Much can be said about Agent 818 (Nohe Gomez) as an extraordinary artist. A seasoned DJ, together as an innovative producer is what makes Agent 818 an immense MUST hear talent.

Agent 818 cites Armand Van Helden, Ben Watt, DJ Quik, Dr. Dre, Steely Dan & The Cure as some of his biggest influences. He says he pulls his creativity from his exposure to the Los Angeles urban elements, anywhere from the Hollywood after-hour scene, to driving to the beaches of southern California sitting in traffic and taking in the LA scenic views of graffiti decorated buildings. With his true passion for real Jack’n underground House music, Agent 818 is a must see DJ in action.

Playing other peoples music for other peoples enjoyment since 1993.

Darius is a self proclaimed "House Addict".  He fell in love with the house sound as a teenager living in Montreal back in the early '90s when he would stay up late on Friday nights and record a dance mix show on Montreal radio.  He was hooked from then on.  He then proceeded to start mixing with one tape deck and a CD player and never looked back.  

When he moved to Vancouver in the late '90's, he started buying records almost daily and spent most of his free time at his favourite record stores at the time, Bassix and Mekanix records.  Over the next few years, Darius held various residencies and ran 2 club nights in Vancouver, playing alongside such talent as Lawnchair Generals and Johnny Fiasco, as well as playing at numerous after hours and raves.   After getting tired of both the late nights and politics in the scene, he decided it was time to hang up the headphones in the early 2000s, but the love of house music still burned inside of him as the years passed. 

In 2013 he decided he wanted to get back into DJ'ing and purchased a basic Pioneer controller and started to collect digital tracks again.  Over the past few years Darius has been busy making a name for himself in the underground scene with numerous guest mix appearances around the world on such labels as House Salad, Reason2Funk, Uglyhouse, Little Routine, Selecta Music, Leven Underground and House Jet Radio just to name a few.  He also started the very popular "SPEED BUMPS" mix series which showcases his love for hip hop and jazz as he shows his versatility as a DJ by blending mixes of nu jazz, hip hop instrumentals and acid jazz flavours reminiscent of Mark Farina's legendary series, Mushroom Jazz. 

He also launched the hugely successful "Soul Room Sessions" podcast showcasing the soulful and jazzy side of house music and downtempo beats with guest mixes from some of the biggest names in the game and the series is still going strong!

In 2017 Darius got his first taste of out of town gigging playing live shows all over the West Coast from his hometown in Vancouver, to San Francisco and Oakland.  Stay tuned for much more from him in the near future!


Brian Gardner - Soul Foundation Recordings (Chicago/Las Vegas)

Most people look one in the eye to try to sum up a person’s soul or read 
emotions. To read Brian, you would be wiser to listen to one of his sets.
Brian's range of emotional expression is wide and deep and his sets reflect what he is feeling
at that moment. Whether his set is comprised of the jazzy, soulful grooves of content
and harmony, or the hard hitting intensity and angst of industrial techno; 
at the end of the day, to Brian, it's all HOUSE.

People have described Brian as, "a big ball of energy, giving himself over the
turntables, as he tries to let the spirit be it". That kind of spiritual energy,
focus, and drive has lead Brian to his current position among Chicago's finest.
Brian gained knowledge of the underground sound while he worked as a buyer at Chicago Record store staples (Hot Jams, Hip House, WaxADDICT) from 1999-2006. During that time, Brian made many connections that lead to a series of successful residencies and bookings at various Chicago Venues, Lofts, and club nights such as; Mad Bar (Music-101), Boom Boom Room, Darkroom, Smart Bar, ROOTS, Sub-T, I Love House Music Wednesdays, along with many others.

For the past two decades, Brian has consistently performed throughout North America
alongside some of the greats for packed crowds in internationally recognized venues. 
He dipped his hands into the realm of theater in 2000, when he worked with Asylum 137 
on a dark theatre production featuring European and Native American clowning. The  
diverse soundtrack encompassed house, techno, classical opera, and a "cirque du soleil" 
style of music. Through ownership of Soul Foundation Recordings in Las Vegas, a highly 
respected collective of artists based in Chicago with a global following, Brian is dedicated 
to reviving what some would say has “been lost” in house music. 

With productions on labels like Farris Wheel Recordings, Minuendo Recordings (Spain), RealDEEP Recordings, Thought Records & remixes on Black Error Recordings (SA) or his own imprint Soul Foundation Recordings, this Disc
Jockey/Producer is undoubtedly tied to music as a part of his being. According
to him, "Music is the only religion I have; it definitely saved me." Whether
Brian is spinning or producing, his sound is unmistakably from the soul...
