    their own biography

    the whole biography
    Nic Fanciulli is a DJ, producer and label owner who has remained one of the UK’s finest exports in electronic music throughout the last decade. One of the last DJs to break through to international acclaim on the strength of his DJ’ing alone, Nic has since gone on to establish his own imprint, Saved Records, a label that remains proudly at the forefront of electronic music today. An important purveyor of international, underground house and techno, Saved has become a global brand, renowned for cutting-edge releases and standout events around the globe. In early 2014 Saved celebrated their 100th release. No easy achievement in the modern climate, which was marked by a special release and tour, delivering a mixture of the biggest names in dance music alongside a selection of the hottest emerging talent around – highlighting the ethos that the label has always stayed true to throughout the years. A Grammy-nominated producer in his own right, Nic has worked with artists as diverse as Underworld, Kylie Minogue, U.N.K.L.E, Loco Dice, Josh Wink Hot Natured, and Tracey Thorn. He’s also produced a plethora of solo tracks that have received huge critical acclaim in addition to unleashing a heady collection of memorable remixes, including his recent rework of Hot Natured’s ‘Benediction’. Nic is responsible for a high output of a sleek, intelligent yet driving strain of house and techno, and is famed for his compilation CDs, having completed mixes for Renaissance, Global Underground, Balance, and most recently Defected’s In The House series in 2014. Despite becoming a household name in his early twenties, Nic has always maintained a humble and down to earth approach throughout his career. Bearing a strong connection to his hometown of Maidstone and its people, Nic has been staging stellar events there throughout his whole career, perhaps none so proudly as when unveiling his own bespoke festival, The Social in summer 2013. But it is his genuine and unreserved love for the scene and bringing through new talent that has given Nic the longevity to remain at the top for so long. www.nicfanciulli.com ::: www.savedrecords.com ::: www.thesocialfestival.com

    the whole biography
    Andrew Phillips aka Bontan is a Liverpool, UK born and raised DJ/ Producer that has become one of the biggest ever selling artists on Beatport voted Radio 1 Future Star, received a Best Newcomer trophy at the DJ Awards, achieved multiple Beatport #1s and has an Essential Mix and Coachella play
under his belt too. After a string of early releases, a coming together with Josh Butler resulted in
‘Call You Back’
,
which came out on
Origins Records.
It would climb the Beatport charts and provide Bontan with his second overall #1 record -
a stand out release for both artists. He swiftly
followed up with his debut on Hot
Creations,
with his
‘First Time EP’
being premiered by Pete Tong on BBC
Radio 1 and was supported by all of the heavyweight dance music
publications. It went on to receive over 300 radio plays worldwide and
streamed millions of
times.
 The First Time became Hot Creations biggest selling record of the year and made Bontan the highest selling artist on Beatport across all genres for the same period, laying the foundations for a defining year for the young artist.
 Leaning more to a slight change in direction in his production with organic
percussion and smooth melodies, a fresh take on Bontan's sound was born.
A
Radio 1 Essential Mix
imminently followed and Bontan’s international touring
schedule took off, exposing himself to new fans Worldwide, and scaling the heights of dance music while allowing his sound to migrate and progress into
a more refined and signature Bontan sound.
 Coachella
came knocking and
soon after
a release on one of the hottest
labels around,
NO ART, thrust the artist onto a trajectory that knows no bounds.
2023 has seen a Bontan resurgence
and
his new,
organic drum
-
driven take on house music
has
spurred on
well
-deserved
praise from peers
and fans alike,
attracting a demand for fresh music and his selections on the
dance floor.
    Their RA profile lists Defected Records, Cajual Records, Crosstown Rebels, Suara and 3 more.
