Hailing from Malta, Island of blistering sun and unparalleled nightlife, a nation home to a community of veracious revellers with a taste for club culture second to none. One of the founders responsible for this social landscape is Duncan F. An Architect so to speak whose work was the pediment of what today stands as an institution.
    
Invigorated by the emerging House scene led by Frankie Knuckles, Masters at Work and Tony Humphries, Duncan instinctively sold off his beloved drum kit (a gift from his parents) to buy his first set of turntables. By 15 he was DJing professionally, steadily ascending the ranks to soon confirming himself as a trendsetter in subculture musical styles on the Island. Nevertheless constantly creating, evolving and maintaining an open mind, always enthusiastic to exchange ideas with other artists to keep his sound fresh and challenging. His inspiration perpetually surrounding tech/house enchanting loops to create his signature fairytale feel.
 
Pushing Duncan to one of his biggest achievements was his displeasure with the direction in which the local establishments were moving. This alone encouraged him to orchestrate his own brand of events. These gatherings are now stalwarts in the club goer calendar, notorious for being true to the roots of the warehouse parties that made the scene what it is today, while consistently keeping the audience guessing.
   
Duncan’s next adventure came through producing and further establishing his international career. Having completed an Audio Engineering course in London in the late 2000’s the studio became his newly found arena. His productions, remixes and re-edits now consume most of his time, sometimes losing himself for hours and days at a time.
   
Nonetheless Duncan still confesses his real home to be the DJ booth. Aspiring to play to a more varied congregation and invariably attempting to balance his studio time with overseas bookings.  Till this day he refuses to pre plan his sets, his philosophy being that ‘it would be arrogant of me to show up knowing exactly what (and when) I am going to play’.  He believes that for a night to be unforgettable it boils down to one thing...The vibe, ‘the vibe is a living, breathing entity, it needs to be nurtured to a climax and the DJ must examine the crowd, push the boundaries and be prepared to gamble’. 

Duncan F is currently based in Amsterdam & has a myriad of tricks up his sleeve, his most recent stimulation being generated from Akumen, a partnership with Alex Thomson. With insuppressible passion and a work ethic to boot, the two are adamant on completing their vision and wont stop until its accomplished.

BIOGRAPHY:
Matthew Agius born 8/05/1986 was influenced by techno music from the age of 11. He used to buy tapes and cd albums, and also trying to produce some music of his own using computer software at an early age.

He was always into music and at the age of 14 he used to attend to a studio called ''Black Toe'' where he used to practice everyday and improvement was shown as months were passing by. 

His first gig was at a small club in Malta organised by FACT music agency, and after his performance the crowd seemed to be quite interested in this young guy. Then he was invited to be a resident at Redsquare Club by Fused Djing every Saturday night. 
He had a good response from Maltese crowd, and he performed together with big names such as, Tobias Schmidt, Bill youngman, Lars Klein, Carl Max, Dj Rush, Pet Duo, Dj Dexon, Oliver Ho, Mario Ranieri, Dj Spark, Felix Krocher, Tobias Luke aka OBI, Greg Notill, Waldhaus & Weichentechnikk, Sven Wittekind, reche & recall, Dave Clarke, Phil kieran, NDK, Bass Invaders, TSR, Anthony Rother, Andy Norman, Boris S, Arkus P, Robert Natus, Kaoz, Mark Hawkins, Eddie Halliwell, Smash Tv, Neil Landstrum, Dave Tarrida, Johannes Heil, Umek, Scan X and more. 

His first love was hard techno music, organising one of the biggest Hard techno events in Malta called EVIL ARTILLERY (2006 - 2010). He invited over alot of artists such as, Greg Notill, Spark Taberner, Waldhaus, Weichentechnikk, Dj Amok, Viper XXL, Felix Krocher, OBI, A.Paul, Eric Sneo, Par Grindvik & many more... Evil Artillery was a Huge event for 4 consecutive years, hosted in the best clubs in Malta, Sky club, Amazonia, Liquid & Tattingers. 

Now Hystericmaniak took another direction with techno music, and started to organise a club night with the name of TIMECODE (2010). Now he is more after the new techno sound following artists such as, A-Brothers, Niereich, Space Djz, Hackler&Kuch, Spark Taberner, Logotech, Knobs, Mike Humphries, Glenn Wilson, Submerge, Virgil Enzinger &.much more

He started releasing alot of good material (2011) with labels like, Hybrid Confusion, Battered, Shout, Gobsmacked, AAAAAH!, Voodoo, Bass Assault, Elektrax & much more to come working with alot of artists such as, Oliver Kucera, Frank Kvitta, Spark Taberner, Knobs, Overlook Hotel, Hugo Paixao & more.

He also founded a new Techno label with the name of BASS ASSAULT RECORDS (2011) with a concept in mind to mix the best young producers with much bigger names.


No accurate depiction of electronic music culture would be complete without special mention of Deborah De Luca. Widely acknowledged as one of the most prominent flag-bearers for Techno globally and a regular fixture inside the world’s most distinguished DJ booths, Deborah has the unique ability to transfix crowds with her electrically charged, technically nuanced sets, fusing hard techno with minimal grooves and melodic soundscapes to absorbing effect. A pioneer in the use of social networks as a promotional tool, whilst somehow managing to retain a strong sense of discretion in her private life, Deborah is unrivalled in her determination and passion, earning every part of her current status as one of the most exciting talents to emerge from the international Techno scene over the past decade.
Born under the shade of the infamous Vele di Scampia – one of the toughest districts in Naples – the now-globally recognised DJ, producer and label head came from humble beginnings, forging her path to international success against unlikely odds. However this was to become her making. “You shouldn’t let anybody tell you what you can or can’t become”, she expounded in a rare interview, referencing her early livelihood as a nightclub dancer. “It’s true, in recent years I have gained popularity, but I am very grateful for the long journey it’s taken”. More than anything else, Deborah’s roots and her unwavering ethic are an integral part of the flourishing artist we see before us today.
Deborah spent the formative years of her musical career in Northern Italy, following a brief stint at fashion school in Modena. Cutting her teeth on the European club circuit, where she quickly realised music was her true calling, Deborah’s hard work and relentless determination eventually began to pay off and in 2013 she launched her very own imprint Sola_mente Records. Created as a platform by which to release her own music, free from creative pressure and external constraints, the label went from strength to strength and in November 2018, Deborah marked a decade-long career in the industry with the critically acclaimed release of her debut album ‘Ten’. A huge milestone for the Italian producer, ‘Ten’ represented an important rite of passage and a body of work that she would cherish indefinitely.

DJ Miss Kartz, a Melbourne-based musical powerhouse, has built a reputation for her mesmerizing stage presence and technical skill, which she has continued to hone since participating in 'YOUR SHOT' in 2019. With a talent for seamlessly merging genres like Vocal House, Afro House, Nu Disco, Deep House, Tech House, and Melodic House & Techno, Miss Kartz creates immersive experiences that leave a lasting impression on her audiences across Melbourne. Her impressive credentials include supporting esteemed international and national acts, such as Roger Sanchez, Basement Jaxx, Victor Simonelli, Dirty South, Freemasons, Anthony Pappa, Sgt Slick, Andy Van & John Course, solidifying her position as a leading artist who consistently delivers outstanding performances.
