Deep house, minimal grooves, and breaks with plenty of energy and good vibes. Franqy was fortunate enough to have a sound upbringing in the late 90s, listening to techno and house music played by DJs such as Carl Cox, Mr. C., Jeff Mills, Laurent Garnier, and Derrick Carter. This education shaped his taste and much of the music played in his sets. As a warm-up DJ, he has played and hosted parties alongside Darius Syrossian, Matthias Tanzmann, Paul Woolford, Terry Francis, Nathan Coles, Josh Butler, Audiojack, Denney, Miguel Campbell, Max Grief, and PBR Streetgang. Before residing in Greece, he regularly supported headliners at renowned clubbing institutions around the UK, including; Ministry of Sound, Sankeys, Back II Basics, Distrikt Bar, and Kaluki. In Greece, he's supported at Lab Art, BSide, El Chapo, Rekviem, Nova FM & Paranoise Radio.
 
With an upcoming EP signed to Venice label Kina Music & Hollowax in Melbourne, some exciting releases are coming out soon. Plus, previous releases with Hollow Lab, Midnight Social Recordings, 124 Recordings, and Deepwit Recordings.

Every artist leaves a mark, and Mihai Popoviciu’s is unmistakable. For almost two decades, the Romanian producer and DJ has crafted a signature style—deep, hypnotic grooves, pinpoint precision, and an energy that commands the dancefloor.
Growing up in Sibiu (Romania), a city far removed from Europe’s electronic epicenters, Mihai’s passion for house and techno was born in isolation. The ‘90s saw London, Berlin, and Ibiza booming with dance music, while he was left scavenging for whatever sounds he could find. “We’d record German TV shows onto cassette and play them on repeat,” he recalls.

With no club scene in sight, Mihai’s DJ dreams seemed like a long shot. “I couldn’t DJ because there were no clubs,” he laughs. But software was within reach, so he made music. Refining his sound track after track, in 2005, his music found a home on International Deejay Gigolo. From there, he became a fixture on labels like Highgrade, Poker Flat, Bondage Music, Berg Audio, and his own imprint, Cyclic, founded in 2012.

Patience and persistence paid off. Once purely a producer, Mihai soon stepped behind the decks, learning the art of DJing on borrowed turntables. His transition from the studio to the club was seamless. Soon, the world took notice. Over the past decade, Mihai Popoviciu has solidified his status as a leading figure in the electronic music scene. Now, his name graces the lineups of the most revered clubs and festivals worldwide.

Mihai’s mission is simple: to share the joy and energy that fuel his passion. “Seeing people dance, smile, and lose themselves in the music—that’s what it’s all about.”

Whether commanding an underground club or a festival stage, Mihai’s sound remains unmistakable. “He had it from the start,” says friend and agent Benny Grauer. “You always know when it’s Mihai. And it’s always on point.”

Dive Deeper!
Hailing from the greater Frankfurt Area Sascha Dive has made quite an impression on the international house and techno circus over the last ten years. Although the deephouse traveller looks back on an amazing amount of pristine releases, with the first official vinyl pressed back in 2007, one can still call him a young gun. If you look around in the deeper fields of house music these days this gifted producer and DJ seems to be an exception. This isn't a disadvantage at all because with all the energy in his mind and hands Sascha Dive proves with every gig and production that he plays on the same level as many of his legends, if not even higher!

 

Strongly influenced by the godfathers of deephouse like Moodyman, Chez Damier or Ron Trent and following the first waves of top notch German house labels, such as Playhouse, Sascha Dive has progressed to a serious floor fighter since his first official appearance in 2007. With a musical taste reaching from his deephouse backround and soulful minimal sounds to kicking and mind blowing techno he has played almost every leading club and festival over the past ten years.

 

Sascha Dive is not only taking his sound and vision to the world's finest floors, he still manages to release more and more music. Dive has released a vast number of productions and remixes on high class labels such as Tsuba, Freebase, Deep Labs (Balance US), Raum...Musik or Stir15 and aside from all the touring and producing he still runs his own "Deep Vibes" label with great success. "Deep Vibes" has produced some outstanding music by Sascha Dive and his buddies and „house-mates“ such as Brothers Vibe, Robert Dietz, Christian Burkhardt or Markus Fix (just to name a few) and most of it on vinyl! So it's no wonder that vinyl master Sven Väth signed Sascha to Cocoon Artists and Cocoon Recordings.

 

Sascha Dive, a forward thinking producer and DJ who still waves the flag of the real vinyl sound and always will. With more young men like him house music will live on forever!

 

Check out Sascha Dive's thoughts on his career so far, his greatest gigs and what the future will hopefully bring for him...

Every musical journey begins somewhere. The fertile electronic music scene that has dominated the clubs and bars in Midlands has clearly been an important factor in the growth and sheer diversity of dazzling acts that have emerged out of that region. It was here that DJ, producer and label boss Tom Conrad earned his stripes in a residency at Lovezoo from 2002-2007 playing alongside some of the biggest DJ’s of the era, including the legendary Danny Rampling, Xpress 2 and the Stanton Warriors. Tom’s meticulously constructed and legendary 7 hour plus sets have rocked crowds in London, Birmingham and Nottingham, playing regular sets at Gatecrasher and Escucha in Nottingham.

Tom was brought up on the classics, taking in inspiration from a variation of styles. His early influences saw the electro pop sounds of New Order, Tears For Fears and others plus the Acid House/ Rave scene make a big impression on his musical stance.  In his teenage years Tom embraced the birth of one of drum’n’bass’s most celebrated talents, LTJ Bukem and Good Looking Records alongside the illustrious Moving Shadow label which started to broaden the depth of his musical knowledge and his appreciation of other musical styles. It was later on that Tom developed an ear for the trance/prog era of Sasha, John Digweed and the herculean Paul Oakenfold  and so it was his love of House music that would play a crucial part in moulding Tom’s very own record label, Adaptation Music.

Every respected, creative and inspiring DJ always delves into music production at some point in their life and Tom is no exception. Having recorded his first two Remixes of Blackliquid’s ‘Gotta Be Me’ on Open Bar records in 2007 after the label owner picked up a copy of his bootleg mix of Louie Vega’s ‘Diamond Life’, his track ‘The One’ remixed by West Coast legend Reelsoul earned Tom and Adaptation Music a very respectable #5 spot on Traxsource’s top download chart. Tom’s joint projects include the long term affiliation with keyboard wizard Andre Bonsor from Schmoov/WindingRoad/DiY with their first full EP ‘Life, Sound & Space’ being released on Seasons Recordings. This is a project that’s certain to continue to produce fantastic music for some time to come.

In 2008, Tom set up his own label with a mission, to release and make high quality original and timeless House music.  His artist roster now reads like who’s who of Deep, Soulful and Tech House with DJ Spen, Matthias Vogt, Ananda Project, Ralf GUM, DJ Rasoul and Mr A.L.I. featuring heavily on his release schedule. The labels releases regularly attain top download positions on Traxsource and other high quality dance music sites and have been reviewed in top quality publications such as DMC, DJ Magazine, Chicago’s 5 Magazine and top U.K newspaper The Guardian. With plans to launch another label called Cosmic Elements later this year which focuses on downtempo, chillout and other non-house related genres, and international club dates booked in Spain, Italy and Holland later this year, Tom’s future as a label boss looks very bright indeed!
