    the whole biography
    Drawing tangible inspiration from the early 2000s hard techno & groove hiatus, Evan Marshall’s artistry continues to blossom as time goes on. Having exposed himself to electronic music at barely 10 years old by ‘borrowing’ his older brother’s discs, a young Alt8 (as he would later become known) was set onto the musical pathway at the conclusion of his formative years. After witnessing his older brother performing at an event just a few years later, he began cutting his teeth playing a mixture of hip hop & dance music throughout Ireland. His taste for a myriad of genres mean that his DJing stylings incorporate multiple sectors of music, mixing between ‘moments’ as opposed to just ‘music’. On a given day, anyone who will see him perform can expect a collection of industrial, groove, rave or big melodies - all fused with distinct hard techno drums to create a uniquely memorable atmosphere. It goes without saying that Alt8 is a representation of musical diversity - and it’s something that definitively sets him apart from those around him. Whilst DJing remained a distinct passion of his, he eventually began to make his own productions in 2019 following an awakening to the vibrancy of the techno genre, drawing influence from old school hard techno when devising drum sequences. That isn’t to say that melodies are left out in the cold; rather they are delicately paired with the harder, industrial elements in certain tracks - as can be seen most prominently on his ‘Hope in Darkness’ EP on Manchester’s ‘Moments In Time’ imprint that reached #1 on Beatport’s hard techno chart. With many releases to his name already, some key highlights include his debut EP in 2020 on T-Minus Records (featuring a remix from Sara Landry), a remix he produced for techno titan Rebekah that was played by some of the scene’s most respected names, and his ‘Nineninefour’ track that released on Belgium’s ‘Rave Alert’. It was however his marked growth in 2021 that really has elevated Alt8 to the next stage of his career; a year that culminated in him releasing ‘Mind Control’ on DYEN’S ‘Reckless’ label. The high-octane, groovy thumper that whilst being a bit different to his usual productions, garnered the respect and support of the industry heavyweights. Prior to it being formally released, videos from select DJs playing the track who were lucky enough to have it begun circulating online - unsurprisingly, the ID requests were overwhelming to the point that it simply had to be released. Having utilised his recent years to fine tune his talents as both a producer and a DJ, it’s quite clear to those who know Alt8 that he’s firmly headed in the right direction as an artist. For those who haven’t yet gotten to know him, they certainly will soon.

    the whole biography
    Pawlowski, the French producer and DJ, has carved out a unique space in the techno scene by blending the raw energy of '90s raves with a futuristic vision, merging old-school synths and acid textures into an instantly recognizable sound. He first broke through in 2019 with Future Legacy, a track that immediately caught the attention of techno and neorave enthusiasts. In 2020, he solidified his reputation with Demonic Dimension, an underground anthem from the Possession project. Always pushing boundaries, he signed a publishing deal with the KNTXT label in 2023, releasing Final Outsider, an EP that marked a new artistic chapter. In October 2024, he returned with Back with Another One, a collaboration with Fenrick, further cementing his status as a forward-thinking artist. 2025 marked a turning point: After eight years of mystery behind his iconic scarf, Pawlowski revealed himself, ushering in a new era. His recent projects (Back with Another One, Donne-moi le Tempo, Get Me High) incorporate stronger trance and bouncy influences while retaining his signature acid sound and '90s rave heritage. This year also saw his collaboration with Byørn on La Temperatura, released on Tomorrowland’s label, solidifying his international presence. From the shadows to the spotlight, Pawlowski continues to rewrite his own legend, constantly reinventing his sound while staying true to his roots.
    Their RA profile lists Possession, Union Trance Mission and KNTXT.
