside, the place will feel comfortingly familiar to Verboten initiates; the long bar is to your left, bathroom to the right (note: the window in the men's bathroom is still there, with its bizarre function of allowing you to you pee in a urinal while gazing out onto the dancefloor). And the reclaimed wood floor and exposed warehouse rafters remain—as does the venue's sizeable sideroom, which happened to be shuttered for the night. There was also a similar immersive video projection system that wraps around the club's walls, illuminating the space with trippy visuals.

There was one new piece of interior flare though: a fiberglass disco shark hanging over the bar, created by New York-based artist Kevin McHugh, who once managed the renowned New York DJ and producer Danny Tenaglia. McHugh makes models of the endangered Mako shark—and other aquatic creatures, like tiger sharks and sea turtles—to raise awareness for maritime conservation. If you've danced in Coachella's Yuma tent or at Sound in LA, you'll recognize his shimmering pieces keeping swimming over the dancefloor.

Onstage, the DJs shuffled through expected genre variants like tech-house, Latin house, and grimy techno, keeping heart rates somewhere around 128 BPM with a steady 4x4 kick drum. The giant speaker stacks hanging on either side of the DJ booth and lining the floor beneath it sent feels through every part of the body—and the additional speakers spread throughout the space, including over the bar, ensured that the sound carried pretty well throughout.

Giuseppe Ottaviani started to release tracks on VANDIT Records, Paul Van Dyk’s renowned label, in 2001 and since then can be considered one of the most talented producer and influential recording artist in trance music.

His musical career started at the age of 4 years in Viterbo, a small Italian town near Rome when he first started to play the piano. After music school in his early childhood and studies of classical music as a teen, he discovered electronic music and started to spin his first DJ-sets at clubs and on local radio stations.
His deep enthusiasm for anything related to technology led to him beginning to use his computer to make and produce his own music and when he met Andrea Ribeca in 1999 (an electronic music enthusiast and also DJ) both quickly decided to start their own music project: NU NRG - Giuseppe’s starting point as a professional musician and producer.

Since that time Giuseppe Ottaviani released club anthems like Dreamland, the Spaceflower EP, Butterfly, Casino Connected and the smash hit Free Fall and won numerous awards like the Trance Award in 2004, 2006 and 2007 for Best Live Act. No wonder why he is playing on the biggest Festivals and greatest events while touring all over the world.

Since 2005 Giuseppe Ottaviani has started his solo career with big success. His solo-productions like Through Your Eyes or his compilation The VANDIT Sessions 4 receive an outstanding feedback from all around the globe. The tracks La Dolce Vita and Far Away on Paul van Dyks album In Between again show his quality as one of the most creative artists in this scene. He also keeps on performing live with more enthusiasm as ever before: “Playing my own music live is something special, something that really touches me” Giuseppe says, “it is an electronic music concert, performing on stage allows you to get through to the people, they really breathe the music, you can establish a two-way bond with them and the music itself changes and reacts to the people, this is why each show is different, unique”.
Now here comes his long awaited debut solo artist GO!, which shows the different musical faces of one of the most creative producers of electronic music today – Giuseppe Ottaviani.

Another You (Ilan Bluestone Remix)

Another You - Ilan Bluestone Remix

Few voices are as instantly recognizable as that of Australian born songstress, Emma Hewitt.

Hewitt’s haunting melodies, yearning lyrics and distinctive style have earned her a legion of passionate fans around the world as she continues to write and release music with some of the world’s most respected names in electronic dance music.

The journey began back in the Australian town of Geelong, Victoria where Emma would perform acoustically around the region through her teenage years. “Music was a form of escape for me and not something I ever consciously set out to follow as a career path. I was always inspired to ask questions; of myself as well as others and I guess over time those questions just sort of grew wings and turned into songs”.

Those songs led to an early record deal with Sony Music for her project ‘Missing Hours’. The relationship was brief, but provided Emma with an invaluable insight into the music industry setting the stage for things to come. “I was never very comfortable that first time around – I felt as though I was trying to figure out what I wanted to say and who I wanted to be with a lot of different people watching on through a microscope. The over analyzing didn’t make sense to me as I just wanted to write songs that might mean something to people – and all of a sudden these things I’d never really considered like marketing strategies and budgets became more important to the people around me. I was out walking with my brother one day and I had this epiphany and just said, ‘screw it’ – I want to burn this all down and dream it back to life the way I had imagined it. I wanted to give the songs the respect I felt they deserved”.

And dream it back to life she did. Emma’s very first EDM collaboration with UK heavyweight Chris Lake yielded the worldwide smash ‘Carry Me Away’ knocking Britney Spears out of the #1 position on the U.S Billboard Chart (Hot Dance Airplay) going on to spend over 50 weeks in the Top 100.

From there, Emma teamed up with German icons Cosmic Gate for the classic anthem ‘Not Enough Time’ and Dutch superstar DJ Dash Berlin for the mega hit, ‘Waiting’. ‘Waiting’ firmly cemented Emma Hewitt’s reputation as a serious international talent earning Hewitt many accolades including a #1 on the Global Trance Charts, #2 on the illustrious A State Of Trance Annual Countdown and an International Dance Music Award (Best Euro/HiNRG Track) at the 2010 Winter Music Conference in Miami.

A string of #1 Beatport releases followed throughout a particularly fertile period in 2010 and with a wealth on new material, a new record label in Armada Music and a desire to push the creative envelope, Hewitt undertook the extraordinary measure of producing her debut artist release as a double album project. “My only real goal with the album was to be faithful to the songs regardless of style or genre – I guess with the double sided concept, I just wanted to give as much music as I could back to whoever wanted or needed to hear it. I also wanted this album to show some of the different sides to my personality”.

Produced by Lee Groves (Goldfrapp, Marilyn Manson, Depeche Mode), ‘Burn The Sky Down’ was an instant favorite with fans around the world debuting in the Top 10 on the ITunes dance charts in seven different countries fusing electronic beats with ambient soundscapes, and live instrumentation with Hewitt’s inimitable vocal style at the fore.  On the flip side the remix album features some of the world’s most respected remix artists including Armin van Buuren, Grammy nominated Morgan Page and Cosmic Gate amongst many others.

An extensive touring schedule throughout 2012 has included sold out solo performances right across the globe in over 25 countries as well as appearances on the major EDM festival circuit around the world where Hewitt is often known to leave the stage, microphone in hand, to join the revelers in the arena below.

“The energy and generosity of spirit of the people I meet everywhere I perform is what inspires me to make music and through the music, we share a bond even if we may never have met. As long as there is a single person who may find something they are looking for or a feeling they need in my music, I will continue to write for that person”.

A world away from the humble beginnings of her coastal hometown in Australia, Hewitt’s enthusiasm and relationship with her audience is something to behold and as she takes the stage, one line echoes out perfect summing up the Emma Hewitt journey so far;

“The beauty of the ride…”

2012.

Introduction: Over the last 10 years Markus Schulz has crafted the individual musical identities of progressive, trance & house into his own unique fusion sound. The combined influence of his headlining DJ sets; Armada and Coldharbour label releases and highly prominent Global DJ Broadcast radio show have placed him at the forefront of the US EDM revolution. This success has been reflected in weekly sets spun in front of tens of thousands, a GDJB listenership up in the millions and critically acclaimed albums, including ‘Do You Dream?’ and most recently ‘Scream’. In 2008 Schulz broke into the # 10 of DJ Mag’s Top 100 chart and has maintained a successive run of high-ranking positions ever since. He holds the 2012-2013 DJ Times magazine reader-voted title of America’s Best DJ. Playing over 150 gigs every year, he has become the busiest international DJ playing out of the United States.

Markus Schulz – The DJ: Through his natural audience interaction, flawless harmonic mixing, intuitive tune selection and now famous open-till-close sets, he has wowed crowds in every major metropolis. Schulz’s DJ career has run largely parallel to that of his productions. In the early noughties, having concentrated on the hinterland between trance & progressive, he began to reach audiences further and further afield. His career received a significant boost when, in 2004, he signed with heavyweight DJ agency, David Lewis Productions (also home to Armin van Buuren). Now a regular fixture at the world’s biggest & most famous clubs, arenas and festivals, he lays down his inimitable trance-progressive vision on a weekly basis. In Europe, he’s smashed Transmission, Nature One, Dance Valley, Electronic Family, Sunrise and Tomorrowland; worked tent-pegs loose at Creamfields; gridlocked Global Gatherings and played open-till-close sets at Space, Miami, Avalon, LA and Amnesia, Ibiza. Stateside the colossal Electric Daisy, Nocturnal, and Ultra Festivals have allfelt Schulz pressure and yet further afield still he’s engineered floor uproar across South East Asia and Australia. Schulz polled 4 consecutive years inside DJ Mag’s world’s top 10, is regularly ranked in the FTB, Trance Addict and Trance Podium charts as trance’s 2nd biggest spinner and won Best American DJ at the 2008 IDMAs.

How It Began: Born in Eschwege, central Germany, Markus emigrated to the United States. Age 13, his dance music awakening came during the grip of the country’s then-nascent breakdance scene. His early production and DJ career roughly tracked that of the second Stateside House explosion and he caught his first production break in 1993 when he remixed Sagat’s ‘Why Is It? (F** Dat)’ for FFrr. Markus’ freshman production release followed in 1994 with the 6-track ‘Plastik Trax EP Vol 1’. Throughout the mid to late Nineties he continued to accrue acclaim with a range of releases on numerous luminary U.S. labels. In 1998 he recorded ‘You Won’t See Me Cry’ for Plastik Records (his first label), which was picked up by the UK’s Eve Records and became his first non-domestic release.

Coldharbour Recordings: Schulz’s sound notably came quickest to the ears of European DJs. Following the formation of the Armada group in 2005, Armin sought Markus out and asked him to start compiling tracks for a new vinyl series. The Coldharbour Sessions EPs launched in 2004 (with the first 3 releases coming out on the already established Electronic Elements label). In succession they resoundingly impacted on dancefloors and within 12 months Coldharbour the label came into existence. Named after Markus’ then-production base in London’s Coldharbour Lane, its output immediately brought a new sound-type to Armada’s repertoire. It also became a lightning rod for a new generation of prog-inclined producers – setting in motion the careers of (amongst others) Santiago Nino, Rex Mundi, Mark Otten & Niklas Harding. With 2005 under the spell of Coldharbour’s more refined, minimal yet still melodic take on the trance sound Markus struck again with the first Coldharbour Sessions mix compilation. Such has been the success of the imprint that in 2007 it was joined by sub-label Coldharbour Red. This, in turn, became the launch pad for the careers of Marcus Schössow, tyDi, Glenn Morrison & Evol Waves and was the point of re-entry for early Schulz side-project, Dakota (see section below). In August 2010 it celebrated it 100th release with Schulz’s cover of Cass & Slide’s ‘Perception’. Eight years after its birth, Coldharbour stands among the top tier of trance & progressive labels and received a Best Global Label nomination at the 2013 IDMAs. Getting regular props from the press, in 2011 DJ Mag stated that it was: “a imprint in the rudest of good health!” while Mixmag said: “Coldharbour is a label fair brimming with ready-to-break production talent”.

M.S. Productions 2005 – 2009: Perfectly intersecting the quality/quantity axis, Markus’ own productions have been fundamental components in marshalling clubbers and music lovers to his sound. Over the course of the last half-decade singles like ‘First Time’ & ‘Without You Near’ (2005), ‘Fly To Colours’, ‘Never Be The Same’ & ‘I Am’ (2007) ‘Perfect’ & ‘Cause You Know’ (2008) & most recently anthems like ‘The New World’ & ‘Do You Dream?’ have each played their vital part. Markus is also a regular production collaborator. In 2005 he famously teamed up with likeminded producers Gabriel & Dresden and Departure for ‘Without You Near’ and did the same with Andy Moor on ‘Daydream’ and Max Graham on ‘Goodbye’. The impact of all the singles has been catalysed throughout the period by his studio albums ‘Without You Near’ (2005) and ‘Progression’ (2007). M.S. Productions 2010 – 2012 - ‘Do You Dream’: In February 2010, Schulz completed the principle recording of his third longplayer, ‘Do You Dream?’ The 16-track album was released on June the 15th in many key territories. Its release prompted Tilllate Magazine to say it was “energetic” & “exhilarating”, whilst DJ Mag said: “it’s hard to see why you won’t completely adore this”. On April the 1st, 2011 the album’s remix edition was released. It included track remakes from heavyweights including Ferry Corsten, Cosmic Gate & Super8 & Tab, as well as core Coldharbour artists, inc. Tucandeo, Mr Pit and Mike Foyle. The remix edition was followed a month later by Schulz’s first DVD release in May ‘11, which documented his ‘Do You Dream?’ round-theworld tour. October 2011 saw Schulz begin work on his fourth, as yet untitled artist album. It was announced in March of 2012 that ‘Go!’ - a collaboration with fellow German producer Dennis Shepard, would be the first single to appear from it. Markus Schulz Pres. Dakota: Markus has only made rare use of pseudonyms throughout his career - seeing them only as valuable if they represented an outlet for something other than his established sound. At the turn of the millennium he released 3 tracks (‘Swirl’, ‘Frozen’ & ‘Lost in Brixton’) under the alias, Dakota. Over time the tracks became first-contact points for many new fans. In 2009 Schulz paid dues to that by resurrecting the guise, recalibrating its sound and directed his attentions to a whole album of material. ‘Thoughts Become Things’ was the result and it became a route diversion that branched out to embrace techno, house and other sub-genres. It swelled both Schulz’s fanbase and the range of DJ support for his music. The album justified 7 single releases that have included particular fan-favourites ‘Chinook’, ‘Johnny the Fox’, ‘Koolhaus’ & ‘Mr Cappuccino’. Such was its success in July of 2011 he followed it up with the sequel – ‘Thoughts Become Things II’. Giving it their prized Album of the Month award, MIXMAG said: “With ‘Thoughts II’ Schulz’s Dakota guise could be about to take centrestage”, while DJ Mag noted it contained “lush riffs at a housier tempo” and was “epic stuff”. Further afield America’s DJ Times wrote: "every track pushes great sounds and solid club vibes that throw you off your feet", whilst Germany’s Raveline said that: "no DJ should miss out on the techier, darker and more progressive side of the Schulz sound". To date it has spawned 5 singles (‘Sinners’, ‘Sleepwalkers’, Katowice’ and the AA ‘In A Green Valley’/’Saints’), as well as a remix edition with reworks from Arnej, KhoMha, Mr Pit, Wellenrausch and others.

The Global DJ Broadcast show: Now in its sixth year Schulz’s GDJB has continued to be a beacon for an always-growing throng of trance & progressive dance fans. Having begun life on Miami’s Party 93.1 station, it is now broadcast through DI.fm and Sirius/XM satellite, the Global DJ Broadcast site and over 50 other FM stations around the planet. Based on a regular format, the first show of each month is a two hour long mix from one of Schulz’s rolling World Tour gigs - ones that have of late included Medellin, Columbia, St Petersberg, Russia & Amnesia in Ibiza. Subsequent shows in the month feature Markus mixing his broad span pick of the current electronic dance music best for an hour (which includes the forum-voted Global Selection track of the week) followed by guest mixes from both established and up-and-coming DJs.

Markus Schulz – The City Albums: Markus is also responsible for one of the longest running and respected compilation album series in trance history. Providing this microcosmic view of his sound, the albums have become cornerstones for fans collections, with each travelogue edition bringing in a fresh wave of supporters. Notably, the Amsterdam ’08 release was nominated for an IDMA award for Best Full Length DJ Mix (in the same year that he took home the trophy for Best American DJ). Kicking off in 2005 with Miami, it moved to Ibiza in ’06, Amsterdam in ’08 and Toronto in ’09. The following year Schulz was “notably ahead of the curve” (Mixmag) with Las Vegas’10 release, presaging the city’s EDM rise by 12 months. In 2011 he focused on dance music’s surge in popularity in Eastern Europe with Prague’11, before returning to the States for his most recent edition. ‘Los Angeles ‘12’ captured the establishment of EDM as a dominant mainstream force in the American music scene. In giving it their Album of the Month, Mixmag said: “Schulz clearly demonstrates his understanding of the uncompromising sounds that holds sway over LA’s clubs and arenas”.

Remixes: Markus started his remix career in the early 90s with a 30-strong volley of high-profile reworks. Over the course of the decade he re-tooled the production works of Euro dominators like The Real McCoy & Technotronic, house masters & divas including Armand van Helden & Liz Torres, legendary Nineties icons RuPaul, Bette Midler & Sandra Bernhard and fully-fledged Alisters like Madonna (on Love Don’t Live Here Anymore). As the Millennium arrived he began to work on deeper, more intrinsically electronic dance fare... In 2000 he remixed trance innovator Pablo Gargano’s ‘Absolution’, PQM’s Renaissance classic ‘The Flying Song’ and Fatboy Slim’s ‘Sunset (Bird of Prey). Satisfied that he’d found the right dance strata to focus on

Markus has gone on to rewire tracks by Oceanlab, Motorcycle, Dance 2 Trance, Cosmic Gate, Nalin & Kane, Kyau & Albert, John O’Callaghan, & Space Manoeuvres amongst many, many others.

Next in line to board Avicii’s talent focused label PRMD is the young American producer Spencer Brown (born Spencer Bruno). He has potential to change the spectra of his genre with a unique sound highly appreciated by his ever-growing audience.

Born and raised in the US, Spencer has had music blasting in his head uncontrollably for as long as he can remember. After focusing on drumming alongside various other instruments, Spencer found production as the perfect outlet for his permanent creativeness. Before finding his true element, Spencer experimented in the hip-hop genre that converted into a more dubstep-like sound after being inspired by attending small, local Dallas dubstep shows. Producing with cheap headphones and a laptop under the alias “Spenca,” Spencer found that his extensive drumming and songwriting background catalysed his electronic music productions. By age 17, his idols such as Rusko, Bassnectar, Kill The Noise, and Datsik supported his tracks. Datsik even featured some of Spencer’s collaborations with AFK on his label Firepower.

While releasing dubstep, Spencer developed a secret fascination for house music. Spencer’s first house release, a bootleg of “Superstition” by Stevie Wonder, caught the eye of manager/visionary Ash Pournouri who brought Avicii to his superstar level. Since then Spencer and Ash have been working together in order to produce music in a style that the scene seems to be lacking—an epic, progressive, mesmerizing sound that retains high energy. At first hesitant to leave the popular sound of bigroom house music, Spencer had a lifechanging epiphany during Eric Prydz’s Dallas performance in 2012. At this time, Spencer and Ash now both agreed to resist the oversaturated sounds found on Beatport Top 10 and to create something never heard before in the industry.

The first release from Spencer Brown will be his “Echoes” remix for PRMD. He has also already finished 3 full EPs to be released in early 2014.
