Welshy real name Ross Walsh is an Irish DJ/Music Producer hailing from a small rural village just outside Kilkenny city. Welshy first established a reputation as a rising talent in 2016, propelled by a string of viral remixes and bootlegs that attracted attention from music heavyweights such as Kygo and The Chainsmokers. From the years 2016 - 2020 Welshy toured his homeland of Ireland extensively playing sell out headline shows in all 32 counties of Ireland as well as International shows in the UK and Europe. This cemented Welshy as a household name in Ireland.

2020 was the year Welshy evolved and started to show what the hype is really about after enjoying a phenomenal reaction to his breakthrough track ‘Haiti’ (15 million streams, huge radio and streaming support, and certified PLATINUM in Ireland), Welshy’s follow-up ‘All For You’ picked up where Haiti left off seeing it top playlists like Massive Dance Hits & Future Dance Hits) whilst radio plays included spins on Radio 1’s Party Anthems and from Rickie, Melvin and Charlie. Over on TikTok, videos made using the track reached 1.5 million views in just two weeks. After the successes of 'Haiti' and 'All For You' followed the radio smash hit 'All Day' featuring Nonô (15 million streams, huge radio and streaming support, Irish Shazam Number 1 and certified PLATINUM in Ireland) and following 'All Day' came 2 more big feature singles
'Paranoid' featuring Izzy Bizu and 'Used To Be' featuring fellow Irish DJ/ Music Producer Shane Codd.

A superstar DJ and producer in the making, Welshy’s profile has skyrocketed since signing to Sony's Insanity Records. The Irishman has since moved to London where he is making a name for himself as one of the UK's most in demand music producers collaborating with the best in the business.

Co-Accused is the DJ duo of Raymond and Lindsay Green who are long established in Glasgow as label founders and party promoters of the same name. From their notorious basement raves in Club 69 they have played and hosted at most of the city’s best-loved party spots and have built a solid reputation in the Glasgow underground scene. Last year they held their debut takeover of Sub Club with a sell out night hosting Dave Clarke on his Archive One anniversary tour and at the end of 2024 they announced a quarterly residency at The Berkeley Suite. 

The pair know techno and electro inside out, their dynamic ethos and tack for driving up the energy levels as DJs has not only made them firm fixtures on local party line ups but has also taken them to Amsterdam, Barcelona and London. Fuelled by the pair’s devotion to underground club culture, Co-Accused Records is a hot bed of uncompromising club tracks, releasing sounds from the likes of Ben Pest, Luke’s Anger, Fear-E, Human Rebellion, ARA-U and Radioactive Man. To date, the label has been featured in DJ Mag and supported by some of the most respected heads in the game including Helena Hauff, Laurent Garnier, Dave Clarke and Slam.

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.
