The Belgrade-based talent takes care to convey real emotion in his melodies and power in his rhythms. His meticulous approach both in the DJ booth and the studio results in sounds that move people in many different ways. For this reason and after many years of work, he has gone from being a secret Serbian talent to someone now making his mark on the world stage with fans like Paul Kalkbrenner, Carl Cox and Chris Liebig.

Djokovic has proven his international credentials over the last decade-plus with releases on high-profile labels like Drumcode, Filth on Acid and Armada. He reached overall Number 1 on the Beatport techno chart with the mighty 'Atom,' which also made Ilija one of the genre's best-selling artists of the year. 

That track was something of a breakout moment that got high-profile support from the likes of Maceo Plex, and further successes have followed on Second State and Terminal M. More melodic tracks like 'Vega' on Armada Records and 'Equilibrium' on Drumcode showed a different side to this vital artist. The latter was one of the most requested IDs of Adam Beyer's DJ sets at the time: it paired driving drum programming with the sort of mind-expanding synth work that takes dancers to another level.

While remaining true to his mysterious and atmospheric signature sound, Djokovic is always evolving as proven with an explosive outing on Reinier Zonneveld's cult Filth on Acid label. It featured tripped-outbangers that fuse 
 spine-tingling chords with hypnotic beats, as do his DJ sets, which have taken him to world-class clubs and festivals like UNTOLD, Watergate, Exit's Dance Arena, Lovefest, Echowaves, EGG London, De Marktkantine and more. 

As Djokovic continues to climb ever-higher Beatport's Techno Top 100 and prepares to launch his Point Beyond label with a big first release featuring a Flug remix, he is now one of the most essential voices in the contemporary techno conversation.

The Budapest based techno duo, SveTec & Nils, has taken a long journey until their current alias as Steam Shape. Both of them coming from a musical background, they turned from the piano to the decks quite early in 2003. Their obsession to the electronic music scene was increasing from the first time as they experienced its true spirit.

They started their joint venture in the year 2005, when they decided to launch an event series, which would give them the possibility to express their musical vision on a regular basis. During the years their passion and talent emerged into one cohesive musical project in which they could play together several times.

In 2007 they decided to experience different musical pathways. In this important term both of them gained success of their own goals as they played in the most important and determining venues in Hungary and abroad as well. Their contribution to the local scene was always remarkable, which was an important part in order to rebuild its strong basis.

Although their sound has continuously evolved during their career, they always remained true to their roots. As a result, they found the year 2012 a perfect timing to reunion and set in a long lasting new venture, where they can apply all of their practical experiences that shaped them.

Through some productive studio sessions, in 2014 they prepared their new sounding tracks, which have received promising feedbacks from all across the scene. In the same year they released their first EP, called ‘Boundless’ on Driving Forces Recordings.

In their DJ sets they are aiming extraordinary performance with 4 CDJs, 2 mixers and loads of external gadgets in order to provide their unique dynamics and powerful sounding. Their style was influenced by techno from the beginnings. They keep up with the newest changes but at the meantime their music retains their original style. As the result of professional precision, strict selection and sorting, and vigorous dynamics there is a unique sound of their mixes.
