CRAFT B is a combo of DJ's and producers from Latvia, formed in 1998. The project consists of two members – Sandis Soms, Andis Shumis.

CRAFT B international debut happened in 2006 when two instrumental deep house tracks "Ride" and "Fall" were released on Amber Moods Sampler EP by Amber Muse Records. Later that year "Ride" (Santi Touch Edit) was included in one of the most successful mixed compilations in Lithuania - "RyRalio Cafe" by RyRalio DJs.

In summer 2006 CRAFT B produced another uplifting house tune "Sundancin'" which got released on Amber Muse. Before becoming a vocal hit a year later, "Sundancin" was included in the mixed compilation "Sobieski Ogas: Glam Gallery" by Bogdan Taran and Andrius Rio, brought to more than 90,000 readers of "Cosmopolitan" and "FHM" magazines in Latvia and Lithuania. Shortly thereafter Amber Muse Records released a vocal version of "Sundancin" featuring the vocal of Derek Conyer (USA).

In 2008 CRAFT B continued their successful collaboration with US vocalists by creating the wonderful "Summer Voyage" with Nica Brooke from California. During the promo period this single reached Top 15 on Traxsource.com web-store. In 2009 "Summer Voyage" was signed by Hed Kandi for single release and included in "World Series: Brazil", Ministry Of Sound: Ibiza Terrace Mix and Ministry Of Sound: Decade Of Dance 2000-2009 compilations.

In winter 2010 CRAFT B released remix for MuSol & Central Avenue single ‘’I Believe’’ with Pete Simpson & Natasha Watts.

CRAFT B 's brand new single "Climbing" with Detroit's vocalist Veronique was released in spring 2010.

Besides working on CRAFT B productions, members are frequently performing as DJs at various dance events and venues in the Baltics. They have shared the stage with most of Latvia's leading DJs as well as international artists like Audiowhores, Shapeshifters, Copyright, Timo Maas, Paul Van Dyk, ATB, Dave Storm and others.

In 2012 CRAFT B officially ended the project’s activity. However, at the end of 2025 the duo reunited and produced two new tracks – "Summer Vibes" and "Deep Inside", marking the return of CRAFT B to the music scene.

As KAN, my DJ alter ego inspired by my Mayan horoscope sign, I weave multicultural musical stories with a cross-genre approach that connects folkloric and urban sounds from around the world. My sets blend organic-electronic fusions that are both soulful and dynamic, resonating deeply on and off dance floors. Alongside performing, I’ve also co-created events and festivals that champion the evolution of vibrant music, fostering a borderless community of sound and rhythm that embraces diversity and exploration.

Nic Fanciulli has become one of the most influential artists to come out of the international dance scene in several years. With so many projects constantly in the works, Fanciulli stands out as a truly multitalented worldwide artist, with this perhaps being the key to his longevity in an increasingly fast-paced industry.
 
Fanciulli’s kept up a big Ibiza presence over the years, becoming one of the most respected figures on the island. Following on from two successful years running ‘La Familia’ at infamous 5000 capacity outdoor venue Ushuaia alongside Joris Voorn, 2016 saw Nic embark on his first solo residency at the iconic Pacha. ‘We Are The Night’ saw the likes of Guy Gerber, Sasha, Bicep, Agoria, Matthew Dear and Tiga play at the club alongside Nic. Having conquered Ibiza, We Are The Night has also held parties in Croatia, Barcelona, Miami, New York and Mexico with many more to come. Aside from Nic’s own projects, he’s a regular of all the key parties on the island. He’s been a headline guest at ANTS - Ushuaia’s flagship underground party - since its inception, and also put in appearances at respected residencies Paradise, Guy Gerber’s RUMORS, Circo Loco at DC10 and INSANE at Pacha over the last year alone. Most notably, he played a major part in the last season of one of Ibiza’s best-loved clubs, Space; firstly, playing the closing of its longest-running party, Carl Cox’s Revolution, and then proceeding to make history playing the final set at the club’s last ever closing party, in an incendiary six hour back to back session with Carl himself.

As a producer, Nic has created a plethora of solo tracks that have received huge critical acclaim including a Grammy Nomination, in addition to unleashing a heady collection of memorable remixes, including his recent rework of Jamie xx’s ‘SeeSaw’. Nic is responsible for a high output of a sleek, intelligent yet driving strain of house and techno, and is famed for his compilation CDs, having completed mixes for Renaissance, Global Underground, Balance and Defected In the House as well as an incredible three Essential Mixes; he is now gearing up for the release of his highly anticipated debut album.

Nic’s genuine desire to share music with others led to him founding what’s gone on to be one of the UK’s biggest house and techno labels, Saved Records. An important purveyor of international, underground house and techno, Saved has become a global brand, renowned for cutting-edge releases and standout events around the globe. Responsible for helping to break the careers of a diverse mix of producers, Saved Records has established Nic as a key tastemaker.

It’s this continued desire to share his experiences that also led to Nic starting up his worldwide festival brand, The Social. Beginning life as a way of bringing world-class names to Maidestone, it’s grown not only from a one day event to a three day festival, but will now also be branching out to hold parties in Mexico and Columbia for 2017 and looks set to continue growing.
 
Nic’s journey to his current status has been an entirely organic one, born out of his genuine love for the scene and a desire to share this with others. His tireless work ethic has sees him continue to tour the globe relentlessly and expanding his many projects – 2021 is set to be yet another landmark year for the artist.

Established in London, 1999.

Having started his musical career as a disc jockey already in 2005, El Harmony (real name Māris Laizāns) has already managed to accumulate a lot of experience during his DJ career. Since 2022, he hosts his radio show Nakts Ritmi on Kurzemes radio.

He has played at many different events and clubs, thus constantly expanding and developing his vision of developments in dance music trends. This is clearly reflected in his dj-sets. They are very diverse and musically colorful - from airy and calm deep house vibrations to energetic techno, progressive rhythms.

This musical diversity is also manifested in the selection of musical material - the main criterion for music being the quality indicators rather than popularity. That's why in El Harmony's sets you can hear how a modern dance hit is followed by a 10-year-old song, because the main thing is a musically interesting and full of positive emotions dj-set!
