Impex - Synth Psycho [Premiere]

My name is Dávid, I’m 20 years old, and I come from the Slovak Republic. I mix my beloved DNB subgenre 🌟 Neurofunk 🌟 and I also try to produce this kind of music. 

Hardcore and Drum and Bass from Las Vegas/Southern California, USA.
 Virtue discovered electronic music in 1993 at the age of 11 when a friend of his passed along a techno tape. He immediately fell in love with the atmosphere the music provided for his imagination and the way it made him feel. After attending his first rave at the age of 15, he was hooked. 
 He noticed how the DJ was able to control the crowd and create an experience everyone was enjoying and hardcore techno was his favorite experience above all others. With its hard, bouncy, distorted kicks and high energy, it gave him a unique feeling he had never experienced before. It gave him a sense of belonging, something he always felt was lacking in the neighborhood he grew up in. Virtue loved how friendly all the people were who also loved the music. 
 Having obtained a pair of Gemini belt drive turntables in 1997, he began experimenting with mixing house music and soon after he moved on to hardcore techno. He got his start playing at house parties all over the Inland Empire and eventually started playing at raves across Los Angeles, CA. 
 Later, he started his own streaming radio station with his longtime friend (DLOE) in a duo DJ team, the Gabbertwinz, called Gabbertwinz Radio. In 2013 he decided it was time to make his own tracks and hit the ground running with releases on Speedcore Worldwide, Splitterstorm, Devil Times Nine, Hong Kong Violence, as well as his own label, Kill or Be Slaughtered, founded with fellow producers Fiend and Arcid. 
 He also co-founded a new podcast called Hardcore Misfits, with fellow djs Drednok and Tha Threat, which showcases hardcore djs in the United States. He is also 1/3 of a new group called Vatos Locos, started with djs Arcid and C1B2 (aka The Cyberdemon). With his experience and love for the harder sounds, you are guaranteed to hear something you’ve never heard before.

emplate - Cleveland, Ohio

bookings: 
justtodd@gmail.com

emplate first heard the sounds of Jungle/Drum & Bass in the summer of '96 and was instantly enchanted. A drummer, and heavily influenced by hip hop, metal, industrial, classical and jazz; emplate believes drum and bass embodies everything he had been listening to and loved before it.

In '99 he knew that listening was not enough. He needed more than mixtapes and parties to get his fix. Inspired by the DJs around him and his love for DnB, he dedicated himself to seeking knowledge, selection and skill. emplate soon became respected both technically and for his sets that interweave neurofunk and darker, minimal DNB tunes that are often peppered with liquid dancefloor tracks if the mood is right.

In 2006, emplate became a resident DJ at the former weekly and nationally recognized DnB event "in:verse". Always interested in moving the scene forward, emplate helped develop The Cleveland Drum n Bass Coalition and (216)BASS, both local platforms that Northeast Ohio DnB heads used as a vehicle to further their careers. In August of 2014, emplate joined up with Rockers Music. Excited about having a DnB label out of Cleveland, emplate spearheaded the local launch of the Rockers 175 label with the “Step Inside” & "Kismet" monthly events held at the Beachland Ballroom, bringing in names such as: Lenzman, Doc Scott, Total Science, Zero T, The Prototypes, Crissy Criss, DJ SS, Aphrodite, Dara, AK1200, Dieselboy & more. After stepping away from the label & the turbulent life of event promotions, he focused on being the best DJ he could be...taking his mixing to new levels & determined to prove that he's underrated, not only in his hometown & state, but the U.S. as a whole.

For two decades, emplate has been known for his diverse selection of up to date releases, promos & unreleased tracks & plays accordingly to timeslot, crowd & vibe.
