Mehdi Remadi is a musician and DJ based between London and Paris. While progressive, deep and melodic house form the cornerstones of his genre, his background as a drummer and longtime interest in instrumental music (particularly rock, metal, jazz, classical and oriental music) guide him to go beyond these boundaries and perform sets with a wider and more diverse musical touch.

Mehdi had the opportunity to share the sounds he curates in major venues / clubs including London-based Loft Studios, Cuckoo and Raffles and Paris-based Badaboom and Mirage, and established events organised by Do Not Sit On The Furniture, Flying Circus, London-based Unleash and Paris-based Horde and Azurite.

For any DJ and bedroom producer, the ability to “hustle” is often the most underestimated, yet most important factor in determining whether they will fade out or successfully make their mark on the industry. Good hustle is the epitome of both the man and monumental career of international DJ, Roger Sanchez. From humble beginnings in New York City, diggin’ in dusty crates of old vinyl and spinning at house parties in Corona, Queens, to dominating huge dance floors and headlining festival main-stages in every corner of the globe, Roger is truly a self-made man and a house music legend.

The crafting of Roger Sanchez, the DJ, started in the late 80s, where as a young man he was enticed by the explosion of hip-hop that was taking over the city. Embracing the culture as a b-boy and graffiti artist, he would hit parties on the Bronx River and before long, his friends had him trying his hand on the wheels of steel. In a time and place where hip hop, house music, and “turntablism” all collided in a perfect storm of creativity, opportunity, and sick beats, Roger seized his moment and began to build his empire on vinyl and slip mats, starting with a few singles and expanding into a massive collection of over two thousand original productions and remixes.
Releasing music under a multitude of monikers, including the S-Man, Roger S., The Nu- Solution, Underground Solution, DV8, Ego Trip, El Mariachi, The Funkjunkeez, Tribal Infusion, Twilight, and Transatlantic Soul, just to name a few, Roger has been able to maintain the essence of his sound, his flavor, his “sabor”, if you will, while still using each alter ego as a tool to expand on various fresh and experimental sounds. Each one of his multiple music personas have allowed him the opportunity to defy the mainstream and travel out to the far reaches of the musical galaxy, collecting depth, wisdom, and perspective along the way and applying them to his future endeavors in innovative dance music sounds, allowing him to remain fluid and cutting edge across decades.

So many successful endeavors would have never been possible without a rock solid work ethic, something that Roger prides himself on. From the very beginning, he was a dedicated crate digger, searching for obscure samples and break beats in influential NYC record stores like Rock & Soul and Vinylmania. His infallible work ethic, paired with the strong foundation of art and culture that he gained from the Pratt Institute’s School of Architecture took control of the wheel as his passion for music expanded, driving him to start hustling mixtapes on the sidewalks of Broadway in order to finance his earliest gigs. With the encouragement of his father, an engineer, Roger abandoned his plans for a career in architecture and decided to devote all his efforts to his music.

Giselle Isabel Navas from a small town just outside of Oslo, Norway always had a huge passion for music.

She started pursuing her passion in 1998 when she was 18 years old, and learned to mix with turntables. 
Later the turntables got put aside and she hardly did any mixing for a few years. 
But she could never put it behind her completely, and getting started again was almost always on her mind.
A few years ago she decided to give her passion another go, and got herself a couple of decks.

She has her own unique sound with Progressive, Tribal & Dark Progressive which makes each set so special.

Strongly influenced by Dave Seaman, John Digweed, Sandra Collins, Anthony Pappa, & Sasha to name a few. 

In the time since she got back into mixing again, Giselle's sets has been featured on many Internet Radio shows all over the world like Innervisions Radio UK, Frisky Radio, Proton, DI.fm, Chris Domingo`s Sunday Dip, & MCast where she got her own monthly slot.

2014 promises to be eventful and exciting for Giselle with her show "Beneath The Surface", plus other guest spots and club bookings.
