Be it for a never-ending string of his chart-topping productions and remixes, his electrifying DJ-sets or his warm personality, Mike Vale does indeed stand out from the myriad of generic-sounding peers. Mike's story began in the vibrant music scenes of the early 2000s, where he immersed himself in the raw energy of underground house and techno. Inspired by British and American house culture, he crafted a distinctive sound that blends driving beats, infectious melodies, and a touch of nostalgia. His breakout track, "Pretty Woman," became a tech-house classic, launching him onto the global stage and solidifying his place among the genre's elite.

Mike has graced iconic stages like Ministry of Sound, Ultra Music Festival, Ultra Europe, and Carl Cox's Revolution at Space Ibiza, captivating audiences worldwide. A regular on Beatport's Top 10 charts and recognized as one of the "Hottest Tech-House Artists" and "Ones To Watch," Mike has become a revered name in the dance music community. From Ibiza to Coachella, EDC Las Vegas, and beyond, his music continues to move global crowds and dominate charts.

Growing up surrounded by music, Mike drew inspiration from his father's extensive vinyl collection. This early exposure sparked a lifelong passion and shaped his signature style, rooted in rhythm and groove. Starting as a DJ at a young age, he honed his craft through club residencies, learning the art of reading crowds and developing a sound that expertly balances energy and soul.

Known for his genre-defying approach, Mike seamlessly fuses groovy, tech-driven beats with the soulful roots of house music. His productions have become staples in the playlists of emerging DJs and industry legends alike, bridging generations of house music lovers.

Mike's impressive catalog includes releases on world-renowned labels like Armada, Toolroom, Strictly Rhythm, Cr2, Ultra, Relief, Glasgow Underground, and Nervous Records. His rework of Danny Tenaglia ft. Celeda's iconic "Music Is The Answer" for Glasgow Underground soared to #1 on the Beatport House chart, becoming a festival anthem supported by heavyweights like Fisher, Chris Lake, Fatboy Slim, Claptone and receiving regular airplay on BBC Radio 1. His remix of "Exceeder" with Umek reached #1 on the Beatport overall chart, while his remix of Prok & Fitch's "Simphony" also hit #1 on the Beatport House chart, further cementing his reputation for creating chart-dominating tracks.

Always pushing boundaries, Mike has collaborated with house legend Roger Sanchez to produce tracks that honor the genre's legacy while offering a fresh perspective on its future. His rework of "Just A Friend," sampling Angie Stone's classic "I Wish I Didn't Miss You," marked yet another Beatport Tech House Top 10, showcasing his ability to reimagine nostalgic sounds with a modern edge. His collaboration with Lee Cabrera on "Shake It" for Cr2 Records demonstrates his versatility in working with established artists across different electronic music genres.

Recent releases include "Get Back" on Strictly Rhythm, along with tracks like "Sanctuary," "To Move" on Armada's Undr The Radr imprint and other cutting-edge productions that continue to define the contemporary tech-house landscape.

Mike's DJ sets are an experience in themselves, blending his own tracks with fresh sounds and creating a dynamic, electric atmosphere wherever he plays.
