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".

Starting his DJ career aged 12 around his home town of Johannesburg, nowadays 26 Keva is better known for producing his own tracks, leaving his mark on all dance floors he's put in front of. Keva has shown he is as good a DJ as is he a producer in his own right, still working closely with Mark Stent (who introduced Keva to the world, releasing a 5 track EP of which 4 made the top 100). Shortly after his debut release, Keva landed on the "BEST OF FLEXUAL COMPILATION" . He then went on to be picked by "Quentin Harris" as one of the top 10 remixes of "Paradise"in the bpm remix competition, attracting the interest of SoulCandi and a article about him on HouseOnMag, but wait theres more Keva's tracks have been featured in many top international and local DJ's mix-tapes including Nick Hannam, Roby Howler, Carbon Parlour, Hannah Wants, Peter Booth, Mark Stent, The Bulgarian, Tom Garnett, Royal K, Geoff K, Jamie Shaw, James Oliver, Warren Paul and more…  Recently released on the best of Lepento Records vol.1 & vol.2 ’, he’s also about to release a 3 track EP on "Bone Idle Records" He has been hiding underground for to long now, going unnoticed within his home country. South Africa you've let so many talented artists slip through your fingers and with his talent ,its only a matter of time before he's lost as well.

Soul Candi started out as a record shop in vinyl DJing’s heyday, and it was where like-minded DJs from across the country would converge to hear and buy the latest, tastiest house tracks. The store became a focal point for house proponents of the caliber of DJ Fresh, Oskido, Euphonik and many more. But despite the presence of these big personalities, everyone was welcome, and the beats were a treat. As house music became THE sound of South Africa, the business grew and Soul Candi started making the most popular tunes available to everybody via their range of cool compilation CDs. Now the nation could own what the best DJs were playing on the airwaves and in the clubs. Now Soul Candi has a new mission statement: it’s been re-coded as an all-encompassing media house – which ironically takes the company back to its roots: sharing the best house music the world has to offer.

The head behind DubNoir Music has been contemplating whether to start a label over the last few years just releasing and pushing music he believe's in including his own productions. With the label owner now having more time on his hands and a vast amount of experience within the music industry, it was only natural for him to create a brand which will allow him to make music which he want's to, aswell as give artists the chance to express themselves on the label with a no rules ethos as far as musical boundaries go.

Two years have passed and the support for the label has been immense. The label has had big commercial support from the likes of Annie Mac (Radio One) & Kissy Sell Out (Radio One) to the more underground heads, with artists such as Justin Martin, Jesse Rose, Hannah Holland, Round Table Knights, Jamie Anderson, Idiotproof, Catz N Dogz, Slam, Dj Zinc, HiJack, Bass Kleph, Oliver $, Sinden, Worthy, Rennaisance Man, Laidback Luke, Malente, Solo, Lee Mortimer, Pezzner, Riva Starr & Many More playing, charting and digging the music.

The aim of DubNoir is to bring the freshest house music to the public. Whether its tech house, nu-disco/ indie, deep house, it doesn't matter as long as its got something about it that will make the dance floor appreciate it. 

The label will purvey forward thinking music and will always choose quality over quantity whatever the musical climate kicks up throughout the forthcoming years.

A contemporary UK electronic music institution, Eats Everything (AKA Daniel Pearce) has a global reputation built on versatility, superlative skills and a positive outlook - core fundamentals that have made him one of the most in-demand artists around. With his roots firmly embedded in the vibrant, influential music culture of his hometown, Bristol, Eats Everything channels his broad musical palette into every aspect of his output. In 2021 the globetrotting DJ, accomplished producer, prolific remixer, label owner, radio host and mastermind behind a collection of popular party brands will celebrate 10 years of his now infamous pseudonym.

Evan Staley believes that music should be an expression of one’s self, and that it should be expressed from the heart, soul, and mind of the DJ/Producer, and should be portrayed in the best way possible by that artist…

A true force in electronic music, the Kool FM resident has spent over two decades pushing boundaries across genres, and he’s just signed a major 2025 album deal with London Records.

Known for blending House, Techno, and Jungle influences - balancing underground credibility with broad appeal - Shadow Child has left his mark on both club culture and the mainstream. A former BBC Radio 1 and Rinse FM resident, his impact stretches far beyond the DJ booth. He’s played a key role in major hits, including the UK number one KDA’s ‘Rumble’, while also delivering cutting-edge releases on Shall Not Fade, Hot Creations, E-beamz, R&S, and Unknown to the Unknown.

With heavyweight support from Peggy Gou, Bonobo, Gerd Jansen and Carl Cox, 2025 is shaping up to be huge. His Jungle and Breakbeat-Rave inspired album drops late in the year, and we can’t wait for what’s next.
