My music speaks my personality.  If you like my music, then I'm sure we will get along just fine :)

The indisputable First Lady of CircoLoco and Queen of DC10 Ibiza, Tania Vulcano was there when it all began on those Monday mornings back in 1999 and continues to be a beacon for quality underground music. Whilst still typically playing the headline Terrace set for CircoLoco at DC10, Tania is global representative for the brand and continent-hops every weekend to meet the persistent demand for her music. Unsurprisingly, in many ways it is Tania's sound itself that acts as a showcase for what CircoLoco is all about.

Vulcano, Uruguayan incidentally, now also runs the successful label Isgud Records.Featuring her own productions and others that truly embrace the deep spirit of deep, percussive vinyl grooves, Isgud has rapidly garnered a reputation for only the finest house music.

Fauxplay skyrocketed in to the dance music scene in 2022, claiming a position amongst the new breed of anointed underground electronic producers with his first EP, ‘Touch The Sky’ – a truly awe-inspiring debut (via Music To Die For records) which reached No.1 on the coveted Beatport Melodic House & Techno Release Charts and No.3 on the Global Release Chart. His second EP, 'Conjure', released in September 2023, also reached No.1 one in the Beatport Melodic House & Techno Release Charts, and No.1 in the Progressive House Release charts, also garnering support from some of the biggest producers and DJs in the world, including Sasha, John Digweed, Eelke Kleijn, Gabriel Ananda, Marsh, 1979, Jamie Stevens, Aly & Fila , Nick Warren, Marcus James, Anthony Pappa, Gai Barone, Steve Parry, Guy Mantzur and many more..

 

2024 is shaping up to be a big year for Fauxplay - his 'Unchained EP' and subsequent 'Deus Breaks' mixes on various EPs have secured support amongst the Breaks community, and with his current EP 'Inhale' and the subsequent single releases (e.g. "Forget"), Fauxplay is also securing attention in the Deep House genre, with a major release planned in October called "Obsession" which is lined up to be his biggest release yet.... 

Fauxplay's sound oozes sophistication, blending together his audio engineering experience with a passion for quality, deep electronic vibes and an ear for hooks, and unencumbered by genre pigeon holes; working alongside some of the world’s best producers with diverse influences ranging from Talking Heads and Simple Minds to Larry Heard, Ron Trent, Derrick May and Four Tet. The journey for Fauxplay has just begun - stay tuned for more quality music!

Matthew ‘Bushwacka’ B, a percussionist in the London School Symphony Orchestra who was converted into a member of the infamous Rat Pack after a warehouse party in ’88, has been DJing for over 30 years now. From that first Acid House experience Matthew quickly started playing all over London, holding residencies at four of the most famous clubs in town by the time he was 18 years old. From London the gigs spread countrywide, doing up to 8 shows a weekend, and then into Europe and the USA by 1992.
 
It was via a mutual friend Mr C that Layo & Bushwacka! first met, whilst Matthew was working at his studio, and by the mid 90s the two had started writing music together. Over a decade later, the partnership has yielded three artist albums, three mix albums, internationally renowned club residencies and a superb record label. 

By 1999 they’d already composed their debut album, ‘Low Life’, released on End Recordings, the label spawned by The End. The album announced the arrival of the duo as a force in electronic music, with a record that brought together electro, house and breakbeat fused with blues, dub and downtempo, all underpinned and informed by their collective experience of underground culture. This inclusive and open minded approach to sound became the blueprint for their future work.

Their sophomore album followed in 2002, this time released on the mighty XL Recordings. Entitled ‘Night Works’, the record featured their unforgettable top ten hit ‘Love Story’, and took their sound onto a bigger and broader canvas, charting all over the in the process. The accompanying live show brought further acclaim with stunning shows from Homelands to Sonar, whilst their famous DJ sets had now garnered residencies at some of the world’s finest clubs including Space in Ibiza, Warung in Brasil and of course The End in London. While this explosion was happening, Matthew was also achieving huge solo success with his remixes for Depeche Mode, his bootleg of Michael Jackson’s Billie Jean, and getting phone calls from Madonna wanting him to work on her music. It was a crazy time. 

Their End residency, known as All Night Long, became one of the capital’s most revered nights with Layo & Bushwacka! taking the club through an edifying tour-de-force of electronic music.
 
When The End closed its doors for the last time in 2009, Layo and Bushwacka! started the Shake It brand and threw amazing warehouse parties all over London, booking Carl Cox, Richie Hawtin, Magda, Laurent Garnier and many other friends, and created dancefloor destruction for 4 years. The parties were legendary, the energy incredible.


Layo & Bushwacka!’s reputation as two of the world’s foremost DJ duos is rock solid. Four artist albums have proven them remarkably talented producers, capable of mixing styles, tempos and genres to create enduring and engaging electronic music. Their trio of mix albums and international club residencies have shown they are masters of the turntables, sonic connoisseurs who can guide a dance floor on an epic journey through the many facets of their sound. Their label Olmeto meanwhile has become a bastion for quality, a label that, much like its figureheads, has become a rubber stamped seal of class, and many of their vinyl only releases have become sought after rarities.
 
In 2013 Bushwacka! took some time out to focus on his solo Just Be project, recording on Crosstown Rebels, Get Physical and Intec, while Layo created a new empire in Soho, of world class restaurants, applying his magic touch to everything he does. Five years later, Bushwacka! started touring and recording again under his original name, only on select shows and keeping it special for the fans, old and new.
