    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Gabbs is an Italian DJ driven by a raw passion for electronic music. His sets hit hard but stay controlled; always locked into the room, the system, the crowd. No masks, no noise. Just instinct, selection, and a deep understanding of how to move people and leave them with a real experience.Whether it’s a dark basement or a sunrise stage, Gabbs brings intensity, versatility, and a sound that’s grounded, precise, and always in motion. His name continues to rise across international scenes not because of hype, but because the music speaks for itself.

    the whole biography
    Spending the last 12 years mixing and digging for peculiar electronica, his talent and dedication soon brought him the residency in the capital’s last real underground sanctuaries – the beloved Zoo club and K4, where he soon took on the initiative and started doing bookings as well, inviting and playing alongside the likes of Francesco del Garda, Sonja Monear, Raresh, Onur Özer, Binh, Etienne, Nicolas Lutz, Daniel Bell and others... Drawing inspiration from virtually all facets of early electronica, Mayell creates his very own distinctive tapestry of sound, resulting in eclectic and quirky DJ sets, ever fresh but always recognizable; if you’ve heard him once, you will always know he has taken over the DJ booth, without looking in its direction. His exhilarating energy and contagious enthusiasm for music have the power to draw even the laziest of dancers to the floor with their hands in the air and smiles on their faces. It seems that all he really wants to do is make people happy with his presence and his music, and he does it extremely well. His latest ventures include immersing himself deeper into music production and starting a new club night and a label under the name of LuckIsOn. With one collaboration EP already released on Kanzyani’s Jesus Loved You label, the first four LuckIsOn EPs out, One VA on Pager Records and the forthcoming release on Traffic records it is absolutely certain that you will hear more of this Slovenian hidden treasure in the near future!
    Their RA profile lists Jesus Loved You, Traffic and Pager Records.

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Thabo, a stalwart of Berlin's underground circuit, has steadily ascended to a revered status as a promoter, accomplished DJ, and prolific producer in recent years. A true Berliner, he's synonymous with the soulful yet infectious strains of house that he passionately champions both behind the decks and in the studio. Thabo's roots lie in the sounds of hip hop and dancehall, a facet of his musical upbringing that continues to permeate his productions with a distinct flavor. His voyage into electronic music, circa the early 2000s, saw the German artist plunge headfirst into the city's pulsating dance music milieu. Before long, he was orchestrating his inaugural raves at esteemed Berlin venues like Cookies and Tape Club. After years dedicated to honing his craft and finding his groove, Thabo's DJ career took off, earning him slots at nearly every renowned Berlin club and eventually expanding his reach to international stages. Beyond his prowess behind the turntables, Thabo is a prolific studio wizard. Formerly operating under a different alias, he garnered accolades from heavyweights in the industry, including the likes of Carl Craig, Laurent Garnier, Cinthie, LTJ Bukem, and Jovonn. However, Thabo was always destined for more, driven by the vision of curating his own musical odyssey. In 2016, he unveiled "home again," an embodiment of a decade's worth of promoter experience crystallized into the quintessential house party. Featuring an eclectic roster of over 200 artists such as Gabrielle Kwarteng, Satoshi Tomiie, Leon Vynehall, Apollonia, and Palms Trax, this concept transcended mere party status, evolving into a multifaceted platform. It now encompasses a record label, fashion outlet, festival, and a dynamic creative hub dedicated to the house music community. Thabo's residencies at HÖR and Refuge Worldwide, along with his exclusive mix series on Apple Music, have cemented his role as a torchbearer of the Berlin 'House' sound. With an exciting array of releases on the horizon, Thabo remains steadfast in his mission to keep dance floors pulsating with his uplifting house sounds for years to come, solidifying his position as an indispensable figure within Berlin's electronic music landscape.

    Velly NYC-born, globally tuned. A sonic architect blending gritty house, tough-edged techno, and raw street soul with a refined touch of European minimalism. Two decades deep, countless transatlantic sessions, and an unshakable presence on the decks. Relentless, unmistakable, essential.
