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.

Yalee: Echoes of Life and Music
In the annals of hip-hop, a voice emerges from the chorus every so often, distinct and resonant. Yalee is one such voice, a beacon of raw emotion and lyrical authenticity. His story is not just one of music but of life, resilience, and the objective truth of the streets.
Origins of a Name, Roots of a Legacy: Yalee, a name bestowed by his sister, echoes through the corridors of Dayton, Ohio - his cradle, and now weaves its rhythm in the sprawling landscape of Los Angeles. It's a name that speaks volumes of his journey, a beacon in his odyssey from the Midwest to the West Coast.
A Childhood Etched in Memory: Growing up in a single-parent household, Yalee's narrative was shaped by the absence of a father who was behind bars and the enduring strength of a mother's love. His upbringing, flanked by the presence of two brothers and a sister, was marked by an indelible moment - the tragic loss of his pastor in a Bible class. Such poignant memories etch deep into the psyche, fueling the emotional depth of his music.
Musical Genesis - The Early Beats: At age eight, Yalee's musical voyage commenced, not confined to genres but exploring the realms of rap and soulful singing. His style is an enigma, refusing to be pigeonholed, a testament to his belief in the power of individuality in art.
Influences - The Triad of Inspiration: Yalee's music is a tapestry woven with threads of influence from Adele's soul-stirring narratives, J. Cole's penetrating lyrics, and Rod Wave's heartfelt realness. Yet, in this confluence of inspirations, Yalee's voice remains distinct, unapologetically his own.
The Pulse of Life in Melody: Yalee draws from the well of life's hardships, channeling his experiences into his music. His EP "My Outside is Different" is a collection of stories, each track a chapter of his journey - "God Stay With Me," "Candles," "My Outside is Different," and "Mental Health," each a testament to his resilience.
A Distinctive Voice in a Homogeneous World: What sets Yalee apart is his ability to weave stories i.e. his raw lyrical prowess; as his musical arrangements resonate with the soul, making his work not just audible but palpable.
Beyond the Microphone: Yalee's talents transcend performing. He's a craftsman of words, ghostwriting for others while pouring his essence into every line he writes.
The Message - A Beacon of Solidarity: Yalee's mantra, "The streets are not fair," is a rallying cry for those who've tread similar paths. His music mirrors the shared experiences of many, an assurance that no one walks alone.
Epilogue: Yalee's journey is more than a musical expedition. It's a narrative of survival, of finding one's voice amidst the din, and of touching lives through the power of authenticity. His story and his music are a testament to the enduring spirit of the human condition.

Kassan “Kazzie” Sherman was born and raised in Newark, NJ, on 19th Street and South Orange Avenue, just a block from where Garden State rap dignitary Redman is originally from.  Fortunately, Kazzie avoided the ill street blues that plagued his rough neighborhood and found rapping as an outlet at an early age.  By the time he was 11, the aspiring lyricist was traveling up the block to Red’s old stomping ground and turning heads during the regular ciphers that would take place there.  “It was always guys out there rapping, going back and forth,” recalls Kazzie.  “They would get us out there battling against the older guys.  I went out there and I was rhyming better then some adults.”

In 2009, the 6-foot-4- inch rapper linked up with New Jersey indie imprint Nu World Era Music Group.  Spring 2014,  “Yeah Ok” was released under the indie label  NuWorld, which was also hosted my Power 105.1 “Prince of New York” DJ Self and Gwinning Records.  After the “Yeah Ok” release Kazzie moved forward in establishing his own musical idenity.  Currently crafted HOODSTONERS mixtape, solidifies Kazzie’s voice.  “These records show my struggle and what I have been through. Creatively and organically the flow was there”.   HOODSTONERS mixtape – the music has captured the waves of Social Media.  There is a MOVEMENT that has established behind Kazzie’s music because his fans have demanded it.  They are connecting to his sound.
