Joe Black is a very street orientated lyricist. His lyrics are often very graphic, as he talks about his  trails and tribulations growing up in Islington. He has a certain way with words that keep the listener  interested in what he has to say. Joe Black started out emceeing to speed garage in 1998. 

He attended the music workshop at  George Orwell School which was ran by Heartless Cru’s DJ Fonti. He started rapping to Hip Hop in  2000 whilst doing a prison sentence. However, he didn’t start taking it seriously until his good friend  Felony introduced his to his cousins, Real Gees. It was at the Real Gees studio where people started to take notice of him. He recorded eight tracks  at his first recording session.  Together with Real Gees, he went on to produce 2004’s Pedal Bike  Diaries. He went on to appear on the Hottest Mixtape of 2006, Mashtowns S.P.O.R.T.S. VOL 1. That further solidified his name as a promising lyricist. After a few collaborations with some local artists he received another prison sentence. He was released in September 2007 and  immediately got to work with his cousin Red. He recorded his second Mixtape, Business As Usual. He released the Business As Usual  just before Christmas 2007. It is currently in stores across London. Joe Black released Certified on the 1st of September 2008 in conjunction with Ruthless Recordz. That CD is available at Ruthless  Recordz and all other good record shops. 

Joe Black went on to release another Mixtape King of the Underground in February 2010 and has since performed with some of the  biggest names in the music scene right now (Rick Ross, Giggs, K Koke, Benny Banks, Hunt, Squeeks and Propane). He recently releaed the very well received mixtape project 'Realionaire.'

- Preditah has become a household name within the UK music scene and beyond for his cutting edge music productions, scoping from Garage through to House and the list continues on. He started out producing for local talent in his hometown Birmingham, UK and built his sound through self-taught production skills in his bedroom as a young teenager. Advancing through life, he decided to head to college to learn in depth music theory to add to his natural music talent. Whilst at University he had the big break he was hoping for when (Boy Better Know CEO) JME picked up on one of his Grime instrumentals titled (The Big Wok). He would often say to this day that it was that moment that started the hype to his career. He went on putting out a few EP’s with Logan Sama’s (Earth616) label and cemented his sound within the Grime scene. Producing countless amounts of tracks for the likes of Roll Deep, Boy Better Know plus many others, he was reaping all of the benefits from the groundwork he did within his hometown Birmingham. His career took another advance when he started DJ-ing across the country. He not only was getting insane crowd responses from his live mixing and blending but also had major co-signs from the likes of DJ EZ, David Rodigan & more! Whilst that was happening on the front end he was still in the studio putting out Official remixes for the likes of Disclosure, Gorgon City and Chase & Status just to name a few. He was bringing a fresh new take on said remixes that we’re predominately Garage and House which gave him respect from legends in the scene like Wookie. In 2017 life took a major turn when he collaborated with Jorja Smith on the Garage classic ‘On My Mind’ which gave him another advance in his career. He went on to sign a deal with Atlantic Records in 2018 and continued working on records with artists and song-writers that we’re on their roster. In 2019 he produced alongside Fred Again a top 10 charting record for Mist & Fredo titled So High’ and gained even more credibility within the UK music scene. 2021 he decided to go down the independent route and launched his own label ‘Dats Right Radio’ due to the shift of normality after Lockdown and has started putting out music he really wants to release without any limitation from A&R’s and managers. Now in his 30’s he recently stated that he will be pushing his musical vision further whilst still putting out music he loved on a regular bases.

Welcome to my sound cloud

My name is Marco Gerssen from Amsterdam.

My pasion for house music started late 80's by listening to Hip house, Chicago Soulful, Club house.

I decided to spin the records after listening to live DJ sets on the Dutch radio from FTWLTG, early nineties.

I played on different locations through the Netherlands, this was mostly club, groovy, soulful deep and some tech house.

Very often I use former influences like Disco, Jazz, Latin, Tribal and Electro. In my opinion this gives a pure and recognizable shape to deep house mixes.

My motivation is to use and combine different genres and elements and bringing all that in one creation (house is a feeling).

Inspired by. : Jihad Muhammad, Larry Heard, Timmy Regisford, Louis Vega, Adam rios, Kevin Saunderson, Frankie Knuckles, Glenn Underground, Rick Wade, Anthony Nicholson,  Murk records, Todd Terry, Osunlade, Joey Negro, Justin Imperiale, Iwan Musiq, Pete Blaker, Michel de Hey, Dimitri Kneppers, Ian pooley, Prince, Jamiroquai, Eurythmics and many many more.
