When it comes to describing Nadja Lind, a dispassionate third person box ticking exercise doesn't really cut it. Sure, she has the credentials: a DJing career that kicked off on New Years Eve 2003 and has spawned a typically globetrotting calendar (b2b with Terry Francis at Fabric London, b2b with Silicone Soul@ Time Club Manila, Tresor Berlin...), a production career that has seen several works as either a solo artist or with Klartraum production buddy Helmut Ebritsch, and the dizzying heights of being co-owner of the Lucidflow imprint, a record label which has seriously started to rack up quality releases and remixes, seeing the likes of John Digweed and Hernan Cattaneo pluck from the catalogue, a seal of quality like no other. Tick, tick, tick... the facts are all there.

What this doesn't get across is the sheer warmth of personality that Nadja brings to your world once invited in. As barmy as a bag of cats, you can guarantee that there is one person at the gig that will be jumping harder than all the rest, and that is the lady in charge of the buttons herself. It's true; I've seen it at fabric London. Beaming smiles and effervescent personality, this shines through in her music: the serious tropes of Dub Techno and Deep Tech House are drawn upon and spun through a web of energy, a jolt from the defibrillators to the weary heart of the House music scene.

Her ceaseless energy is now spreading through into her performances; not content to just spin other people's tracks one after another, Klartraum have branched out into live performances featuring their own tracks and live jams. Also, since the start of 2012, Nadja's sets (barring her marathon 6 hour Audio Olympian excursions) are now populated purely with her own hand crafted distinctive sound, thanks to a back catalogue that is pretty much humungous. Venues such as the world renowned Fabric and infamous Kazantip festival have been treated to this unique vision.

Continents and countries such as Australia, India, Kenya, USA, Asia, Mexico have been treated to the Nadja touch. A cheeky partnership with those fans of Dark Rooms and Dubs, Silicone Soul, is blooming into some exclusive DJ mix and label collaboration parties. Plus the eternal draw of a bulging production catalogue that will continue to deliver a spectrum from Dub and Chill Out to the straight up Techno of her Luci-fer alias, working solo and with illustrious names such as Brendon Moeller, Saytek, Grunbox, Omar Salgado, G-Man (a.k.a. LFO), Lulu Rouge and Paul Loraine.

So there we have it; the past, present and future of Nadja Lind, all boxes ticked, facts present and correct.

DEAS (Karol Mozgawa), based in Cracow/Poland, born in Greece is a music producer and DJ, who is fast becoming one of Techno’s most exciting breakthrough artists originating from Eastern Europe. One can recognize his Greek origins and East European upbringing in his music, where enthusiasm and fantasy blends in varying shades of Techno. He believes that music “is never a subject to stereotypes and clichés”. This allows him to think freely and create music without boundaries, in which psychedelics and raw, heavy Techno is balanced to perfection with memorable, warm but yet deep melodies. Not yet 30, he has been mastering his production skills for a decade. During this time he developed an impressive studio where most of his music is recorded live. His hard work is presently coming into a full effect with the releases of a number of labels ranging from Platent Rhythm, through Materia, to Quartz Records. Deas productions received great feedback and are strongly endorsed by Len Faki, Marcel Dettmann, Rodhad Alex. Do, Marcel Fengler to name just a few. His music is also featured and supported by such music magazines as Mixmag, Dj Mag, Decoded Magazine, Datatransmission and so on. It is not that often you see such broadly developed artist, like Deas, who is equally skilled in the production studio and behind the decks.

Thomas Schumacher was eleven years old when Depeche Mode released Construction Time Again. "I'll never forget sitting at home, listening to the album in my headphones, trying to figure out how they made those sounds."
Thirty-five years later, Thomas Schumacher still burns with curiosity. The Berlin-based DJ and producer makes light of his status as one of the most successful, versatile artists in electronic music. "What I love about Techno is that it demands that you constantly challenge and reinvent yourself."
Thomas Schumacher is always pushing his own boundaries. "The art of being relevant," he says, "is to repeatedly forget what you know.” In his early days producing music, he had to learn how to physically create the sounds he heard in his head. Now, as a virtuoso, the challenge is to use his breadth and depth of musical knowledge to convey profound emotion. "Techno is not just a tool to make people dance" he says, "it is a very personal, intimate way of connecting."
This intimacy fuels the unique vibe of a Thomas Schumacher DJ set. He likens what he does to being the captain of a ship. “I purposely steer my sets into rough waters. I want to help people get out of their heads and into their bodies. I create a safe space for people to lose their minds, in the best possible way. They know they don't need to worry or be afraid, because I’ve got them. I know what I'm doing. They can let go and just be."
When not guiding clubbers through seas of sound, Schumacher reaches them via his productions on labels like Drumcode; Arts, Noir Music and his own label Electric Ballroom. The more he creates, the more there is to explore, the more opportunities to invent, connect, and imagine. "I am always the one to change it up," says Thomas. "My ongoing ambition is to connect with the people, every single time. Thats why I do what I do and love it so much. I have never seen a reason to compartmentalise my music and my life. Everything is energy and everything is connected."
On Beatport Thomas’ remix of the classic “The House Of House” became his third number one hit within the past 24 months after “Stella”- a propulsive anthem dedicated to his daughter and “Wonder”, his collaboration with Victor Ruiz - once again reinforcing his place as one of the Techno greats.

As one of the most heavily supported and best-sold techno producers of the moment, notorious for his powerful live performances at renowned festivals and clubs, Reinier Zonneveld is currently taking over the contemporary scene with his unique view on techno. In spite of his young age, Zonneveld already managed to score several charting hits, including Beatport overall no.1 “Things We Might Have Said”, which was included on his well-received artist album “Megacity Servant” and later on landed in a Hollywood production.
Born in the Netherlands on the 30 January 1991, Zonneveld’s introduction to music was through classical piano lessons from the tender age of three. In his youth, Reinier started to compose classical music pieces and performed piano concerts by himself. But it was only when he started his university studies in econometrics and finance and after attending his first illegal raves, that Reinier Zonneveld began exploring music production by way of electronic means. Spending all of his student’s allowance on his first synthesizers during his university time, Zonneveld managed to teach himself his outstanding production skills in his student dorm.
At the end of 2015, after he completed his two master’s degrees, Zonneveld decided to dedicate all of his time and effort to his ever-growing passion: producing and performing techno music. Soon after, his tracks got picked up by some of the biggest names in the scene, followed by releases on Oliver Koletzki’s Stil vor Talent, Carl Cox’s Intec, Richie Hawtin’s Minus and two official remixes for Moby.
With his productions and live-sets influenced by both, Zonneveld’s classical background and his own rave experiences, it’s no surprise that his sound contains an incredible breadth, ranging from deep melodic tracks to pounding warehouse acid techno.
Zonneveld’s musical talent truly shines through in his live performances as he manages to craft hits, both old and new, live on stage. This extraordinary talent enables Reinier to perform a unique all-night live-set on the spot, while creating explosive moments on the dance floor.
Only just starting his career, Zonneveld has already performed on all continents, from main stages to underground clubs, leaving a thrilled crowd on each dance-floor. If not on the road, Zonneveld tries to find time in his fully-booked tour schedule to create tracks and further hone his skills in the studio, with the experiences and influences gained from his performances and travels as a constant source of inspiration.

Next to performing and producing music, Reinier runs his own well-received label Filth on Acid, which was founded in early 2017. Filth on Acid will fully enable Zonneveld’s creativity and serves as a platform for his wide view on techno music. All being said, it’s apparent that Reinier Zonneveld will further influence today’s global techno scene with his unique productions and dance floor-shaking live-sets for years to come. It’s just the beginning...
