I dip in and out of London's electronic scene, piecing together sounds that some might loosely categorise as deep house with a bit of whatever else catches my fancy.
Seem to have this thing for blending nostalgic bits into contemporary frameworks. Makes for decent tunes for late-night city wanderings or those sunrise moments at afters though I realise how naff that sounds.
Can't quite stick to one genre, not because I'm trying to be clever, just chronically indecisive house chords meet techno-ish percussion with a focus on keeping things moving. Hoping it comes across as somewhat timeless yet current, but who knows.

John Meva, also known as Maicel Kiel, hails from Duisburg, Germany, where he was born in 1980. He is a rising artist who doesn't like to be put in a specific genre box. However, he enjoys creating music with a harder edge, combining elements of trance with techno and psy, as well with atmospheric and melodic elements to create a unique sound that is entirely his own.

His tracks have been released on big labels, including Dreamstate and Nocturnal Knights Music. He has garnered support from some of the biggest names in the industry, including Armin van Buuren on his A State of Trance radio show, Alex M.O.R.P.H., RAM, Woody van Eyden, Bryan Kearney, Scot Project, Aly & Fila and Andrew Rayel and many more. 

He has gone on to win the final round of the Bootshaus DJ Contest in Cologne in 2018, and has performed at Nature One since 2017. With credits in music production at SAE Cologne and Hofa GmbH, he is a self-educated artist dedicated to creating unique and driving tracks that touch people’s emotions.

Nicky is a multi-genre producer with a core focus on house and techno, mixed with elements of electro, Latin jazz, reggae, drum and bass, and hip-hop.

Profile: DJ Cat 

Neil Catlow AKA DJ Cat is a self-taught DJ specialising in Old Skool, Nu Disco and 1980’s Disco. 

Neil rapidly transitioned from a ‘Bedroom DJ’ to playing live gigs, on-line Radio and organising his own events: 

Gigs: 
Vestry, Chorley 
Asylum, Standish 
Golden Lion, Todmorden
Brom Fest, Wigan

Radio: 
Euphoria (Mexico) 
Beyond Radio
Ultimate Dance Radio 

Events: 
Welcome to Our House - Mix Factor (Electric Circus, Burnley)
Welcome to Our House - Featuring Anne Savage (Hidden, Burnley)
Welcome to Our House - Old Skool (Smoke (Blue Note), Todmorden) 
Welcome to Our House - 80’s Night featuring ‘Mad About Madonna', ‘The Lomax Brothers’ and hosted by Antonella Bollini (Hidden, Burnley)
Charity Event (Derian House Childrens Hospice) - 80’s Night, hosted by Steve Berry (St Marys Chambers, Rawtenstall) 
Welcome to Our House - Mix Factor - (White Bull, Crawshawbooth)

It quickly became apparent to Neil that there are numerous barriers to a new DJ trying to break into the DJ market - despite plenty of ‘talk’, actual opportunities remained few. 

Undeterred, Neil grabbed the bull by the horns; he decided to organise his own gig. Focussed on engaging and supporting fellow burgeoning DJ’s - The Mix Factor was born! 

This successful event was followed by the ‘Mix Factor’ prize - the opportunity to play at Neil's second gig, headlined by none other than Anne Savage! 

Neil has battled an additional barrier; paralysed 17 years ago in a Motocross accident, his wheelchair has often put potential clients off; this looks like too much hard work and hassle. It is disappointing that disability still engenders this reaction. But fear not - Neil has a slew of friends and family poised to ‘Roadie’ for him. All he requires from you is the space to set up his adapted DJ booth. His ‘Roadies’ and Neil will do the rest. 

No venue who has taken a chance on Neil has been disappointed - all have invited him back. 

If you want banging tunes from a dedicated and reliable DJ then DJ Cat is your man!!
