Salsalino is a young south vallejo representative who has blessed with this god given talent to put words together. He also spent a significant amount of time in sacramento which is ultimately where he started rapping. His inspirations for music are his mother, his father, and older brothers Babytreeze and Sircloud. His favorite artists are Nas and Eminem he feels like his style is very much a mixture of the two with a splash of bay area in there.

Heist, also known as Strider if you’re looking to go way back into his discography, has been dominating, innovating and revolutionising speaker bins for 20 years now. No matter the year, his tunes always felt relevant, yet discernibly his, and in many cases were integral in pushing the limits of the Drum and Bass spectrum a bit further and a bit deeper than the status quo. His sound has travelled the ins and outs of the Drum and Bass super-highway many times, maturing as it grew from its humble yet bad and bashy beginnings found on classics like ‘Company 7’, ‘Beetle juice’, ‘Philly Styler’ and ‘Iron Hide’.

Also a badboy DJ for just as long (longer than heist in fact - he was dj’ing in the early 90’s under a different synonym). It’s tunes like ‘Go to work’, Sleep in ya eyes and ‘Don’t hold back’ as well as his high-octane DJ sets, that propelled him into super-stardom way-back-when. And in the minds of many, solidified Heist as a bonafide legend resulting in too many collaborations, endorsements and appearances to list. 
Having graced the catalogues of many iconic, foundational labels like Playaz, Charge, Ganja, V, Digital Soundboy, Frontline, Full Cycle, Philly Blunt, Low down deep and Metalheadz! All one needs to do to understand why Drum and Bass royalty like Dillinja, Hype, and Goldie, took notice so early on is…listen. Listen to any of it! It’s as though Heist had the foresight to be as fastidious about what he released to others as he has been about what he releases on his own signature imprints, Sumo Beatz, Calypso and Co-Lab.

Receiving previous critical acclaim whilst engineering for DNB forefather and legend, Goldie, as well as on his own celebrated productions, Heist has found a home for most of his current output on two-time award-winning label, Low Down Deep Recordings. Big things are coming on the label from Heist, like the cheeky ‘Bug Patrol’ and also ‘Felt Rich’ both doing dance floor damage from a host of DJ’s and support on BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM amongst other radio stations for both of these tracks and most likely more Heist bangers! Some exciting future projects are also in the works for a few labels that have yet to see the likes of Heist...The return of Sumo Beatz is also in store, with a bunch of ‘select cuts’ he has been just waiting to get out there on his own label. If history serves, there’s truly no telling what Heist will cook up next or how hard his freshly-brewed baselines will hit, but the future does look bright for the now DNB legend, to say the very least. With a plethora of music in the works as well as tour dates across Europe and the globe actively brewing in the cauldron, 2025 is looking deadly.

The names Mustafa and Iowa would never associate, but over the course of the past 20 years he has been responsible for, or directly involved in countless Techno music events organized in Iowa. Originally from Bosnia, Mustafa has managed to bond and nurture a flourishing Underground Dance Music scene in the state of Iowa, and he has garnered the full attention of fans and fellow DJs alike by performing to wild crowds across the Midwest in addition to releasing his own original music production.
 
Mustafa has released and remixed material for various music artists around the globe over the past 5 years. His career began in Des Moines, Iowa, but his DJ performance has taken him to stages across the Midwest, as well as the world. In 2007, he co-founded the first Techno music label in Iowa. Solar Cathedral Recordings successfully operated for three years and featured globally recognized releases and remixes from producers DJ Misjah, Woody McBride, Dustin Zahn, Mladen Tomic, M.Gervais, Dejan Milicevic, and many more.

In 2013, Mustafa helped form a new production company, Ekvilibrium. Ekvilibrium presents a diverse and well balanced group of artists, determined to bring professional and high quality events in Iowa. 

Mustafa is a man of many talents, but he specializes in drawing a crowd and spinning them into a frenzy on the dance floor. His strength at working a crowd is a natural extension of his deep passion for making people dance. His energy is infectious; his love and enthusiasm are contagious! Anyone who experiences his performances will, no doubt, become a believer - not only in him, but also in Techno music!
