EVAN LANDES BIO
Born and raised in New York & currently residing in Los Angeles, Producer / DJ and record company owner Evan Landes (pka Groove Junkies, Cranky Owls, Nimble Digits) has gained wide support and respect throughout the international dance community over two decades for his consistent quality of work.

Since 1995 Evan has released an eclectic array of intoxicating dance grooves which are not bound by any gimmicky trends and memorable songs that stand the test of time. Within the genre of House music, each unique release can run the gamut stylistically - ranging from to deep, tribal, peak hour and electronic influenced tracks to organic soul, funk, afro, latin, jazz and gospel drenched songs.

Throughout the years Evan's original productions and remixes have amassed an impressive 25 Top 10 positions on Traxsource’s Top 100 download charts, a Top 5 and Top 20 on Beatport, as well as the no. 1, 2 & 5 slots on the European based DJ Mag Hype Chart and a couple of Top 5 positions in Billboard’s Top 100 Dance chart. In October 2010 his critically acclaimed debut artist album “In The Zone” shot up to the #1 position on the Top 100 Album Downloads chart on Traxsource within 4 days of its release and received ‘Album of the Year & Month’ kudos from numerous industry publications. 

His body of work has garnered DJ support from industry legends such as Frankie Knuckles, Louie Vega, David Morales, Roger Sanchez, Ben Watt, Joey Negro and Tony Humphries to name a few, along with a ‘who’s who’ list of industry tastemakers.

He's also collaborated on highly charted dance floor anthems for the likes of Om Records and Ben Watt’s Buzzin’ Fly and has contributed to the output of iconic labels such as Island/Def Jam, A&M, Warner Bros., J Records, Interscope, Ultra, Defected, Definity, Soulfuric, Mn2S, and LAY Records.

High profile commissioned remixes for international dance artists and top grossing acts have solidified Evan’s position as one of today’s most consistent and influential producers within the global House music community. Opting for quality over quantity, Groove Junkies treatment’s of songs from artists such as Ben Watt, Frankie Knuckles, Leela James, Deborah Cox, Marc Evans, Michelle Weeks, Lisa Millett, Carolyn Harding, Richard Earnshaw, Natasha Watts, Samantha James, Colonel Abrams, Rihanna and Pussycat Dolls all showcase Evan’s attention to production detail, his musicality and ability to move the crowd. 

Nominations for ‘Breakthrough Producer’ at London’s House Music Awards in 2005, and ‘Breakthrough DJ’ at the Ibiza DJ Awards in 2006 found Groove Junkies in company with nominees such as Dennis Ferrer, Steve Angello, Sebastian Ingrosso & Jamie Lewis and offered well deserved recognition of Evan’s exceptional ability.

He has headlined on 5 different continents and rocked the decks at such diverse venues / festivals / parties as Detroit’s Electronic Movement Festival, The Electric Daisy Carnival, Def Mix @ Pacha, Ibiza, Club Essential in Riga Latvia, Catwalk in Barcelona Spain, Turmills & The End in London, Street Parade in Zurich Switzerland, SHE @ Trademark in Sydney Australia, Indochine in Jakarta, Fruto Beach in Cartagena Colombia, Vox Bar & Pixie Club in Brazil, Mansion in Miami, Ruby Skye in San Francisco, The Smart Bar in Chicago and DEEP & Balance in Los Angeles to name a few. 

There’s no shortage of US based DJ’s & House producers, so it takes something quite special to rise above the rest and shine. The fact that Groove Junkies have cultivated such a strong reputation in such varied corners of this industry is testament not only to Evan’s enormous talent as a producer, his unbridled skill as a DJ and record label executive, but a combination of all - intertwined with that rarest of things; true star quality. There are no indications of letting up the pressure in 2016 and beyond.

Over the course of the last three plus decades, the German born DJ, musician and composer Marc Romboy has become synonymous with a soulful electronic music sound that has taken him all over the world. As well as releasing on only the most influential labels, from Innervisions to Cocoon and Kompakt to Senso Sounds, he is also the sole mastermind behind the influential Systematic Recordings label and has been since 2004.

Nowadays an album specialist, 2006 saw him release his debut album, the captivating „Gemini" whilst in 2017 Marc released his first listening long player called „Voyage de la planète“, a pure electronica album with classical music influence and later, in summer 2017 the live recording of his collaboration with the Dortmund Philharmonic Orchestra called „Reconstructing Debussy“, in cooperation with Boiler Room hit the stores.

Despite being a key player for so long, Marc is still as relevant as ever and remains right at the sharp end of electronic music. Proof of that comes in the form of his DJ schedule, which takes him from Fabric to Womb and Berghain to Rex, as well as to not one but three separate Boiler Room shows. All three proved Marc to be a dexterous performer who never relies on obviousness or gimmicks, instead telling truly musical stories that place dancers right at the heart of the action.

Kúmbale is a German-based independent music platform. The two musicians in charge are DJ and Producer René Gamez aka Skruper Sounds / SSDSS (Mexico /Global Bass Berlin) and Pocho Gonzalez aka DJ Gonzalez (Electropical Munich). „Our mission is to serve as an underground runway between Latin America and Europe. We want to spread our friends' and colleagues' creations. That means we want to support our more established colleagues entering Germany, and offer maximum promotion to the newcomers,” says DJ Gonzalez. What started as a pun – “Cumbia Mapalé = Kumbale” – evolved into a sound system that is right now focusing on publishing compilations. It aims at broadening its activities, starting with music including more forms of latin and “sudaka” arts as a cultural movement. Why? Because we love what is going on at home in our countries and we don't want the party to stop. This is an open invitation to all Djs, Djanes, producers, musicians and bloggers to walk this path together with us. When there is turmoil between north and south things have to move on.

Kúmbale es una plataforma de música independiente con base en Alemania. Comandada por el DJ y Productor René Gamez aka Skruper Sounds / SSDSS (México /Global Bass Berlin) y Pocho Gonzalez aka DJ Gonzalez (Electropical Munich) “ Queremos ser una pista de aterrizaje ilegal entre Latinoamérica y Europa , difundir las creaciones de nuestros amigos y colegas , a los ya consagrados darle cabida en Alemania y a los nuevos mucha promoción „ dice DJ Gonzalez . „lo que comenzó como un juego de palabras Cumbia Mapalé = Kúmbale paso a ser un Soundsystem y hoy ya publica toma forma de compilados , ojalá en el futuro sea más grande la convocatoria y se pueda llegar a un colectivo cultural ,donde no sólo sea música lo que se difunda , si no Arte Latino y Sudaka , por que amamos lo que está sucediendo en nuestra tierra y la fiesta no deben parar . Dejamos abierta la invitación a todos los Djs DJanes y Productores, Músicos y bloggers a compartir este camino junto a nosotros ! „Si choca el Norte con el Sur y algo tiene que pasar“

Kúmbale ist eine independent Musik Plattform, die Ihre Basis in Deutschland hat. Organisiert wird sie von DJ und Produzent René Gamez aka Skruper Sounds / SSDSS (México /Global Bass Berlin) und Pocho Gonzalez aka DJ Gonzalez (Electropical Munich). “Unsere Mission ist es eine illegale Landebahn zu bieten, zwischen Lateinamerika und Europa. Wir wollen verbreiten, was unsere Freunde und Kollegen kreieren, den etablierten Künstlern Präsens in Deutschland ermöglichen und den Newcomern die beste Promo.“ sagt Dj Gonzalez. Was als Wortspiel begann - „Cumbia Mapalé = Kúmbale“ - entwickelte sich zu einem soundsystem, dass mittlerweile Compilations veröffentlicht. Wenn die Beteiligung groß genug ist, kann Kumbale zu einem colectivo cultural werden, und dann nicht nur Musik promoten, sondern auch Latin und „Sudaka“ Kunst. Denn wir sind verrückt danach, was bei uns zu Hause abgeht, und die Party soll kein Ende nehmen. Wir laden alle Djs Djanes, Produzenten, Musiker und Blogger dazu ein, zusammen mit uns diesen Weg zu gehen. Wenn Norden und Süden aufeinander prallen, muss etwas passieren.
