There's only one obvious thing in the sound of Neelix: Relentless forward boost. Exactly how this boost is generated is not obvious at all – which makes it catchy in the most subliminal way possible. The German artist playfully incorporates elements of Progressive Trance, Progressive House and Electro. However, the actual magic of Neelix happens somewhere inbetween those genres. For 10 years already this unique formula made him a crowd-pleaser at a great variety of dance events on all 5 continents, including monumental festivals like Electric Daisy Carnival, Tomorrowland or Boom.

It's 2005 when Neelix stirs a revolution. His album 'No Way To Leave' fulfills all the expectations of the dance floor – but it does so in the most unexpected way. Within no time, party goers refer to his highly dynamic hybrid style simply as 'Neelix sound'. It's the beginning of a stellar career that keeps building and building – just like a typical Neelix track itself. During the last decade, the music of Neelix has inspired a whole generation of producers, it can be found in the collections of countless DJ, in film productions, and in the catalogues of prestigious labels like for instance SpinTwist Records or Paul Oakenfold’s legendary Perfecto imprint.

Portuguese Bio: 

A banda mineira Funky Fat produz uma contagiante combinação de house music com ingredientes do indie-rock. Como o nome da banda entrega, o ritmo é cheio de groove e se beneficia das características pulsantes entregues pelas linhas de baixo. Tal receita sonora pode ser conferida na faixa “Ride the City”, sucesso das pistas lançado pelo selo Outcross Records, de Miguel Campbell. Fora isso, Thiago Guimarães, Gui Santoro e Manu d’Alcântara vêm mostrando seu talento como no EP Masochist e tambem, na música “Fat Noise”, colaboração com Anderson Noise.

Já o EP autoral Jealousy, bancado pela Hot Creations, os apresentou ao cenário mundial em 2013, indo parar direto nos cases de grandes DJs, como Solomun, Jamie Jones, Lee Foss, Sasha, Joris, Voorn, Claude VonStroke, Phonique e M.A.N.D.Y. O som meio anos 1980, meio punk, meio funky conquistou logo de cara o interesse de Jamie Jones, dono do selo, que estava de passagem pela capital mineira para uma apresentação na cidade. 

As influências do grupo passam por nomes como Daft Punk, Strokes eThe Knife. Depois de serem apontados como uma das revelações vindas do Brasil pela DJ Mag inglesa, as músicas do Funky Fat têm sido uma constante na programação de diversas rádios europeias dedicadas à promoção da dance music, a exemplo da BBC1, BBC6, Ministry Radio e a Ibiza Global Radio.
