Born from the collision of German precision and Japanese soul, I’ve spent over 25 years navigating Techno’s raw energy, Minimal’s hypnotic pull, and the timeless grooves of House and Disco. Now, I'm creating something entirely my own: Body of Work. This is my playground – a space free from the expectations of the dancefloor, where I can explore my full musical freedom. Each episode is an unfiltered expression of my journey, a realm where I weave together the sounds and stories that have shaped me. No boundaries, no compromises – just pure, unadulterated sound. Welcome to Body of Work. This is me, unleashed.

Bio by Marcus Barnes:
House music is thriving in France once again, with clubs popping up all over the nation and a new generation of artists coming through to spread the French house feeling around the world. One of the nation’s most exciting breakthrough French artists is Mr KS (AKA Jean-Pierre Baroni), a producer and DJ from the south of France who announced his arrival on the world stage with a debut EP on ( djebali ) presents. In the three years since that release he has continued to impress, with several more EPs and an increasingly busy tour schedule.

As a youngster Mr KS was inspired by that timeless Chicago sound, from rough ghetto house through to the deeper sounds that flowed out of the house mecca. Names like DJ Deeon and Gemini were responsible for turning him on to house production in those early stages. Years later it was to be artists from his home nation who kept the fire burning; Apollonia, Djebali, Point G – Frenchies who represent only the very best in contemporary house music.

Having started making music in 2006, Jean-Pierre's big break came with the label owned by one of Paris' most exciting talents, Djebali. Mr KS sent some demos to Djebali and before he knew it, his fellow countryman was playing them. What happened next was explained by Djebali in an interview with The Independent newspaper in the UK, "Every time I was playing Mr KS' tracks, they were burning the clubs – so I had to release them and that's why I started this project", he said of the tracks and his new ( djebali ) presents label.

The vinyl-only release went straight to No.1 on Decks.de with days of its release, picking up plaudits from far and wide and sparking interest in the Frenchman from labels in the UK and across Europe. The deep, dancefloor-orientated cuts had done their work both in the clubs and in the charts – one of the singles even made it onto Mixmag's top 100 tunes of 2013 chart, quite an achievement for a debut release.

Two more EPs followed in 2014; the huge ‘Making Beats’ on Tsuba, and ‘Da Season’ on Bristol’s Just Jack. Mr KS’ consistency and ability to craft mesmerising, dance floor-foucsed house grooves is evident in every one of his releases, this is a man who understands how to make people dance. Remixes of Laura Jones’ classic ‘Love In Me’ for Leftroom and Ralph Lawson’s ‘Kings’ for Lost In Time. Hot releases for Music Is Love and On A Mission Records followed in 2015, together with a second release on Tsuba, all receiving widespread support. 

In 2016 he joined Air London and took the next natural step in his career, starting his own and repeating the cycle started with his very first release. A home for up and coming talent, Mr KS & Friends launched its first EP with British producer Senzala, a four-track package which included a remix from One Records boss Adam Shelton. Supported by fellow Frenchies Apollonia, the EP demonstrated Monsieur KS’ ability to A&R and champion new talent, in much the same way as Djebali, the man who gave him his big break. 

Touring-wise, he has done it all, from club appearances in London, across France and the rest of Europe to bookings at prestigious events such as Carl Cox’s Revolution night at Space in Ibiza and Jardins Suspendus with Luciano in Marseille.

Mr KS brings serious grooves to every aspect of his career, from the studio, to the dance floor to signing new talent to his label. He’s one of a kind and a shining light in the ever-fertile French scene…

 That's Right, baby!

First of all, Little Hado is a person with great passion for quality sounds. Starting with year 2008,  his passion rapidly became a burning desire to learn how to play and produce music. 

From then on, in just one year he was invited to play at various parties - his first party was at an After Hours at Mash-up Club in Bucharest - thus gaining more experience and getting to know how and what can make a person smoothly move on the dancefloor.  

 
 Always open to new ideas and in continuos research for better sounds, his musical style ranges from house to techno and even experimental. 






Davide is not available for comment. He’s got to catch a flight; he’s rushing to the studio; the stage manager is frantically hurrying him into the booth; he’s meeting to discuss plans for his labels…or any of the other myriad reasons why Davide feels like he hasn’t slept, eaten or stopped running for what seems like his whole life.

Born in Siena, raised in Naples, it took a trip to London for Davide to finally discover electronic music. Wooed by the mood and sound of the British scene, he returned to Naples flush with energy, excitement and a knowing that this new calling would consume him. 

Davide immersed himself in this world in every conceivable way. In 1999 he began studying at the Naples’ school of sound engineering, tinkering with his first productions, promoting techno events, and finally performing. His first releases on Primate Records, Design Music andConform were a cadence of his arrival and showcased the young artist’s steadfast style.

Having honed his craft at home, in 2004 Davide left Naples for Barcelona unwavering in his resolve. Now, while touring around the continent, he began to release in earnest what would become a massive body of work, and at a dizzying pace. His productions have graced the catalogs of some of the finest labels including Ovum, Sci+Tec, Morris Audio, Resopal Schallware, Supernature, CMYK, Adagio, Viva, Nervous, Saved, Shake, Rillis; the list goes on… 

Added to that, you have to take into account the labels which Davide founded and still curatestoday – Sketch, Minisketch, Vir, 500, Titbit and Hideout. 2012 sees the start of Davide’s latest innovative project. This and That Lab will be a unique fusion of label and think tank combining music, art and culture used as a platform for Davide and other like minded artists to develop creative projects in music, visual art, design, fashion and writing.

In addition to his genre-defining works, Davide continues to inspire and ignite dancefloors worldwide. Whether it be at Circoloco, where he has been a resident since 2007, Womb, Berghain, D.Edge, or any other marquee venue, Davide plays with an unequalled funk and excitement. His signature sets, revered by the masses and peers alike, do a double duty in guarding our much-loved traditions while constantly pushing them forward.

The realm of possibilities for one of electronic music’s leading lights is endless. Unfortunately, the minutes in the day are not. Davide’s answer is simple – do what you love and make no compromises.
