Simon James and Adam Helal, the dynamic duo behind the electronic group Rolasoul, have each carved out illustrious careers in the music industry, blending their talents to create a unique sound that resonates with audiences worldwide. Simon’s rise to fame was propelled by his victory in Mix-Mag’s elite DJ Competition, earning him the coveted title of 'Mix-Mag DJ of the Year.' This accolade set the stage for his electrifying performances, including a mind-blowing set at Hard Times that left a lasting impression on the event's founder, Stephen Raine, who remarked, "I knew in five minutes, you could tell." This moment solidified Simon's status as a mainstay at Hard Times, where he shared the stage with luminaries like Todd Terry and Roger Sanchez.

Simon's musical journey has seen him play at legendary venues such as the Hacienda, Cream, Ministry of Sound and Renaissance, alongside renowned DJs like John Digweed and Pete Tong. His versatility in music spans deep, tribal house to progressive and melodic techno, with Ben Turner from Muzik stating, "his sets would rock any club, anywhere in the world." Over the years, Simon has toured internationally, captivating audiences in Ibiza, New York, and Australia, further establishing himself as a global DJ powerhouse.

On the other hand, Adam Helal has a rich musical background that began with a remix of "You Got the Love" by Candi Staton for Truelove Records. He quickly made his mark in the house and garage scenes with tracks released under Go Beat and became a sought-after collaborator for various artists under the Fantazia label. Notably, Adam was also the bassist for the iconic post-punk band The Fall, contributing to albums like The Marshall Suite and The Unutterable. His track "Touch Sensitive" even found its way onto a Vauxhall Corsa advertisement, showcasing his diverse talents. Adam has also worked with Sam Smith on early releases, further demonstrating his versatility as a musician and producer.

Today, Simon and Adam combine their talents at their studio headquarters in Tileyard, London, where they produce new music as Rolasoul. Their intuitive and infectious vibe reflects a deep connection that drives their mission to push musical boundaries. With extensive touring experience and a commitment to creativity, the duo continues to captivate audiences and elevate the electronic music scene, paving the way for future collaborations and innovations in their artistry.

THERE ARE LOADS OF NEWLY REMASTERED MIXES THERE

Now an established force in contemporary Techno, Mike Bierbach, better known under his stage name Rødhåd is someone who has seriously put in the work. Having cut his teeth DJing as a relatively unnoted (but well loved by those in the know) local in Berlin for 10 years, one could argue that by the time success knocked on his door, he was more than ready for playing the international stage. It was during these 10 years of obscurity when he refined his craft to become the singular DJ he is now. 

Launching his party-series-turned-label Dystopian in 2009 was what truly tipped the ball over for Rødhåd. In a time where the Berlin scene was heavily oversaturated by fluffy, miscellaneous dance music, he & his peers set out to form a platform for real techno. The reception to this was raucous. 

Although he has lauded productions and remixes to his name, DJing is his true forte. Before abandoning his day job as a draftsman in construction “The Red” (as some call him due to his gingered, bearded appearance) was known for playing very long sets in Berlin’s most notorious hideaways. 

With an album, several EPs & remixes for a multitude of different artists under his belt, Rødhåd the producer has received equal praise as Rødhåd the DJ. Dystopian has hosted most of his releases, but in 2018 he founded a new label WSNWG that serves as a home for collaborative productions, excavated in sessions at his East-Berlin studio with his peers such as Lucy, Alex.Do, & Antigone.
