D-Vox AKA Daniela Rhodes first touched the wheels of steel over 20 years ago, with the purchase of her Technics 1200s back in 2002. She's supported Judge Jules, Seb Fontaine, Sunscream & Brandon Block, has played at some top venues and events including MOS, Es Paradis, Logic Fest and Soundwave Fest, and has shared the bill with craft masters Matt Fax, Frankie Wah, Junior Jack, John00Fleming, MarkEG, Space Brothers, and Cristian Varella, amongst others.

From mixing hard dance in her bedroom inspired by Tiesto, and through the heavy influence of her music loving parents, Daniela competently and passionately delivers multi-genre DJ sets ranging from feel-good disco right through to the deepest, darkest techno, and has gained a wealth of experience as an artist since her music journey began.

D-Vox is also a versatile vocalist and, since her days of singing old school garage classics into her hair brush with a dream of one day becoming a singer, she has developed a unique ability to accompany instrumentals within her glowing, multi-genre sets with her impressive live vocals.

Daniela is steadily becoming recognised for her skills in the studio as well as on stage and has worked with many respected artists including Philth, JP Lantieri, Xspance, Fractal Architect, ACAY, MellowD, Monsieur Pluspetit, Sweet LA, Collate, Audioglider, J Luada, Matt Black & Chris Sterio, Somar Nomar, Findike, Dolby D, Martyn Nytram, Mogi Wa Wa, Doppelstern, Stu Chapman, Joey Fehrenbach, Col Lawton, to name a few.

Her collaborative releases span across a multitude of highly acclaimed labels including Bonzai Progressive, Superfreq, Dispatch Recs, Upon You, Morphosis, Krafted, Cinematique, RG Music, Big Speaker, Zulu Recs, Modus Vivendi Records, HoTL Records, Stripped Music, ARRVL, DeepDownDirty, Flemcy Music, and many more.

Daniela's collaborations have also seen some mighty remixes by powerhouse producers inclusing Mr.C, Nichols, David Leckenby, Focus FL, Zstimer & WRU, Simon Harris, WLSN, Nostromos, KETNO and Konvic.

Daniela hosted her live show 'D-Vox & Guests' on Bournmouth’s Afro*disiac Radio for 5 years before making the hard decision to step away from radio to focus on collaboration projects. She's also aired popular shows on Southampton's Voice FM and Germany's Progressive Beats Radio between 2015-16. Her 3-month residency at a luxury Ozen By Atmosphere resort in Maldives was a highlight in 2017, and she spent the next few years that followed laying her foundations in Ibiza and Aiya Napa, performing at top night spots with Parasol Collective, ANHP, and Voice FM.

D-Vox has made many guest appearances on nationwide radio stations, including London’s legendary LifeFM, also at Shine879 in Essex, and with BBC Radio 1 residents Krafted for their radio show streamed live from The DJ Shop in Southampton shortly after which she was invited to play at their quarterly event supporting the mighty Matt Fax alongside Krafted residents.

An amazing opportunity was then presented to D-Vox, by dj/producer Laurent Schark, to share her sound on his Live Selection Show; the worlds’ most syndicated radio show reaching out to 3 million listeners which she accepted with a very big smile. The segment featuring Daniela was unknowingly picked up by Italian cable channel Canal 7 that streamed her live set, and artist interview, out to the Mediterranean masses.

With the help of her South African soul friend DJ Sharm Pillay, D-Vox sailed into 2019 with a four-page spread in global Audiation Mag's Jan issue which included her snap on the cover. Following this she was invited by Sharm to share some melodic techno moods with her SEKSiCuLLTURE listeners on Melbourne's Kiss FM, Australia.

As well as being heavily involved in the practical side of music Daniela is also a keen writer of more than just her deep and meaningful lyrics. She copywrites for Flemcy Music, Findike Records and Dark Hooks Recordss, and provides music and event reviews, press releases, pitches, and proofreading services on request.

Daniela also a proud member of The Black Chapel Collective; a passionate group of creative artists founded by Essex based music producer Steve Mortimer, with a worldwide, multi-award winning film & live show 'Connect', addressing important global issues using contemporary music, visuals, graphics, speech samples, poetry & dance.

With a bustling music diary, an ever-evolving and dynamic catalogue of works, and with producers queuing to work with her captivating vocals, Daniela has her foot firmly on a pedal powered by her relentless passion for the music she loves. Who knows where her talents will take her as she continues to share her positively infectious, and highly creative music energy as far & wide as she can spread it.

Hi! My name is Johan and this is where I post my various mixes. I've been DJ-ing since 1997 and am Senior Curation Director at DI.FM (www.di.fm). I've been doing these mixes since early 2000 and they feature whatever the heck I'm into atm but usually it's some sort of current Techno, Acid Techno, Progressive House, Hard Trance OR retrospectives about various labels and artists from the 90s.

AssortedTrance.com is the web site were I've been publishing these mixes since the start (in the beginning as DJ Irish) but who visits web sites these days?

With my own producions i am close to Goatrance and sometimes classic Early-Trance ('90-'95). Each new track i made tells a new story. I try to compose memorable melodies, find new sounds, create a unique atmosphere. I dont use samples. All is made with hard- and software, Analog and digital synthesizers and drum computers. :)

As a DJ i played at many parties and festivals: Odyssee, Freqs, Antaris, Frühlingszaubertraum, many small parties in Berlin, some parties in Belgium, Hamburg, NRW and so on. In the past i was very focused on more hart and agressive Goatrance. Nowadays i am more open minded for different styles like Trance, Breaks and Techno as long as they are hypnotic melodic, psychedelic and/or experimental. Combine this with Goatrance its very exciting for me.

Listening to techno since 1988. The TB-303 sound was a revelation, back then, and still fascinates me.

PORN ACCOUNTS WILL BE BLOOKED AND I HAVE NO PROBLEM BLLLOCKING YOU.  P.L.U.R I will keep on Believing in God and keep on RAVING. 

Electronic music artist and @mindgamesrec founder.

Luca Maniaci is a young artist from Palermo (Italy), born in 1990 in a small town near the Sicilian sea. Thanks to his mother, Luca grew up listening to quality music of various genres. It was during his adolescence that he discovered electronic music and started DJing, producing and releasing music, even on well established record labels. Over the years, his music has been played and supported by dozens of well known DJs of the electronic music scene. Luca is a very eclectic artist, year after year he produced different styles of electronic music, until he found his path in techno music, but he has a 360° musical culture: Apart from many different electronic music genres, he loves 60/70s Psychedelic Rock, Blues, Jazz, Classical music, Old School Rap and Hip Hop and so on. The older, the better! Luca is a huge fan of Pink Floyd and The Doors, just to name a few. In 2017 Luca launched his own record label Mind Games Recordings, where he releases his own music alongside well known names from the scene as well as new undiscovered talents that fit with Luca's concept of techno music. Over the years, Luca has also released his music on esteemed labels such as Ovum Recordings (for which he also remixed the legendary Josh Wink), Planet Rhythm, FLASH Recordings and several others. In the summer of 2025 he started his new label Luca Maniaci LTD, where he releases only and exclusively his own music, collaborations or remixes. As of 2025, Luca has more than a decade of musical productions behind him.
