deep house

Tony Lionni

Born Liverpool England 36 years ago. Gained an interest in music of black origin through my father who bought and occasionally dj´d....soul-disco and jazzfunk records and took me diggin for records with him from the age of about 8 years old in liverpool. First records at the age of about 7 were Say it loud black and proud by James Brown, War of the worlds and probably a stevie wonder album. Started diggin in the racks of my fathers records at the age of 14 around 85 when Hip hop was popular looking for breaks and taking regular trips to manchester Spin Inn records...

Him_Self_Her

House music with Feeling….
Few electronic artists have experienced such a meteoric rise into the spotlight, as male/female production duo Leon Baggotts & Claire Spooner, AKA Him_Self_Her.
The pair had clocked up almost ten years of hard graft as solo artists; DJing in sweaty back rooms, plastering Leicester city centre with posters and struggling against a tired Midlands club scene, before they made the life changing decision to work together.

Onno

Here we go: Dj, Producer and allround nice guy ONNO (24/01/1983) can be seen as one of todays most promising Dutch DJs and producers. He made his first mark in the dance scene by becoming the youngest ever resident of the notorious Amsterdam based clubnight Chemistry in 2001. A pretty decent playground for a 19 year old we must say. A few years later his production career took off in collaboration with Rocco Mundo.

Soul Avengerz

Paul Gardner and Wayne OConnell are no newcomers to the industry, being an integral part of the London house scene for over a decade now. But it is only recently that the guys have garnered the long overdue, and much deserved, worldwide recognition they have been striving for. In todays climate most artists carve out a production profile before proving themselves as DJ’s. It is this that often leads to most artists productions being more dance floor orientated the more experienced they become, as they gain that all important first hand knowledge of what it takes to rock a packed dance floor.
