Wayne Smart is widely regarded as one of the most promising and versatile artists to emerge from the harder end of the scene in the last five years. He is better known for the seamless mixing and relentless late sets that he has unleashed on crowds at London's mighty Frantic, where he not only is a resident, but Co-Label Manager. 
Wayne also manages Encoded and is a resident for Vamp, Premonition and Concept.

From the launch of his first major success, the huge collaboration with Phatt Beats and Defective Audio, 'Death Warrant' - which appeared in countless DJ top tens' and went straight into the Toolbox store top five best sellers upon its opening where it has remained to this day; Wayne has gone from strength to strength and has excelled massively in his DJ career over the last few years. This is mostly due to him turning his focus to producing a vast range of high quality tracks that span from Hardhouse to Hard Trance under his own name and under his aliases, DDT and The Pandemics.

Not only are his own tracks synonymous with the harder, driving sound of Hardhouse, but Wayne has also worked with some of the most influential producers in the scene, including BK, James Nardi, Dom Sweeten (Defective Audio, Base Graffiti, OD404) and Dave Owens (Munkjack, Curve Pusher, D.F.O), all of whom he has Top 10 releases with, most recently with Disturbed Nation's brother from another mother, James Nardi with their collab and 100th Twist Trax release, 'Eternally'.

His gigs to date include: Tour Of NZ & OZ, Frantic, Awsum, Xstatic, Twist, Tasty, Hi Oktane, Tidy Weekender, Vamp, Hook'd, Concept, Convergence, Glow Ball and with events planned for nearly every weekend this year, it's easy to see that Wayne Smart is one of the most in demand artists at the moment.

Quote By Lucy Fur:
Wayne's energetic sets, pitch perfect mixing and driving sound has made him in my top 3 DJ's of the past 5 years. I never missed a Smartie set at home ever. His technical ability to mix is literally like the turntables are an extention of his arms. And we love the POP! That pop. I have played many times b2b with Wayne and all have been so enjoyable x Every production he does is my favourite type of HH. Label manager and resident for both Encoded NRG and Frantic UK have seen him play some of the biggest stages at home. Some of my fav ever sets at the Tidy Weekenders have been Wayne's. Tune after tune, 'Frantic', 'Bad To The Bone', 'ibass' and remixes like '999 Matrix Red Pill' and 'Beat Of The Drum' have been hammered by all the biggest names in the industry and appeared on countless albums. Wayne's 'It's My Pussy' I have decided is my favourite HH tune EVER. I could go on and on, but will leave it there! Absolutely made up this is happening! Love you Smartie xx

Forbidden Friends are a fresh off the block dynamic duo, formed of the partnership between Hard House DJ's and producers Aaron James & Mumbles. 

2014 saw the boys achieve an awe-inspiring seven No.1's in nine singles, most impressive of which was their debut releases, dominating the Toolbox Top 100 Chart with three tracks sitting in a simultaneous 1st, 2nd & 3rd ranking after each track had its own glory on the top spot. In addition to this great success with their productions, their time behind the wheels of steel did not go unnoticed as they were rewarded with not one, but two residencies, one of which taking the boys overseas.

Vamp, with their new bi-monthly promotion and crisp new label, was the first to snap the pair up and give them their first residency after realising their potential, with owner James Nardi proceeding to bestow the boys with the privilege of remixing one of the most sought after tracks of 2014, "Nightbreed". This remix will be featuring on Vamp's label along with an original track called "Mind Shift" that has received great support from some of the scenes big names. Both of these tracks feature on the 'Rougher & Tougher' Vicious Circle album, accompanied by some of their other tracks.

Rave Rockin, from across the pond in Ireland (fronted by Mick Doyle), is another fresh promotion with its own label that has also backed the lads to become something rather special and has given them a residency too. As with Vamp, there are two exclusive tracks scheduled for release on Rave Rockin’s label later in the year, so be sure to keep an eye out for “Dumbo Gumbo” & “Just A Beaver”.

2015 has started rather well for the boys, with a multitude of bookings flying in from up and down the country, and not to mention their first release of the year "Balls Out" (signed to the legendary Vicious Circle label), scoring the duo yet another No.1; and with tracks already scheduled for release with the likes of the scene's heavyweight labels such as: Twist, Toolbox & Tripoli Trax (plus many more), this year is definitely going to be seeing Forbidden Friends at their best, see below for some of their upcoming bookings and the links to their pages.
