Victor Ruiz

Music is something you have to experience. It touches you in the most intimate way. And that’s what music is to Victor Ruiz: the strongest form of art. With a Rock ’n’ Roll background, is no mystery that Victor has a unique sound. For some years now, he has been known for his high-end quality of production, which has made him an established artist in the Techno scene. His “unofficial edits” of classic songs are very famous and part of Victor’s performances. The most popular ones are “Breathe” from The Prodigy, “Children” from Robert Miles, “Everything Counts” from Depeche Mode (in collaboration with Thomas Schumacher) and his latest edit of “Teardrop” from Massive Attack. He states that this is his way to pay tribute to their influences.

Apart from remixing officially big names of the electronic scene such as MOBY, Stephan Bodzin and Dubfire, he has reached many times #1 on Beatport with his signature peak time melodic sound.
Over the years, the Brazilian born Berlin-based producer has been touring all around the world, from big festivals to intimate clubs and from big clubs to intimate festivals, and it’s getting busier every day. He just can’t get enough!
As Victor injects pure love on every single work he does, thanks to music, he exists.

Marco Bailey
------------
Icon. Living legend. Both definitions that apply to Marco Bailey, a self-taught dj and producer whose career started to develop in the late 80s after attending a local club in his native Belgium, and being completely seduced by the rhythmic power of dance music. That was when all changed. A first approach that triggered the decision to be behind decks instead of the dancefloor. And since then, he has committed his life to music.

Three decades later, he’s known as an artist constantly pushing techno to its next level, this by producing his own tracks, managing his first own label MB Elektronics (established in 2001), and of course, by travelling all around the world to make people dance and go crazy with his flawless technique and impeccable selection. When a night is in need of a dose of powerful beats and a deep-intense atmosphere, his’ is the name that needs to be summoned. And this is exactly how over the years he has landed in cities far away from his hometown, with Nairobi (Africa), Tokyo (Japan), Beijing (China), Los Angeles + New York (USA), Sydney (Australia) and Buenos Aires (Argentina) just as a -very- few examples. Yes, it is fair to say the globe has lived the Marco Bailey experience on each cardinal point.

During his career, he has released acclaimed singles, Eps and albums on labels like Primate, Drumcode, Bedrock, Intec, Arts etc, on each one of them demonstrating a forward thinking approach, and the desire to not just ignore, but break -or crush- the mold of what can be considered a trend in a certain moment. On each producion he stays 100% true to his instinct and beliefs, and that is an unbreakable pact with his heart.

Nowadays, as an innovator and an artist completely and permanently devoted to his craft, he’s at the helm of MATERIA, a concept that was born on 2015 as a successful event dedicated to techno in its purest form.

Gabriel Moraes
--------------
Exploring uncharted territories of techno, Brazilian sound explorer Gabriel Moraes approaches his expeditions in a noticeably unique way. Sitting restlessly between the heated Berlin style, progressive and a good measure of rave, the tone is catching on, eyes widen and ears prick when the robust sound rumbles through. Gabriel’s most impressive feat to date is “Die Hölle”. Released through Ukrainian imprint Dear Deer Records, the impressions left on the global scene were phenomenal. Played and praised by Eric Prydz, Solomun, ANNA, D-nox, Victor Ruiz, Coyu and many more of the world’s most influential artists, it became clear that people were recognizing this soaring act, with Eric Prydz vocalizing his support for Die Hölle and Gabriel in a radio interview.

A keen collaborator, Gabriel’s recent single on Nin92wo was developed in cahoots with vocalist Haptic and producer Rafael Cerato. 2018 has seen remixes of Die Hölle by Dusty Kid, Citizen Kain, Niko Schwind and Boy Next Door, with previous years involving remixers KALIL, Jiggler and Victor Enzo. Gabriel wearing the shoes of a remixer himself has put his touch on productions by artists such as KALIL, Taya, Trockensaft, Vitor Munhoz, Rocksted, with his remix of Ark-E-Tech & Käse Kochen’s “We Wombats” on Bassic Records globally premiered by Victor Ruiz at ADE 2017.
