SOHMI

support by CP3O & Operator

Watching SOHMI take control of the decks and effortlessly command the attention of thousands of people at venues like the Brooklyn Mirage, you can’t help but understand right away there’s something special about her.

And while being thrust in front of such high-stakes situations and crowds might cause panic for some, for the Korean American DJ, producer, and vocalist - who is a classically trained pianist and graduate of theater studies - being on stage is where she’s always felt most at home.

Landing on the scene just a few years ago, SOHMI quickly gained a reputation for her nuanced and emotive brand of DJing, subsequently becoming the first Korean woman to be named a resident at LA’s premier underground house and techno club, Sound. Though she had barely been DJing for a year at that point, it was clear to everyone that she was a natural force behind the decks.

Undoubtedly, all her years of musical training prepared SOHMI for this moment. With a sonic ethos heavily rooted in and influenced by her studies of classical music, she draws inspiration from the old symphonic masters in her approach to building DJ sets and the minimalism of modern 20th century composers in her productions. Equally influential to SOHMI’s musical vision are the slinky R&B and UK pop/garage cuts of the 90’s and early 2000’s by artists like Aaliyah, Cassie, and Craig David. Indeed, she’s driven as an artist by the desire to bridge all of these sounds together in ways that are at once familiar, yet somehow completely unexpected and new.

So far, that vision has proven effective and alluring - garnering early co-signs from some of the biggest names in the industry including BBC Radio 1’s Danny Howard, Booka Shade, Yotto, and Hot Since 82. Since putting out her first EP in 2020, SOHMI has been regularly featured on the prestigious radio show for releases such as ‘Want U 2 Love Me’ (Astralwerks Records), ‘Sparks’ (Nothing Else Matters), ‘Closer’ (Odd One Out), and ‘Small Talk’ (Blaufield Music).

Showing no signs of slowing down, SOHMI has a landmark year ahead of her in 2022. She kicks things off with a brand new release on Defected Records imprint DVINE Sounds, a collaboration with Josh Butler’s new alias project Denton that is sure to become an instant deep house classic. This comes on the heels of a successful string of shows supporting the mighty Boris Brejcha at Denver’s Mission Ballroom and Chicago’s epic new Radius, and arrives just in time for a busy and exciting festival season this year that will take her everywhere from Electric Forest to Coachella.

Before that, she joins Hot Since 82 at the end of March as the special guest for Knee Deep in Miami.

Otherwise, she plans to stay busy in the studio - working on new music that’s anything but ordinary and sure to leave its mark on both the dancefloor and the soul.

Ryan and Nik of The Sponges have made a name for themselves in recent years with an incredibly unique sound, blending funk, tech house, and bass house in a seamless and fun way. The duo is from Palm Beach, Florida. Growing up outside of Miami, Club Space quickly became one of their favorite venues and helped introduce the two to electronic music. “The sound system is so pristine. I’d want to see Tipper or Eprom… bass acts that make the system really work. We saw Disclosure there and they played ‘You and Me (Flume Remix)’ and it was the only time we’ve ever seen a track under 120 BPM and it was just insane.”

For The Sponges, creating music is a complex process often driven by older samples and two unique production styles that Ryan and Nik bring to the table. “The oldies is what we sample. We’re constantly listening to… James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Earth Wind and Fire. The great disco/funk artists from the 70s and 80s… All of our songs have a different story as far as how they began.” Sometimes the guys will find a sample and build a track around it. Other times the bassline comes first. When producing their track ‘Funked Up,’ the goal was to make an edit for a Rick James song just for fun. Three months later it became a breakthrough release.

A unique sound has led to unique support. A wide variety of artists have shown love to The Sponges, ranging from Zeds Dead and Griz, to Malaa and Destructo. For Ryan and Nik, it’s a sign that they’re doing something right, and that their diverse abilities give them tremendous career flexibility. Whether it’s opening for The Knocks to a pop crowd, playing a small dark club, or opening for Griz, The Sponges bring high energy to their live set no matter where you catch them. Ryan and Nik hope to eventually get into the studio with jam bands in order to fully flesh out their funk sound. On the live side, they have long-term goals of creating a hybrid DJ/live set performance inspired by the likes of Gramatik. The Sponges will be putting out a track with Griz in July, and will hopefully be coming to a city near you soon.

R&B And Ribs

Mareux is the decade long electronic solo project from LA based musician and producer Aryan Ashtiani that has sparked an international cult following. His often romantic brand of darkwave, and songs like “The Perfect Girl,” have signaled a cultural paradigm shift across the online world that has united people across diverse subcultures. In describing Mareux’s sound, reviewer Fabrizio Lusso puts it best, “Mareux‘s moody and strongly emotional electronic laden lo-fi approach straddles the line between synth-pop, coldwave and post-punk in a stunning and infectious blend of thick glacial beats, lustrous synth stabs, sparse droning elements, vigorous bleak bass pulsations and a superb passionate voice, flavored by a mournful shadowy-goth feel, a seductive 80s flair, and sometimes subtle groovy r&b inflection.”

Bijou

As G-House powers forward at a menacing pace, BIJOU is the name on everyone’s lips. Instead of setting the bar for the genre, he only raises it higher. Rather than embracing the standard, he constantly pushes the envelope further with a distinct, robust soundscape all his own.

BIJOU’s show-stopping 2016 collaboration with Dr. Fresch, “Hello” marked a major turning point for his career in music and Future Ghetto as a whole. In the same week, his debut on Night Bass thrust BIJOU to the forefront of the G-House movement and he has never looked back.

His records continue to catch fire, gaining massive support from AC Slater, Destructo, Don Diablo, Drezo, Malaa, Party Favor and many more. BIJOU fed the blaze with a series of ambitious releases including “Gotta Shine” featuring Germ, “Revelation” with Dr. Fresch featuring Denzel Curry, and “Louis V” with modern legend and Night Bass champion AC Slater. BIJOU topped off 2018 with his stellar 4-track Super Phat EP, an instant staple in the modern dance scene. Flash-forward to 2019 and his Gangsta Party EP with Dr. Fresch (DND Records) has primed the producer for yet another successful year.

Infusing elements of hip hop and classic house, BIJOU’s sound is live enough for the underground, but mean enough to hold down any main stage. Fans at EDC Vegas in 2017 witnessed this firsthand as he took over kineticFIELD in full form. He followed up in 2018 with a thrilling Australian run and his first headlining U.S. Super Phat Tour. Having gained all the street cred he needs, BIJOU is now looking worldwide.

Keep your eyes and ears locked on BIJOU — fearless leader, G-House supreme — because he’s about to take over!

Le Youth

From Lane 8’s This Never Happened to Anjunabeats, Armada Electronic Elements and many more, Le Youth continues to push the boundaries with each release.

Inspired by the deep and melodic sounds of Lane 8, Ben Böhmer, Sasha, and Eric Prydz, Le Youth has dedicated himself to crafting music that works in every setting; from chilled nights in, or euphoric nights out – and everything in between. His recent forays into collecting vintage studio gear and synthesizers has expanded his horizons, allowing him to rediscover the analog essences of dance music. This, combined with his experimentation with these tools, has led him to develop a distinct and captivating sound.

In 2022, Le Youth took his career to the next level with the release of his debut album “Reminders”, the culmination of a 3-year sonic journey. This was supported by an extensive global touring schedule and sell out run of dates throughout North America. 2023 looks to see even more growth, with an intense music release schedule and a brand new Touring concept called “About Us”, it’s shaping up to be the most exciting year yet in the career of Le Youth.
