Shivanki is a Netherlands based DJ, producer, promoter and artist located in Rotterdam, spinning the decks since 2007 upon visiting her first local small goatrance party.At the moment she is involved with 3rd-BIT and with Psychedelic Rave/Universal Mind.

Shivanki style is best described as whimsical, dark, enchanting, hypnotizing and mesmerizing with lots of drive, flow and energy with an elegant delivery. Main subgenres of choice being dark psychedelic trance leaning mostly to forest style, while also playing night psytrance or more uptempo full on psytrance. The overall sound for all trance sets is leaning towards the more old skool oriented styles, preference for subtle melodies and an emphasis on a driving bass line and yet very distinguishable. There is also a possibility to book for chill out areas with focus on ethnic, oriental and folk music. Music production used to be an on and off thing but started to get into serious shape, since 2020 working on an album and on a vocal oriented electrofolk side project.

"What I tend to do is to create a set that I myself want to dance to, and to tell a story for the audience to completely lose themselves in the music in order to release tension, stress and all the other things that bothers one from daily routine matters, to give oneself a bit of peace of mind. Depending on the time of the day, the weather and the atmosphere I adjust the music accordingly to create a safe place in which one can be in touch with its true core being. This is something that seems to work quite well, it has made me going places, I am surprised and so happy for that, and I look forward to visit more places in the future."

Shivanki - Psy Alliance Mix 010 - Live at Machine Elves 24-09-2022

Born in 2000 Mexico, Daniel Hernandez is the creative force behind the “Hardynez” project, delving into the psytrance scene since his first rave experience in 2017. Transitioning to DJing in 2018, he shared stages with international acts like “Neuromotor” and “Brain Hunters,” alongside numerous Mexican DJs. Building confidence through local gigs, he began producing his own music, with his debut independent release in 2021, followed by tracks on national labels like “360 Music Records” and “Resonance Space Records,” accumulating over 80,000 total plays. In 2024, he joined Divinity Records, aiming to captivate even the most discerning listeners with his signature blend of powerful basslines and mesmerizing arpeggios.

Daniel Flores, known professionally as D-Tha-Prophet, was born in Guatemala and relocated to Canada at the age of 12.

 His musical journey commenced early as he explored various instruments, including the trumpet, drums, and bass guitar. At 14, his passion for electronic music was ignited by his first encounter with a drum machine.

Growing up with a rich tapestry of musical influences—from the psychedelic sounds introduced by his father to the intensity of metal—Daniel developed a profound appreciation for trance music in the early 2000s. Captivated by the vibrant energy of his first rave, he embarked on a DJ career in 2005, inspired by the legendary Toronto Trance figure, Dr. Trance.

In 2009, he launched his podcast, D-Tha-Prophet’s Official Trance-Xperience, which showcased a diverse array of trance styles. This endeavor led to the founding of his production companies, Crystal Clear Productions and Darkside Productions, both dedicated to the darker facets of underground music.

Despite encountering various challenges, Daniel’s commitment to underground music has remained steadfast. In 2018, he ventured into music production, creating tracks influenced by artists like G.M.S. and 1200 Micrograms.

Today, Daniel is making his return to DJing, expressing his passion for underground music in every mix. He skillfully navigates a wide range of genres, from Goa Trance to Hi-Tech, while primarily favoring psychedelic trance and forest psy, allowing him to convey his moods and emotions through his art.
