Musical trailblazer David Guetta is an international icon. Receiving his 10th GRAMMY nomination in 2021, Guetta was also nominated for 3 Brit Awards, voted the world’s best DJ by DJ Mag ‘Top 100’ for the third time and won the best electronic artist at the MTV Europe Music Awards. He showcased his epic talent by live streaming shows during the lockdown with his iconic United At Home series from Paris’ Louvre Museum, the Burj Khalifa in Dubai, the Icon Brickell in Miami, and a top the Rockefeller Center, raising $2 million for various charities. These last few months he's appeared at many of the biggest festivals, and has been the only DJ in Ibiza to play 2 residencies a week. So far in 2022, he's released a variety of collaborations such as ‘Don’t You Worry’ with Black Eyed Peas and Shakira and celebrated pop anthem ‘Crazy What Love Can Do’. To round off an impressive summer he released his new smash hit 'I'm Good' with Bebe Rexha which is charting everywhere around the globe. He will finish out his year touring across Latin America. A master creative across genres, Guetta has gone from strength to strength with his underground-focused Future Rave project alongside Morten and his uncompromising Jack Back. With over 14 billion global streams, 50 million records sold worldwide and two Grammy awards to his name, David Guetta demonstrates time and time again why he is the most cherished electronic artist of our generation.

Born Tijs Michiel Verwest in the small Dutch city of Breda in 1969, Tiësto went on to become more than just a world-famous electronic musician—he largely created the model for a powerhouse DJ in the 21st century. He got his start in the mid-’80s, when the skeletal sounds of Belgian new beat ruled Holland’s clubs, but it was trance—sleeker and more emotive—that moved him. His first proper DJ mix , 1997’s Magik One (First Flight), showcases his signature style in dreamy synth melodies drawn out above tough but streamlined drum grooves. As trance’s foremost ambassador, he pioneered stadium raving with solo DJ concerts in sports arenas; in 2004, he played for millions at the Summer Olympics opening ceremony in Athens. And his Club Life weekly radio show and mix series, one of trance’s premier global platforms, became synonymous with the genre itself. But you don’t become the world’s No. 1 DJ by sitting still. By 2011’s Club Life: Volume One Las Vegas, Tiësto was following through on a shift that had begun with his 2009 album, Kaleidoscope, a blend of high-energy trance and airy pop melodies that heralded the next big rave revolution: EDM. With 2014’s A Town Called Paradise, he made good on EDM’s anything-goes promise with a collection encompassing soaring toplines, massive drops, and other big-room thrills without turning his back on the aching melodies that made his name. As the decade drew to a close, playful collabs with a new generation of producers who had come up in his wake—The Chainsmokers, Oliver Heldens, DJ Snake, Hardwell—only served to confirm his versatility and cement his legacy.

Sonny Moore aka Skrillex is a record producer, DJ, musician, singer & songwriter from Los Angeles who has won 8 Grammy Awards, been named MTV’s Electronic Dance Music Artist of the Year & holds the record for most Grammys won by an electronic artist. The creative giant began his career as a skateboarding teen who joined iconic post-hardcore band From First To Last in 2004 as lead singer, making two albums with the group before he left to embark on his solo career by age 19. In 2009 he began to distribute his own EP under the name Skrillex for free on Myspace. In 2010 the seminal Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites EP began the explosion of Skrillex into the scene on a worldwide level with Grammys & sold out venues following soon after. His collaborations include Justin Bieber, FKA Twigs, Kanye West, MIA, Ty Dolla $ign, Kid Cudi, Boys Noize, Camila Cabello, A$AP Rocky & countless others. Jack Ü, his project with Diplo, had their eponymous album reach #1 on the US Dance charts with the track “Where Are Ü Now” ft Justin Bieber going 4x platinum. Skrillex linked with Bieber again for the 8x platinum “Sorry”, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100. His label, OWSLA, has launched the careers of some of the most powerful names in electronic music including Marshmello, Zedd, Porter Robinson & Mija. Skrillex changed music and has been hard at work with a body of music made in Los Angeles and Japan over the past 3 years that will continue to shift the landscape of music.

Music has been my passion since I was young, and it still amazes me how far it’s taken me. Honestly, the fact that "Faded" has over 2 billion streams is something I never could have imagined. What truly drives me is the connection I share with my fans, The Walkers. It’s been incredible to see so many of you creating and sharing content inspired by my music. Since 2015, we’ve built the World of Walker together, forming one of the most incredible creative communities in the planet. In November last year I released the first part of my album, Walkerworld, giving you a multi-layered themepark experience, a world tour, Fortnite map, and a new song every month for all of 2024. This year I’ll release the complete version of the album, with lots of new songs. I’m calling it Walkerworld 2.0, and I can’t wait for you guys to hear it. Thank you for being a part of my journey. While waiting, check out some of my tracks here This Is Alan Walker!

GRAMMY-nominated Marshmello's star continues to rise as the famously masked artist breaks boundaries across the industry. With chart-topping singles and collaborations with the likes of Juice WRLD, Halsey, Demi Lovato, Bastille, Kane Brown, Selena Gomez, Khalid, Jonas Brothers, and more, Marshmello has clocked a staggering 13 billion streams across Spotify alone. With over 40 million monthly listeners on the platform, he's one of the top 40 most streamed artists in the world on Spotify and the third-most- subscribed artist on YouTube. Featured on the cover of the Forbes magazine "30 Under 30" issue, Marshmello has proved to not only be an innovative producer, but a forward- thinking businessman. With his own brand of chocolate-filled marshmallows (“Stuffed Puffs”), he’s also launched a children’s entertainment channel, Mellodees. Marshmello collaborated with the Jonas Brothers on their early summers mash “Leave Before You Love Me,” which peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot 100 and was also nominated for the best dance / electronic album at the 2022 Grammy’s. Most recently, Marshmello teamed up with Khalid to release “Numb,” which has steadily climbed the Billboard Hot 100.

Compared to many of his chart-topping EDM peers, DJ Snake keeps a relatively low profile: He doesn’t do many interviews, and he’s rarely photographed without a pair of oversized black sunglasses. Instead, the French-Algerian producer (born William Grigahcine in 1986) lets his music do the talking. With a range that extends from earthshaking trap to lilting tropical house, DJ Snake doesn’t have an obvious stylistic signature; instead, his fingerprints are audible in details like precision-tooled snares, vividly tweaked vocal samples, and an almost three-dimensional approach to sound design. Raised in Paris, the former graffiti artist and hip-hop DJ first broke through by working on Lady Gaga’s “Government Hooker,” but it was his 2013 song “Turn Down for What”—a battering ram of a trap anthem made all the more antic by Lil Jon’s ranted, titular refrain—that kicked open the doors to the world stage. Two years later, teaming up with Major Lazer and MØ, he showed a more sensitive side on “Lean On,” which paired slo-mo house with crystalline finger-snaps and one of the year’s most infectious choruses. Since then, on his 2016 debut album, Encore, and elsewhere, he’s continued to expand the limits of his sound—giving Justin Bieber the world’s most opulent air mattress to fall into on the buoyant “Let Me Love You,” or unspooling slinky, acoustically tinged Afrobeats for Nigerian singer Niniola on “Maradona Riddim.” It’s an ironic title: Diego Maradona is one of the world’s most flamboyant figures in soccer, while DJ Snake, true to his namesake, is as stealthy as they come—you never know where he’s going to strike next.

Grammy Award-winning and Billboard Chart topping artist/producer duo, The Chainsmokers, have evolved into a dominating musical force with a diverse repertoire of songs that have led them to become one of music’s hottest recording artists. Comprised of Alex Pall and Drew Taggart, their signature sound deftly reaches across indie, progressive and pop realms.

Alok uses the term "Brazilian Bass" to describe his sunny, feel-good mixture of restrained tech-house and festival-friendly EDM. Born Alok Achkar Peres Petrillo, he is the son of DJ Ekanta and DJ Swarup, two of the most well-known psytrance DJs in Brazil. Alok first began producing psytrance with his twin brother, Bhaskar, releasing material under the name Logica. He started releasing solo tracks in 2012, venturing into house rather than trance. Keeping up his productivity, particularly with a series of Brazilian Bass events, Alok was receiving recognition as the country's best house DJ by 2014. He appeared in DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs poll for the first time in 2015. Alok had an even bigger year in 2016, as his Spinnin' Records-released single "Hear Me Now" (co-produced by Bruno Martini and featuring vocalist Zeeba) was a huge international hit. Its video was a viral success on YouTube, and it charted in over a dozen countries. Several singles and collaborations were released in 2017, including "Never Let Me Go" (the follow-up single to "Hear Me Now"), which again featured Bruno Martini and Zeeba. Another Zeeba-assisted track, "Ocean," appeared in 2018, as did collaborations with Gavin James ("Innocent") and Zelva ("I Miss U"), among other singles. ~ Paul Simpson

With a name that echoes through the halls of music history, Robin Schulz has amassed a staggering array of achievements that have solidified his status as one of the industry's most successful artists. Across the past years, he has garnered over 800 Gold, Platinum, and Diamond awards in 30 countries. Now, two years after the release of his highly acclaimed album "IIII," the Grammy-nominated DJ and producer is ready to unveil his fifth studio album, "PINK." Born and raised in a medium-sized German city with a population somewhere in the 160,000s and an excitement level that can be described as middle-rate at best, Schulz has transcended boundaries and become a global sensation. Traveling the world nonstop to play packed clubs, the world’s biggest festivals or his annual summer residency at Pacha, Ibiza, he captivates audiences with his electrifying performances. Schulz's fairytale-like success story began in 2014 when he first ascended to the top of worldwide singles charts with his acclaimed remix of "Waves (feat. Mr. Probz)" and landed his breakthrough global uber-hit “Prayer in C (feat. Lilly Wood & The Prick)”. “Sugar (feat. Francesco Yates)” followed shortly after in 2015. That song recently made its entry into Spotify’s Billions Club. His immense popularity is further highlighted by over 20 million sales and an astonishing 12 billion streams worldwide.

A superstar DJ, sought-after producer, taste-making label owner, and wizard behind Major Lazer, Diplo (aka Diplodocus, Wes Diplo, and Wes Gully) launched his career on the fringes of dance music. With his mash-up mixtapes, he found and created a sound where his musical tastes -- '80s pop, electronica, Dirty South hip-hop, and his major influence, Miami bass music -- intersect. His attention-grabbing projects Hollertronix, with partner DJ Low Budget, and the Piracy Funds Terrorism, Vol. 1 mixtape, with British-Sri Lankan MC M.I.A., made a heavy impact on the alternative electro-pop scene, amassing rave reviews from music critics and indie kids alike. Later, his Mad Decent imprint presented the edge of pop, hip-hop, and dance music while his conceptual Major Lazer project mixed dancehall with rave culture and toured the globe as a live-party sound system. By the late 2010s, super duos with Skrillex (Jack Ü) and Mark Ronson (Silk City) both yielded Grammy wins for collaborations with Justin Bieber and Dua Lipa, respectively. Diplo was born Thomas Wesley Pentz in Tupelo, Mississippi. Although he lived in a few different cities in the South, he mainly grew up in South Florida. He spent his youth in his father's bait shop and fixated on manatees, alligators, and dinosaurs with hopes of becoming a paleontologist. However, he wound up pursuing an education in film studies, starting at a couple Florida colleges but finishing up his undergraduate degree in Philadelphia at Temple University in 2003. Before his move to Philadelphia, Pentz had moved temporarily to Japan to escape daily life in America. He sent a demo tape of his beat concoctions to Will Ashon, founder of U.K. independent hip-hop label Big Dada Records, and once signed to the label, he relocated to Philadelphia. To support himself during and after graduating from Temple, Pentz took on a few different jobs in Philadelphia: social worker, after-school mentor, movie theater employee, and gig-by-gig DJ. He was barely able to pay the rent, and the frustration was stunting his musical development (although he does credit one of his musical epiphanies to the after-school students who exposed him to crunk and Baltimore club music). Thus, Diplo and like-minded DJ Low Budget pooled their resources to start up their own club nights in Philadelphia, which they branded Hollertronix. It simply began as a fun night of genre-warping dance music, but blossomed into an underground subculture, drawing out crowds from all over the East Coast. Under the Hollertronix moniker, Diplo and Budget released the highly praised Never Scared mixtape; it was listed as one of the New York Times' top albums of 2003. The following year, Big Dada released Diplo's solo debut album, Florida, a more downtempo piece focusing on melody and instrumentals that was a departure from the melee of mashed-up vocals and beats. His unrelenting work ethic produced a considerable number of acclaimed mix CDs and 12" records; however, none of them accumulated more interest and Internet chatter than the 2004 Piracy Funds Terrorism, Vol. 1 mixtape that introduced M.I.A. outside of his U.K. borders. Developing a yearning to produce more worldly music, he also began to throw his energy behind the Brazilian youth- and street-based music known as funk carioca (also referred to as baile funk), a derivation of Miami bass music. So, it was no surprise that when he established his own label, Mad Decent Records, around 2005; his first signee was the funk carioca group Bondo do Role. In 2009, the label signed a distribution deal with Fontana and Downtown Records. Their first collaborative release was by Major Lazer, a fictional Jamaican bounty hunter that was the brainchild of Diplo and DJ Switch. Major Lazer's debut album, Guns Don't Kill People... Lazers Do, appeared in 2009, the same year as the Diplo remix collection Decent Work for Decent Pay: Selected Works, Vol. 1. In 2010, Mad Decent began their Blow Your Head compilation series with the unmixed collection Blow Your Head: Diplo Presents Dubstep. Mix CDs (the reggae-filled 2011 release Riddimentary), EPs (2012's Express Yourself and 2013's Revolution), a Major Lazer album (2013's Free the Universe), and production work for others (including Alex Care's "Too Close" and Usher's "Climax") took Diplo to 2014 and that year's aptly titled compilation Random White Dude Be Everywhere. Filled with recent tracks, the set found the producer favoring the trap music style, the style heard on Baauer's hit single "Harlem Shake," which itself was a Mad Decent release. In 2015, he co-produced multiple tracks on Madonna's release Rebel Heart, and worked with Skrillex on the album Skrillex and Diplo Present Jack Ü. Both Jack Ü and its hit collaboration with Justin Bieber, "Where Are Ü Now," picked up Grammys. Major Lazer's LP Peace Is the Mission also landed that year, topping the U.S. dance chart and peaking at number 12 on the Billboard 200. In 2017, Diplo recruited Travis Scott, Camila Cabello, Quavo, J Balvin, Sean Paul, Busy Signal, and more for Major Lazer's Know No Better EP. That same year, Diplo issued a handful of singles under his own name, including "Imperfections" and "Swerve" with Starrah, and "Get It Right" featuring MØ. The latter track found its way onto 2018's California EP, which featured additional guests Lil Yachty, Desiigner, Santigold, Lil Xan, and Trippie Redd. That same year, Diplo teamed with fellow producer Mark Ronson to form the duo Silk City. Their hit collaboration with Dua Lipa, "Electricity," helped him score his third Grammy in 2019 for Best Dance Recording. In April 2019, his collaborative effort Labrinth, Sia & Diplo Present LSD arrived, followed in May by his Higher Ground EP featuring guests Tove Lo and Kah-Lo. Also that year, Diplo issued several country-flavored singles under the moniker Thomas Wesley, including "So Long" with Cam, "Heartless" with Morgan Wallen, and "Lonely" with the Jonas Brothers, followed by "Do Si Do" featuring Blanco Brown in April 2020. All of those tracks would appear on his country-inflected album Chapter 1: Snake Oil, which was released in May. ~ Cyril Cordor

A progressive trance DJ and producer whose cinematic sound is influenced by synth pioneers like Klaus Schulze and Jean Michel Jarre, Armin van Buuren enjoys worldwide recognition and a frantic schedule that takes him all over the globe. Born on December 25, 1976 in Leiden, Holland, Armin became interested in music at an early age (his father was an avid record buyer). A close friend introduced him to the world of dance music, and the Dutch DJ and remixer Ben Liebrand quickly became his main inspiration. It led van Buuren to investigate the roots of the electronic music he was becoming fond of, and numerous Jarre and Schulze CDs were acquired. Computers and turntables were also purchased, and creating his own music became a priority. In 1995, van Buuren attended Leiden University, and a local student club provided the venue for his first DJ gigs. The same year he was fortunate enough to have some demos included on compilations, and when the money came in, it was rolled back into producing 12"s. Cyber Records released his first hit, "Blue Fear," in 1995, and by 1999 his "Communication" was successful enough to get him signed to AM:PM. He also formed his own label, Armind, in 1999 and met Dave Lewis, a man responsible for jump-starting the careers of DJ Tiësto and Ferry Corsten. A collaboration with Tiësto yielded his biggest hit yet on Armind, "Eternity," and marathon five-hour sets brought him more attention. High-profile remixes of Madison Avenue's "Don't Call Me Baby" and Wamdue Project's "King of My Castle" followed, and numerous mix CDs were released on United Recordings. By 2002 he'd placed number five in DJ Magazine's Top 100 and was hosting his own weekly show on the Dutch ID&T radio station. By the end of 2003 he found time to set the worldwide record for longest DJ set (12 and a half hours at a club in The Hague), finish his law degree, and release his first non-mix CD, 76. Shivers followed in 2005, with Imagine arriving in 2008. His 2010 effort, Mirage, featured singer Sophie Ellis-Bextor along with fellow producers BT and Ferry Corsten. Van Buuren returned in 2013 -- after numerous mix albums, including his annual additions to the A State of Trance series -- with his fifth studio album, Intense. The album was expanded in 2015 as Intense: The Most Intense Edition, a set that turned the original LP into a four-CD/one-DVD box featuring remixes and recordings of live gigs. His collaboration with Cosmic Gate, "Embargo," landed that same year. The track would appear on Van Buuren's sixth studio album, the Dutch chart-topping Embrace, which also featured Gavin DeGraw, Hardwell, and Mr. Probz. Over the course of the following years, he continued his yearly State of Trance series, climbing to his 14th installment, State of Trance 2017. ~ David Jeffries

Making the world smaller by making the party bigger: this is Major Lazer's mission. Since its debut in 2009, the trio led by Diplo has consistently affirmed its desire to celebrate cultures, to uplift artists and genres from around the world and to create a new kind of electronic music. The breadth of international artists that we find across Major Lazer’s albums—from Guns Don't Kill People...Lazers Do, to their latest Music Is The Weapon—illustrates this ethos. This desire to free oneself from codes, to break down barriers, is at the heart of Music is the Weapon. Released in October 2020 this new LP is carried by a list of prestigious names, with universes that could not be more varied. Among them: reggaeton superstar J. Balvin, American rap queen Nicki Minaj, in addition to French Montana, Skip Marley, Khalid, Mr Eazi, Nucleya, Paloma Mami, Anitta, and Shenseea , the new star of Jamaican dancehall and many more.. By drawing together the international influences of reggaeton and afrobeats, Music is the Weapon is a record in tune with its time, whose frenetic rhythms marry genres with ever more power; dance music to dancehall, pop to dembow, soca to hip-hop. It is an album that projects us to the four corners of the globe, and whose title takes on an almost political meaning: at the end of a year marked by isolation and the restriction of our freedoms, music seems to be a considerable weapon, more capable than ever of bringing us together across borders.

In the space of two years Meduza became the biggest global streaming Italian artist in the history of music in Italy. Their debut release, Piece Of Your Heart featuring Goodboys , has now seen over 2 billion streams globally, reaching the top 10 of the official charts in 20 countries and was a 2019 GRAMMY nomination in the best dance recording category. The follow up single, Lose Control with Goodboys and Becky Hill, made an unprecedented impact, reaching the UK Top40 in its first week, also notching upward of 2 billion cumulative streams. These headline successes are also bolstered by an impressive catalogue of hand picked remixes for the likes of MK, Ed Sheeran and Faithless, displaying Meduza’s ability to create a stand out club releases whenever called upon. MEDUZA's 3rd single "Paradise" featuring Dermot Kennedy continued the trend with gold and platinum certifications in 24 countries with over a billion streams across all platforms. Tell It To My Heart feat Hozier rounded off 2021, reaching the UK charts as well as global accclaim. Their brand new single Bad Memories (feat. Elley Duhé & FAST BOY) is charging up the charts globally and looks set to continue the meteoric rise of the Italian trio. The touring diary for MEDUZA continues to display its insatiable demand for the hottest act in electronic music from performing at the likes of Elrow, Warehouse Project (Manchester), Green Valley Brazil and EDC. Meduza continue to be the benchmark for dance music, globally.

Few DJs have risen faster than Martin Garrix. In 2013, when he was just 16, the Dutch dance-music fan (born Martijn Garritsen in May 1996) paid for his ticket to Miami’s Ultra Music Festival, along with 330,000 other attendees; the following year, he performed there—and also at Coachella, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Tomorrowland. The catalyst was his breakout hit, “Animals,” an electro-house anthem that sent shockwaves through EDM, setting the tone for several years’ worth of big-room bangers. (It also got the attention of Justin Bieber manager Scooter Braun, who scooped up the teenaged producer for his roster.) By the time Garrix was 20, DJ Magazine named him the world’s No. 1 DJ. Since then, he has straddled dance cred and pop crossover, collaborating with fellow DJs Dillon Francis, Hardwell, and Tiësto (Garrix's mentor and early champion) as well as Usher, Ed Sheeran, and Dua Lipa. He’s come a long way from the savagery of “Animals”: One of his signature moves, in songs like “In the Name of Love,” with Bebe Rexha, or “Ocean,” with Khalid, is something like the EDM equivalent of the power ballad: taking a silky, sensitive mood and building up the synths and drums until they sound all but indestructible.

International DJ, producer and remixer Tino Piontek aka Purple Disco Machine has been on a whirlwind of a musical journey since the 2009 conception of his highly successful disco house music project...

Anyma, classe 2002, coltiva sin da piccola il sogno della musica, con la sua Fender sempre tra le mani e le cuffie stracolme di R&B. Di lì a poco inizia ad avvicinarsi alla scrittura e ai live nei locali, per poi far uscire i suoi primi progetti Urban/Pop. Con una voce angelica cerca di tirare fuori la sua anima e arrivare a chiunque abbia un cuore.

In 2008, three visionary artists, Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso, and Axwell formed Swedish House Mafia, rewriting the rules of electronic music. They infused house music with hip-hop swagger, rock 'n' roll attitude, and cinematic grandeur. Their legendary live performances elevated dance music from clubs to arenas and stadiums. They made history headlining Madison Square Garden in 2011 and headlining Coachella with The Weeknd in 2022, even partnering with Ikea to extend their unique aesthetic to a broader audience. Their track record included consecutive GRAMMY® nominations for hits like "Save the World" (2012) and "Don't You Worry Child" (2013). Rolling Stone hailed them as "redefining rave culture," while NME dubbed them "the rockstars of dance music." Following a record-breaking One Last Tour and a five-year hiatus, they returned as surprise Ultra Music Festival headliners in 2018. After the Save The World Reunion Tour, they finally fulfilled their musical destiny with the 2022 debut album "Paradise Again" on Republic Records. The album topped charts worldwide and featured a hit collaboration with The Weeknd on "A Moth To A Flame." Which now has garnered more than 800 millions streams across platforms. Additionally, their collaboration with Fred again on "Turn On the Lights" added another shining success to their illustrious career. Their return marks an exciting new chapter, promising more groundbreaking music to come.

Whether behind the piano in his studio or headlining a sold-out festival, Kygo quietly reaffirms his status as a prodigious talent, forward-thinking producer, dynamic DJ, and influential global superstar. The Norwegian musician born Kyrre Gørvell-Dahll first introduced himself in 2013 and quietly became one of the most ubiquitous hitmakers in the world while emerging as Spotify’s “Breakout Artist of 2015.” “Firestone” ft. Conrad Sewell and “Stole the Show” ft. Parson James help cement Kygo as “the fastest artist to reach 1 billion streams on Spotify.” In the wake of his chart-topping 2016 full- length debut Cloud Nine, he delivered memorable performances on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Good Morning America, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, and The Ellen DeGeneres Show. Plus, he notably performed “Carry Me” during the Closing Ceremony of the Rio Olympics. In 2017, he earned one of his biggest hits with the multiplatinum “It Ain’t Me” [feat. Selena Gomez], going Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 and clocking nearly 1 billion Spotify streams. He maintained his momentum on the Stargazing EP and second album, Kids In Love. The ensuing Kids In Love Tour canvased four continents and sold out arenas. In 2019, Kygo unleashed “Higher Love” with Whitney Houston and generated another 1 billion combined streams and views in addition to leaving his imprint on a classic. He heralded his 2020 third full-length album Golden Hour with the anthems “Like It Is” and “I’ll Wait.”

Peggy Gou is a South Korean-born DJ, producer, and songwriter based in Berlin. During the 2010s, she became internationally renowned for her energetic DJ sets, which dreamily flow through various styles of techno, house, and electro. A 2019 volume of the DJ-Kicks series demonstrated her eclectic approach. Her own tracks, such as the acclaimed 2018 single "It Makes You Forget (Itgehane)" and 2021's "I Go," are vibrant, joyous productions that echo vintage deep house and post-disco without sounding like throwbacks. Taking her sound in a more accessible direction, she released the dance-pop single "(It Goes Like) Nanana" and the Lenny Kravitz collaboration "I Believe in Love Again" in 2023. Both tracks were featured on I Hear You, her 2024 debut album. Gou seemed to appear out of nowhere in 2016, releasing no less than four 12" EPs of bright, slightly hazy house tracks during the course of the year. In actuality, she had been producing and DJing for several years -- she learned to beatmatch in Korea in 2009 and resumed the hobby a couple years later, when she was attending the London College of Fashion. After racking up gigs during the next few years, as well as moving to Berlin, she made her breakthrough in 2016, releasing two Art of War EPs on Radio Slave's Rekids imprint, "Day Without Yesterday" on Phonica White, and Seek for Maktoop on Technicolour. She also played dozens of gigs across the globe, including dates with Moodymann, the Blessed Madonna, Jackmaster, and others. Following an even busier 2017, which included her first American tour and a month-long BBC Radio 1 residency, Gou returned to the studio. Her Once EP was released by Ninja Tune in 2018, led by "It Makes You Forget (Itgehane)," a catchy single featuring Gou's Korean-language vocals. "Travelling Without Arriving" was issued by Phonica White soon afterward. In 2019, she released the two-song Moment EP on her own Gudu Records, as well as her first mix CD, a volume of !K7's long-running DJ-Kicks series. She was featured on "Jigoo," the lead track from Maurice Fulton's Gudu-issued Earth EP, in 2020. The following year, Gou released the downtempo single "Nabi" (featuring OHHYUK) and the electro-disco tune "I Go." Remixes of the song, by Soulwax, DJ Koze, and Fulton, appeared in 2022. She remixed "Can't Get You Out of My Head" by Kylie Minogue the same year. Gou made her mainstream breakthrough in 2023, when "(It Goes Like) Nanana," a Euro-dance-influenced single issued by XL, went viral, eventually topping club and pop charts around the world. She followed the hit with "I Believe in Love Again," a collaboration with Lenny Kravitz. I Hear You, Gou's debut full-length, appeared in 2024, including both previous singles as well as the trancey, festival-sized anthem "1+1=11." ~ Paul Simpson

With no introduction needed, multi gold and platinum certified DJ & Producer HUGEL has surely made a name for himself in the music industry. After releasing his first gold certified collaboration with Robin Schulz ‘I Believe I’m Fine in 2017, he proved that he kept working hard to stay on top. In 2018 HUGEL released his famous remix of ‘Bella Ciao’ (official German summer hit 2018) that reached Platinum status in GSA and Gold in France as well as his single WTF that reached Gold in Germany and Austria. His releases ‘House Music’ and 'They Know' that followed in 2019 went straight to the top of the Beatport charts, and clearly showed that HUGEL does not only deliver radio and Spotify chart breakers but also has a deep passion for House & Tech House. With over 760 million total streams on all platforms worldwide, he is definitely one of the hottest current acts. HUGEL has not only remixed songs for and collaborated with top billboard artists such as Charlie Puth or J Balvin, but is also on the line-ups of the biggest festivals in the world including the Main Stage at Tomorrowland or Parookaville. After having been the opening act of David Guetta’s European Arena Tour as well as monthly resident at Ushuaia’s party BIG by David Guetta and legendary Pacha, HUGEL is now playing his third US and Canada Tour this summer, playing events such as Hangout and Firefly Music Festival, Lavo (NYC), Toybox (Toronto), Prysm (Chicago), or New City Gas (Montreal).

Belgian producer Lost Frequencies has achieved massive international success with his sunny yet wistful dance tracks, remixes, and collaborations. Beginning with his 2014 breakout hit "Are You with Me," a tropical house track based on a country song by Easton Corbin, he topped the charts in his home country five times, and released more than a dozen tracks that have been certified gold, platinum, or diamond. The song appeared on his 2016 full-length Less Is More, along with other major hits like "Reality" (featuring Janieck Devy) and a cover of Haddaway's "What Is Love." 2019's Alive and Feeling Fine included further smashes like "Crazy" (with Zonderling) and "Melody" (featuring James Blunt). After releasing the EP Cup of Beats in 2020, Lost Frequencies scored further hits with 2021's "Rise" and "Where Are You Now" (with Calum Scott), 2022's "Questions" (with James Arthur), and 2023's country-infused "The Feeling." Felix de Laet began creating homemade remixes as soon as he got his first laptop, and started using the moniker Lost Frequencies in 2014. His original productions ranged from jazzy deep house to downtempo and trap beats. Lost Frequencies signed to Armada Music, the Dutch trance label co-founded by Armin van Buuren, and his first release was "Are You with Me," a dance-pop song built around a sample from the identically titled song by American country singer Easton Corbin. The track was an immediate hit, spending several months on dance charts throughout Europe. Lost Frequencies remixed singles by Armin van Buuren and Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, and released his second single, "Reality," in 2015. Featuring Dutch singer/songwriter Janieck Devy, the song was another huge hit, topping charts in several countries. Lost Frequencies issued his debut full-length, Less Is More, the following year. The album featured his previously released hits as well as "Beautiful Life" (featuring Sandro Cavazza) and "All or Nothing" with Axel Ehnström. Other guests included Jake Reese, Nick Schilder, and Joakim Wilow. A deluxe version arrived in 2017, adding additional track "Here with You" with Netsky. A steady stream of singles carried de Laet into 2019, including "Crazy" with Zonderling (the producer's fifth Belgian chart-topper), "Melody" with James Blunt, and "Recognise" with Flynn. All three tracks later appeared on his second full-length, Alive and Feeling Fine, which was released in October of that year. The EP Cup of Beats appeared on de Laet's Found Frequencies imprint in 2020. It featured the hits "Love to Go" (with Zonderling and Kelvin Jones) and "Don't Leave Me Now" (with Mathieu Koss) as well as "One More Night," featuring Easton Corbin. In 2021, Lost Frequencies released "Rise," which hit the Belgian Top Ten. He then collaborated with British singer/songwriter Calum Scott on the song "Where Are You Now," which became a major worldwide hit, charting in over two-dozen countries. "Questions," a collaboration with James Arthur, followed in 2022. The country-meets-electronica single "The Feeling" arrived in June 2023. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi

Chicago, Detroit, London, Berlin—all hallowed centres of dance music. Nick van de Wall, on the other hand, hails from tiny Spijkenisse, outside Rotterdam, and his rise is a reminder of the Netherlands’ outsized influence on electronic music. De Wall, better known as Afrojack, began DJing in his teens, and by 2007, when he was just 20, he was putting out mischievous, muscular house bangers in the style called “dirty Dutch.” Early singles like “In Your Face” were full of buzzing synths and bore an unmistakable Caribbean influence in the dembow-flavoured drums. (De Wall has familial roots in Suriname, a former Dutch colony in northeast South America.) Afrojack made his global breakthrough in 2010, just as bigger riffs and brighter melodies were reshaping EDM the world over, with “Take Over Control”, an anthem pairing slippery synth squeals with Eva Simons’ sweeter, R&B-influenced melody. A proper earworm, it tunneled its way straight to the heart of pop music. Afrojack brought the same slinky sense of fun to Pitbull’s No. 1 single “Give Me Everything”, which he cowrote and produced, and David Guetta’s “Hey Mama”, featuring Nicki Minaj and Bebe Rexha; his guestbook of A-list collaborators also includes Madonna, Chris Brown and Beyoncé. At the same time, Afrojack’s work with Martin Garrix and Steve Aoki reinforced his dedication to peak-time raving at its most gleefully straightforward: just pounding kick drums, a giddy, drunken synth riff and that unmistakable swing in his snares.

A superstar Dutch DJ who helped shape the EDM explosion of 2012-2013, Robbert van de Corput became Hardwell when he began DJ'ing at the age of 13. Watching the massive dance parties broadcast on MTV encouraged the teen to learn how to mix, and he soon became interested in remixing and working on his own productions. His remixing debut came in 2006 when his version of the Underdog Project's "Summer Jam" hit the clubs, then 2007 found him remixing the stadium techno act Scooter ("Lass Uns Tanzen") and collaborating with fellow DJ Greatski on the track "Never Knew Love." Two years later his bootleg mash-up "Show Me Be" would pit Steve Angello against Laidback Luke for a dancefloor hit, while 2010 saw him drop the first volume of his mix series Revealed. In 2011 he collaborated with Tiësto on the single "Zero 76," which, when combined with remix work for Dada Life ("Fight Club Is Closed [It's Time for Rock'n'Roll]"), Avicii ("Levels"), and Taio Cruz ("Hangover"), added up to his breakout year. In 2012 he would crack the Top Ten of DJ Mag's Top 100 DJ list and top Billboard's dance chart with remixes of Rihanna ("Where Have You Been") and the Wanted ("Chasing the Sun"). His single "Three Triangles (Losing My Religion)" arrived in 2013 along with a fourth volume of Revealed. His full-length debut album United We Are was released in early 2015, with an album of remix versions by DallasK, Vicetone, Bingo Players, and Pep & Rash, amongst others, following later in the same year. The seventh installment of the Revealed series was issued in 2016. That same year, collaborations with Blasterjaxx, Jay Sean, Afrojack, and Craig David appeared, as well as remixes for the Chainsmokers and Jewelz & Sparks. In 2017, he released the single "Creatures of the Night" with pop singer Austin Mahone as well as the eighth installment of Revealed. 2018 saw a deluge of material including the EP Hardwell & Friends, Vol. 3, collaborations with Steve Aoki, Maddix, and Wildstylez, and the full-length Revealed, Vol. 9. ~ David Jeffries

At a young age, Kungs learned DJ has only one goal: to make people dance. Each of his projects will now be designed according to this philosophy. His first single, "This Girl" (2016), is the perfect illustration. Number 1 in dozens of countries, 14 times diamond record, seventh most Shazamed track in history...

Imanbek Zeikenov was born in Aksu, Kazakhstan in 2000, and started playing guitar when he was eight.

Officially released three years after the original version of the song, Imanbek's club-friendly remix exploded in popularity, partially due to exposure through TikTok, where it received over four billion plays during a single month (April 2020). The track topped the charts in several countries, including Australia, Canada, and the U.K., and reached number four on the Billboard 200, eventually earning a Grammy nomination for Best Remixed Recording. A second remix of the track appeared, featuring a guest verse by J Balvin. Imanbek continued releasing material at a prolific rate throughout 2020, including the solo single "Dope" (on Spinnin' Records imprint Dharma Worldwide) and collaborations with Tory Lanez ("Blackout"), Afrojack and Gia Koka ("Hey Baby"), and Marshmello and Usher ("Too Much"), among many others.

Known for a pop-oriented synthesis of numerous styles, including house, garage, dubstep, and bass, along with well-timed vocal collaborations, Disclosure are one of dance music's most successful production teams. Although they broke through while the path to commercial success was shortening for acts classified as EDM (electronic dance music), the duo, consisting of English siblings Guy and Howard Lawrence, distinguished themselves with a deeper awareness of underground dance music dating back to the disco era. After debuting in 2010, the pair quickly accelerated to making lustrous, impeccably assembled pop songs, led by the global 2012 hit "Latch," featuring the then-obscure Sam Smith. The approach continued with the chart-topping, Grammy-nominated albums Settle and Caracal, issued respectively in 2013 and 2015, which added the likes of AlunaGeorge, Eliza Doolittle, Mary J. Blige, and the Weeknd to their circle. They returned in 2018 with a series of singles and in 2020 offered their third album, the similarly guest-heavy Energy. Their first commercially issued mix, an entry into the DJ-Kicks series, appeared in 2021, and they continued their return to purely club-driven music with their first independently issued album, 2023's Alchemy, and singles such as 2024's "Arachnids." Children of musicians, siblings Guy and Howard Lawrence absorbed music throughout their upbringing in the town of Reigate in Surrey, England. They learned to play multiple instruments as kids and studied music at Reigate College, all the while immersing themselves in hip-hop and house, as well as dubstep and bass, the latest developments in the U.K. hardcore continuum. Already acquainted with soul, funk, and disco from their household environment, the siblings traced current underground club music back to '80s Chicago house and Detroit techno, connected those developments to '90s U.K. garage, and applied their numerous inspirations to a modern hybrid sound that grew increasingly distinctive. Early material uploaded to MySpace in 2010 led to interest from the Moshi Moshi label, which released the scruffy dubstep-oriented tracks "Offline Dexterity" and "Street Light Chronicle" as a single later that year. The Lawrences continued to find their footing through mid-2012, a period during which they released singles and EPs for Transparent, Make Mine, and Greco-Roman. The last of those independent outlets issued The Face EP, the first Disclosure release to feature vocalists instead of processed vocal samples. Bolstered by a U.K. deal with the Universal-distributed PMR label, Disclosure made a commercial breakthrough with "Latch," an atmospheric and loping ballad featuring co-songwriting from Jimmy Napes and a bursting lead vocal from Sam Smith. More pop-oriented than Disclosure's previous output, the song sent the Lawrences and the previously obscure Smith into the mainstream. Released in October 2012, it peaked at number 11 during a 55-week stay on the U.K. chart. By the time parent album Settle was out the following May, the duo scored additional hits with the AlunaGeorge collaboration "White Noise," which went to number two, and the Eliza Doolittle showcase "You & Me," which peaked at number six. In the U.S., where the duo secured another Universal distribution deal via Cherrytree and Interscope, "Latch" became a sleeper hit. It first entered the Hot 100 in April 2014, reached number seven during a chart run of 19 weeks, and eventually went multi-platinum. Settle topped the U.K. album chart and the U.S. electronic chart. It was nominated for the U.K. Mercury Prize and in the U.S. was nominated for a 2014 Grammy Award in the category of Best Dance/Electronic Album. The Lawrences' stateside stock continued to rise. They produced a pair of tracks on Mary J. Blige's The London Sessions, released in late 2014. Only a couple weeks later, they received their second Grammy nomination, this time in the category of Best Dance Recording, for a Blige-fronted version of "F for You" that appeared on a deluxe edition of Settle. All this success, plus a world tour, led to increased collaborative star power for the second Disclosure album. Released in September 2015 on PMR in the U.K. and Capitol in the U.S., Caracal featured guest lead vocals from Gregory Porter, Sam Smith, Lorde, and the Weeknd on its singles, and affirmed the duo's affinity for R&B with strong cuts fronted by Kwabs, Miguel, and Nao. Like the debut, Caracal topped the U.K. pop and U.S. electronic charts. Additionally, it debuted in the Top Ten of the Billboard 200 and was up that year for the Best Dance/Electronica Album Grammy. Following Moog for Love, a three-track EP highlighted by "Feel Like I Do" with Al Green, the Lawrences took a break. They returned in 2018 with a slew of singles starting with "Ultimatum," a sparkling collaboration with Fatoumata Diawara that led to the brothers' fourth Grammy nomination. The following year saw the duo hit the Top Ten in the U.K. and U.S. as producers of Khalid's "Talk," which led to yet another Grammy nomination, this time for Record of the Year, one of the "big four" categories. Khalid was then the featured artist on "Know Your Worth," Disclosure's first single of 2020. A collaboration with Aminé and Slowthai ("My High") and another one with Diawara ("Douha [Mali Mal]") increased anticipation for the August release of Disclosure's third proper album, Energy, which appeared on multiple Billboard charts. Having fulfilled their major-label contract, the duo issued the five-track EP Never Enough independently in 2021. They also mixed the 75th volume of !K7's long-running DJ-Kicks series, focusing on deep, shimmering house and ending the set with an atmospheric jungle track. They established a label called Apollo Records and released singles with Zedd ("You've Got to Let Go If You Want to Be Free") and RAYE ("Waterfall") in 2022. Alchemy, a full-length with no featured guests or samples, appeared in 2023, shifting the focus from dance-pop to funky house and garage, with one drum'n'bass track ("Higher Than Ever Before," co-produced by Cirkut). This track received a nomination in the category of Best Dance/Electronic Recording for the 2024 Grammy Awards. Following Alchemy (The Remixes), the duo's first original material of 2024 was the celebratory disco-house single "She's Gone, Dance On," which charted in the U.K. This was followed by the Chris Lake collaboration "in2minds" and the darker, more mystical "Arachnids." ~ Andy Kellman

There is no better place to start delving into the rich history of the Benassi career than with his international blockbuster, “Satisfaction” and its game-changing music video became his launch pad into stardom. Created with his cousin and producer, Alle Benassi, and inspired by the car horns outside an open street facing window, this single catapulted into the charts with a #1 in France, #2 in the UK and Germany. The next few years for Benny were a culmination of successes, whether it be the major festivals he went on the play (Coachella, EDC, Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland to name a few). The same year he won a Grammy Award for his ground breaking remix of Public Enemy “Bring The Noise” further catapulting the Benassi name into stardom. In 2011, Benny teamed up with a star-studded album cast for his album Electroman which featured T-Pain, Kelis, Jean-Baptsiste and Apl.de.ap amongst others and most famously Gary Go with his chart-topping single “Cinema”. The Skrillex remix of “Cinema” not only went Gold in the US and platinum in Australia and Canada but won the Benassi’s another Grammy whilst holding firm in the iTunes top 10 dance chart for over 6 months. Benny Benassi combined talents with Chris Brown to create one of the biggest cross-over dance records of its time with “Beautiful People”. 2016 saw Benny released his first album in five years Danceaholic, led by the hit summer anthem “Paradise”, once again with Chris Brown.

French electronic music producer and DJ Christophe Le Friant has built a career under the Bob Sinclar moniker, spreading the sounds of French house to international ears from the late '90s and beyond. In the midst of a mid-2000s chart run -- with his trio of Western Dream, Soundz of Freedom, and Born in '69 all certified gold in his native France -- his song "Love Generation" topped charts across the globe in 2005 and he received a Grammy nomination the year after for another chart-topper, "World, Hold On (Children of the Sky)" featuring Steve Edwards. He continued to release charting singles into the 2010s, including the gold-certified chart hits "Feel the Vibe" and "I Believe." In the 2022, "World, Hold On" was reworked by Fisher and became a hit in Australia and the U.K. In addition to making music, he is also the head of the French label Yellow Productions, which he founded in 1993 with Alain Ho. Le Friant made his debut as Chris the French Kiss in the '80s, creating downtempo hip-hop project the Mighty Bop and his acid jazz Réminiscence Quartet. In the late '90s, he started performing as Bob Sinclar (named after a character in the well-known French film Le Magnifique), issuing his debut effort Paradise in 1998. The set charted in France, New Zealand, and the U.K. Sinclar followed in 2000 with Champs Elysees, which was certified gold in France. After 2003's III, he stormed charts across Europe with 2006's Western Dream, home to hit singles "Love Generation," "World, Hold On," "Rock This Party," and "Tennessee." He quickly followed with Soundz of Freedom in 2007, his first Top Ten release. His mid-2000s chart success continued on 2009's Born in '69, which featured appearances by the Sugarhill Gang, Shabba Ranks, Axwell, and Kevin Lyttle. Sinclar kicked off the 2010s with the remix effort Made in Jamaica, which spun his greatest hits with a distinct island twist. Reggae artists Shaggy, Gary Pine, Queen Ifrica, Tony Rebel, and Dollarman all made appearances on the Sly & Robbie-produced set. Recruiting Pitbull, Fatman Scoop, Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Snoop Dogg, and Sean Paul, Sinclar took a page from David Guetta's high-profile collaboration handbook with 2012's Disco Crash, which landed in the French Top 20. He followed with the sleek Paris by Night mix in 2013. Sinclar continued with non-album single releases, including 2015's gold-certified "Feel the Vibe" with Dawn Tillman, 2016's Top 50 "Someone Who Needs Me," and 2017's "Til the Sun Rise Up" with Akon. In 2018 he issued "I Believe," another gold-certified single. Kicking off the 2020s, he released a steady stream of single, notably 2021's "We Could Be Dancing" with Molly Hammar and a Fisher remix of "World, Hold On" that received gold certification in Australia and the U.K. Through 2023, Sinclar teamed with Salome de Bahia, QUINZE, Riva Starr, A-Trak, and others on various tracks and remixes. ~ Neil Z.

Detroit-born Marc Kinchen, known commonly as MK, is one of the rare house producers to consistently innovate as well as achieve significant commercial success throughout a career spanning three decades. Initially appearing on Detroit labels such as Kevin Saunderson's KMS, Kinchen developed a highly unique style that combined the soulfulness of New York-inspired garage with the energy of hard techno, as well as intensely cut-up vocal hooks. His work would prove to be a major influence on New Jersey house deity Todd Edwards, as well as the entire U.K. garage scene. Throughout the '90s he achieved club success with several singles sung by Alana, collected on the 1993 full-length Surrender, as well as many remixes for other artists, including the Nightcrawlers' seminal "Push the Feeling On," originally released in 1992. During the early 21st century, Kinchen worked closely with stars like Will Smith and Pitbull, then returned to house music as interest in his earlier work resurged during the early 2010s. He scored one of his biggest hits with his remix of Storm Queen's "Look Right Through," which topped the U.K. pop chart in late 2013. He then resumed releasing original material, picking up silver and platinum certifications in the U.K. with 2010s singles such as "Piece of Me," "17," and "Back & Forth." In 2023, "Rhyme Dust" became his 11th charting U.K. pop single as a headliner or co-headliner. Kinchen's first production credit was "First Bass," as part of the group Separate Minds with Terrence Parker. The track was released on the 1989 KMS compilation Techno-1. Kinchen also recorded several singles as MK before he moved to Brooklyn in 1991, formed his own Area 10 Records, and released the single "Burning." The track became a moderate club hit, and led to remixing for the Shamen, Tom Tom Club, the B-52s, D-Influence, and, most notably, the Nightcrawlers, whose "Push the Feeling On" was transformed by his "dub of doom." Soon, Kinchen was one of the hottest figures in house music, and he signed to Charisma for an album deal. His full-length debut, 1993's Surrender, was credited to MK Featuring Alana (aka Alana Simon) and featured the singles "Always" and "Love Changes," which became deep house club hits worldwide. Kinchen continued to remix for a motley assortment of artists -- Pet Shop Boys, Opus III, Ethyl Meatplow, Jodeci, and Brandy among them -- and recorded both as himself and 4th Measure Men. After a lengthy retreat from house music that began in 1996 and entailed a close association with Will Smith, Kinchen easily resumed activity as a producer and remixer of club music, and as a DJ. During the early 2010s, he racked up dozens of remix credits for high-profile pop artists, including Lana Del Rey, Sky Ferreira, and Sam Smith. However, it was his remix of an underground track -- "Look Right Through," by Morgan Geist and Damon Scott's Storm Queen -- that was most successful, as it reached number one on the U.K. pop chart. Around the same time, there was renewed interest in Kinchen's early work, compiled by the Defected label's ITH division as part of its House Masters series. In 2015, Kinchen released "Bring Me to Life" (featuring singer Milly Pye) as the first single from an album he was preparing. Among the remixes was one carried out by Dantiez Saunderson -- the son of Kevin Saunderson. A second single appeared in 2016. "Piece of Me" featured Becky Hill on vocals, and the remix EP included versions by Groove Armada and the Saunderson Brothers. The 2017 single "17" topped the U.K. dance chart and reached number seven on the pop chart, making it Kinchen's most successful solo single. He enlisted Hill once again for the 2018 single "Back & Forth" (also featuring Jonas Blue) and narrowly missed another U.K. Top Ten showing. He charted early the next decade with "Lies" and "Better," and in 2023 made another appearance on the U.K. chart with the Dom Dolla collaboration "Rhyme Dust." ~ John Bush & Andy Kellman

As a teen, he initially shared D.I.Y. remixes on YouTube and Soundcloud out of his childhood bedroom. By 2017, he parlayed early traction into his first international success, linking up with Drop G for an official remix of “I Can’t Be” by Hakkan Akkus. It kickstarted REGARD’s stratospheric rise. In 2019, he reinvented, recharged, and remixed Jay Sean’s “RIDE IT,” gathering a staggering 1.3 billion Spotify streams and scoring a platinum certification from the RIAA. He maintained this momentum when he joined forces with RAYE for the 2020 international anthem “SECRETS.” Global powerhouse Dua Lipa recruited him for a remix of “Don’t Start Now.” He teamed up with Troye Sivan and Tate McRae on the platinum-certified “You,” vaulting to #1 on the Billboard Hot Dance/Electronic Songs Chart.

Dutch electronic dance producer Oliver Heldens is regarded as one of the primary figures of the future house scene of the 2010s. While he incorporates elements of numerous styles of dance music, including techno and breakbeat house, his most well-known tracks, including the 2014 U.K. chart-topper "Gecko (Overdrive)," combine deep house with big room and progressive house. His tracks produced under his own name tend to be melodic while maintaining a funky edge. Since 2015, he has additionally released darker, heavier club tracks under the name HI-LO. Heldens began his career with a handful of singles on the CR2 label in early 2013. This was a pivotal year for Heldens, and saw him remix Martin Garrix's smash hit "Animals" as well as release two singles for Spinnin' Records ("Stinger" and "Thumper"). Later that year, he teamed up with Oxygen Records and released "Onya" featuring Alvar and Millas. In the meantime, "Gecko" was picked up by major DJs and producers including Pete Tong, who named the track his "Essential New Tune" in January 2014. It also led to Tiësto releasing the track on his Musical Freedom label. Heldens remixed Robin Thicke's "Feel Good" and made headline appearances at several of Europe's top EDM festivals that summer, including Tomorrowland and Creamfields. A vocal version of "Gecko" titled "Gecko (Overdrive)," featuring The Voice U.K. contestant Becky Hill, was released in June of 2014 and hit number one on the U.K. singles charts. At the end of the year, Heldens had another Top Five hit in the U.K. with "Last Night (Koala)" featuring KStewart. Heldens ranked at number 34 on DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs of 2014 survey, and following his Essential Mix on BBC Radio 1, Tong named Heldens "one of the breakthrough producers of the year." In 2015, Heldens launched his Heldeep Records label with the single "Renegade Mastah" by HI-LO, which was later revealed to be a new Heldens project. Under his own name, he continued to release solo singles such as "Melody" and "Bunnydance," as well as collaborations with Da Hool, Zeds Dead, and Tiësto (including the 2016 U.K. Top 40 hit "The Right Song"). He also remixed songs by the Chainsmokers, Katy Perry, Calvin Harris, and others. In 2017, he released the single "What the Funk" (featuring Danny Shah); Steve Aoki released his remix of the track on his Dim Mak label. The following year, Heldens remixed Sofi Tukker's "Best Friend," which featured Nervo, the Knocks, and Alisa Ueno. He also teamed up with Sidney Samson for the single "Riverside 2099." Early 2019 saw the release of the single "Summer Lover" (feat. Devin & Nile Rodgers). ~ Aneet Nijjar

Welcome to DEEP JOY. 😈

Sub Focus is an alias of Nick Douwma, a drum'n'bass producer and DJ who became one of the style's leading practitioners within only two years of his recording debut. Originally from London, England, Douwma is a self-taught producer who began producing music on his PC at age 13 and attained his know-how from software manuals. One of his demos eventually made its way into the hands of Andy C., the co-founder of Ram Records, one of the U.K.'s premier drum'n'bass labels. Signed initially to the Ram Records offshoot label Frequency, Douwma made his recording debut as Sub Focus in 2003 with the 12" release Down the Drain/Hot Line. A couple more 12" releases on Frequency followed in 2004, along with one on J Majik's Infrared label. Douwma's breakout year came in 2005, however, when he made his Ram Records debut, releasing X-Ray/Scarecrow and, later in the year, Frozen Solid/Juno; these 12" releases were also compiled on the Frozen Solid/X-Ray maxi-single in response to their widespread demand, as "X-Ray" was awarded Single of the Week on tastemaker Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show. Also in 2005, Douwma was chosen to remix the Prodigy's "Smack My Bitch Up" in promotion of the group's 15-year anniversary collection, Their Law: The Singles 1990-2005. In subsequent years, Douwma continued his affiliation with Ram Records, releasing a 12" more or less annually (i.e., Airplane/Flamenco, 2006; Special Place/Druggy, 2007; Time Warp/Join the Dots, 2008; et al.) and performing as an affiliate DJ at clubs such as Fabric and festivals such as Glastonbury. In 2009 Douwma issued his full-length debut, Sub Focus, which incorporated an eclectic fusion of futuristic house, dubstep, and electro-rock. The following year he produced the track "Kickstarts" for British singer/rapper Example, which peaked at number three on the U.K. singles chart, and in 2011 he inked a deal with Mercury, with plans to release his second album under the Sub Focus moniker in late 2012. The album sessions went on longer than expected and spawned five singles which gained Douwma increasing recognition and success with each release, culminating in the euphoric U.K. number ten hit "Endorphins" featuring vocalist Alex Clare. The success of the single was no doubt powered in part by its brilliant music video, which saw brutal riot police cracking down on dissidents in a dystopian future where music has been banned. A number of other high-profile vocalists, including Bloc Party's Kele Okereke, appeared on the eventual album, which was titled Torus and released in September 2013. After the release of Torus' final single, a version of "Close" featuring Daniel Pearce, Douwma spent some time touring and designing a new studio. He resurfaced in 2016 with a pair of singles that underscored his jungle and garage roots, "Love Divine" and "Nobody Knows." The old-school feeling continued with 2017's "Lingua," a drum'n'bass- and dancehall-tinged track featuring vocals from Stylo G. Douwma followed it a few months later with "Don't You Feel It," a collaboration with Finnish vocalist Alma.~ Jason Birchmeier

Godspeed might be Marea Stamper's debut album, but it's not exactly her first. She completed a whole different LP and then shelved the project entirely when the pandemic hit. Fast forward to 2021 and she was without a record deal, her father had died and the future was far from certain. The party seemed like it might have been over. But instead of giving up, she started all over again. Stamper dusted off a few tracks, made some new ones and sent them around. Three years and "thousands of hours" of work later, she finished Godspeed, a living, breathing behemoth of a house music album whose journey was so complex and unpredictable that the title wasn't even decided until just a day before finishing the LP. The result is an all-encompassing look at a seasoned raver, expressed in an age-old way: music that celebrates the power of music itself, surrounded by friends and family to share in that joy with. The album is a labour of love, an homage to Stamper's roots that also updates it for the future. It's a little bit retro, a little bit futuristic, a bit pop and a bit avant-garde, full of sputtering drum patterns and left turns that frame the rawness of proto-house as the sound of now. It's uplifting but realistic about the world, covering the spectrum of human emotions instead of focusing on escapism. Or, as Stamper says: "Same shit, new soundtrack."

Just seven(n) years ago, American artist/producer Kevin Brauer exploded on the international electronic music scene under the artist name Sevenn. His first release, “Colors of the Rainbow”, was an instant hit with millions of plays. It was followed by a collaboration with DJ Alok entitled “BYOB” which gained over 60 million plays virtually overnight, leading to an influx of bookings and tours all around the world. Shortly after, the massive collaboration with Tïësto entitled “BOOM” debuted on Ultra Music Festival’s Miami mainstage with the Dutch legend himself. The “BOOM” remix with Gucci Mane hit #14 on Billboard’s Hot Dance/Electronic charts, amassing 700,000,000 streams and counting.

In a moment of clarity while on tour, Chris Lake felt an undeniable urge to refocus his sound and career. “I ended up back in England where I lived for many years with my family, in my mother’s spare room,” he says. “It was like going back to the old me to find the new me.” Lake’s credits include several Billboard chart-toppers, a platinum record, a Grammy nomination, a successful record label, and a Midas touch for supporting emerging talent. Enter 2017 and he’s showing no signs of slowing. He kicked off the year with a new record label called “Black Book Records”. The debut release “Operator ft. Dances With White Girls”, was the Holy Ship! anthem by the end of January and gained support from almost every house DJ - from Claude Vonstroke and Green Velvet to Disclosure and Duke Dumont. The viral lyrics became unavoidable at spring festivals. March saw OWSLA release “I Want You” with a gory mind-bending video that’s gained over 2M views. By April a compilation Chris co-curated with Skrillex was released called HOWSLA. It put an emphasis on forward thinking four to the floor records by young producers. The compilation went to #1 in the iTunes Dance Chart and was celebrated at a live-streamed release party. Not only is Chris Lake feeling inspired, he’s overflowing with work. “I’ve got enough material to release a record every 4 weeks for the next 18 months”.

Grammy-nominated electronic producer Kaskade emerged as one of the most successful American progressive house DJs of the 2000s, pioneering the concept of Las Vegas residencies and selling out arenas across America. With his bright, uplifting dance anthems, he was a steady presence on the U.S. dance charts into the 2010s with Top Ten releases that included chart-toppers Fire & Ice (2011) and Atmosphere (2013). One year later, I Remember (2014) compiled the best of his Ultra years, after which he renewed his contract with the label and released Automatic (2015). During the late 2010s, Raddon began rounding up his singles work into a series of releases titled Redux. Fire & Ice v3 arrived in 2022, the same year Kaskade debuted his project with Deadmau5 titled Kx5. Born Ryan Gary Raddon in Chicago, he spent his early days not only as a DJ, but as an A&R director and record store owner. In the late '90s, he familiarized himself with the rapidly changing electronic music scene, eventually finding that house music was the subgenre he loved best. He DJ'ed in both New York and Salt Lake City, where he would first produce tracks released on his own tiny label, Mechanized Records. He also sold his music to John Elkins, A&R director for OM Records, who later hired Raddon to assist him at the label. By night, Kaskade spun at local clubs and by day helped kick-start the careers of many artists, including Ming + FS and soul-house act Soulstice. His own full-length recordings under the Kaskade moniker began with 2003's house-inflected It's You, It's Me. A soulful, more organic direction provided focus for the following year's In the Moment, and Raddon kept his name in the record racks by piloting editions in the San Francisco Sessions DJ series (as well as the label mix House of OM). He proved surprisingly dedicated to his production craft, releasing Love Mysterious in 2006, which placed on Billboard's electronic albums chart. That same year, he parted ways with OM and signed with Ultra. Arriving in 2008, Strobelight Seduction -- featuring production by Deadmau5 -- became his biggest commercial success to date, buoyed by the lead single "Move for Me." Released in 2010, Dynasty celebrated his new reputation with a parade of vocal features and a co-production with Tiësto. It also became his first LP to chart on the Billboard 200. That year, Raddon put together Electric Daisy Carnival, a mix showcasing artists on the bill for the inaugural dance music festival of the same name. The double-album Fire & Ice followed in 2011 and debuted in the Billboard Top 20. Featuring a production assist from Skrillex on "Lick It," the effort also included guest vocals from Neon Trees and Skylar Grey. Atmosphere arrived two years later and featured softer, more relaxed music along with vocals from Kaskade himself. After the 2014 compilation I Remember rounded up the best material from his years on Ultra, the DJ renewed his contract with the label and one year later released Automatic. The album featured guest appearances from Estelle, Galantis, John Dahlbäck, and K. Flay, and peaked on the Billboard Electronic chart at number two. In 2016, Kaskade joined Deadmau5 and Skylar Grey on the single "Beneath Me." The following year he issued the Redux EP 002 (featuring LoKii, Mr. Tape, and Late Night Alumni), as well as the holiday-themed Kaskade Christmas. The DJ then joined Charlotte Lawrence for the 2018 single "Cold as Stone." His third installment of the Redux series arrived in 2019. Redux 003 presented a seamless mix featuring Felix Cartal, Gorgon City, and more. Among his many 2020 singles, he also issued the Redux 004 EP. He kicked off 2021 with the single "Closer," then delivered Reset and Redux EP 005. Fire & Ice v3, featuring updates of several earlier tracks, appeared in 2022. Kx5, a project with Deadmau5, debuted with the single "Escape." Kaskade released singles with L'Tric and Sydney Streb ("Birds of Paradise") and Justus ("Dance with Me"), while Kx5 continued with additional tracks like "Take Me High," "Alive," and the Sofi Tukker collaboration "Sacrifice." ~ L. Katz & John Bush

After working for artists like Loreen and Diana Vickers under the name of Simen & Espen, the production team of Simen Eriksrud and Espen Berg launched the electronic dance music act SeeB. The Norwegian duo first came together as owners of Oslo's The Living Room, a recording studio used by acts from the glamorous pop superstar Lady Gaga to the Polish death metal act Khold. Simen & Espen earned their own production credits beginning in 2012 with work on Loreen's Living Room album Heal, and in 2014 they worked on Kiesza's Sound of a Woman, with SeeB getting a credit for remixes sourced from the album. In 2016, SeeB came into its own with the single "Breathe," released by EMI and featuring vocals from Neev. They also incorporated Nick Strand, turning SeeB into a trio. That year, they made their mainstream breakthrough with a remix of Mike Posner's "I Took a Pill in Ibiza," which broke into the Top 10 across Europe and in the United States. Remixes of Coldplay's "Hymn for the Weekend" and OneRepublic's "Kids" followed, further increasing their audience. In 2017, the duo returned with the singles "Under Your Skin," with R. City, "Boys in the Street," featuring Greg Holden, and "Cruel World," a collaboration with Skip Marley. Also that year, they paired with OneRepublic for the track "Rich Love." SeeB's debut EP, Nice to Meet You, appeared in 2018, and included the single "Drink About," featuring singer Dagny. Later that year, they teamed with Bastille for the single "Grip." ~ David Jeffries

Niles Hollowell-Dhar, known by his stage name KSHMR, produces big room electro-house that is heavily influenced by his Indian heritage. The California-based producer first found success as part of the pop-rap duo the Cataracs, who produced hits for Far East Movement, Dev, Snoop Dogg, and New Boyz during the early 2010s. Freeing himself from the expectations of the pop world, he anonymously debuted his EDM alias KSHMR in 2014, publicly confirming his identity the following year. He has released dozens of singles, including collaborations with Tiësto, Hardwell, and R3hab, in addition to EPs such as 2015's Paradesi, 2016's interlude-heavy The Lion Across the Field, 2017's Materia, and 2021's full-length Harmonica Andromeda. Hollowell-Dhar, the son of an Indian father and an American mother, was born in Berkeley, California, in 1988. He attended Berkeley High School, where he met aspiring rapper David Benjamin Singer-Vine. Hollowell-Dhar wrote a diss track against Singer-Vine, but they ended up becoming close friends, and they formed the Cataracs in 2003. Starting with 2006's Technohop, Vol. 1, they released a few digital albums and EPs, as well as the 2007 single "Blueberry Afghani," a collaboration with hyphy group the Pack (featuring a young Lil B). After moving to Los Angeles, they began collaborating with singer Dev. The Cataracs signed to Universal Records in 2010, and they wrote and produced Far East Movement's chart-topping hit "Like a G6," which sampled "Booty Bounce," a song they produced for Dev. The Cataracs' other productions included Snoop Dogg's single "Wet," New Boyz's hit "Backseat," and the entirety of Dev's 2011 full-length The Night the Sun Came Up. The Cataracs' Gordo Taqueria EP was released in 2012, featuring "All You," a collaboration with Wacka Flocka Flame and Kaskade. Singer-Vine decided to leave the Cataracs in 2012, and Hollowell-Dhar continued using the name. He teamed up with Martin Solveig and Kyle on the 2013 single "Hey Now," which charted in several countries. He also produced songs for Selena Gomez, Sean Paul, and Robin Thicke. He decided to end the Cataracs in 2014, and began anonymously producing EDM under the name KSHMR. Debuting in February with the single "Megalodon," KSHMR released a steady stream of tracks that hit the charts of dance music retailer Beatport. Following collaborations with Firebeatz and DallasK, "Karate" (with R3hab) charted in Belgium and France. KSHMR revealed his identity at the Ultra Music Festival in 2015, where he was introduced by Tiësto. The two collaborated on the single "Secrets" (with Vassy), which was the biggest KSHMR single yet. He released the Paradesi EP, which was strongly based on Indian culture, as were additional singles like "Jammu" and "Bazaar." By the end of the year, he had charted at number 23 on DJ Mag's annual Top 100 DJs poll. An EP titled The Lion Across the Field was released in May 2016, and KSHMR performed at the main stage of the Tomorrowland music festival shortly after. His singles during the year included "Invisible Children" (with Tigerlily), "Voices" (with Will Sparks), and "Extreme" (with Bassjackers). He then moved up to number 12 on the annual DJ Mag poll, a position he held the following year. KSHMR's 2017 performance at the Ultra Music Festival, with Timmy Trumpet, was his first to be performed entirely with live musicians. A further Tiësto collaboration, "Harder," appeared that year, and subsequent 2017 singles included "The Serpent" (with Snails) and "Underwater," which featured Bollywood singer Sonu Nigam. He also ventured into psy-trance with the single "Shiva," a collaboration with Marnik and the Golden Army. In 2018, KSHMR teamed up with singer Sidnie Tipton for the acoustic pop-oriented single "House of Cards." "Doonka," a free track featuring Mr.Black, was influenced by trap. This was followed by "Carry Me Home," a progressive house track featuring vocalist Jake Reese. 2021 saw the release of his first full-length effort, Harmonica Andromeda, which took inspiration from countries and cultures worldwide. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi

Dutch progressive house duo Tinlicker have released their free-spirited, occasionally wistful tracks on scene-leading labels like Mau5trap and Anjunabeats. Fusing state-of-the-art sound design with emotive songcraft, the pair made an impact with club hits like "Because You Move Me" (2017) and "Nothing Without You" (2018) before releasing their first full-length for Anjunabeats, This Is Not Our Universe, in 2019. Prior to forming Tinlicker in 2012, Jordi Van Achthoven and Micha Heyboer had both been making dance music for over a decade. Van Achthoven released progressive and hard house as JVA and as part of projects like Essential Groovers and Sidesteppers, while Heyboer was a member of well-regarded drum'n'bass trio Black Sun Empire, as well as their trance offshoots Empirical Labs and Charger. The two Utrecht-based producers started releasing Tinlicker tracks on their own Zero Three Zero imprint, beginning with their fittingly titled 2012 EP It's My First Time Here. Lengthy digital album Remember the Future appeared in 2013, and the duo released three EPs on Feed Me's Sotto Voce label, beginning with 2014's Like No Other. Following a handful of singles and an EP of Remember the Future remixes in 2016, Tinlicker reached a wider audience in 2017, when Jalapeño was released by Deadmau5's Mau5trap Recordings, and "Soon You'll Be Gone" (sung by frequent collaborator Thomas Oliver) appeared on Above & Beyond's Anjunadeep imprint. Additionally, "Because You Move Me" (with Helsloot) was issued by Armada Electronic Elements the same year. The duo continued releasing singles on all three labels in 2018, including "Nothing Without You" (another track featuring Oliver) and "If I Was" (with CUT_). Full-length This Is Not Our Universe came out on Anjunabeats in 2019, including collaborations with Oliver, Helsloot, and Run Rivers, as well as the duo's remix of Alt-J's "Breezeblocks." ~ Paul Simpson

Taking their inspiration and distinct imagery from the iconic 1977 docudrama Pumping Iron (featuring a very young and pumped Arnold Schwarzenegger), Bicep is the musical brainchild of Belfast-raised duo Andy Ferguson and Matt McBriar. DJ'ing and collecting vinyl since their late teens, the pair's love of disco, Chicago house, Detroit techno, Italo-disco, and everything analog in between inspired them to create a music-based blog titled Feel My Bicep. Acting as an outlet for the duo's eclectic and esoteric dance music tastes, as well as showcasing personal mixes and re-edits, they moved to London and began DJ'ing around the capital. As the website grew in stature and reputation (it featured guest mixes from Simian Mobile Disco, Ben Sun, and Ooft, among many others), they began to hone their own production skills, resulting in their first 12" release on Citizen Kane's Ghost Town label (a re-edit called "Strawberry," issued in 2009). It was their 2010 12", "Darwin," on the Rapture's co-owned label Throne of Blood that got them wider recognition. With the early support of Beats in Space host and DFA cohort Tim Sweeney, it topped the Boomkat chart and became XLR8R's most downloaded track of 2010. Bicep also released 313 on Traveller Records. This led to worldwide DJ gigs, another release on Throne of Blood -- the Silk EP -- and more remix opportunities in 2011, with the likes of Blood Orange, Tal M. Klein, Medlar, and Cosmic Kids all getting the Bicep treatment. During this same year, they started a monthly residency at Plastic People in East London. In 2012, the pair focused their affection for '90s-produced New Jersey house music on their vinyl-only 12" "$tripper" on Love Fever Records and provided well-received remixes for Blondes and Chamboche. During the latter part of 2012, Bicep collaborated with Ejeca and Omar Odyssey for the You/Don't EP on Will Saul and Fink's Aus Records, and formed their own label, which shared the name of their blog, Feel My Bicep. The label's first release, the duo's "Vision of Love," became a club hit, and was remixed by Detroit legend Carl Craig and released as a 12" by Kevin Saunderson's KMS label. The duo also collaborated with Simian Mobile Disco for 2013's "Sacrifice," released by SMD's Delicacies imprint. Bicep continued releasing club smashes, including "Satisfy," "D-Mil" (with Midland), and especially "Just," which was named 2015's track of the year by Mixmag and DJ Mag. They took their Feel My Bicep parties to clubs and festivals across the globe, and began performing live concerts in addition to DJ gigs, attracting huge crowds for both. In 2017, Bicep signed to Ninja Tune and geared up for the release of their long-awaited debut full-length. Simply titled Bicep, it was preceded by the singles "Glue" and "Aura," and arrived in September. ~ Aneet Nijjar

In a now long forgotten world, many generations ago, a bird like shape emerged from wooded darkness, floating and fluttering, drifting and dreaming. Backlit by a bright glow of iridescent light, the undecipherable form wore a dazzling golden mask.

Years spending wandering medieval landscapes have informed Claptone’s view of the world, experiencing both magical mystery and muted melancholy he enchanted onlookers with occult instruments and beguiling sounds. Forever surrounded by a sense of intrigue, the world soon cottoned on to the elusive yet enchanting musical powers of this otherworldly beast. The results are that, today, his shamanistic sonic powers take him all around the world... Claptone's new album Fantast is out now!

Don Diablo (real name Don Pepijn Schipper) is a future house DJ/producer who has scored numerous chart and club hits starting in the early 2000s. He issued his debut, the house- and hip-hop-flavored Life Is a Festival, in 2008, while its follow-up, Forever, would not arrive until 2018. In the decade between releases, he busied himself with high-profile collaborations and sold-out live sets. Born in Coevorden, Netherlands, the producer got his start in music at the early age of 15, when he signed his first record deal. However, it wasn't until his later years that his productions began to turn heads both within the industry and among electronic dance music lovers the world over. Tracks such as "On My Mind," "Cutting Shapes," and "AnyTime" became instant hits, and the producer soon found that he was in high demand to remix tracks from a vast array of high-profile songwriters and artists spanning a variety of genres. Diablo received frequent requests to bring his eclectic dance and house flavors to numerous chart hits, from the likes of Madonna and Rihanna to Bastille and Ed Sheeran. While balancing remix work alongside his seemingly nonstop international touring schedule, he also found himself collaborating and working on original tracks with artists such as Tiësto, Tinie Tempah, and Kelis. He scored two mid-2000s chart hits with his side project Divided, and subsequent years saw Schipper collaborate with a further range of diverse artists under the Don Diablo moniker. He issued his official full-length debut, Life Is a Festival, in 2008. The set featured appearances by Shystie, Bizzey, J-Rock, Rhymefest, and others, climbing into the Dutch Top 40. The track "Hooligans," which Diablo had produced with rapper Example, saw dominance on the U.K. dance chart in 2009, while the following year saw more success for the young producer with the track "Animale," which featured Canadian electronic outfit Dragonette. Don Diablo had more glowing moments in 2013 when house music titan Pete Tong spun six of his tracks on his BBC Radio 1 show. The year also saw Diablo take up a brief residency at the Las Vegas nightclub Light, and embark on sold-out solo tours of both the U.S. and Asia. In 2015 he put together his own record label, Hexagon, which saw instant success with the release of a collaborative remix of British tropical house DJ Alex Adair's hit "Make Me Feel Better." Subsequent releases on the label also dominated the higher end of the charts, particularly in the States and the U.K., and Hexagon was named Breakthrough EDM Label of 2015 by Beatport. Hexagon's own radio show went on to air in over 35 countries, gaining him an ever-burgeoning fan base of listeners. In 2015, Diablo worked with fellow Dutch DJ Tiësto on the track "Chemicals," which also featured vocals from Danish singer/songwriter Thomas Troelsen. More sold-out tours and performances followed in 2016, with Don Diablo also claiming the number 15 spot on DJ Mag's Top 100 DJs list, and ranking as number one Future House Artist of the Year by Beatport. The year also saw the DJ branch out into other creative avenues, creating the theme song to the widely acclaimed Batman: Arkham Origins video game. Once again, the track became a quick hit, racking up millions of plays online. In 2017, the young producer continued touring and put out the compilation album Past.Present.Future via Hexagon, followed in early 2018 by his sophomore full-length Future. Featuring contributions by Nina Nesbitt, Calum Scott, Betty Who, and more, the album marked his first appearance on the Billboard charts, entering the dance/electronic list at number nine. Also that year he issued the non-album single "Survive" featuring Emeli Sandé and Gucci Mane. ~ Rob Wacey

Los Angeles native Erick Orrosquieta, known as Deorro (and TON!C as well), is a house/EDM producer and DJ, as well as a proud Mexican American. After he developed a following through his SoundCloud page, he reached a wider audience in his early twenties, from 2012 through 2014, with extensive touring, as well as brash solo releases and collaborations on the Dim Mak and Mad Decent labels. Among his highlights were "Dechorro" (2013), "Freak" (2014), and "Five Hours" (2014), the last of which reached the Top Ten in France and Belgium. Additionally, he remixed tracks by the likes of Laidback Luke ("Pogo"), Steve Aoki ("Ooh"), and Gareth Emery ("Lights & Thunder"). Deorro's momentum continued with Five More Hours (featuring Chris Brown, 2015) and Bailar (featuring Elvis Crespo, 2016), both of which went Top Ten in multiple territories. A slew of additional singles followed into 2017 when he issued his debut collection, Good Evening. He continued his prolific run in 2018 with nearly a dozen single releases, including Shakalaka with Steve Aoki, Dracarys with Dirty Audio, and Bring It Back (feat. Max Styler) with MAKJ. In 2019 he teamed up with Quintino and MAKJ for the high-energy single Knockout. Since that time, Deorro has had releases with some of the top collaborators in both the EDM and Latin genres, like his single release in 2022, Savage with Tiësto, and his debut Latin Album ORRO, which features an astounding 18 collaborators over 19 tracks. ~ Andy Kellman
