It has taken just three brief years for Dublin born Simon Glynn to make his mark on dance music both at home and abroad. A somewhat late starter his initial break came through residencies at high profile clubs Tripod and The Kitchen, both renowned venues for House music in Dublin.
Following on from his initial success a series of prime support slots inevitably followed with Glynn taking to the stage alongside main room icons like Sander Van Doorn, Arty, Max Vangeli & AN21 in the past year. His position as DJ of choice for ‘Residence’ the standout national dance brand in Ireland further increased his reach with high profile shows in all four corners of Ireland in store as well as further performances from Glynn in Ireland’s premier club The Wright Venue. The summer just gone saw him go international when he supported The Shapeshifters and Dj legend Seb Fontaine at an intimate two day event in Romania.

Simon’s sound is perfectly tailored for the main room. He combines his tech house influences with innate big room expertise to create a potent mix. Never afraid to take risks, Simon’s sets have become increasingly dominated by his own productions. Edits, bootlegs and of late original tracks give his sets the personal touch often lacking with today’s Beatport influenced performers. His adventurous style has led him to a prime position among Irish djs in 2012.

Production is a natural progression for Glynn. A distinctive sound wasn’t hard to come by for a man who has a unique understanding of what works on the dancerfloor. Punchy tech house beats combined with Simon’s keen ear for a melody make his future releases an exciting prospect.

Being one of the most in-demand Techno DJs of our times, Ben Klock needs little introduction. His name has been closely associated with Berlin’s legendary club Berghain since 2005. His monthly residency has formed the backdrop to his international success, providing an invaluable platform for his ability to create a room rather than just play to it.

Much of his early career was marked by marathon sets – a signature that played a considerable role in nurturing his skills and reputation – but even the more compressed sets he shares today evidence an intricate narrative and sense of flow that defines him as a DJ. It was these inherent abilities that led him to compile the fabric 66 compilation in 2012, before winning the BBC Radio 1’s Essential Mix of the Year award in 2015.

His releases on Ostgut Ton have become landmarks in the imprint’s history. 2009’s “Dawning”, the first of his collaborations with Marcel Dettmann kickstarted the label itself and remains a stand-out track in its discography. Another release of particular note is the Before One EP including “Subzero”, which many techno lovers still refer to as their gateway track into the whole genre itself. For many, however, it is his album One (2009) that best captures Klock’s talents as a producer. His skills as a remixer have also seen him rework tracks by a wide variety of artists, including Kerri Chandler, Depeche Mode, Robert Hood and Kenny Larkin.

Additionally, Klock curates with great passion his own label Klockworks, founded in 2006. With releases from DVS1, Stef Mendesidis, The Advent, Sterac, Etapp Kyle, Temudo and many more Klockworks became a synonym for unique, high quality Techno.

In 2017 Ben started his own event series PHOTON which is a unique concept show that blends light, architecture and music. Since then he toured PHOTON at special venues in major cities around the world such as Printworks (London), Gashouder (Amsterdam), Arca (Sao Paolo), to name a few. It quickly became a new standard for audio visual electronic music events. In 2023 the project returns after a pandemic induced break with a brand new visual and artistic concept.

❐ BIO
2Loud is basically focused on modern techno, surrounded by high quality textures and evolving ambients, combined with the original old-school sounds coming from Detroit and Chicago. So he decided to be hybrid-oriented at this point, for a fresh product ready to burn the dancefloor. 

His tracks were published on labels like ITALO BUSINESS, NAKED LUNCH, DOLMA RECORDS, to mention a few, and SEQTOR (CEO & Owner).

Thank to his results in this music scene, the young dj from Riccione (IT) has already several gigs in his curriculum both in his country and foreign countries too, especially in German/Swiss territory:

("Rheingold Club"/Dusseldörf, "Club London" / Ludwigshafen am Rhein, "Ug Bulach"/Zurich, "ToY Club"/ Stuttgard) in addiction to a relevant place at the "Illusion Music Festival" in Pinerolo (Tourin) in 2012 where he played after the well-known Ellen Allien (B-Pitch Control). 

Not less important are the past and present gigs in the territory of Rimini and Riccione, such as Peter Pan, Altromondo Studios, Echoes, Pascià, Byblos, Classic Club, Villa delle Rose and Velvet, to name a few of the most popular.

Championing the new wave of electronic art.
