Blending together European electronics with the sounds of the Middle East and beyond, Gal Kadan's music is a representation of his homeland - a consistent tension between future and past, love and war, east and west. His latest project, "Awesome Orientalists From Europa", is dedicated to re-issuing overlooked Electro and Disco dance floor tracks that sound Oriental, but were actually made by Westerners. By remixing and editing these obscure, unknown gems Gal is using his music to question politics, identities and borders in today’s European world of constant migration and round the clock partying.

Residing in Berlin since 2018, Gal has toured Europe extensively playing gigs in top venues across the continent and sharing the DJ booth with the likes of Acid Arab, Carrot Green and Zozo as well as releasing edits on Hard Fist records and Jonny Rock's Hamam House imprint.

His labels MOOD FUNK RECORDS & MONOSIDE have been a consistent source of some of the best house music in the scene, with releases from the likes of David Penn, DJ Mes, Kevin McKay, Sebb Junior, Art Of Tones, Robbie Rivera, Moon Rocket, Peter Brown, Hatiras, Johnick, to name but a few.

It's his own personal output that remains so impressive over the year, with a steady stream of hits being fired out not only though his own label, but some of the biggest imprints in the industry.

The most recents top ones tracks like 'Smile Like That' on Mood Funk Records, 'Disko Dancing' on MONOSIDE, 'The House Shh Remix' on Paharas Musica, 'Ask Yourself (Can You Dance)' on Soulfuric Trax, 'Sax Damage In NYC' on MONOSIDE, 'THE DJ MANIFESTO" on Mood Funk...
Angelo has shared the love across the whole House scene.

He has that innate ability to create tracks where you instantly know who's at the controls from the first beat.

You'd be hard pushed to find a more prolific and hardworking producer in the house music scene at the moment.

He was a Guest DJ in United States, Australia, Croatia, Holland, Ukraine, Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, Indonesia, Germany, Bulgaria, Swiss, Austria, Czech Republic, Italy, Africa, Spain, Malta, Montenegro, Serbia, Slovenia..

Angelo Ferreri was born in Sicily in 1984.

As a producer, he has been active since 2004 under the nickname of 'Alkaline' and 'Angelo Elettronico', with productions that are always part of his growth as a musician.

In 2010 he immediately started to attract the attention of several others labels with a different kind of music, it was then, that the name of 'Angelo Ferreri' started to be well known all over the world.

Now he has established his exciting Funky-Tech-House style with successful countless releases on Nervous, Soulfuric, Mood Funk Records, Glasgow Underground..

Take a look at this guy...

One of Germany’s leading house music lights, Boris Dlugosch’s chameleon-like approach has helped him to amass an incredibly enviable catalogue of grooves that continues to grow every year.

Releasing on illustrious labels like Gerd Janson's RUNNING BACK,  Classic Music, Defected, Suara, Toolroom Records and Poker Flat Recordings in recent times, Dlugosch’s chunky basslines, crisp percussion and earworm melodies have found their way to all corners of the house music scene. His successful working relationship with Purple Disco Machine yielded L.O.V.E. and Set It Out, which both hit the #1 spot on Traxsource and the Top 5 on Beatport, as did Peppermint Jam’s 20th anniversary remix package of his classic Keep Pushin’.

Keep Pushin’ was the track that broke him through onto the global house scene in the mid-’90s in a big way. Germany wasn’t exactly a hotbed of house music talent at the time—making him somewhat of a rarity—and it soon became clear with further anthems like Hold Your Head Up High that he was a producer with a serious sense of musicality as well as dancefloor prowess. After this series of club smashes, the big-name remixes started to roll in: Aaliyah, Mary J Blige, Adeva, Randy Crawford… and then came that remix for Moloko’s Sing It Back, a huge crossover track that became the official radio version and hit #4 in the UK Singles Chart. Next came reworks for Daft Punk, Basement Jaxx, Jamiroquai, Mariah Carey, Moby…

Eventually growing wearisome of the declining funky house / garage sounds of the era, Dlugosch discovered a new-found love for the French electro scene in the mid-noughties, releasing Bangkok on Erol Alkan’s Phantasy Sound imprint and Cycle on Lektroluv Records (complete with a remix from Etienne De Crecy), with the likes of 2manydjs, Boys Noize and Laurent Garnier all throwing their weight behind his updated sound.

After the electro scene became saturated and the times progressed once again, he metamorphosed into the producer we know him as today, taking a modern approach to classic house music that draws on multiple influences. “I constantly check for new tracks and absorb what’s out there” he says of his hunger for new sounds and styles. “We all change constantly!” he adds of his—and indeed others’—evolution over the years. “I don’t want anyone to pigeonhole me”. And nor should they. When you have as much musical talent as Dlugosch, it’s criminal to keep making the same sounds over and over again.

A Boiler Room Berlin set in 2013 introduced him to a new generation of house music lovers, and his regular In The Mix uploads on SoundCloud give a good idea of what can be heard in his rocking club and festival sets. Upfront house meets garagey classics and disco cut-ups, dashes of electro, acid and deep melodic moments to give a well-rounded selection that perfectly marries house music’s past, present and future. 

He is also an erstwhile label owner, having set up Golden City Sounds in 2013 with Digitalism’s Isi and HEY TODAY!’s Raik Fargo—but the imprint is currently dormant. He’s eyeing up the possibilities of launching a new label, but only when it feels right and makes sense on a creative level. We live in hope.

A true legend who continues delivering the goods today, Boris Dlugosch is one of house music’s real treasures.

Flemming Dalum, also know as King of the cut, discovered his musical journey at an early age. An interest based out of curiosity for electronic synthesizer legends emerging while he grew up. With his first synth, the Korg Polysix, a lifelong passion was born. He started playing in bands in 1982, experimenting with electronics and the new world of sounds and possibilities. At the same time he started experimenting with records and discovered a natural talent for mixing and blending synths with records, creating his own unique world of sound. In mind that the CD wasn't invented, neither was the HD recorder, the heart in Flemmings set-up was a simple cassette recorder. An invention that should soon add yet another angle to his musical universe. With snappy skills and imagination, the cassette soon became his most important instrument taking him to the next level. The world of mixing. With sampler, echomachine, decks, synths and a beloved cassette recorder, the first true mixes came out of his studio already in 1983. Mixes with so much detail, soon giving him the legendary name "King of the cut". In the same year, 1983, Flemming stumbled across Koto "Chinese Revenge", a discovery that should soon lead Flemming into a brave new world matching his own, with synths and electronics being the heart of the music. The passion became strong and shortly after the Koto discovery, brought him to his first trip to Milan, Il Discotto, Discomagic, Non-Stop, Merak etc. to investigate the Italo phenomenon in detail. The following years Flemming visited the Italian distributors 11 times which later proves to be one of the major reasons to the fact that he has one of the worlds most complete collections of Italo and Disco. Through the years, the synths has been replaced with computers and equipment matching the urge for mixing. Something that has kept the true Italo spirit alive and made Flemming Dalum a legend in mixing today.
