    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Growing up in the midst of skating and hip-hop culture, he found his musical start as a beatmaker before eventually pivoting to electronic music. After discovering house music in particular, he became a dedicated student of the genre and used that to his advantage as he progressively made waves in his home country of Brazil, both as a meticulous producer and mesmerizing performer. In recent months, his presence has gone global as he’s embarked upon an expansive North American tour with multiple sold out dates in tow, dominated a laundry list of festivals internationally, done B2B sets with the likes of Vintage Culture, and is now headed toward a slot at the church, Circoloco this summer. With standout releases like “False Need” via Black Book alongside an exponentially growing fanbase with over 1 million followers, not to mention a smash forthcoming remix for The Martinez Brothers.
    Their RA profile lists Nervous Records, Black Book Records and Dtuned Records.

    “While the world’s online, Chloé Caillet’s in the club.”

    their own biography

    the whole biography
    While the world’s online, Chloé Caillet’s in the club. Her music and kaleidoscopic DJ sets recall  utopic rave histories of the past: dance factories, the Balearic bliss of the ‘90s; a time when  smartphones didn’t mediate the clubbing experience. Caillet’s music encourages your full  presence, your phone deep in your pocket. Within just a few years Caillet, a DJ, producer, multi‑instrumentalist, has become one of  dance’s most vitalizing forces. In 2024 alone she logged tens of thousands of miles playing sets  and curating global communities with SMIILE, her queer‑centered club night. From playing  B2Bs with Jamie xx to closing the terrace at Ibiza’s Circoloco with Kylie Minogue in attendance,  Chloé Caillet has become your favorite pop star’s DJ, your favorite DJ’s DJ, soon to be your  favorite, too. A musician first, Caillet brings her near‑perfect pitch to the decks. She mixes in key, thinks in  textures and tonalities—fifths, thirds—and instinctively knows the sounds that will mesh  together best. Always at least three steps ahead of the track, she creates fine musical details  within her sets, setting up perfect harmonies on the fly. Her layering is subtle, but if you lean  closer you her years of classical study; her background in improvisational jazz. Initially drawn to rock music, she played keys and bass in a small psychedelic outfit named The  Clockwork as a teenager in Paris. Throughout her adolescence she performed in an array of  blues, garage and alternative rock bands across Paris and London before ending up in the  dance music space during Ed Banger’s most prolific era. By the time she moved to New York  City in her early twenties, LCD Soundsystem and DFA Records had overtaken the scene with  their dance‑rock revival, inspiring Caillet to carry over her prog credentials into her first DJ sets.  Initially drawn to production through her background in A&R, she quickly became a sensation  in the NYC dance music scene, playing and creating rock‑embellished electo reminiscent of  Greg Wilson’s early mixtapes, and later inspiring Beck to personally commission her for a remix  of his track “Chemical” in 2021. As her star began to rise further, Caillet gradually moved away  from her proggy roots and towards groove‑heavy house. “But I’ve definitely been feeling a pull  back to my roots lately,” says Caillet.

    the whole biography
    Ben Sterling (Planet X) UK favorite Ben Sterling is an artist on the brink of a major breakout, transcending the 'rising act' label that followed him throughout his early career and coming into his own as an internationally renowned name in his own right. Hailing from London, Ben has quickly established himself as one of the most exciting and versatile names in the electronic circuit. As the label boss at Planet X, Ben is not only shaping his own take on contemporary house music but also crafting a unique identity that resonates on a global scale. With a string of impressive early releases via leading labels, 2022 marked a pivotal year in Ben's career, with his electrifying remix of Tiga's iconic 'Mind Dimension' propelling him to the forefront of the international scene. The remix quickly became one of the most celebrated records of the year, solidifying his reputation as a creative force in the industry, and serving as a testament to Ben's ability to blend innovation with his deep-seated roots in the UK's vibrant electronic scene. Ben's production work has reached new heights over recent years, with releases on iconic labels like Diynamic and Crosstown Rebels, while maintaining a strong connection to the UK. His material on legendary imprints such as Bushwacka!'s OBLONG and current powerhouses such as Solid Grooves demonstrate his commitment to honoring the foundational sounds that have shaped him. His early influences, including the seminal tech house sounds of Housey Doingz and pioneers such as Terry Francis and Nathan Coles, and the dynamic world of electro-dance music, continue to inform his evolving style. In addition to his production success, Ben's Planet X record label and event series have become cornerstones of his artistic vision. With future evolutions of the events in the works, leaning towards conceptual experiences, the project reflects Ben's forward-thinking approach to music and live performances, while honoring the white label and edits ecosystem with his sub-imprint, X-Files. A regular fixture in Ibiza's elite club circuit, Ben has become a mainstay at events like Solid Grooves, Paradise, and Music On. His ability to adapt and thrive in diverse musical environments has seen him share the decks with a wealth of industry heavyweights, showcasing his ever-increasing versatility as a DJ. Characterized by his passion for record digging, ensuring that his performances are always fresh, his sets remain rooted in a deep understanding of dance music history. A regular at the likes of Club Space and DC10, Ben's presence extends beyond the club scene to some of the world's leading festivals, including Coachella, Sunwaves, EDC Las Vegas and Baum Festival, to name a few. As Ben continues to push the boundaries of his sound and expand his influence, he is undoubtedly an artist on the cusp of something big. With a keen eye on the future and a firm grasp on his heritage, the UK favorite looks set to leave an indelible mark on the electronic music landscape, while furthering his reputation as a global player on his own path.
