Sidney Charles - Gone (Original Mix) |MOON HARBOUR|

Check out our new website https://www.localsiren.com

Sidney Charles has mastered the art of high impact house music that comes with a signature sense of depth, melody and groove. That unique style has made the Hamburg-born DJ, producer and label boss one of the underground's most prominent names: last year was his busiest ever with multiple chart-topping releases, high profile support from Radio 1 and standout gigs across the world. In 2023, the proven tastemaker will focus on his already influential Heavy House Society label and launch its new residency at Watergate in Berlin.
The last year has seen Sidney make an indelible mark on the scene. He played in Ibiza at the likes of Amnesia, DC10 and Cova Santa. He played to large crowds across several South American countries and all over the US from Miami to Las Vegas to New York and LA. He played in key Spanish cities at Input, Fabrik Madrid, Weekend Beach Festival, frequently visited Italy, played in the Netherlands multiple times a month and cemented his close relationship at UK hotbeds like Manchester's Warehouse Project and Leeds' Mint Warehouse.
Whether playing to a close and compact crowd in a small basement or tearing up a vast festival main stage, Sidney knows how to join the dots between the past and the present. He manages to open up new house worlds with his educated selections but never forgets to blow up the dance floor in the process. Just like his productions, his DJ sets are full of surprises, twists and turns but also rooted in physical grooves. His love of jazz, hip hop and funk and his vast knowledge of the 90s sounds always shine through with plenty of heavy bass which makes the Sidney Sound so irresistible.
Years after his first breakout hit, Sidney continues to hit the top of the charts with his newest creations. In 2022 there were three separate number ones on three different labels in Beatport's genre charts. They came on his own label, Eastenderz and Hot Creations, while he has also signed to the likes of No Art, Locus, PIV and Do Not Sleep amongst many more.
Sidney's Heavy House Society is already a respected go-to outlet for solid and innovative house music. It mixes up releases from top-tier artists and well curated new school talents such as Kolter (aka Djoko), Luuk Van Dijk, Locklead, Madvilla, Luca Donzelli, M-High and many more. As well as a collab EP with Kolter in 2023, Sidney will also head up the label nights, Heavy House Society, under the famous LED ceiling of Berlin's cult club Watergate. He has solo EPs in the works for the label as well as Cécille Records, MicroHertz and PIV; and will get in the studio with East End Dubs. All this is proof that Sidney Charles is at the top of his game.

BIO:
Christian's artistic journey began very early when he started listening to Disco, Funk, Hip Hop, and Break Dance tracks from his father's private collection.

The early sounds of Black Music, featuring artists like Chic, Kool & The Gang, Delegation, as well as 2Pac, DJ Premier, J Dilla, and Grandmaster Flash, enriched his listening experience from a young age.

During his teenage years, he discovered the world of clubbing, which quickly shifted his focus towards the underground scene.

This environment led him to develop a passion for Deep House, Soulful, and Classic House sounds, inspired by American artists such as Karizma, Frankie Feliciano, Louie Vega, and Kenny Dope (MAW).

His admiration for these genres motivated him to start DJing live in local lounge bars in his hometown of Prato, where he showcased House, Deep, and Minimal music.

This experimentation led to a more personal and introspective approach to House and Deep House, culminating in his first release on Dancera Records.

In 2016, thanks to his early performances and continuous exploration of music and club culture, he began to lay the foundations for his personal Tech House project.

Through collaborations with local collectives, he had the chance to perform "warm-up sets" for artists such as Ruben Mandolini and Shitake (Happy Techno), solidifying his reputation as a well-known DJ in his hometown.

He started to focus more and more on the production side, studying piano and producing tracks that reflected his evolving taste, leaning towards Minimal Tech House, Dub, and introspective sounds. This new direction was showcased in Florence at the historic Club21 during prominent events like Materya and Groovy.

In 2024, thanks to his releases on Music Key Ibiza and Paranoia Music (MEX), he caught the attention of an emerging collective from Milan called “RAW Collective”.

Following collaborations in Florence, they made their debut in the summer at Lola's Club in the city center of Ibiza.

Later, he started to receive support from big artists such as Joseph Capriati, Riva Starr, Cristina Lazic, Sosa (UK), Marco Strous, Niteplan, Rowen Klark, David Aurel, and Ruben Mandolini.

Currently, he is a prominent name among the new talents in established Italian underground scenes like Tenax Club, delivering sets that push increasingly dark and introspective sounds.
