"DJ, Producer, Musician and Drum & Bass enthusiast alike, 31 year old Deviation hails out of the musical jigsaw piece that broke off the most southern point of England. When either away for months on end navigating ships around the world or taking his break from work at home, he always somehow manages to find time creating music, aided by a childhood of musical exploration and an upbringing in a musically-influenced household. 

After discovering Drum & Bass from a very young age, he has continuously developed a variety of productions and crafted his mixing style over the years that showcase his love for the entire spectrum of his genre. For him, it’s all about quality over quantity, deep vibes and a unique style that deviates (pun intended) from your standard producer. 

With an arsenal of productions scattered across thriving labels, you can almost feel his sense of crucial importance to release only what he feels to be the highest standard of quality dance-floor smashers, tech influenced rollers and mesmerizing liquid masterpieces. He is truly what we can say to be a young artist we are all eagerly looking out for."

Rango is guitarist, vocalist, composer and producer Matthew Meadows, operating on the fringes of the Emerald City of Seattle.  His music evokes 70's hard rock vibes with grinding guitars and heartfelt, poignant lyrics.  Expect scorching riffs blended with psychedelic sounds, ranging from alternative metal to blues rock, Americana to love songs.

Ellissentials musical career started as a young pianist at 10 years old. Always enjoying electronic music in video games, and growing up with such movies as "Breakin'" he's really grown to love the genres of Breakbeat, House, Techno and other genre gaps in between. The name Ellissentials utilizes a combination of the artist’s last name, Ellis, and the word 'essentials.'

Leveraging his +10 years of DJing, Ellissentials has produced 9 unofficial album releases over the years and is looking to continue pursuing musical endeavors. Reaching the pinnacle of previously set goals, Kris accomplished his dream of distributing his productions/mixes to the masses. Exploiting the intricacies of Ableton Live in combination with various hardware over the years, Ellis feels as though future productions will inspire his listeners to dance and get lost in the music. Recognizing the value music has had in his life, he is pushed to use his creativity to help impact others.

Labels:
-Diablo Loco
-V.I.M. Records
-Kick It Recordings
-Kind Crime Recordings
-Ravesta Records
-Red Robot Records

Ellissentials recently attained support from none other than The Crystal Method,  has had a # 17 single hit in the Beatport Breaks Top 100 chart, been in multiple "Top 10 Must Hear Breaks Tracks" charts and in 2014 attained a #1 Breaks EP release that held position for a bit.
