A man who needs little introduction, Southampton born techno legend Alan Fitzpatrick has spent the last decade carving out his musical niche and holding rank in the upper echelons of the underground electronic world. Few artists can claim to have headlined Berghain and also had a hit on daytime BBC Radio 1, but then there aren’t many artists like Alan Fitzpatrick. 

One of the most popular techno DJs in the world, he has rubbed shoulders with the likes of Carl Cox and Adam Beyer for the best part of a decade, performing at the world’s biggest clubs and festivals. Known primarily for his raw hard-edged sound, Alan has developed into one of dance music’s most versatile producers, equally at home putting out techno bangers on Drumcode as he is making disco-infused house anthems, or experimental electronica under his 3STRANGE alias, not to mention his impressive range of collaborations (including CamelPhat, Skream, Sasha, Rebūke and Jamie Jones). 

The We Are The Brave and Apex Faction label don adopts a no nonsense approach to A&R and in 5 short years Alan has welcomed some of Techno’s finest producers to his fold. The Englishman champions the musical output of both established artists and breakthrough alike, accumulating over 50 million Spotify Streams on We Are The Brave records since its inception in 2016. Fast-forward to 2021 and the southern powerhouse shows no sign of slowing down, his passion for music permeating all aspects of his career. The WATB frontman is renowned for curating an evening of exceptional magnitude, having already showcased his roster’s talent at The Warehouse Project, Shine Belfast, SWG3 Glasgow and the infamous Fabric nightclub in London.

TECHNO & ACID
@tommytraxrecords
Bookings: tommytraxrecords@gmail.com

Jay Tommy is believed to be the one to watch amongst the new breed of techno artists from the UK, creating a sound that combines the pounding acid warehouse with the deep and melodic, heavily influenced by the underground rave scene. 

His progress has taken years of dedication in the studio and mentoring under the innovative Mark EG at his renowned music school, resulting in an instantly recognisable sound of techno and acid. 

Since an early age, Jay has been performing with the biggest artists in techno. Having made his FOLD debut at the age of twenty-one, performing an emotional and explosive set with the king of acid techno D.A.V.E. The Drummer at the legendary London club, leaving a packed dance floor craving more. Now a regular at parties in the capital with his energy building sets, having shared the decks with the likes of Perc, Slam, Annē, Angy Kore & Gabriel Padrevita and more. 

This was followed in 2023 by his first UK festival appearance at Boomtown in Area 404, performing a high-energy acid-techno set alongside some of the best underground artists in the scene. Although some know him for his high octane sounds, his versatility is shown when supporting major artists, with his ability to adapt making him stand out from the crowd.

In spite of his young age, Jay has already released music on some of the biggest labels in techno. His main highlight so far has been the collaboration ‘Movement EP’ with Mark EG on the mighty Hydraulix at the start of 2023, with the release enjoying chart success in hard techno. This has been followed by collaboration requests to work with more heavyweight producers on prestigious labels, so listen out for those exhibited at upcoming events in the near future.

Alongside performing and producing music, Jay runs his own dark techno and acid label, Tommy Trax, which was founded in 2019. Tommy Trax has provided the perfect platform to experiment with his own unique sound and has already attracted the attention of the big hitters in techno. This has also given Jay the chance to collaborate with some huge artists, no more so than on the ‘Delete EP’ in 2021 with Dino Maggiorana, propelling the label into the spotlight of the underground rave community. The start of 2022 has seen the ‘Renaissance EP’ with Roentgen Limiter and Ayako Mori played by some of the scene’s most respected names, like Parfait, deservedly enjoying hard techno chart success at the same time. 

At the end of the same year, the ‘Intoxication EP’ by ROBPM, Nusha and Jay Tommy exploded onto the late night dance floors, with support from T78, Ben Dust, Lessss and more. The pinnacle moment when ROBPM dropped the main track at the huge Affenkäfig Festival in Germany. His final success of the year came when Jay’s rework of his original track ‘Hidden Addiction’ was supported by Nusha on her world tours.

As the hype increases over the coming years, it will be interesting to see how his music ascends into the global scene and shakes the late night dance floors. It’s clear that Jay Tommy will influence musical trends with his own unique take on the warehouse rave.

A duo of prolific writing madmen, who devoted their lives to help bring moments of euphoria to those who are subjected to their DJ sets and productions. It’s all about sharing spaces together where we hold no boundaries. No language, religion, racism, just pure unity. 
Music is the purest form of communication, we thrive on projecting positivity. 

Our mission is to encourage smiles upon faces.

A true artist in every sense of the word, Layton Giordani stands firmly as one of the most popular tastemakers of techno’s new school, with his pioneering musical vision serving as a contemporary voice for the younger generation. Spending years acquiring knowledge from musical greats, the 28 year old possesses a wealth of experience far beyond his years and has now undeniably earned his rank in the upper echelon of techno. With a repertoire that knows no bounds, the dexterous New Yorker has explored a new dimension of scope with each passing year, nurturing a monumental discography that echoes staunch dedication to his craft. Giordani’s palpable successes can be largely credited to his extensive stock of knowledge, garnered through an insatiable work ethic and years spent earning his keep in the industry. Solely focused on his passion for music from the age of just 13, Giordani’s path forever changed at 19 years old after watching Danny Tenaglia perform live at Pacha NYC. Deeply inspired by the formative experience, Layton began to master his craft behind the decks, landing a pivotal residency at Brooklyn’s Output NY that would consequently steam-roll his career into quick maturity. Thanks to the faith they instilled in him, Layton turned heads and began making a name for himself through his deft touch and sharp ear. Seeking further guidance from another of the long-standing greats, Giordani spent countless hours under the mentorship of Adam Beyer, honing his composition talents and studying the cardinal cuts of techno’s rich history. The affiliation resulted in Giordani’s first releases under the Swedish maven’s storied imprints; an EP titled Unspoken on Truesoul followed shortly by Rivington, his input to Drumcode’s celebrated A-Sides series. News of the untapped star’s fresh sensibilities circulated and in 2017, Giordani erupted onto the scene with his aptly-named debut album contribution to Drumcode in the form of Where It Begins. The 12-track LP served as the first seismic indication of his capabilities and subsequently received critical acclaim from artists, new fans and industry specialists alike.
