Hailing from provincial Italy, world class DJ & producer Benny Benassi is a name needing little introduction but always deserving of wide admiration and acclaim.  Indulging in a career spanning fifteen plus years, Benassi is renown as a humble, authentic and charming character who has grown from club DJ to festival king to multi-million selling record producer taking success in his stride. Trademarking his unique infusion of house and electro with his global smash “Satisfaction” Benny has continued to create music which is a clear evolution of this signature sound but never deviating too far. 

There is no better place to start delving into the rich history of the Benassi career than with his international blockbuster, “Satisfaction” and its game-changing music video became his launch pad into stardom. Created with his cousin and producer, Alle Benassi, and inspired by the car horns outside an open street facing window, this single catapulted into the charts with a #1 in France, #2 in the UK and Germany. Followed by his debut album Hypnotica, which reached top 20 across nearly all parts of Europe within the first month of release. 

The next few years for Benny were a culmination of successes, whether it be the major festivals he went on the play (Coachella, EDC, Ultra Music Festival, Tomorrowland to name a few) or his next artist album, Rock N Rave in 2008. The same year he won a Grammy Award for his ground breaking remix of Public Enemy “Bring The Noise” further catapulting the Benassi name into stardom. 

In 2011, Benny teamed up with a star-studded album cast for his album Electroman which featured T-Pain, Kelis, Jean-Baptsiste and Apl.de.ap amongst others and most famously Gary Go with his chart-topping single “Cinema”.  The Skrillex remix of “Cinema” not only went Gold in the US and platinum in Australia and Canada but won the Benassi’s another Grammy whilst holding firm in the iTunes top 10 dance chart for over 6 months. 

Still on this exceptional career high, Benny Benassi combined talents with Chris Brown to create one of the biggest cross-over dance records of its time with “Beautiful People”. The following years have been a measure of incredible world tours and releases, most notably his record “Dance The Pain Away” with John Legend, which premiered live on stage at Coachella with John himself. 

2016 saw Benny released his first album in five years Danceaholic, an unexpected, stunning cocktail of already released tracks, two unreleased reworks of older singles and brand new songs, led by the hit summer anthem “Paradise”, once again with Chris Brown. “Paradise” stayed in the Top 50 UK charts for 10 weeks and boasts more than 65 million video views and close to 47 million Spotify streams. 

In recent years, Benny's main releases include “Everybody Needs A Kiss” featured US duo Sofi Tukker racking up over 10 millions streams online and was featured as the sound of gay pride for Musica.ly, "Lonely Nights" featuring Lil Yachty, interspersed with two great house-oriented tracks, "Inside" with Chris Nasty, performing well in clubs and on streaming platforms and "Everybody Hates Monday Mornings" with his own production outfit, BB Team, and featuring the eccentric and charismatic YouTuber, Canguro English.

Beyond his own productions he brought his sound to a wider musical audience with a flurry of high-profile remixes with the likes of Bob Marley & The Wailers, Giorgio Moroder, Madonna, Sean Paul and the Rolling Stones, to name but a few; whilst maintaining a weekly radio show on the US heavy-weight iHeart Radio broadcasting to a staggering quarter of a billion listeners monthly.

Some say mredrollo doesn’t produce music, he channels it from ancient celestial archives buried deep in the 7th astral plane. Others say he simply opens his laptop, hit’s play and lets Rick Rubin do the rest. What we do know is that when his tracks hit, timelines fracture, chakras realign and crowds achieve spontaneous enlightenment somewhere between the second drop and the matcha tea station. 

With grooves hand-carved from Saturn’s inner rings and melodies whispered to him during deep REM sleep, mredrollo’s sound isn’t just music, it’s an initiation ritual. He’s been described as “a cosmic pearl hidden deep in the sea,” “the messiah of melodic house,” and “that guy whose set made me cry and text my ex.” His mixes don’t transition, they teleport. His drops don’t hit, they awaken. So powerful they’ve allegedly caused small rifts in local space-time. 

Having performed across Australia, Asia, America and a series of venues so underground they’ve never passed a fire inspection, mredrollo remains genre-less, fearless, and gloriously undefined. While others obsess over angles, algorithms and curating the illusion of depth, he’s out here melting minds and triggering deeply inappropriate spiritual awakenings. 

Because to him, electronic music isn’t just sound, it’s a way of life. A higher frequency. A sacred path one dare not tread, lest they become yet another soul whose identity hinges entirely on ID’ing tracks. His music isn’t a journey. He is the journey. Not everyone’s ready for ascension. This isn’t a career, it’s a calling. And you? You’re already late to the ceremony.

Wolf’s usual selections travel from house to techno, influenced by strong percussive grooves and deep but uplifting vibes. His sets lean heavily to new releases and fresh artists, weaved with layers of live re-mixed loops and samples. Mike's style is shaped to fit Balearic summer nights or days, either in the club, poolside by the beach, or on the side stage at a festival.

With a career starting in the Sydney underground house music scene, Mike decided to move to Hong Kong in 2012 to co-founded the electronic music school and booking agency - Sol Passion Music. He has had numerous residencies & guest performances in some of the most iconic clubs in both cities as well as touring multiple times throughout South East Asia and playing at music festivals like Clockenflap (HK) & Sonar (HK).
