    the whole biography
    Renowned for powering the dancefloor with octane dynamism, Melé is an artist who fully warrants his current status as a revered selector and producer. Boasting a particular niche of sound that utilises a mesh of world music influenced house, transatlantic hip hop, broader UK sounds and classic Chicago grooves, the boy from the Wirral is gaining worldwide recognition by the minute. His catalogue thus far reaps a hotbed of anthemic music, from his two releases on Eats Everything Edible imprint, hotly acclaimed DJ Haus’ Unknown to the Unknown, his In The House compilation on the legendary Defected Records (following Loco Dice, Masters at Work and Nic Fanculli), ‘Ambience’ the carnival charged flex that not only kick started his prolific career but also undoubtedly spearheaded the tribal house movement and of course, his score of remixes and production efforts for the likes of Mabel, SG Lewis, George Morel, Ray Blk, Kano and Friendly Fires. In fact it was his mighty remix for Friendly Fires’ 'Heaven Let Me In' with which he ended a hugely prolific 2018. Last year saw Melé further prove his unique ability to don the perfect balance between party-fuelled plays and esteemed, underground sessions by headlining a veritable array of clubbing and festival hotspots including Gilles Peterson’s lauded Worldwide Festival to the legendary elrow in Barcelona. It was also the year that he took on multiple US tours playing the likes of EDC Vegas, CRSSD and Smart Bar, Chicago in his debut year. His colossal Club Bad brand consecutively sold out six shows, with guests like Jasper James, William Djoko, Mella Dee and DJ Boring all passing through. It was also the year that his Club Bad guise added a string to its bow, debuting a clothing range alongside UN:IK Clothing to much acclaim - both ranges sold out within days of dropping. This year however is already looking like it’ll surpass the last having already kicked things off with a huge landmark. Announcing his BBC Radio 1 Essential Mix to much acclaim, Melé joins a long esteemed list of DJs who have contributed to the seminal series. If that wasn’t enough, he also announced the launch of his anticipated Club Bad imprint. The label will debut with a two-track EP courtesy of Melé himself before dropping a string of releases from a veritable who’s who of exciting producers.
    Their RA profile lists Defected Records, Circus Recordings, Unknown to the Unknown, Lobster Boy and 1 more.

    the whole biography
    The Magic City is, in her own words, “the perfect place to be if you’re an emerging artist”, but few can compare to Amal’s rapid rise in Miami’s electronic scene. Despite only truly emerging in 2021, Amal has already released music on labels including Moon Harbour, Glasgow Underground, Nervous Records, Made in Miami, Farris Wheel and found her way into the top 100 of Beatport with instant hits such as ‘Shot Por Mi’, ‘Suavecito’ and ‘Amal’s Dream. With her charismatic personality and ability to make anyone spontaneously dance, Amal uses music to connect minds, bodies and souls. Her sound is tech house, driven by her love for pure percussion and musical idols including Damian Lazarus and The Martinez Brothers. Amal is an architect by trade and grew up as a computer hacker. She transfers these skills to music production, constructing songs in Ableton as if designing a building, and working at speed. “My creative process is visual. I see the structure of the song, and when I produce it’s like a game”, she says. “I go there and lose track of time.” It’s no wonder Amal is such a prolific artist, and her relentless productivity is set to continue in 2024, with a string of upcoming singles as well as dates on the festival circuit, including the Insomniac Records pool party in Miami. Amal means “hope” in Spanish, and her eternal optimism bleeds into her music. “I believe in our capacity to manifest all things”, she says. Her newly launched party Manifest, which debuted in Miami in January 2024, embodies this outlook on life, creating a space of escapism, hope, love, and above all, dance.
