Known as globally touring DJ and the man behind OFF Recordings for many years, the recent past saw massive changes for Andre Crom.

His label OFF Recordings is nowadays one of the most loved and played techno labels. The global techno elite like Amelie Lens, Charlotte De Witte, Adam Beyer, Chris Liebing, Richie Hawtin, and many, many more play OFF Recordings' and Andre's productions on heavy rotation.

Crom personally has stepped up as a producer strongly in the past years, with releases on OFF, Sleaze, 100% Pure, Tronic, and other leading imprints.

But for all the love of producing and running a label, Andre Crom's enduring passion for underground dance music becomes most visible during his dj-sets, where he seamlessly combinies melodic and monotone shades of techno, function and emotion, to create an effortless flow and deep connection with the dancefloor.

Jon Sa Trinxa is an influential figure in the world of electronic music, renowned for his eclectic taste and deep connection with the Balearic sound—a kaleidoscope of genres that include Disco, House, Funk, Indie Dance, Down Tempo, Ambient, and more. His career, spanning over three decades, began in 1987, rooted in the early rave scene and expanding to clubs, festivals, beach parties, and special events worldwide, including Japan, Australia, South America, the USA, SE Asia, and across Europe.

One of Jon's most significant achievements is holding the longest DJ residency on Ibiza at Sa Trinxa, Salinas Beach, from 1993 to 2019. This spot became synonymous with his name, showcasing his ability to create a unique vibe that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of Ibiza. His talent also shone brightly at the legendary Manumission parties, where he played for ten years at Privilege and Space, and was a regular feature at We Love… Sundays at Space, Pacha for Made in Italy, and various nights at Amnesia.

During the winter months, Jon's musical journey takes him to Asia, where he holds a residency at Karma Beach Club in Bali and performs in Thailand, Cambodia, and Sri Lanka, spreading his unique blend of Balearic beats to a global audience.

Jon Sa Trinxa's contribution to the music world extends beyond his live sets. He has produced several compilation CDs for major labels such as Sony and Music for Dreams, and his work on the classic "Naked Ibiza" for Mixmag became one of the magazine's most popular CDs, further cementing his status as a pioneer of the Balearic sound.

Riding in with the power to deliver sunshine to world’s rainiest open-air events, Monkey Safari brings rays of light to whatever dance floors they cast their shimmering spell on. 

The past few years saw the brothers swinging to new trees, retiring their previous labels to focus on their new label 'Hommage.' It were the years of transformation for the German producers, developing and tailoring a sound suited perfectly for the unique club nuances while still keeping the core elements of melodic chords and grooves synonymous with the duos productions. 

During this time, Monkey Safari unveiled their remix for Marc Houle’s “Pepper” on Richie Hawtin’s label Minus and their hugely successful “Cranes” and “Walls“ EPs that presented opportunities for Monkey Safari to work with some exciting musicians, such as Wolf + Lamb and Kölsch, techno heavy weights Guy Gerber and Josh Wink, as well as one of dance music’s most iconic producers, Moby. 

Monkey Safari remixed a track for Moby & The Void Pacific Choir, returning the favor after Moby’s successful rework of the duo’s track “Walls” last year. Their next releases continued in the same fashion, featuring remixes from Paco Osuna, Chloé, John Digweed & Nick Muir, UNER, Guy Mantzur, Victor Ruiz and more, while signing tracks from amazing Blond:ish, legendary John Tajada, and others on their Hommage imprint. 

The duo’s efforts in the studio have transcended to their DJ sets with stand out shows at Time Warp and Awakenings Festival. On top of a heavy touring schedule at world renowned clubs and headlining slots at festivals, the duo released their album ‘Odyssey’. Monkey Safari produced the same kind of tracks for this album they were playing as they toured nightclubs and festivals around the world, rather than simply a listening album. 

In 2018 Monkey Safari carefully handpicked remixers they saw as most capable of continuing their vision for the album. The ‘Odyssey Remixes’ featured reworks of the original album tracks by the master himself, Carl Cox, international stars Hernan Cattaneo, Guy J, Musumeci, Tensnake and Reboot, studio geniuses Dubspeeka, Hannes Bieger, ROD, and Phil Moffa, as well as up-and-coming talent Avidus and Trivmph . 

Monkey Safari’s third album comes in perfect time for the summer sunshine of 2019. The duo follow up their last album, ‘Odyssey’, with this warm, inviting collection of music designed to brighten your day and complement the glorious sunny days that bless us during the summer. Sven and Lars learned some valuable lessons from their last long-player, and the new album ‘HI’ comes from a far more relaxed, easy-going place. An organic project that came together quite naturally, their third album sees the duo in high spirits ready to bring a large dose of positive vibes and emotional depth to the party. 

2020 and 2021 sees Monkey Safari moving closer to legendary brands Get Physical and Anjuna Deep, starting with a remix and a multitude of EPs on the labels. Watch out for more news soon! 

The German outfit has been on an incredible run of form with promising developments in all of their endeavors and exciting news still to come. Be it a fresh remix or EP drop, DJ set or party, Monkey Safari will be sure to touch all scopes of dance culture with no signs of deceleration on the horizon. 
Their mandate remains the same, sending sunny vibes to make even the darkest dance floors smile.

BIO
Joakim Frithjof has been quietly making his mark in the underground scene. Starting out with a love for Hip-Hop, turntablism, and early House, his musical journey took a new turn when he moved to Amsterdam in 2005, where clubs like Club11 and Trouw shaped his evolving sound. Over the years, he’s played across Amsterdam, hosted his own parties in Utrecht, and even made appearances in cities like Copenhagen, Berlin, and Stockholm.

His style? Hard to pin down. He loves mixing things up, drawing from House, breakbeat, UK Garage, floathouse, rave, and classics. Always keeping it fresh but never forgetting the roots. He’s more about making people move than fitting into any one box.

Beyond DJ’ing, he applies his wide-ranging taste in music to curating playlists for brands and physical spaces. As Music Director at Kollekt.fm and with his own venture, Sonic Curations, he helps create custom playlists and music identities that not only fit the aesthetic but also enhance the atmosphere, leaving behind a lasting audio impression.

Fun Fact: The first CD he ever bought at age 12 was The Prodigy’s The Fat of the Land, a purchase that marked the beginning of a lifelong obsession with music.
