Born at the early 80’s and with more than 15 years djiing, Raul is currently one of the leading techno producers of the electronic scene. Since he began in 1995 he has highly developed his techno style, but also opened his mind to different music styles. These days, you can see how Raul releases a wide range of styles, going from hardgroove (his favourite) to minimal techno or tech house. This is why Raul has created different shows with different music styles that he adjusts to the venue that demands his services.
In 2009, due to his studio and dj skills, the club Florida 135 decided to count on Raul to be one of his dj's residents. This club is one of the pioneers of electronic music in Spain and Europe, and Raul has the privilege of playing every weekend with the best dj's of the world. Also in 2009, he won the Beatport Music Awards 2009 for Best Hard Techno Track
In the DJ booth Raul has showed his good dj skills with a very personal touch inspired in a sweet mixture between old school techno and the freshest electronic sounds. He has openly declares to be influenced by techno artists, such as Ben Sims, Joey Beltram, The Advent, Bryan Cox, Dj Sneak…he says he has taken a little bit of every of these big time artists to create his own style.
His techno-hardgroove productions contain a strong and very powerful sound with a classy touch of tribal elements, funky and disco. He started producing in 2005 and he’s currently editing his own record label Laktic-rec, with already 7 records released. Besides his label, he often releases on the best labels on the techno market: Patterns, Pseries, Phot, Adult Records, Relatives Records, Cobra Records, Audio Family Records…etc. Due to his hard work as a producer, Raul has released 120 references and more than 170 tracks.
Raul plays regularly around Europe, and even in Latin America sometimes. Special mention to his three-monthly residence in Portugal and Italy. In Spain he’s one of the main techno DJS, proved by his before mentioned residency in Florida135 and Row14.

Damir Hoffman is a dj, producer & head of party organisation based in Nova Gorica Slovenia. He has been in the Slovenian electronic music scene for the past 10 years and there's no bigger club or event where he didn't
perform yet.
From the very begining it was clear that he has an outstanding music taste which attracted the attention of the audience very fast. After playing at some parties in 2001, he felt the need for his own contribution to the local clubbing scene, so he started to organise parties with interational guests. The events spread like fire and Damir became well known for his energetic closing sets.
In the 2007 he started working at Marco Polo polo club and Reload concept was born. Over the years almost all the biggest techno players performed at Reload parties and Reload is currently the strongest brand for club nights in the region.
2011 was the year for Damir. He got the opportunity from Marco Bailey to release on his MB Elektronics imprint. The first track released ''Break point'' was already a success as it enetered immediately in the Beatport top 100 techno chart. The second release named ''Borik'' gained also a solid support from many known artists.
After a big start of his production career there are more big shoots scheduled for spring 2013 as well his booking schedule is busy then ever.
**URBAN JERAM********************
(BURN RESIDENCY 2012 WINNER // El ROW, PRIVILIGE IBIZA 2012 RESIDENT)

Since 1999, Slovenian DJ Urban Jeram has been busy building a solid reputation as one of Eastern Europe’s finest techno musicians. Starting out his electronic music career as a 14-year-old resident DJ in a local club in Slovenia, Urban was soon invited to perform across the rapidly expanding club-land territory of Eastern Europe. Working to manage, organise and promote a plethora of dance music events, his wealth of industry experience soon caught the eye of DJ Umek, who offered Jeram a job on his much venerated 1605 (Sixteenofive) label.
Rather than basking in the comfort of his own achievements, Jeram decided to broaden his appreciation of the electronic arts, using video animation to sculpt a creative multimedia vision that encompassed both sonic and ocular triggers.
His stock rising, Jeram was invited to perform at a number of Reload Events and also at the gargantuan Pulse Festival, which gave him an opportunity to test his rolling, hypnotic sound against the biggest names in electronic music industry.
In 2012, Urban Jeram applied and was selected to participate in the legendary Burn Residency competition. After winning his Slovenian heat, he overcame his rivals in the Adriatic Peninsula, before he was invited to compete in the final round of the Burn Residency competition on the party island of Ibiza. Of course, Jeram was up to the challenge, beating thousands of contestants from over Europe in the process. The prize was colossal – a weekly residency at the craziest party in the world, ElRow, hosted at Privilege, the world’s biggest club.
Always looking to maintain momentum, Urban Jeram is poised to unveil a number of new studio production projects in 2013. And he’ll be performing in Ibiza again this summer, so be sure to catch up with him there.

Nejc Vidmar, AKA Nikashy started DJing back in 2006. Experimenting with several different music styles before finding his heart in dance music. Growing up in a small town with few opportunities to play, Nikashy lives by a ‘seize the moment’ mentality and, with an enthusiasm for his craft that knows no bounds, has helped organize several dance events in his home country Slovenia, most notably Eco Festival and Festival Čipkarija. In 2011 he won PreParty’s DJ competition, carrying with it the chance to play in Greece with the likes of Umek and Shapeshifters, for the last 2 years he has held a residency at Slovenia’s renowned Coco Café Club. He describes his sets as tribal tech house with Balkan influences. At the moment he waits for his first release to go public. Also his plans are by the end of 2013 release 4 more tracks. Lot more to come very soon.

Younger generation of established talents from Slovenia is standing, beyond quality sound and great ideas of today's clubbing scene...Ales Furlan aka. F.Sonik is one of
them. In the swirl of nightlife he has been increasing attention on himself, especially with quality and distinctive tech-house sound. He is developing and outstanding his
talent through his own music stages, which led him to the closest genre where he fits in the best way. Although he stresses out that he doesn't want to be defined under a
specific genre, because he wants to offer his best music selection, so that the audience will enjoy through the whole evening. He still remains faithful to the underground
clubbing scene, which for many clubbers still remains the only genuine and "valid" one. He is gaining support from older and sophisticated experts from the underground
clubbing scene and he knows that they are following his personal development and accepting him as their own; all this means the world to him. His final "products" are
without doubts placed among top ones and for a quite long time are already moving young people in clubs around the world to dance.. "always new and loyal audience is the greatest gift for a DJ and producer.." F. Sonik adds.He is of course aware that the existence and popularity in the clubbing scene can't be
earned overnight, so he learned the importance of gaining audience and "standing" on
the ground from the beginning till the end of his career.

Alex Ranerro, also known as Saša Vujasinović, was born 21
years ago in Zagreb, Croatia. His family soon moved to the little city of Laško, Slovenia. Music has always been Alex's big love and a way of life. He started his musical journey at a very young age, at only eight years old. He started playing the saxophone and he fell in love immediately. He was always trying to create new melodies and unique sounds, this then encouraged him to start producing his own material. That was already back in high school, but in his last years of school, he really devoted himself to his music. As a result of producing in school, and having finished making a small selection of tracks, drove him to wanting to play them. And so, not long after DJ'ing became his next new love. And being given the opportunity to play a couple of gigs, but his most important two were at K4, playing at SAE Alumni Party and PREPARTY SHOWCASE
XMASS EDITION. Alex is currently a part of Preparty's dj-ing family, alongside big artists like Sylvain, Mike Vale, Junior Sanchez and Davide Manali. With hard work and some experience, came first results. Alex used to be a selftaught home producer, but that wasn't enough, so he wanted to know more about the values of production. At the moment he is learning cool tricks at SAE classes,
taking his sound to a higher level. And there were instant results too, as first track 'Bang Her' got signed on 1605 Music Therapy. It appeared on top 100 Beatport
chart, and stayed on 80th place for quite some time. His new tracks 'Caliente' and Night Life' were released on Kushtee records.' Night Life' reached 12th place on top
100 Trackitdown Deep/Tech House chart. End of February 2012, Alex created 'Here Comes', that was signed to Natura Viva. Alex is very busy at the moment, always working on something new. He is currently
in the studio making a remix for Angel Anx and another remix that will be released soon on Luukas Kaapro, label owned by Youri Donatz.Collaborating on a progressive/electro project with a friend overseas, which has not yet seen the light of the day, means that Alex will not be defined only as a tech house genre producer and dj, but a musician with variety. And even though, he is a
new name to the scene, it won't be long before he gets widely recognized. And with a couple of fresh releases in the oven and support of his closest friends, he is surely
becoming one of the most promising new producers on the Slovenian House scene. From what he's shown so far, he certainly is hot stuff. Follow him on his path and
stay tuned for more info!

Aljaž Gnezda aka Eliaz let music into his life when he started playing drums in musical school at the age of 10. Later he played in various punk bands, but soon he realized that this kind of music isn't for him anymore. He was more and more into electronic music, and when it prevailed, the desire for spinning and producing his own music became bigger and bigger, until he bought few peaces of equipment and started to make deep/tech house in may of 2012. After 2 months of producing, he played for the first time, in the finals of the Innocent Music contest for producers, where he was second! Soon he joined Elektronika69 team, and started to play a little bit more!!
