When there are so many different sounds and techniques at one’s disposal, it’s a waste to repeat what’s already done. That notion is embedded deeply into the core of NO ART, the label by ANOTR. Instead, the imprint is colored by innovation and focuses on a sound that’s edgy.

OWLS presents a musical art form characterized by dark, seductive tones, capable of transporting listeners to unique and captivating realms. This musical project is dedicated to evoking profound emotional experiences through sound.

"I came to music because I felt it intensely. And that's exactly what I want my music to convey to you - to make you feel it in every moment. My goal is for you to not just hear my music, but to truly experience it with your entire being."

This approach to music creation is based on the belief that true music has the power to transcend the boundaries of sound and touch the human heart on a deep emotional level. OWLS creates a soundscape that allows listeners to escape into a world filled with mysterious and passionate tones that resonate long after the last note has faded.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

An individual firmly at the heart of The Netherlands’ current electronic landscape, Amsterdam-based DJ and producer Toman is an artist whose stock and stature continue to rise as one of the scene’s most-loved emerging acts. A surging name in recent years, with releases via a host of leading labels and appearances across the globe, his musical journey combines unrivalled work ethic with innate musical talent to showcase exactly why he’s an artist in such heavy worldwide demand.

His debut EP on Mihai Popoviciu’s Cyclic (2017) welcomed a first insight into his studio ability. Since then, he’s taken off with EP’s on Cuttin’ Headz, Moscow, Eastenderz and No Art – the label where Toman features as the A&R. In this role he is also one of the driving forces behind the vinyl-only sub-imprint No Art Red, with his reputation and influence growing as a figure pushing the modern signature ‘Amsterdam Sound’ worldwide alongside close friends and regular studio partners, Chris Stussy and ANOTR.

A talented drummer since his early years, a return to his roots via electronic drum kits within his work has further strengthened his unique sound, building on minimalistic, rolling arrangements to create house music that nods to the golden era of UK tech house. Combining deep grooves amongst hypnotising sonics, his no-nonsense outlook delivers productions perfect for any occasion; from the warm-up to peak time, clubs or festivals, all the way through to the afters and early hours.

The result? His position as Beatport’s best selling Minimal/Deep Tech artist of all time, delivering seven #1’s on the platform across four different labels while gaining support from Raresh, The Martinez Brothers, Joseph Capriati, Enzo Siragusa, Stacey Pullen, Phil Weeks, Franck Roger and Terry Francis to name just a few.

Add in global appearances from Amsterdam to Buenos Aires, Berlin to Montevideo, London to Sydney, manning the decks at Watergate, fabric, Awakenings and S.A.S.H. alongside regular outings at Amsterdam’s most-renowned establishments, and it’s clear to see just why the Dutch talent is on such a steep trajectory… And yet, he’s still only just getting started.

Like any story, Makèz's music carries multiple layers. Their recent projects reveal an approach that challenges listeners to listen beyond surface-level expectations. Inspired by artists who defy easy categorization -like Slum Village, Masters at Work, Moodymann and Theo Parrish- they create music that finds beauty in nuance. Each track becomes an invitation: a moment to explore, to feel, and connect.

The duo found each other in their early high school days, through a shared love for house music. They’ve spent over 15 years translating their taste and vision into music that lives somewhere between underground club grooves and songs that resonate beyond the dance floor. Drawing from the rich textures of hip hop, jazz, and disco, they craft electronic music that feels both familiar and fresh—a bridge between nostalgic rhythms and contemporary production.

Their journey from teenage music enthusiasts to international artists, is a narrative of organic growth and musical intuition. After moving to Amsterdam, they immersed themselves in the city's nightlife, transforming their youthful musical curiosity into a professional pursuit that would reach dance floors across the globe. The two developed an almost telepathic connection—complementing each other's strengths both on stage and in the studio. Their differences aren't obstacles, but the very source of their creative language.

Makèz’s discography has been marked by releases on labels like Heist, No Art, Balance Recordings, and Classic Music Company. However, 2023 marked their definitive international breakthrough with "Downstream ft. Life On Planets" as summer's most sought-after track ID.
