Bill Halsey, the man behind Cosmosis  (side projects: Abraxas, Mumbo Jumbo ) is a former professional guitarist from London. 
As a pro guitarist he performed TV and radio shows, played with many bands, playing Rock, Funk, Jazz, Blues, Pop and Hip-Hop, and toured with bands around Europe and Australasia.
 
Bill says : "Being a session muso was a game of extremes; some of the bands that I played with contained some of the most incredibly talented musicians that I ever had the pleasure to blag my way onto a stage with. On the other hand many of the bands were way beyond bad and I ended up having to commit some of the most heinious musical crimes known to man on a very regular basis - in the name of making a living..."
 
Honing his writing and recording skills by composing and and recording pop tracks for ten years before an epiphany with dance music in the early 90's caused him to pursue creating electronic music.
 
Much in demand for live appearances playing his unique style of full power Psytrance, during the last 20 years Cosmosis live shows have occurred on dance floors quite literally all over the globe, in such places as:
 
Japan, Taiwan, Brazil, Israel, India, Bali, Germany, Australia, New Zealand, Colombia, United States, Egypt, Switzerland, Hungary, Sweden, Slovakia, Denmark, England, Spain, Canada, Serbia, Scotland, Belgium, Finland, Holland, Greece, South Africa, Russia, France, Turkey, Ireland, Cyprus, Mexico and Portugal, Croatia, Bulgaria, Austria, Italy, Macedonia and plays regularly in many of these countries
 
Bill now divides his time between making full power dance music in his studio, lazing about in a hammock with his acoustic guitar in the garden drinking Oolong tea, and touring the full power Cosmosis show on dance-floors and festivals worldwide.

Currently based in Ibiza  at "The Vibrozone" where he continues to create music both solo and in collaboration with other producers.

“Megapixel is always sending it in her sets, accompanied with an infectious animation of energy through movement. Driving, dark, deep, blissful, cute but not to be taken lightly.’'

Megapixel discovered electronic dance music in Western Australia where she was first introduced to psytrance in 2006. She immediately fell in love with the music and culture. She has always had a strong connection to music from a very young age playing the piano, flute and guitar so it was very natural for her to make the progression to DJing and immerse herself in this world. Megapixel played her first set in 2008 quickly becoming a dance floor favourite in Perth. She dedicated many hours developing her skills and started to hold events of her own. In 2011 she wanted to explore this further and made the move to Melbourne where she continued to grow.

Now after 17 years since her debut, Megapixel has established herself as a solid edition to any line up. She has played at some of the biggest dance floors in Australia at Rainbow Serpent Festival, Esoteric Festival, Earthcore Festival, Babylon Festival, Paradigm Festival, Earth Frequency Festival, Elements Festival, Wild Horses Festival, Dragon Dreaming Festival, just to name a few. With hard work and determination driving her forward she also gained popularity over seas playing main stage at Boom Festival in Portugal, Ozora Festival in Hungary, Sunshine Gathering in Japan, Gentenkaiki Festival in Japan, AgeHA in Japan and Dimension Festival in New Zealand.

Megapixel has become one of the most known and recognised Australian DJs in the global psytrance community. Her ability to mix her energetic style with the Japanese middle groove sound didn’t go unnoticed signing to Grasshopper Records in 2015. Preferring to keep her sets versatile she can be heard laying down funky and fun sets for the daytime, or a more serious, groovy and solid sound for the night time setting. With her passion and skill for DJing, she continues to make an impact and you can expect her floor shaking sets to take you on a captivating journey every time.
