Daniel Carlsson aka Dani-C is a Dj from Stockholm, Sweden. From an early age, he performed his own songs, which he wrote in school. From that time on, he knew that someday music and performance was going to be something he would do for the rest of his life. He had found his passion and calling.

In 1983, as a 12 year old, he took his first steps into Pipers, a big disco in Torremolinos, Spain. The atmosphere was euphoric. DJ was playing Kool & the Gang, "She's Fresh". The dance floor was moving/bouncing up and down. The coloured disco lights were striking him like thunderous lightening bolts from heaven! It was confirmed, Dani-C wanted to be a DJ.

Dani-C has a huge collection of vinyl, with covering many styles, but it was the electronic music from the end of the 80's that influenced him the most. 

For that reason, he started listening to Techno and Trance in the mid 90's. Artists like Oliver Lieb, Emmanuel Top, Etnica and X-Dream were almost Gods to him.

But as time went by... it was one artist and album, that infected him the most into his love of "Progressive House" today, and that was the one and only, UK Sasha... with his  Global Underground Ibiza...

Listen to Daniel Carlsson's aka Dani-C's sets, they are filled with passion of electronic music that has influenced him over the years.

“Ever since Cicatrix, whose real name is Ilan Y. Kupers (The Netherlands, 1982) was a kid, he has always been in love with music which isn’t quite so extraordinary given the fact that his Mum was a secretary for Phonogram Records and his Dad produces an internal radio show for several hospitals in the area of Amsterdam. Whether it was taping the latest tunes on the radio or TV or making his own little radio show for an imaginary crowd, Ilan has always had music running through his veins.
Back in 2008, he finally managed to buy his own set of decks to practise mixing and started performing on local stations and at the infamous yet intimate Quest4Trance parties, as well as spinning alongside the likes of Misja Helsloot, Dazzle, RAM, Ron van den Beuken and Marc Simz. Furthermore, Cicatrix has done guestmixes on D.U.T.C.H. Radio (http://www.dutch-radio.nl ) and Radiovolum.no for world famous DJ's such as Andy Duguid and Lemon & Einar K.

Nowadays, it's anything but trance that defines Ilan's mixing; a fine blend of deephouse, tech house and techno is what's it's all about. This has brought him to play amongst Remy, Secret Cinema & Sandrien!

Inspired by the first mixing programs on the Dutch radio, Clement van Dijk started mixing in the early 80’s. Being the music obsessive that he is, it didn’t take him very long to find a local club (Display) to showcase his skills. After doing so for a couple of years the promoters of Arnhems hottest dance club; Luxor, offered him a monthly residency on the Stargate party's. This gave Clay the opportunity to play alongside almost every well-known deejay in Holland, and in countries like, Hungary, Mexico, Germany, England, Greece and others... 

This quietly-spoken DJ from Amsterdam has always understood what made people dance, but never compromised his vision of what good music should be like. By continuously following his favorite waxmasters, like John Digweed, Sasha, Nick Warren and Hernan Cattaneo, he developed his love for progressive house music. And now as a big fan of producers like, Guy J, Alex O'Rion, Marcelo Vasami, Matias Chilano, Matter, GMJ and many more....

His style reaches from proggy house with some of the most beautiful strings and vocals you are likely to hear unto deep and dark progressive. He combines deep house, progressive and melodic techno into a hypnotic and intense DJ set. His specialty is creating an atmosphere wherein the audience will be taken to a different musical level. He will take you on a rare, extraordinary and psychedelic musical trip in to the deep space of the progressive underground.

Every first Friday of the month Clay has his radio show Connecting Souls on Proton Radio. Let this joyful Deejay connect your souls on the dance floor with his magical mix of progressive house, deep house and melodic techno music. Now in these days you can find him as a resident in the best underground club in Amsterdam, The Recycle Lounge Gallery Club, and in the famous hotspot Club NL. Here he is the organizer of the party's 'Connecting Souls' and 'HUG' that stands for Holland Under Ground. So if you’re in the mood for a party, let Clay take you on his musical journey...
