Started in October 2006 by Steve Lawler, VIVa Music began life as a conduit for the internationally renowned DJ and Producer to release the wealth of underground music he encountered on his travels. Now, just a few years later VIVa is a self-contained hotbed for new talent which draws attention from DJs, punters and producers alike. Having previously handled the now-classic and traditional vinyl label Harlem Records, Lawler decided VIVa was to be a forward thinking outlet for quality music and boldly announced that VIVa was to be digital only. As well as a clear mission to look towards the future of the music industry, this was a step to ensure that music could be released quickly and retain the freshness that the labels A&R was struck by. Far from the template set out by many of Lawler's contemporaries, VIVa quickly established itself as a label where artists could be themselves and write music that isn't defined by just A&R, but by one simple guideline: Quality. This has meant the label has gone on to release music from a wide range artists, from major players like Lawler and Audiofly through to burgeoning talent like Livio & Roby and Nicole Moudaber. In keeping with an ever evolving outlook, 2009 will see VIVa further transformed. Worldwide tour nights, Festival Arena, International Residency's and a new UK based residency at the legendary Ministry of Sound in London are just the tip of the iceberg. Always ones to buck trends, the VIVa family are pressing vinyl again alongside it's digital output as well as expanding its roster of relatively unknown talent rather than rely on the tried and tested. At the forefront of this exclusive roster of talent are the likes of Vrajitoroo, David Pher, Dragosh, Adroid Cartel, Jimmy Hill, Alex Tepper, TRNNSTR, Darius Syrossian & NYRA, Erphun and Sean Miller but VIVa will continue to work with what it considers extended family for both releases as well as remixes; which means the likes of Jamie Jones, Audiofly, Simon Baker, Tiefschwarz, Bearweasel, David Durango and many, many more. VIVa is an important part of my life now, building a family of artists, that I take great pleasure in building and pushing. The amount of amazing music coming from new talent is phenomenal and its birth and direction are very exciting. - Steve Lawler Viva VIVa, 2010

You know Dirtybird for dropping basslines and creating smiles on the dance floor since January 2005.

The fun family vibe of the Dirtybird label can be traced back to a free event started in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. This new kind of house music went against the smooth vocal house that was popular at the time and derived its influences mostly from hip-hop, drum n bass, and American funk. The free outdoor BBQ party was very rough around the edges but eventually became legendary amongst the people of San Francisco. This event was also a very influential factor in the decision by Claude VonStroke to start the record label in 2005.

Today, Dirtybird has offices in San Francisco and Los Angeles and has expanded into events and tour production. As it grows, the brand continues to expand beyond music into merchandise, licensing and artist management. In 2015, Dirtybird launched the inaugural Dirtybird Campout festival, which has been dubbed “Summer Camp For Adults”, and Dirtybird has been recognized from their achievements by being awarded "Underground Label of the Year" at the International Dance Music Awards, “Label of the Decade” by Mixmag, “Best North American Label” by DJ Mag, and Billboard’s "Top 5 Independent Dance Labels".

Claude VonStroke spent over 20 years shaping underground dance music and building a community. After selling the Dirtybird brand and taking a 2 year hiatus, he’s back with a new mindset - playing only where he wants, for those who love the originality of his unique style.

His new "Life of Leisure" rebrand is not a status flex; it’s a vacation on the dance-floor.The ravers are the heroes; Claude is just the guide. Leave your villains at the door—fear, anxiety, and stress have no place in
VonStroke’s vibe. Only music, movement, and energy matter. Every show is intentional, every moment sacred.

Claude VonStroke is finally doing more of what he loves and dumping all that stuff that sucks. Shedding his stressed-out, overachiever role for a more reflective and grateful approach. "Life of Leisure" is a victory lap, but we all know it’s not so easy to forget reality. Join him, even if it’s just for a few hours in the club on a Saturday night.

Filipino American DJ and Producer, Dillon Nathaniel is the consummate house music connoisseur, a true technician, and a passionate dance music champion. Coded into his musical DNA are the history of house music and the memories of bygone dancefloors. Memories passed on from his Filipino family, who hoped to impress upon him the enchanting magic of dance music. His thick sweltering basslines and slippery hypnotic grooves have made him a favorite of lauded dance floor greats like Solardo, Chris Lake, Lee Foss, John Summit (co-collaborator on Esa Boca), Green Velvet, Fisher, Mau P and MK. The iconic MK personally tagged Nathaniel to join him on tour twice and has become a trusted collaborator in the studio.
Even his early releases on Confession and Night Bass carried a refinement that only comes with years of experience. His ability to work multiple subgenres flawlessly, Dillon Nathaniel's versatile productions have made him a regular on Sola, Repopulate Mars, Solotoko, Big Beat, Incorrect, Sweat It Out, Nervous, Techne, Insomniac, and now his artist focussed label, Obsessions.
The former audio engineer and gear junkie found his footing in music early as a vocalist and guitar player. And while he tried to avoid house music, the draw of the dancefloor was too great. A crash course in DJing and mashups on equipment tossed aside by his father sparked his interest. But his family taking him to his first EDC at 16 was the true catalyst. The transformational moment provided the ultimate inspiration to pursue a career in dance music.
He's just as much of a technician on stage as he is behind the boards, and that trademark command of the groove has led him to bless the stages of CRSSD, Lollapolooza, Global Dance, Splash House, Coachella, Ultra Music Festival and of course, taking him full circle to EDC Vegas, with his family standing beside him.
