Bassjackers

“On a afternoon somewhere in the beginning of 2007 two friends decided to join forces, one Dj and one producer, both sharing great passion for house music.. Bassjackers was born..!” Bassjackers aka Marlon Flohr and Ralph van Hilst had not foreseen what was coming when they started out with their collaboration. Marlon was already Dj-ing for a while and Ralph experimented a lot with making different kinds of dance music. Marlon was mainly playing house music at the time and then the idea came to push Ralphs productions in that direction so that Marlon could play the tracks in his sets.

Stardust

Stardust was a French house band. Formed in Paris, France, it was a one-time musical collaboration consisting of producers Thomas Bangalter, Alan Braxe and vocalist Benjamin Diamond. The short-lived group released the popular club track titled "Music Sounds Better With You" in 1998. "Music Sounds Better with You", which had its basis in a sample from "Fate" by Chaka Khan, was conceived in the Rex Club in Paris, where Bangalter, Braxe, and Diamond were performing as a live trio. Bangalter and Braxe created the instrumental, which Diamond instinctively sang the title words over.

Neither time nor distance could keep these brothers from reuniting in Lockerbie, Scottland to explore their love of music -- culminating in the formation of Beg.

Since then, and over the years, Nissim has played in dozens of clubs across Israel, such as the "Forum", "Ha-Oman 17", "Alenby 58" and for the past few years in the "TLV" as the resident of the "FFF" - the most successful line of gay parties in Israel.

Richard Dinsdale

House music: it's more than just a feeling. For young turk Richard Dinsdale, it's a way of life. Although only a sprightly 24 years old, this new kid on the house block's been living, breathing and bleeding dance music for the best part of a decade. His mouth-watering mix of tech-tinged electro and bass-heavy house is a regular fixture at leading London nightspot The Cross, his solid, groove-led productions snapped up by UK labels Renaissance, Kinky Vinyl, Big Love and Toolroom.

In the group are six MC’s; Kevin Allison AKA Dowie MC, Rob Davis AKA MC Rapid, Kurtis Chadwick AKA MC Viper, Matty Fisher AKA Dubble MC, Zak Kabbani AKA MC Zak K and Jordan Cover AKA MC Cover.
