Kinetica is an artist who is proving to be one of the most exciting talents from the world famous Irish trance scene. Dee Henry aka Kinetica has been making some serious noise across the scene with his signature high energy, uplifting trance and hard tech trance production sound. With an electric blend of skill and passion for trance music flowing through him, this artist is sending shock waves far and wide as his original tracks, remixes and killer reworks earn him support from the who's who of trance music.

After cutting his teeth on some up and coming labels, the legendary Black Hole Recordings first discovered Kinetica when he remixed the massive classic 'Kamaya Painters (Tiesto & Benno De Geoij) - Endless Wave' which went on to receive full release on the iconic Dutch imprint In Trance We Trust, introducing Kinetica on a global level. Summer 2015 saw Black Hole Recordings making Kinetica one of their roster artists after In Trance We Trust became a regular output for his music with nine releases to date. Collaborating with the trance legends Talla 2xlc and Binary Finary, his reworking of classics plus stunning original tracks and remixes caught the attention of ITWT A&R Menno De Jong who asked him for a personal remix which then lead to Kinetica and Menno's collaboration 'Aurelis', earning him his first top 10 spot in the trance charts. Sterling reviews in DJ MAG plus regular support from Paul van Dyk, Aly & Fila, Sean Tyas, Menno De Jong and many more including numerous radio plays on Armin Van Buuren's A State Of Trance, FSOE Radio and Degenerate Radio have helped pave the way towards the next level.

Kinetica is currently signing music to the mega labels FSOE and Vandit, also Sean Tyas and Activa's Regenerate and RAM's Nocturnal Animals amongst other smaller but equal quality labels. In 2019 he created a tougher tech sound that caught the interest of FSOE Clandestine where he has became a regular with his track 'The Rattler' being selected by Aly & Fila for their 'Sands Of Time' compilation. He also created a BXR bass bomb called 'Major Tom' which the legendary UK hard trance label Tidy Two picked up, this one has devastated crowds of up to 10,000 at Belfasts SSE during the Subculture Belfast Tour. On the vocal front Kinetica has already worked with Irish trance royalty Audrey Gallagher in a collab with Binary Finary called 'In Our Blood' and also the fabulous talents of Denise Rivera with 'When The Heart Runs Dry' on Amsterdam Trance Records.

A regular team up is Kinetica & Inversed, Anton and Dee are childhood friends who always shine bright when they get together in the studio whether its the more uplifting style or tech trance with hard trance fusions. Talking about collabs, Kinetica's biggest personal studio achievement to date was teaming up with the trance godfather himself Paul Van Dyk for 'First Contact' which features on the luminary German's 2020 album 'Guiding Light'.

Born in Drogheda in ROI but growing up in NI, living in Belfast and with Ireland as an island being the modern force in global trance, Dee is carving out his place amongst some of the biggest and most popular artists in the game. While playing to the Belfast crowd is amazing, the dream of an international DJ career is already underway, from playing his Dutch debut for the huge Luminosity Events during their annual Trance Gathering event in Amsterdam to regular trips across the water to play in England and many more countries to follow in 2020 and beyond.

There are few that can say they were there when the acid house boom fully erupted in the early nineties, most artists have a very short career span and many ride the wave that they have caught until it reaches fruition, then pack up their headphones and return to their everyday life.  But there are a small handful of artists whom never seem to disappear, these few, are the true soldiers of sound, the ones that no matter how hard things get, and how tough the hills are to climb, they always manage to stay on their path whilst others fall by the wayside.

London born & Bred Carl Nicholson is without doubt one of these people, Carl started his journey way back in 1990 as an Hardcore MC, and after months of watching top end DJ’s at the time such as Micky Finn & Carl Cox, Carl decided to see what all the hype was about and give it a shot himself, and after 6 gruelling months of his very own brand of ‘Wild Horses’ mixing, Carl got a feel for it and the rest as they say is history.

In the summer of 1994, Carl came across a tape, a tape that was to change his life forever, this tape was the Tony de Vit mix on the massively popular ‘Retrospective of House’ compilation by Fantazia, and Carl simply could not believe his ears.  From that day forward Carl lived, ate, and slept all things TdV, he used to follow him around London whenever he was playing, find a good spot near the decks and just stand, watch and listen.

After about 6 months, Carl finally got the courage up to speak to Tony, and bear in mind to Carl, Tony was a musical God of monstrous proportions, so this was no easy task to say the least, but after a few minutes of chatting with him, Carl realised that this man was just like any other guy, he wasn’t a god, he was a normal friendly bloke who had just happened to be in the right place at the right time, and that gave Carl a confidence, something he had lacked in early years, and it dawned on him that with hard work, dedication and a burning passion for the music and the people it attracted, anything was possible.

Since 1995 Carl has been on the forefront of the UK Underground dance scene, he began his journey living in a doorway in the west end of London, learnt his craft from the undisputed king of Hard House, Tony de Vit.  He’s played alongside everyone from Fatboy Slim, Farley Jackmaster Funk, Frankie Knuckles & Chemical Brothers to Judge Jules, John ‘OO’ Fleming, Paul Van Dyk & Lisa Lashes for virtually every major hard edged brand and festival in the UK & Worldwide including Cream, Judgement Sundays, Frantic, Fevah, Glastonbury Festival, Insomniacz, Bulldog Bash, Miss Moneypennys, Soundscape (NZ), B2T, Traxx (SA), Timeless, Hard Dance Ibiza (IBZ), Sundissential, Trance port Festival (ARG), Round Bass (NL) & Tasty to name only a handful, plus he is the only Hard Dance DJ to have received a residency at the world famous Fabric nightclub in London for DTPM.




Expect an intense and unforgettable sonic assault.

Izzy is a music producer & DJ from Amsterdam, The Netherlands. She played on parties & festivals in Thailand, Germany & The Netherlands alongside Alex M.O.R.P.H, Cold Blue, Asteroid, Signum, Alessandra Roncone, RAM among others.

Her tracks & sets are highly influenced by psy & tech. A fresh and forward thinking style!

Her unique sound combined with her energetic & open personality both behind the decks & in personal life, makes her one of the fastest growing artists in the scene.

Found my passion for dance music around 1994 when my sister introduced me to artists like The Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Josh Wink, CJ Bolland and Orbital.
From here i started my journey through the rave culture and was pretty much in to all styles of Hardcore, Drum N Bass, House and Trance.

Finally in the year 1998 i got my hands on my first set of turntables the Soundlab belt drives, which im pretty sure every Dj stared with back then. Mainly mixing Drum & Bass and Garage i went on and started my journey as a Dj in my local clubs/bars around the Surrey area.

The year 2000 started a new phase for me when my friends dragged me along to Peach at Camden Palace, i was always into Trance music but from this moment i knew this was now the direction i wanted to take but focusing more on the Harder styles of Trance and around 2005 we decided to start our own nights called Summit and Summit Above 160 which hosted some amazing Hard Trance/House and Hardcore parties at clubs such as Soundshaft, Hidden, Club Life, The Mass and The Light box.

As a Dj i was blessed with bookings for events such as Heat, Frantic, Hardhouse academy, WildChild, Judgement Sundays, Raindance and Epidemic  just to name a few.

For me now it’s all about breaking the Trance scene. Exciting times ahead so keep checking back for updated tracks and Dj mixes.

Thank you for stopping by :-)
