Damian Robert Nesta Marley, also known around the world as “Junior Gong” and more recently as “Gongzilla” was born in 1978 to parents Bob Marley and Cindy Breakspeare, Miss World 1976.  As a young adult, he developed a passion and a gift to speak for those who cannot always speak for themselves. A self-proclaimed ‘Spiritual Revolutionary’, Damian has worked assiduously to carve his own niche in music history and to add a new perspective to the Marley legacy for the 21st century. 

At the age of 13, Damian began performing in a group called “The Shepherds” which comprised of Shiah Coore (son of Third World guitarist Cat Coore) and currently a member of his band, and Yashema Beth McGreggor, daughter of reggae singers Freddie Mcgreggor and Judy Mowatt and then began touring with his brothers, Stephen, Ky-mani, Julian and Ziggy. 

By 1996, Damian had already made his stamp as a different kind of Marley when he released his first solo album “Mr. Marley”, a heavily dancehall-influenced album produced by his brother Stephen Marley.  His second album “Halfway Tree” was released in 2001 by a major record label and showcased Damian’s unique gift for blending dancehall, reggae and hip-hop styles.  This album won Damian much recognition and remained on the Billboard Top Reggae Album Charts for 158 weeks and earned him his first Grammy for Best Reggae Album in 2002. 
While honored by this recognition by the global music fraternity, Damian continued to work in the studio, laying the groundwork for the tracks that would become his highly anticipated album, “Welcome To Jamrock”. The lyrics in this album presented Marley as a true spiritual revolutionary, as he used his talent to evoke a spiritual change while trying to enforce a better way of thinking.  He is described as “rhyming with the conviction of a street preacher with the intellect of a university economist”.  

Damian’s hit single “Welcome to Jamrock” was listed as one of the Top 100 Songs of the Decade by Rolling Stone, and at the 2006 Grammy Awards, he won Best Reggae Album and Best Urban/Alternative Performance for Welcome to Jamrock. Damian is the only Jamaican reggae artist in history to win two Grammy Awards on the same night. He is also the only reggae artist to win in the Best Urban/Alternative Performance category at the Grammy Awards. The New York Times called Welcome to Jamrock the “best reggae song of the decade.” 
Welcome to Jamrock led the pathway to Damian’s critically acclaimed collaboration with Nas for 2010’s much lauded album “Distant Relatives” – a project which explored the relationships between reggae, hip-hop and Africa. The album title refers not only to the bond between the artists, but the connection to their African ancestry, which inspired the album both musically and lyrically. USA Today referred to the album as a “potent and often provocative collaboration” and by Rolling Stone as “an Afrocentric winner.” The album debuted at Number 5 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart and Number 1 on the R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, Rap Albums and Reggae Albums charts, with Billboard heralding the album as “a dynamic hybrid.”    

The Distant Relatives Tour kicked off in 2011 and saw Damian traveling and performing for thousands of fans all over the world, including South America, Europe, The United Kingdom, The Caribbean and North America.  

Damian continued to cross musical boundaries in 2012, as he went on to partner with Skrillex for their groundbreaking track “Make It Bun Dem”, which Rolling Stone called “a monster mash up of dubstep and dancehall” and has led to several remixes of the original version.  Damian recently released two other singles; “Set Up Shop” and  “Affairs of the Heart” which both received widespread airplay. 

Damian continues to tour with his band all over the world as a way of entertaining and healing as he continues to spread the message for those whose voices cannot be heard. He is working with his brothers Stephen and Julian under their Ghetto Youths International Label, to discover, develop and sign gifted artistes by applying their musical talent and vast experience to create new and different styles of music.  

Damian is currently in the studio working on his upcoming solo album.

Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Philippe Gimbrère (aka Gimbrère) creates uplifting, dancefloor connecting and melodic (house)music.

At the age of sixteen Gimbrère met ‘90s Dutch DJ legend Dimitri Kneppers who invited him for his performance at the long-running Amsterdam techno festival Awakenings in 2012. Because of this experience he saw the connection between the artist and the audience from another perspective. The energy created by this extraordinary link triggered Gimbrère into making music. 

Making music depends on finding inspiration and to be honest there is no secret formula for Gimbrère to get creative. However, he feels most inspired when he envisions a crowd’s response to a certain rhythm, melody or harmony. When he grasps this image, he wants to convey the same exact feeling, this surge of energy through synths, snares and (drum)samples.

In addition to completing his law degrees and invigorated by his peers, the hobby of a YouTube self-taught late-bloomer is growing into a professional endeavour. 

With his first single “A Thing”, appointed by DJ Mag as “hard-hitting, funk-sampling belter”, Gimbrère started to create waves in the scene, which led to a top 5 ranking in the Indie Dance and Nu Disco genre on Beatport.

Moreover, his tracks have been picked up by some big names in the industry including Annie Mac, Denis Sulta, Groove Armada, MK, Solardo, Steve Lawler and Wankelmut to name a few.

What’s more, multiple plays on BBC Radio 1, among which his release on Sulta Selects Silver Service, can be seen as hugely exciting milestones.

The love and passion for music shows when Gimbrère is on stage and with his refreshingly versatile and hard to categorise productions, Gimbrère has just begun showing the world his musical view.

BIOGRAPHY:
Student dorms aren’t the usual catalyst for great musical achievements, but this is where Mark and Lars – better known as LarryKoek – started their own musical journey. 

They literally arose in the 80’s when two cute little baby boys where born somewhere in The Hague. Soaked with musical influences from these days the baby’s developed rather quickly in to real music lovers. 

After a few years of independent exploration, the LarryKoek duo formed in August 2014. The first eye-opening work of these two Dutchmen sparked the interest of record label Be Yourself Music and led to the release of summer anthem ‘’Honeybee’’ on Dirty Soul records. 

They created a unique funky sound in nowadays dance music, filled with guitar riffs, disco rhythms and catchy vocals.
