Kevin aka Phaxe has gone from a no-name to an international player of the Progressive Trance elite within no time. Dropping his artist name Phaxe in 2007 provokes few, if any, reactions. Only 4 years later he has become a synonym for upper-league party music. Highly acclaimed live sets all around the world, applauded releases, and remixes for some of the scene’s biggest names tell an impressing success story. A story that makes the man from Copenhagen repeatedly being described as a “Progressive Prodigy”.

Looking back, the evolution of Phaxe`s sound is the history of a perfect storm brewing. It starts with excessive party weekends in the late 90s, awakening his interest in electronic music production. First creative steps are taken in front of a Nintendo gaming console. Eventually this new passion leads to a professional audio engineer training in 2006. These 3 stages of Phaxe’s career are still very noticeable today: His music is to-the-floor, playful, and high-quality in terms of sound.

This irresistible mixture is first to be heard in 2007 when a Phaxe track is released on IONO Music. One year later things take off: The title “Swing King” gains euphoric feedback from both party freaks and DJs worldwide. Within no time Phaxe is producing together with artists like Audiomatic, Morten Granau, Vice, Zyce, Flegma and many others. Great compliments are given to him when the still young producer is asked to remix some of his early Progressive Trance idols like Haldolium, Atmos and Symphonix. His long awaited debut album is signed on the prestigious label Iboga.

In addition to his solo activities, Phaxe keeps up a creative dialogue with some other producers - resulting in a great variety of sound and styles. Together with Morten Granau he is known as High & Mighty, delivering deep Progressive House. The name Sinister Silence stands for a mutual project with Dan Hessner and uplifting Progressive Trance. Last but not least there is O.T.B., a collaboration with Martin Daltoft of Vice.

Despite his impressive success story Phaxe always keeps a humorous and friendly attitude which is very noticeable when seeing him on stage. In this very situation his unbroken passion for Progressive Trance rubs off on the audience through vibrant sound waves.

DJ Sméagol is a Swiss DJ. In 1998 he experienced his first Psy Trance Party. From then on he was infected by it. So his crew Magic Warriors and he started to organize freaky goa parties in Switzerland from 2000-2008, which were legendary in the scene at that time.
In 2008 he started his own DJ career. His portfolio mainly includes "Morning Psy", "Night Psy", "Full On" and "Psyprog". He understands the playing as telling a story. Soon he was booked for many goa events all over Switzerland. When a few years later he was allowed to play for bigger events like Reisefieber 2014/15, Summer Never Ends Festival 2017 and Drachenstampf Festival 2018 in Switzerland he was very happy. A huge highlight of his career was certainly Zorba the Buddha Festival 2018 in Israel, where he drove the crowd crazy with his sounds. Dj Sméagol travels a lot and always has music in his luggage. No big deal for him to spontaneously adapt his repertoire of tracks to the guests and bring the dancefloor to boil. He takes out some Electro, Techno, Techhouse, Off Beat, Progressive and Psyprog and the party starts. In recent years he has also played in Thailand (Ban Sabaii), Indonesia Gili Air (Lucky Bar), Colombia (Alunafest), Panama (Ke Lo Kenji Tribe), Costa Rica, Guatemala City (The Box/Metro Lounge). 
Very pleased to perform this extraordinary talent here at the Artistrooster, from now on also booking Love&Light Bookings locally and internationally!!
