Brian Harden is a second generation Chicago House head, starting in 1995 under the wings of Glenn Underground, being part of the legendary Strictly Jaz Unit. His work on Detroit's Mike Grant and his Moods & Grooves label should also be noted.

One of his most famous works is his second EP on Cajmere's Relief Records, originally issued in 1996. The EP contains some of the most prolific drum machine action ever committed to vinyl and stands for the sound that brought Chicago House on top of the underground Music map in the mid 90s.

All four tunes have been carefully remastered from the original material for maximum club performance!

Fortunea Radioshow #152 // hosted by Klaus Benedek 2024-12-11

Tom Smeyers started collecting records back in '98. Since then he developed a style embracing the broad spectrum of early 90's deep house and Detroit house/techno.

Tom is known for starting festivals or club nights playing melodic Detroit house and later on advancing into an eclectic mix of early 90's New York house, garage house, and Motor City techno sounds. On special occasions, he takes out his Italo crates for a set of space disco and prime-time Italo disco.

In other words, a common thread running through most of his mixes is heavily influenced by the sounds of artists such as Glenn Underground, Ron Trent, Chez Damier, Funk D' Void, Reese, Romanthony, Mike Huckaby, Larry Heard, Octave One, Paperclip People and Kerri Chandler.

Tom recently obtained a residency at La Cabane, a new club based in Brussels listing international house music and disco lineups. Besides clubs, he mixes a monthly Friday night show for We Bring You on Bruzz and every two months you can find him in the wooden cabin of Kiosk Radio Brussels for a live stream mix.

During the last 20 years, Tom performed guest sets at various clubs in Belgium and abroad such as Vooruit, Silo, Westerliefde, Café d'Anvers, Decandance, Vlla, De ClubUp, Vaag, Bar Helder, Klub Goud, La Vilaine, The Wood, Kelly Palmer, La Cabane, FortyFive ... Throughout the festival season, Tom can be seen mixing at festivals such as Pukkelpop, Voodoo Village, and Booty Rave.

Launching his vinyl-only label SneakerFreaks Music in 2015, Tom took credit for the first release on the label. His Back & Forth EP was played by Kerri Chandler, Tom Trago, Bicep, Soul Clap and reached a solid number two spot in the House Music Buzz Chart curated by Decks Records.

Klaus Benedek grew up in a small town near Vienna. His interest in electronic music began during the 90s techno hype. He spent hours watching video clips on MTV and viva and thus gaining knowledge about electronic music. In 2004, he began teaching himself to produce. Gathering his inspiration wherever he could, he began collecting 12" vinyl records the same year and 2 years later got his first dj-gigs. From 2008 till 2010 he was one of the resident DJs at the MNML Thursdays in the Camera Club. In 2012 he started with Alex Kolodziej the event-series Tellerbetrieb. Currently he finds most of his inspiration in Chicago House, Deep House, Disco and Breakbeat. After releases on labels like Petrol Dollar, Subversaal, rekooda, Soul Shift Music, Clean and Dirty Recordings and tanzbar, Klaus launched his own label forTunea in 2014.

The Swiss, British and Australian multinational has been exploring machine-made music since the late 1990s, recreating in his own way off the classic sounds emanating out of Detroit, Chicago and London on an old MC-303 and Juno 106 synthesiser. His sounds continue today to be influenced by the House, Acid, Techno, Electro and Breakbeat music genres prominent in the US and UK scenes. Through the merging of the gritty with the soulful via both old analog and new digital tools, his music always delivers a raw but emotive touch.

His studio is fitted out with a small collection of classic Roland units, helping him keep true to the authentic sound he loves of the 303s, 909s and 808s. Evident in his own releases for others and on his own imprint Hummingbird, which has gained him regular support from a growing list of industry DJs such as Laurent Garnier, DJ Rolando, Vince Watson, Danny Tenaglia, Roy Davis Jr., DJ Sprinkles, DJ Bone, Ian Pooley, Fred P, nd_Baumecker, DVS1, Colin Dale, Marcel Dettmann, Slam, Tintonton Duvante, Trevor Rockcliffe, Truncate, Terry Frances, Quarion as well as being featured on NTS.

As a DJ both resident or touring his journey has taken him around the World to perform and play feature at venues such as La Ruche, Club der Visionäre, Sunday Breakfast Zurich, Griessmuehle, Brown Alley, Freedom Mills, MOS New Delhi and FUMP Thailand. He's supported acts such as Eric Powell, Brothers’ Vibe, Pier Bucci, Simon Coyle, Il Bosco, John Heckle, Hot Since 82, Stimming, Noir, Live & Roby, Shonky, Placid, Camea, Matthew Styles and Tobi Neumann.

Bart Ricardo a real music addict ... his profound passion for house music in combination with his technical skills and wide selection of genres soon landed him bookings at parties, major clubs and radio shows. His mixing talent quickly gained support and recognition from iconic house artists. Bart Ricardo notoriously shared many DJ line-ups with the likes of Derrick Carter, DJ Sneak, Gene Farris, Green Velvet, Roy Davis Jr. and many many more …
He’s often invited all across Europe for parties and radioshows, also regular tours in Asia and America, this makes him a respected member of the house music community. 
Bart Ricardo first released a track in 2009 on the American imprint Herbal Essence. His ever-expanding discography contains releases on respected house labels such as Farris Wheel Recordings, Gourmand Music, and Frequency Spectrum. In 2012, he topped the charts of popular online stores with his “Boom Away EP” on Tango Recordings.

That summer, Derrick Carter played “Spoken Words” in his sets and “Henry’s Philly” featured on Mark Farina’s GLA47 podcast and Roy Davis Jr. Clash Magazine podcast.
