Widely considered to be one of the chief innovators in the genre of electronic dance music known as deep house, Kerri Chandler has carved out a unique musical vision brought to life in marathon sets known to go on for 6 hours or more, he infuses elements of soul, jazz, funk, and practically any other dance rhythms to create the vivid sound tapestry unique to him. That has earned this world-class DJ, producer the affectionate nickname the Stevie Wonder of House music.

As a skilled multi-instrumentalist and Dolby Atmos certified recording engineer with a propensity for tinkering under the hood, Chandler strives to understand every aspect of sound recording and amplification. Kerri is constantly pushing the boundaries of recording technology and live-performance sound systems. When this talented DJ, and producer is behind the decks at notable venues as diverse as Printworks in London and Sub Club in Glasgow, you are guaranteed to be awash in quality music that reflects his experience as a global performer. You can never anticipate what you’re going to experience. Seamlessly transitioning from live DJing to live jam session complete with keyboards, live vocals, and loops or perhaps merging mid- 20th century studio grade reel to reels as a mixing source combined with state-of-the-art custom projection mapping design, newly developed by Panasonic to create immersive 3D environments, complete with tracks Chandler blends together while simultaneously interacting with holograms of legendary vocalists that Kerri has collaborated with though out his career.

With a discography spanning three decades, Kerri's first release Super Lover/ Get It Off on Atlantic Records in 1991 set the stage for what was to become a signature sound. His creations launched a wave of admirers and imitators of his deep lush chords and soulful grooves that stir emotions and movement. In his continuous search to inspire and nurture new talent, he forged MadTech Records and the eclectic Kaoz Theory imprints soon followed becoming the flashpoint for such artists as the Martinez Brothers, Seth Troxler, and Tony Lionni.

Kerri having just released his latest album the 24-track homage to international nightlife “Spaces and Places”, jumps headlong into the world of spatial audio with Dolby Atmos This new immersive sound format allows sounds to travel through a space not merely backward and forwards but circles in all directions. With the international support of club owners and engineers, a total of 24 iconic night spots were transformed into recording studios infusing each track with the full sound characteristics of the rooms they were recorded in. Spaces diverse as London's Ministry of Sound, Paris Rex, Berlin’s Watergate, Barcelona’s Razzmatazz, or New York's Knockdown Center creating a whole new layer of complexity and accuracy. “If I wasn’t working doing the stuff I love doing, I’d probably work at Dolby,” Chandler says. “My job became my hobby, and my hobby became my job.”

Kerri's latest series of dates brings all of this time and attention full circle combining the meticulous attention to sound, atmosphere, and craft that ensures that you will be taken on a musical adventure second to none.

Samuel Soares, known artistically as nocapz., is a Brazilian DJ and producer whose sound is grounded in culture and driven by instinct. Born in Salvador, Bahia-a region pulsing with rhythmic legacy-and now based in São Paulo, the 23-year-old has quickly established himself as one of the most exciting and refined voices rising from the global house scene.  

nocapz. doesn't simply DJ; he curates. Each set is a statement-carefully shaped by his obsession with digging, an unshakable sense of groove, and a background steeped in percussion and musicality. His selections live between worlds: classy but bold, soulful but razor-sharp, familiar yet refreshingly deep. Rooted in house, his sound freely moves through tech house, minimal, Afro house, and ghetto house-connecting the dots across decades and continents.  

Despite his age, his work reflects the experience and intuition of a much older artist. nocapz. has already released on some of the scene's most influential labels, including Hot Creations, Solid Grooves, and Gruuv. Tracks like More Love, AAAAaaaa, and Coming For Ya reveal a producer who values groove and simplicity over gimmicks-leaning into stripped-back drums, magnetic rhythms, and playful textures that let the dancefloor breathe.  

His creative instincts haven't gone unnoticed. nocapz. has earned praise and support from a string of global icons including ANOTR, Black Coffee, Michael Bibi, and The Martinez Brothers. His music speaks the same language they do: one of movement, taste, and timeless energy.  

On stage, nocapz. brings that same philosophy to life. His performances have taken him to key stages such as Só Track Boa, BOMA at Surreal Park, and Mochakk Calling Festival in Malta-where his sets delivered the rare combination of heady programming and pure dancefloor joy. He plays with conviction, connecting the crowd to deeper sonic layers without ever losing the pulse of the party.  

Underneath it all lies a deeper mission: to bring his cultural roots into the global conversation-not through clichés, but through subtleties. Growing up in Bahia surrounded by percussion, groove wasn't just a sound-it was a way of being. And through nocapz., that groove takes on a new form: contemporary, club-ready, but always soulful.  

As an artist, nocapz. is not driven by hype or formulas. He's driven by curiosity. By the excitement of finding that one hidden gem in a crate. By the feeling of watching a crowd collectively tune into something unexpected. By his belief that great music isn't just heard-it's felt. And that no matter how big or small the stage, if the groove is right, it becomes a moment that lingers.  

With an instinctive ear, a producer's discipline, and a DJ's hunger to dig deeper, nocapz. is forging his own lane-where creativity rules, culture echoes, and the music always speaks first.
