XSI is a French Psy-Trance project of 2 members, Bart Bayona aka STRYKER & Jean-Marc Segondy aka BIONIX .

Due to a meeting that was bound to happen in one of the most famous club in paris, The GIBUS, where they were both resident Djs for 2 years, the trance band Xtra Sound Independant was born as an active hit maker.

The first XSI album « Warning Zone » (released on Mind Control Records) was very successful, leading to major bookings in some of the biggest international trance events such as XXXperience in Brazil, Arcadia and Action in Japan, Freedom Festival in Portugal and Beat Patrol in Austria. They've played in many other countries such as Mexico, Switzerland, Germany, India, Serbia, Russia, Spain, Nepal, England and many more. 
In 2009, they released 2 more successful albums : « XSI & Friends » (Phantasm Records), and a collaboration album as « Talamasca vs XSI » (Mind Control Records). At the same time,  Jean-Marc launched his solo project : BIONIX.

In 2011 they released a banging EP ‘’Drop In This’’ on Hommega Productions, at that time the Full-On leading label.

In the same year they also created United Beat Records with there friend MAD MAXX with who they’ve made a very avant-gardism project : WILD MONKEYS.

Getting known for the edge of their production skills, Bart is now a major mastering engineer on the trance scene with XSI Mastering. So in between touring and engineering work they give 3 years to finally release their album Dancefloor Apocalypse in march 2014. A pure Psy-Trance bomb that is now played all over the world, be ready for the « Apocalypse World Tour » beginning on fall September!

What’s 2 m tall, lives Behind the Iron Curtain, has 1605 reasons to run an awesome label and *fucking flies*?
Meet UMEK, a techno legend from Slovenia.
UMEK is personally responsible for kickstarting the electronic music scene in his home country by first organizing illegal raves and then becoming one of Slovenia’s most wanted export products and number one music ambassador to the whole world.
And he does fly! Around 100 times per year, visiting almost every continent each year. His gig diary ranges from dark underground clubs in Berlin to massive techno stages on world’s most renowned festivals. Apart from making his name in the DJ booth, he’s also a tireless producer. He mostly releases on his own imprint 1605, and most of his tracks end up on the very top of Beatport’s charts. After more than 25 years as a professional musician, he decided to use his experience and skills in the entrepreneurial world. Together with his managers, he founded a music- tech startup Viberate (www.viberate.com), where they are building the world’s greatest music platform.

TEKNOTRIBE: The South African techno juggernaut

The Electronic Dance Music (EDM) landscape is constantly writhing with evolution. Genres often split through binary fission into two distinct sub-genres. Vibrant sub-cultures attach themselves to these genres and the whole scene is constantly stimulated by this healthy dynamism. Some genres explode and go mainstream; others fizzle out and die rather sad, pathetic deaths. But some genres, like Castle Lager, stand the test of time.

One of these genres is techno. And one of the biggest proponents of techno is Teknotribe!

It's a name synonymous with the most fundamental underground scene in Johannesburg and, lately, is growing on a national scale. Brewed and distilled over the years, it is more than just a name nailed to a night out. Teknotribe is an experience. It's a sensory overload that will leave you breathless and enchanted. This doesn't come about through some fluke. It isn't just pure luck that makes any Teknotribe production a mind-blowing success. Teknotribe, and the people behind it, literally live and breathe techno. Their passion for techno seeps from their pores and is more than palpable. This is the magic ingredient to any successful production.

Teknotribe has always been at the bleeding edge of innovation and they are thus best prepared for change and, in fact, are engineering that change with their pioneering outlook. This keeps Teknotribe at the forefront of the EDM scene, constantly adapting, evolving, and assimilating, to bring you – the discerning EDM fanatic – the very best the techno and psytrance the world has to offer.
