A bit more on Sander...

First there were Heineken and Edam, then came Sander van Doorn. The Dutch musical genius may not be as mature as his predecessors but he’s certainly made as much of a global impact in his comparatively short career.

Having made his debut in the world-renowned DJ Mag Top 100 at 32 in 2006, before climbing to No.10 in 2009’s poll, the fast rise of Sander van Doorn is a testament to his raw talent and dedication. In just seven years he’s clocked up more dance floor destroyers, sell out gigs and awards than most artists do in a lifetime and his journey is still in its infancy.

From the start Sander (and his alter egos; Sam Sharp, Purple Haze, Filterfunk & Sandler) has produced a variety of sounds at a level that only most producers can dream of, combining elements of trance, electro, techno and house constantly blowing away his fans and comrades, keeping everyone guessing what he’s going to come up with next. His debut artist album ‘Supernaturalistic’ was released in 2008 to rave reviews and launched a 32-date global album tour. He followed this by winning the coveted prize of ‘Best Breakthrough Artist’ at WMC’s IDMA, where he also received a nomination for ‘Best Underground Track’ with ‘Riff’ and ‘Best Electro House’ DJ at 2009’s Ibiza House Awards.

It’s not only Sander’s solo productions that keep everyone on their toes but his bootlegs, covers and incredible remixes. This year we have seen Sander deliver official interpretations for multi-million selling and multi-award winning band, The Killers, with his re-working of their single ‘Spaceman’, as well as ‘Peace’ from electronic legends Depeche Mode.

Also let’s not forget his fantastic selection of collaborations, with artists including friend and mentor Marco V on the monster tracks ‘Organic’ and ‘What Say’, and ‘Close My Eyes’, the European Top 20 hit, with a man that needs no introduction, Robbie Williams. Sander is one of the most in-demand genre crossing producers of his generation, his releases regularly picking up support from as wide reaching places as Pete Tong, Judge Jules, Tiesto and Carl Cox – you’re as likely to find his records in a house DJ’s box as a trance DJs. In fact, in 2009, each and everyone one of Sander’s releases (Bastillon, Ninety and Bliksem) have made it to No.1 on Beatport.

Not content with taking the world by storm with his productions, Sander’s DJ skills are a force to be reckoned with. Every year sees Sander play to over one million clubbers. He consistently headlines huge events from Sensation to Global Gathering, from Trance Energy and Mysteryland through to his high profile summer residency at Cream in Ibiza.

It was Sander’s DJing experiences around the world that inspired his own night ‘Dusk Till Doorn’, taking clubbing to the next level, offering the ultimate Sander van Doorn experience. Having already wowed crowds at the launch in May at The Gallery, Ministry of Sound, in Ibiza in June and North America in October, Sander’s musical and visual journey continues to pleasure crowds around the globe.

Sander is extremely grateful to his fans and likes to give back as much possible. You can always be sure to find a couple of competition winners somewhere in an SvD crowd, on his private jet, in the DJ booth or staying at his hotel - Sander believes that giving the fans a piece of the action is a great way of repaying them for their support. In 2006 Sander set up his own radio show, giving fans the opportunity to hear him no matter where they might be. Now in it’s 3rd year and syndicated globally as well as being available as a Podcast, 'Identity' has given Sander a platform to distribute the sound that thousands of fans adore.

As Sander approaches the most exciting time of his career and having already achieved so much in a relatively short period of time, it’s easy to see where this man is heading – Number 1!

Don't stay In Mix of the Week 010 - Nick Warren (Progressive House)
November 17, 2009 09:13 AM PST

Easy now!

This week Dont Stay In bring you Nick Warren!

Right click here and select save as to download the file

 

 

Track list:

- John Selway "shake the snow" Beat broker melting dub -Kompakt
- Glocal "After Midnight"Hyena stomp remix -Rebirth
- Dpen and Nick Varon "In Pain" - Unknown
- Jim Rivers "Full Tilt" Wettbbu remix - Tronic
- Psycatron "Is What It Is" - R&S

- Way Out West "Future Perfect" Henry Saiz remix - Hope
- Ultraviolet "Kites" Pete Goodings Instrumental – Magicmuz.com
- Matias Chilano "Thinking" Isaac Escamilla remix – No Smoking

You can tell when Nick Warren's on the decks. The music emanating from the man is that perfect club mix of driving percussion and soaring musicality, bursting out of the speakers, soaking everyone in melody, drenching them in sound. On the floor, where it really matters, his crowd experience all the peaks and troughs that make his music so unique. Locking on early, you'll hear his deeper take on house, which morphs, as the club mood changes, into harder territory, music for sweating and losing yourself to. And at that point when the light are low, when smoke fills the room and people are dancing on instinct, that's when the melodies start to rise over the top, washing the worries and exertions of life away, completing the club experience. That's why Nick Warren is so respected, because he knows how to truly work a club, and a crowd, delivering again and again. That's what comes with vision and, just as importantly, experience.

Nick, a music obsessive who grew up on punk, reggae and pop was, like so many DJs turned onto the power of house music in the late 80s. Living in Bristol, he'd been playing tunes for a few years before, running his own club night, Wiggle, in the city with a friend and he took immediately to this new sound coming from America. In 1990, a new house club, Vision took the city by storm and in a perfect bit of timing, he was offered the chance to play in the upstairs room, spinning weird downbeat Balearic records and mixing house with music by The Clash and Frank Sinatra. Catching the attention of a group of guys who had their own band, he was roped in to tour with them as their DJ when they went to play America. The group was Massive Attack.

As their official DJ, he began working on music of his own. Joining up with another Bristol producer, Jody Wisternoff in 1994 to form Way Out West, they recorded the seminal 'Ajare' single together, a huge progressive house club hit. Three years later, and with the duo now signed to Deconstruction, it was re-released, this time breaking into the charts and finally, the nation's consciousness. Then came 'The Gift'. With a memorable hook line culled from an old hardcore track, its mix of ambient soundscapes and breaks won it universal plaudits, sending Nick and Jody onto Top of the Pops and catapulting Nick into the league of the superstar DJ. Their three albums, 'Blue' and "Intensify" and took every single one of the pair's influences and shaped them into a groundbreaking collection of tracks that stayed in the CD players of the UK and beyond for a long, long time. Their third album “Don’t Look Now” was released in 2005, which they toured as a live band with Faithless. Album Four We Love Machine has just been released.
And yet all this history has been eclipsed by Nick’s present: a DJ career spanning a decade and a half via his lengthy residency superclub Cream and then every self respecting club on the planet. His sound, which is entirely unique, sourced by forging relationships with cutting edge producers all over the globe, most of his set still made up of unsigned new electronic talent. This is no better represented than in the continuing series of compilations. “Back to Mine”, Renaissance his eighth Global Underground album, this time from the wild environs of Lima making him the most featured artists for this huge compilation series.

He has also taken over A&R at Hope Recordings as the final link in the chain that allows him to represent the sound that he has so long championed.

Nick Warren isn't for standing still, he loves what he's doing too much for that, but you know that already.

If you want to see Nick in action, then check him out at the Gallery @ Ministry of Sound this Friday!!

Playing an energetic mix of jump up electro, disco grooves and heavy basslines he is rapidly becoming one of the hottest up and coming djs on the club circuit.

His passion for performing started out at the age of 17 throwing college parties in dodgy bars on borrowed sound systems, since then the venues have changed but the energy is the same, when Sam Pepper is on, the house party vibes come through the decks as loud and clear as the latest heavy-duty club track.

Having already played out big festival sets at Snowbombing, Bestival, Get loaded, and Lovebox and supported artists such as Pendulum, Filthy dukes, Jaymo, Deepgroove, Alex metric and Grum, Sam Pepper has recently won a place supporting Radio 1’s Kissy Sell Out on his Kissy and Ko UK Tour.

With an increasingly busy schedule at some of the coolest clubs in the country and a new exploration in to production Sam Pepper is definitely a name to keep an eye out for in the near future!

Moda - Retro/Grade
Love hits the fan - Phonat
Best Party Ever - Toecutter (Jordan Lightyear and Jimmy 2 Sox remix)

Don't Stay In Mix of the Week 008 - Traves (house and Techno)
November 13, 2009 06:37 AM PST
itunes pic

This week Dont Stay In have got Public House’s Traves with a really nice house and techno mix for us!

Right click here and select save as to download the file

Track list

1. Joeski - Diss U
2. Luna City Express - Rough Neck (Matthias Tanzmann Remix)
3. Anthea + Celler - I Change
4. Micha Klang - I Am For Real (Nima Gorji Remix) / Peace Division - Be U 4 T
5. Arado + Den Ishu - I Know
6. Lee Van Dowski + Glimpse - La Cocina Del Cabron
7. Arnaud Le Texier + V-Sexion - Funk Some Thoughts (Remix By Lemos)
8. Lemos - Kaloo
9. Falko Brocksieper - Lament
10. Mark Broom - Life
11. Winx - How's The Music (Funky Fever Mix)
12. Ethyl Meatplow - Queenie (MK Dub Mix)



While some DJs blow hot and cold as time goes by Traves seems to be oblivious to temperature, one thing you are guaranteed is storming bomb ridden sets that leave ears pricked and your body pinned. Renown for his treasure chest of rare 80’s and 90’s Chicago house and Detroit techno its little surprise to learn that the vibes of Todd Terry led him to purchase some 1200’s and start playing house parties when he was at university. Being more of a scholar in dance music than in academia, his research into the early origins of house and techno, from Detroit to Berlin, combined with being at the forefront of current releases means his sound shows a real love for rhythm, if it sounds good and the leather glove fits, its on. He burned the midnight oil perfecting his musical style, stopping only to satisfy his addiction to Jaeger's, easy chicas and opera shoes.

Diligently learning from the old guard, Dj Sneak, Carl Craig, Ricardo Villalobos, Romanthony, Aaron Carl and Steve Bug his sound didn’t go un noticed and the bookings started to roll in, until in 2009 he set up the infamously hedonistic Public House night with a few friends. With Public House taking off the future looks bright for Traves, he is definitely a name to take note of…. this guy is going places.

07.11.09 - Public House feat. Fabio Giannelli
28.11.09 - Public House @ Musiq Concrete
31.12.09 - Public House NYE - Secret Warehouse Location

“I have a new ‘not so live but wish it was’ mix for you I recorded this morning after I played Fabric on the evening of Sunday 4th October at WetYourSelf.

Unfortunately there were some issues with the Live recording but thanks to my boredom the following day and seratos history function I was able to see what tracks i played on the night and in what order I played them so I decided to re record the set.

For your listening pleasure..

This distinction is guaranteed by one of the most prestigious firms of vanguard electronic music (PRIME, London), as well as chief figures in the industry worldwide that have had the privilege in sharing the booth with him, not to mention fellow producers that work within the same record labels that he does or have had remixes conducted by Cristian. This young artist from Madrid with more than 11 years of experience, has played in each and every one of most important clubs and festivals nationally, and within the past six years has also participated in many events internationally.

He has participated in events of such magnitude as: Love parade (Berlin), Techno Parade (Paris), I Love Techno (Belgium), Neuraleptic (Belgium), Nature One Festival (Germany), Liberty (U.K.), Maniac Love (Japan), It Feels so Real (Tolouse), L.O.V.E. (Sao Paulo), Techno Trax (Madrid), Esparrago Rock (Spain), May Day (Spain) and has played in countries like the U.S.A., Holland, Canada, Brazil, Russia, many countries within Eastern Europe such as Slovenia, Greece, Italy, Portugal, Colombia and the Chechen Republic.

As a disk jockey, Cristian Varela is known, above all, for his pure sets using three turntables and featuring an elegant and rigorous musical selection that portrays his individual style. Using the pseudonym of Carlos Duran, he depicts his ingenuity in the House realm. Presently, as a producer, he is working for the most significant record labels such as Primate Records (UK), Primevil (UK), Additive (UK), Elephanthaus (Chicago), PV (Germany), Production Session (Belgium), Highland Beats (Holland) in which he has released more than 33 productions and is reaping infinite success by being included in some of the most important compilations and practically entering all the charts worldwide. He has also completed remixes for such artists in the caliber of Speedy J, Tim Baker, Marco Bailey, Pascal F.E.O.S., Verdi and Farfa.

In December of 2000 he released his much anticipated album debut 'New Electronic Audio Arquitectures,' distributed in Spain by Serial Killer Vinyl. This album clearly confirms that Cristian Varela is one of the most significant artists in electronic music of this new millenium. Cristian is also the proprietor and artistic director of two of the most consolidated record labels internationally, 'Pornographic' (Techno) and the new 'DonkeyHead' (House)- yet another verification of his versatile personality and prolific character. Both labels have such an underground feel to them and feature collaborations with artists like Umek, Tim Baker, Massaya, Qyuhey, Bando. The past year was clearly prosperous for Varela and it was even more delightful when he was honored in DeejayMag's 2001 Awards, where he received awards in the categories of Best DJ of the Year, Best Techno DJ and Best Recorded Session (for the Salon de Mezclas mixed by Cristian Varela and Tony Verdi).

SIREN002 - Anne Savage vs Gridbreaker – Sound Of Goodbye

1) Tech Mix
2) Dirty Mix
3) Hard House mix

Click here to Purchase this release from Mixmag Dowload

Anne Savage’s brand new label, Siren trax thunders on after its debut release last month which caused quite a stir in clubland, picking up 4 radio one plays and topping download charts worldwide! Dedicated to showcasing the diversity of her sound, Anne’s 2nd release ranges from slower techier vibes all the way up to full on hard house collaborating with up and coming start Gridbreaker (a.ka Jamie Riteman) to cover the classic trance track ‘Sound Of Goodbye’

On the A side Anne slows down the BPM’s and heads down the tech route featuring crunchy percussion, a powerful bassline which created the unique groove, and great use of the classic vocals. To compliment the tech mix Anne dawns her grittier side on the Dirty mix keeping the same structure but adding an immense dirty drop which wouldn’t sound out of place in a Kamui record! Finally for the last mix Anne heads back to the good old hard house days of furry boots and cyber wear, upping the fun levels and bringing the party vibes back into harddance with the ‘hard house remix’.

November 09, 2009 11:31 PM PST

Here is our first Don't Stay In mix of the week! It's by a personal favourite of mine, Enzo Siragusa. Most of you will know that Enzo is the music brains behind the Fuse brand which is smashing the arse out of Brick Lane's 93 Feet East every Sunday and Delano on Ibiza's Playa den Bossa every Tuesday! I was at Fuse last night, it was mobbed and going RIGHT off! Enzoalso been a member of the DJ Mixes group since it's creation back in 2004 where he got early recognition for his mixes on here!

3. The Great Derangement - Catz 'n Dogz & Pol_On Skandal Remix
4. Puertorican Etno - Leon

11. Ealica - Luis Groove (Main Festival Mix)
12. Bitchual Linestepper - Patrick Specke
13. Ohh I Don't Know - Martinez & Matthias Tanzmann

And here's a bit more on Enzo…

Attuned to the dance floor through more than a decade of DJ’ing, Enzo’s deep groove based house sound is at the heart of London’s iconic Fuse party at 93 Feet East. In less than a year Fuse has amassed a loyal following of ravers young and old, as it has fast become an institution for London clubbers. Enzo's DJing is clearly central to this success, but so too is his careful direction of the sound, using his innate understanding of the dancefloor to program the right DJs at the right time. When he steps up to play, his often marathon DJ sets are subtle, dynamic and always full of energy. Playing people rather than just music he’s known for creating a unique vibe through his sound which the Fuse faithful now simply refer to as 'Fusic'.

Growing up in the early 90’s rave scene, dance music has always been a way of life for Enzo. Since buying his first record in 1992 his passion for music has seen him collect and play all shades of electronic music before settling into the deep underground house sound his is known for today. Throughout this time he has always had an instinctive understanding of what the crowd wants to hear, a deep connection that all his DJ sets are built on.

Playing for such a musically aware crowd on a weekly basis has had a profound effect on Enzo as he creates his own music. Getting immediate and honest feedback from the crowd means that the end results for Enzo are tracks that are essential dancefloor winners. His debut release Himba, coming out this autumn on Nima Gorji's Welt Sounds label, is a prime example of this. Deep and enchanting it hooks you in early with its warmth, then inspired by a great African vocal, it lifts you away. You get the feeling, the feeling that this is just the beginning for Enzo, clearly one of hottest talents in the UK today.

Upcoming dates:

Fuse
Fuse Ibiza

Fuse
Fuse Ibiza Closing Party

Enjoy the mix and I’ll hopefully see you out and about!

Peace! O xx
