Sirsax is a friend of of the  famed "Renaissance” single and compilation label.  After promoting hundreds of parties around the world, DJing came at the request of many friends who enjoyed his musical taste and energy.

Sirsax has a long musical pedigree including classical music composition and performance training in college, and over 25 years as a professional saxophone player. He saw Sven Vath perform in Irvine, California at age 20, and as a young lad passed out flyer for a bi-weekly promotion called Nectar in LA, and was hooked on electronic music ever since. At Renaissance, being right in the middle of the mind-blowing music and world's most talented and inspiring DJs like Sasha, Hernan Cattaneo, Dave Seaman, Digweed, Zabiela, Fanciulli, and man-behind-the-scenes Marcus James at the height of the Renaissance scene was a great privilege and made an indelible impression, and influenced his style towards the progressive, groovy techno vibe.

Over the last few years, Sirsax’s DJ performances have brought him to Bali, Los Angeles, Positano, Koh Samui, the south of France, Ibiza, and London. He’s been a resident at Tri3es in London since 2016. Impeccable melodic, edgy, beautiful and groundbreaking sounds, with a relentless devotion to real musicality, plus an ability to fucking rock the house are his signatures.

Just another hack DJ that loves to dance.

Step into the electrifying realm of Martin Wright, where the beat isn't just heard, it's felt deep in your bones. Hailing from the gritty streets of Birmingham, Martin's journey from vinyl junkie to global sensation is a testament to his raw talent and unrelenting passion for music. 

At the age of 21, he took the plunge into the neon-lit chaos of Hong Kong, teaming up with the legendary Lee Burridge to set the city's dance floors ablaze. Spotted by the keen eyes of Innova DJ Agency, Martin found himself commanding the decks in the glitzy clubs of Singapore and Indonesia for two years, pushing boundaries and defying expectations with every DJ set. 

Returning to his roots with a vengeance, Martin unleashed his signature blend of vocal house upon the UK club scene. From the underground haunts of Stoodi Bakers to the legendary Miss Moneypenny's, and the infamous Gatecrasher, he emerged as a true hero of house. But Martin's journey was far from over. Sharing stages with titans like David Guetta, Pete Tong, Mark Knight, and Calvin Harris, he carved out his place among the elite, earning the respect of his peers and the adoration of his fans. 

In 1996, the maestro behind Hed Kandi, Mark Doyle, handpicked Martin to join the ranks of his revolutionary brand, Fierce Angel. From the sun-kissed shores of Ibiza to the Florida Keys of Miami, Martin brought the Fierce Angel sound to every corner of the globe, leaving a trail of awe-inspired dancers in his wake. 

Yet, it's in the seclusion of his studio sanctuary where Martin's true genius shines. Now, nestled in the sun-drenched embrace of the South of France, Martin is cooking up his next musical chapter. With a focus on Afro House and Nu-Disco, his upcoming releases promise to push boundaries and offer a fresh take on dance music. 

When he's not conjuring magic in the studio, you'll find Martin igniting VIP parties in Cannes or rubbing elbows with the elite at high-end brand launches. From commanding the top deck of a yacht during the F1 Grand Prix in Monaco to reigning supreme from a hotel rooftop terrace overlooking the French Riviera, Martin's presence is as undeniable as it is unforgettable. Whether he's setting the scene in Cannes, Nice, Monaco, or Saint Tropez, his energy electrifies every corner of the room.

Join him on the dance floor, where the energy is contagious, the beats are infectious, and the spirit of his music comes alive. Martin Wright: Vive la musique!
