The UK's Patrick Topping is one of the most in demand DJs in the world. 2024 marks his second year as resident at the legendary Ibiza club Hï, voted the “Number 1 Club in the World” by DJ Mag the last three years in a row. From humble beginnings, his first-ever DJ set was in a Working Men's club in Newcastle in 2009, followed by years promoting events, DJing locally and studying music production. This led to his breakthrough moment in 2013 with a release on Jamie Jones' Hot Creations label. 

Since then, he has been constantly touring the world for the last eleven years, playing huge festivals such as Tomorrowland, Glastonbury, Coachella, EDC Vegas, Awakenings and Ultra and so many influential clubs along the way. 2022 saw him win “Best British DJ” at DJ Mag’s Best of British Awards. This added another award to his list of accolades, which include “Tech House DJ of the Year” in 2018, “Track of the Season” for “Forget” in 2014, “Best Newcomer DJ” in 2014, all the DJ Awards in Ibiza, plus DJ Mag’s Best Of British Award “Tune Of the Year” for “Forget” in 2014.

As a recording artist, Patrick has now released over 80 original tracks or remixes, with “Be Sharp Say Nowt” (2017) going on to become certified silver in the UK in 2021. Known for pioneering new sounds within house, techno and British dance music, he is one of the most versatile tastemaker DJs and producers in electronic music. His music is grounded in Chicago house and Detroit techno but always looking to innovate. Patrick has worked with some of the pioneers of these genres. This includes collaborations with Chicago’s Green Velvet, such as their 2014 smash “Voicemail”, and another collaboration which is on the way in 2024. He has also completed remix swaps with another Chicago legend, the late Paul Johnson. Then “Frisk” with Detroit legend Kevin Saunderson, which was part of the official soundtrack to the 2022 film “The Batman”. Moving in different circles, he remixed high-profile pop artists including The Streets, Sam Fender, Robyn and Calvin Harris.

His ascension up the international DJ ranks has been matched only by his shrewdness and ability to spot talent and champion emerging artists. In 2019, he launched his influential record label and event series Trick, which has grown to become one of the most popular underground dance music event brands and record labels. Trick serves as a platform for emerging talent, curated by Patrick himself, giving an outlet to many new signings who have since become some of the biggest ticket-sellers in the UK, such as Ewan McVicar, Ben Hemsley and Hannah Laing.

Trick's loyal fanbase has become one of the most passionate communities in dance music, with fans sporting Trick's signature lightning bolt on merchandise and tattoos at events throughout the UK and beyond. From completing a 9-date residency in 2022 at Ibiza's legendary DC10, to hosting a stage at EDC Orlando 2022, to attracting 10,000 ravers to The Warehouse Project in Manchester and bringing thousands to an Australian Debut in Melbourne in 2023. Then there is the Trick Weekenders, Budapest in 2022 and Tenerife in 2023. These events both saw 2,500 Trick Troops holiday and party together abroad, with Trick Tenerife this year set to double in size.

In 2024 Patrick is set to give back to his roots, bringing legions of fans to his hometown of Newcastle this summer 2024 with the launch of Trick Fest. Trick will also return to Ibiza, hosting a four-date residency in Hï’s Theatre on Wednesdays, whilst Patrick resumes his residency in Hï’s Club Room for twelve Mondays. 

With Trick soon reaching one hundred releases, Patrick is entering a new level of artistry, after producing and engineering all his own music himself for the first 10 years of his career, he is now more collaborative and is now sitting on more music than ever before. 

With an exciting release schedule coming up, he is still driven by the same pure, concentrated energy that inspired him as a raver. Patrick is relishing the opportunity to live out his dreams while also keeping his feet firmly on the ground. A hard working, humble and visionary artist, he is bound to continue making an invaluable contribution to club culture; whether he’s on the decks, in the studio or through the new generation of young acts he’s bringing up with him…

In today's burgeoning culture of opportunism and ambition, you seldom meet an individual with exceptional abilities and a lengthy history of achievement without it being worn on their sleeve. GE-OLOGY’s sets reflect his diverse taste in music perfectly. Unfiltered mixes filled with records ranging from experimental Jazz, Gospel, Disco, Funk, House, Techno and Hip-Hop, GE-OLOGY does is all with ease. There is no single tread to be found in his sets, other than him taking risks and mixing in curveballs that light up the dance floor. On top of his sublime track selection, the skills of the Baltimore DJ are unparalleled and admired by everybody’s favorite DJs. Thus, the enigmatic virtuoso known as GE-OLOGY is a rare find indeed.

GE-OLOGY's ties with music were close from the start. After learning how to play the trumpet and starting collecting records at age 5, 6 years later GE-OLOGY’s interest in DJing and passion for music started rising to the heights he still beholds today. His interest in Hip-Hop brought him together with Tupac, Talib Kweli and Mos Def and later the Baltimore born, 80's New York City bred Renaissance man took the opportunity to produce for Jill Scott, De La Soul, Yukimi Nagano and Vinia Mojica and Jem. Yet, surprising to most, his dance floor oriented music dates back to the same time.

This masterful music producer, skilled DJ, and equally gifted visual artist has been acclaimed internationally for over two decades, however he remains somewhat of a mystery, letting his music and his mixes speak for themselves. To GE-OLOGY, music is something spiritual which reaches his soul and is inseparable from his being. This ethos is clearly emulated in his music, always digging deeper and weaving diverse music genres that coalesce to inspire soulful movement on the dance floor.

bio:
Ewan McVicar is doing things differently. He’s not following any existing blueprints, nor is he adding a filter to what you see. As a result, DJ Mag’s recently crowned Best British DJ is taking the electronic scene by storm. If you combine the spirit and ethos of the rave generation with a forward-thinking approach to music, vivacious energy and drive to push things in the right direction, you end up with McVicar. 

While his journey may have started in Ayr, Ewan McVicar’s path has shown he doesn't intend to rest until he's left his mark in every corner of the globe. That formative period in his humble Scottish hometown is the bedrock for his success today and after years of honing his craft across hip hop and commercial-leaning sounds in clubs that didn't quite fit his direction, he launched his own enterprise. TEN, the club night that started it all, was the introduction to underground music that he and his town so desperately needed. 

It wasn't just McVicar's hunger for something with a bit more bite that was satisfied once TEN was established, it was a huge success within the town and beyond. A new movement had picked up steam.

His unwavering dedication to pushing a sound that’s intrinsically his own had paid off and after a string of releases via Trick, 'Tell Me Something Good' became a runaway success, all over the planet. The platinum-selling single catapulted Ewan into the public eye and since then, he's not left it, not even for a second. His trajectory has been skyward but crucially, it's been on his terms. 

Musically he's made sure that he's stood firm on his commitment to the underground with releases via Heras Records, Optimo Music, Unknown To The Unknown, Shall Not Fade, Nervous and perhaps most notably Ninja Tune's singles imprint Technicolour, where 'Heather Park' found its home. The track acted as a platform for Ewan to recognise and celebrate his origins while facing forward with his sound. With that, the ode to his former home is one of his most beloved productions to date.

Remixes for The Chemical Brothers, Groove Armada and Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs further cement his demand as a technically proficient producer and one that can create music for the main stage as well as sweat-soaked basements. Throw singles like 'Groove Thang' into the mix, alongside hyped collaborations with producers like Kettama, and what you have is an artist who's able to straddle both sides of the fence with ease, a rare feat in today's publishing landscape. 

Ewan's popularity as a selector and performer is arguably the strongest part of his arsenal and with one of the most engaged and active fanbases in the world, his sell-out shows prove to be one of the biggest draws in dance music. 

His sets at Creamfields in the Steelyard have become the stuff of legend, and they showcase his technical ability and prowess performing to crowds upwards of 30,000. His curated club brand 'Handpicked' is a no nonsense night that gives the truest insight into the brain of the clued-up Scotsman and he's welcomed acts like Kerri Chandler, Optimo, Stevie Cox and frequent b2b partner Special Request to play, perfectly surmising his musical tastes.  

Taking curation one step further, 2023 saw the inaugural edition of his beloved Pavilion Festival, Ewan's own festival located in the heart of Ayr on the Low Green, a location that he unsurprisingly holds dearly, in a community that he's now able to lovingly give back.

There are a whole host of new musical projects in the works and most importantly, an album is coming. One that he's been working on tirelessly in the background of his relentless gig schedule and release calendar, one that's set to tell the story of how an ambitious boy from Ayr decided to take over the world and how he's only just getting started.
