Patrick Topping, the UK’s esteemed DJ, producer, and engineer, has risen to become a globally renowned tastemaker in electronic music. With a career spanning over a decade, his record label and event series, Trick, has now surpassed 100 releases and hosted multiple festivals in Tenerife, Newcastle, and Budapest. Trick has also held residencies, events, or hosted stages at some of the world’s most prestigious clubs and venues, including DC10, Creamfields, The Warehouse Project, EDC Orlando, PICA Melbourne, Concourse Project Austin and many more. 2025 marks his third year as a resident at the legendary Ibiza club Hï, and also a refocus on the house, tech-house, and techno genres where he first made his name.

From humble beginnings, his first-ever DJ set was in a working men’s club in Newcastle in 2009, followed by years of promoting events, DJing locally, and studying music production. This led to his breakthrough moment in 2013 with a release on Jamie Jones’ Hottrax label and becoming a Paradise resident until 2019. He has been more or less constantly touring the world for 12 years now, playing huge festivals such as Tomorrowland, Glastonbury, Coachella, EDC Vegas, Awakenings, and Ultra—as well as many influential clubs along the way. In 2022, he won Best British DJ in DJ Mag’s Best of British Awards, adding to an impressive list of accolades including: Tech House DJ of the Year (2018), Track of the Season for “Forget” (2014), Newcomer DJ (2014) at the DJ Awards Ibiza, and DJ Mag’s Tune of the Year in 2014 for “Forget.”

As a recording artist, Patrick has now released over 100 original tracks and remixes, with “Be Sharp Say Nowt” (2017) going on to become certified silver in the UK in 2021. Known for pioneering new sounds within house, techno, and British dance music, he is one of the most versatile tastemaker DJs and producers in electronic music. His music is grounded in Chicago house and Detroit techno, yet always looking to innovate. Patrick has worked with pioneers of these genres, including multiple collaborations with Chicago’s Green Velvet—such as their 2014 smash “Voicemail,” “Mad Motion” (2024), “Shining,” and “When Is Now” (2015). He’s also done remix swaps with Chicago legend the late Paul Johnson and collaborated with Detroit icon Kevin Saunderson on “Frisk,” which featured on the official soundtrack to the 2022 film The Batman. Crossing over into pop, he has also remixed high-profile artists including The Streets, Sam Fender, Robyn, and Calvin Harris.

His ascension through the international DJ ranks has been matched by his shrewdness and passion for spotting and championing emerging talent. In 2019, he launched his influential label and event series, Trick, which has become one of the most popular underground dance music brands. Curated by Patrick himself, Trick has provided a platform for breakthrough acts such as Ewan McVicar, Ben Hemsley, Hannah Laing, and many more. Its loyal fanbase has become one of the most passionate communities in dance music, with fans proudly sporting the brand’s lightning bolt on merchandise—and even tattoos—at events across the UK and beyond.

With an exciting release schedule ahead and still driven by the same raw energy that first inspired him as a raver, Patrick Topping continues to live his dream while staying grounded. A hardworking, humble, and visionary artist, he remains a key contributor to club culture—whether behind the decks, in the studio, or uplifting the next generation of talent.

A globally respected and highly accomplished artist, label boss at the seminal Hot Creations, founder and curator of the worldwide Paradise event series and member of cross-genre band Hot Natured, Jamie Jones has achieved iconic status in the electronic music world. A trendsetter and seasoned tastemaker, the Welsh dance music superstar pioneered his own distinct sound, drawing on his deep knowledge and experience to cultivate DJ sets that weave through a range of diverse, complementary styles selected to energise and enchant the dance floor.

A man who needs little introduction, Southampton born techno legend Alan Fitzpatrick has spent the last decade carving out his musical niche and holding rank in the upper echelons of the underground electronic world. Few artists can claim to have headlined Berghain and also had a hit on daytime BBC Radio 1, but then there aren’t many artists like Alan Fitzpatrick. 

One of the most popular techno DJs in the world, he has rubbed shoulders with the likes of Carl Cox and Adam Beyer for the best part of a decade, performing at the world’s biggest clubs and festivals. Known primarily for his raw hard-edged sound, Alan has developed into one of dance music’s most versatile producers, equally at home putting out techno bangers on Drumcode as he is making disco-infused house anthems, or experimental electronica under his 3STRANGE alias, not to mention his impressive range of collaborations (including CamelPhat, Skream, Sasha, Rebūke and Jamie Jones). 

The We Are The Brave and Apex Faction label don adopts a no nonsense approach to A&R and in 5 short years Alan has welcomed some of Techno’s finest producers to his fold. The Englishman champions the musical output of both established artists and breakthrough alike, accumulating over 50 million Spotify Streams on We Are The Brave records since its inception in 2016. Fast-forward to 2021 and the southern powerhouse shows no sign of slowing down, his passion for music permeating all aspects of his career. The WATB frontman is renowned for curating an evening of exceptional magnitude, having already showcased his roster’s talent at The Warehouse Project, Shine Belfast, SWG3 Glasgow and the infamous Fabric nightclub in London.

SHAAKER
Birmingham in the West Midlands UK has always been a cultural melting pot of musical influences which has delivered a nightclub scene that has produced seminal electronic acts. From Steve Lawler, The Streets, Bentley Rhythm Ace and beyond, the city has nurtured artists that have really made a difference on the international stage.
A DJ Producer that has dedicated his life to pursuing that dream which few rarely attain is DJ Shaaker. Previously known as Sonny Koko, he switched his performance brand back to his own name to re-establish his authentic self in the eyes of his fans. That journey has seen him play at some of the UK’s biggest venues as he delves deep into the realms of House and Techno.
Those first steps on the path to success had their beginnings on belt driven turntables in the rave and private party scene until one glorious night at Circoloco. Dancing under the watchful gaze of the Crazy Clown, Shaaker discovered the underground, and from that moment on, his life as changed. No more wild trips into wasted hedonism, the underground is where it’s at, and he has proved his mettle many times over.
Developing a sound and mixing style that has seen him in hot demand, Shaakar has played at iconic venues as far afield as Manchester, Leeds and the mecca of the UK scene London. Performing at Ministry of Sound, The Rainbow Venues, Amusement 13, Studio 338, Warriors, and the place where only the Gods may tread, Sankeys London, has seen his reputation soar over the years. So much so that he has played alongside DJs such as Adam Beyer and Ida Enberg, Jamie Jones, Richy Ahmed, Waff, Steve Lawler & many many more. 
It was therefore never in any doubt that Shaaker would move into the studio and turn his very capable hands to music production. After releasing tracks for several labels including Relative Music, HIPPIES, Materialism and Under No Illusion, he sought out the guidance of the aforementioned giant of the industry Steve Lawler. Immediately signing his Techno remix of Eldon’s ‘Joss’ to Viva Music, Shaaker’s reputation will go from strength to strength.
With a whole host of tracks ready to drop on major labels and a relentless summer performance schedule planned, there is no question that Shaaker is going to provide the shakedown that dancefloors have desperately yearned for over the past couple of years. Make his world your final destination. It will be a place you never want to leave.

Trick is an acclaimed dance music label and event brand owned and curated by global dance music icon, Patrick Topping.

The Newcastle native launched Trick in 2019 as a platform to spot and champion emerging artists, both in the studio and behind the decks. Since then, Trick has become one of the scene's most popular underground dance music event brands and record labels, launching the careers of some of the UK's biggest ticket-sellers and creating a cult fan following along the way.

As a record label, Trick is set to his 100 releases in 2024 and has given an outlet to many new signings who have since become some of the fastest-rising stars in the UK, such as Ben Hemsley, Hannah Laing and Ewan McVicar, who delivered platinum-certified “Tell Me Something Good” along the way. 

Trick's loyal fanbase has become one of the most passionate communities in dance music, with fans sporting Trick's signature lightning bolt on merchandise and tattoos at events throughout the UK and beyond. From completing a 9-date residency in 2022 at Ibiza's legendary DC10, to hosting a stage at EDC Orlando 2022, to attracting 10,000 ravers to The Warehouse Project in Manchester and bringing thousands to an Australian Debut in Melbourne in 2023. Then there is the Trick Weekenders, Budapest in 2022 and Tenerife in 2023. These events both saw 2,500 Trick Troops holiday and party together abroad, with Trick Tenerife this year set to double in size.

In 2024 Patrick is set to give back to his roots, bringing legions of fans to his hometown of Newcastle this summer 2024 with the launch of Trick Fest. Trick will also return to Ibiza, hosting a four-date residency in Hï’s Theatre on Wednesdays.
