Coming in from Atlanta, Georgia Chad Shearer joins the conversation to discuss the evolving role of public relations in electronic music and large scale festival culture. As a partner at Caren West PR, Chad oversees the firm’s music festival division and works with events across the United States, helping shape how festivals, artists, and brands communicate their stories to audiences and media outlets.
Chad explains how festival publicity has evolved beyond traditional press coverage into a broader ecosystem that includes digital media strategy, influencer engagement, and year round storytelling. Successful festivals now operate like full media brands, building anticipation months in advance through coordinated campaigns that combine artist announcements, visual identity, social content, and partnerships with key publications.
The conversation explores how artists can better position themselves within festival lineups by understanding the PR pipeline behind major events. Chad breaks down the relationship between booking teams, marketing departments, and publicity teams, explaining how timing, narrative, and audience alignment influence which artists gain momentum in a crowded field.
He also reflects on the long term value of authentic storytelling in music promotion. Whether working with emerging artists or globally recognized festivals, strong narratives help audiences connect with the people and culture behind the music. In an industry driven by constant releases and nonstop content, meaningful storytelling remains one of the most powerful tools for building lasting artist careers.

Broadcasting from London, UK, Nicky Roland joins for an in depth conversation on rebuilding a music career, launching independent labels, and developing AI powered marketing infrastructure for modern artists. With roots in the late 80s and early 90s underground scene, Nicky shares how early major label setbacks led him to step away from music before ultimately returning stronger with full creative and business control.
He walks through the evolution of Ananki & Kronos, explaining why he split the label into Gold and Black divisions to clearly serve soulful house audiences on TrackSource and harder tech house and techno listeners on Beatport. Drawing from decades of experience in tech and advertising, he outlines the importance of real promotional effort in a saturated marketplace where thousands of tracks are released daily.
The conversation expands into entrepreneurship, ownership versus corporate reach, and the realities of modern pay to play marketing. Nicky introduces ANC Promo, his AI driven promotional platform built to automate press releases, social media content, cover art generation, hook analysis, playlist swaps, and upcoming email campaign tools. His philosophy is clear - AI should enhance workflow, not replace human creativity. Imperfection, experimentation, and happy studio accidents still define great music.

Broadcasting from Houston, Texas, Barry Coffing joins for a deep dive into the realities of music licensing, supervision, and artist development. With decades of experience as a songwriter, producer, performer, and founder of musicsupervisor.com and We Get Artists, Barry breaks down how he built a global licensing platform that now houses hundreds of thousands of tracks and services major film studios and television networks.
He shares the origin story of creating a searchable music database after struggling to find songs for indie films, eventually raising funding to build a powerful search engine that allows supervisors to pinpoint highly specific musical needs in seconds. Along the way, he explains why “good” songs often place more than “great” ones, how music must enhance a scene without distracting from dialogue, and why emotional universality in lyrics increases placement potential.
Barry pulls back the curtain on sync realities, from replacing major artists last minute on film soundtracks to navigating soundtrack buyouts, agency politics, and the importance of instrumental and alternate mixes. He emphasizes that success in sync is less about selling and more about solving creative problems quickly and professionally.
Beyond licensing, Barry highlights Sustainable Artists and Springboard Fest, where emerging talent receives mentorship from industry veterans and performance coaches. His message to artists is clear - increase your catalog, protect your rights, build your social presence, and treat every track like a lottery ticket with multiple pathways to win.

Broadcasting from Dundee, Oregon, just outside Portland, Will Vance joins for a thoughtful industry conversation that spans technology, media, labels, and what it truly means to “make it” in music. As Managing Editor of Magnetic Magazine, Will reflects on his unconventional entry into the electronic space, using writing as his foot in the door while developing his own skills as a producer. His journey through blogs, liner notes, marketing roles, and ultimately into leading day-to-day operations at Magnetic highlights the value of persistence, timing, and simply being reliable.
The discussion explores the rapid evolution of music technology, from mailing demo tapes decades ago to today’s frictionless digital distribution. While access has never been easier, Will stresses that opportunity alone does not equal success. He challenges the idea that “making it” only means headlining festivals, instead redefining it as creative fulfillment, sustainability, and staying connected to the process.
A major theme centers on record labels and artist relationships. Will speaks candidly about horror stories many artists face and emphasizes that labels must go beyond uploading tracks. Real value comes from advocacy, thoughtful A&R work, meaningful promo networks, and genuinely going to bat for developing talent.
Looking ahead, he notes the resurgence of bass-driven genres such as drum and bass and deeper dubstep, hinting at expansion plans for Magnetic’s label division. Through it all, his core advice remains simple yet powerful: show up on time, be easy to work with, protect your music, and stay obsessed with the craft.

In this wide-ranging Virtual Sessions conversation, Cosmic Gate’s Bossi reflects on nearly two decades of evolution in electronic music, from early club residencies to global touring and long-form artistic storytelling. The discussion opens with a look back at one of the duo’s earliest appearances, highlighting how underground club culture, extended DJ sets, and patience in musical development helped shape their identity long before short-form content dominated the landscape.
A major focus centers on the Perspectives project, an ambitious multi-part release strategy designed to give music time to breathe. Rather than rushing tracks into an overcrowded release cycle, Cosmic Gate chose to unfold their work in chapters, allowing fans to connect more deeply with each phase while the duo continued touring worldwide. This approach also gave them space to observe how their sound naturally evolved over time.
The conversation expands into the changing role of DJs and producers, touching on the shift from hidden DJ booths to main-stage spectacles, the pressure of social media visibility, and the challenge of staying authentic in a fast-moving industry. Bossi emphasizes that storytelling, musical integrity, and long-form experiences still matter, even as algorithms and trends push toward speed and brevity.
The episode closes with reflections on technology, AI, and the importance of continuous learning. From early production limitations to today’s limitless tools, Cosmic Gate’s perspective underscores adaptability without losing artistic purpose. The dialogue ultimately reinforces a timeless message: meaningful music, given time and care, will always find its audience.

About Cosmic Gate -
From their very first single, through to the release of their visionary, 2.0 ‘MOSAIIK’ albums, Grammy nominated duo Cosmic Gate have proved to be a musical union without parallel. A chance, late-90s encounter in a Cologne studio set them on the path to becoming Germany’s most enduringly successful electronic music pairing. Since, each and every single release has hit the million-streams mark, with classics like ‘Exploration Of Space’ being Spotify’d over 40million times.
Their diverse remixography meanwhile includes everyone from illustrious Hollywood composers like James Horner (Avatar/Titanic), to in-scene demigods like Armin van Buuren and Tiësto. Nic & Bossi’s behind-decks-chemistry has pushed floors to supernova in a now uncountable number of countries. They’ve reigned over electronic music capitals and spun the veritable A-through-Z of major festivals. In the process they’ve picked up a GRAMMY nomination in 2019’s Best Remix category; became the highest climber on a DJ Mag’s Top 100 chart and racked up a litany of other awards and plaudits.
Driven by their 11 critically renowned albums (most recently ‘MOSAIIK’), singles like ‘Nothing To Hide’, ‘Hear Me Out’ and ‘Your Mind’, and scene-defining classics like ‘am2pm’, ‘Fall Into You’, ‘Fire Wire’ and ‘Exploration of Space’, their star on dance music’s walk of fame has long since been laid.
As DJs, kinetically bouncing off one another’s energy, week in, week out, Cosmic Gate continue to take floors to their highest heights. They’ve smashed the biggest festivals in all four corners, including Tomorrowlands, EDCs, Ultras, Creamfields, Untold, ASOTs, Transmissions and Dreamstates. In North America they’ve brought their inimitable sound to EZoo, IleSoniq, Beyond Wonderland, Veld, Chasing Summer and many more. Roadblocking clubs like Space, Governors Island NY, L.A.’s Palladium, Exchange & Academy venues, Washington’s Echostage, and Great Hall at Brooklyn’s Avant Gardner has become the pair’s S.O.P. Their WMC/MMW Miami Sunset Cruises have long since passed into clubbing legend and the groups famously sold out a 2000 capacity solo show on the island of Honolulu.
Grammy nomination: the final month of 2018 Nic & Bossi were nominated for their first Grammy award. Selected in the Best Remixer category, their work on Gabriel & Dresden and Sub Teal’s ‘Only Road’ (Anjunabeats) drew nomination praise from the academy. The remix was further described by DJ Mag as “masterful”, with “alchemic sequencing”, a “shrewd use of context” and was “wily” in its “sound design.”
Livestreams: in 2020, Cosmic Gate began a series of high-concept livestreams from around the globe. These immediately captured the imagination of a then-in-lockdown public, with each stream delivering millions of views and quadrupling their YouTube subscribership to over 300k. Panoramically backdropped by awe inspiring sunsets, they livestreamed from rooftops, beaches and villas, including locations such as Puerto Vallarta, Mexico, Bali, Indonesia and by Es Vedra on Ibiza. By 2023 their New York City high-rise Sunset Set had drawn 15M views, while their Best Of 2020 from Miami had racked up 11M.
In 2021,”to honour their creativity and seminal influence” EDM.com named Cosmic Gate’s Miami Open Skies set as one of the “10 best performances of the year in electronic dance music.” They went on to comment: “shifting gears yet again, their ‘MOSAIIK – Chapter One’ album showcased a darker, more techno-influenced sound and their Miami Open Skies DJ set in March (2021) moonlighted as the opening act to those new sounds.”
C.G. Productions & Albums: In their homeland, Cosmic Gate has maintained a high level of mainstream success, charting no fewer than 7 top 40 singles. Further afield ‘Fire Wire’ signalled the pair’s arrival, becoming a pan-European chart smash and hitting the top ten in a number of countries.
Most recently evidenced by their ground-breaking ‘MOSAIIK’ LPs, albums continue to play a significant part in their production career. At the turn of the decade, the twin releases introduced a new ethic to their music. It was one that (Cosmic Gate observed at the time) was “deeper, more progressive and song-led”, while also being “less symmetric and as intensely floor-focused as our previous material”. This, in turn, reflected the broader range of musical tastes that’d later come to inspire the pair.
‘MOSAIIK’ tracks like ‘Blame’ and ‘Nothing To Hide’ from Chapter One and ‘Hear Me Out’ from its second Chapter rapidly became some of Cosmic Gate's biggest streaming hits to date. Opening the group up to a wider audience, the albums also gave rise to their most extensive tour to date – one that by October of 2023 had encompassed 60+ dates globally and had taken them to 20 + countries.
MOSAIIK was preceded by ‘20 Years’, which was released in August of 2019. Subtitled [‘Forward Ever Backward Never’], it included new Cosmic Gate productions, as well as 2.0 renovations of CG anthems from their first two decades together. Further, it featured reworks of tunes personally inspirational to CG, as well as new takes from other artists on classic Cosmic moments. Its first single releases brought a brace of Beatport hits with the MINT-playlisted ‘Come With Me’ and the “profound” (said DJ Mag) “9/10” scored ‘Need To Be Loved’, both hitting the #1 position.
’20 Years’ itself was heralded by the two ‘Chapters’ of the longplayer ‘Materia’ – the release of which musically bookended the group’s 2017. It was the album mothership for a clutch of new Cosmic Gate singles and releases. Among them were ‘Fall Into You’, ‘Edge Of Life’, the Beatport #1 ‘am2pm’, ‘AR’ with Markus Schulz, ‘Dynamic’ with Ferry Corsten (“melody and grit in equal proportions” said DJ Mag’s 8/10 review) and others.
The period 2015 – 2016 saw Cosmic Gate continue to embrace the collaboration medium through a number of high-profiles co-production projects. Among them was ‘Embargo’, which was the result of studio time shared with Armin van Buuren. The track was subsequently featured on the latter’s 2015 album, ‘Embrace’. A year later Nic & Bossi teamed up with Ferry Corsten to record ‘Event Horizon’. Garnering substantial praise from fans, DJs and press alike, it topped Beatport’s Trance chart in October of 2016.
Released in the summer of 2014, Cosmic Gate used their sixth album ‘Start To Feel’ to inspire fans to experience electronic music in a “broader and more complete way”. It’s first single – the Eric Lumiere-sung ‘Falling Back’ – was described as “9.5/10” scoring “anthem in a can” by the UK’s DJ Mag. Further singles including ‘So Get Up’, ‘Yai (Here We Go Again’) and ‘Fair Game’ cemented its reputation.
In 2011 the duo released ‘Wake Your Mind’. It produced ‘Be Your Sound’ – a single that MIXMAG suggested: “finally unseats ‘Fire Wire’ as Cosmic Gate’s best-known-for track”. With its official video sitting at 18 million views on YouTube, it bagged an IDMA nomination in 2012, (with the JES-sung ‘Flying Blind’ following suit a year later).
Cosmic Gate’s album movements began with ‘Rythm & Drums’ (in 2001), ‘No More Sleep’ which followed a year later and ‘Earth Mover’ in ‘06. The latter was the album platform for the club hits ‘Analog Feel’, ‘Should Have Known’ and the IDMA-nominated ‘I Feel Wonderful’. ‘Sign of the Times’ arrived 3 years later, bringing the vocal anthem ‘Body of Conflict’, a further IDMA-nod for ‘Not Enough Time’ and catalysed (a then unheard of) 43-place leap up DJ Mag’s Top 100 chart. It also edged the pair towards a more open-plan electronic music style (later to fully manifes

From his early musical roots playing guitar to fully committing to electronic music, he explains how following intuition and emotion has guided every major decision in his career.

Amlex breaks down his creative process, explaining how strategy, mental focus, and experimentation all play key roles in shaping his sound.

Broadcasting from Miami during the height of Art Week, Leo Oliver shares a wide-ranging conversation that captures the intensity of modern club culture, career growth, and personal balance. Based in one of the world’s most active nightlife cities, Leo explains how Miami’s constant flow of art, music, and international visitors fuels both creativity and opportunity.

Releases on respected labels, including Black Lizard and an upcoming project with Glasgow Underground, marked turning points where industry recognition became tangible. Support from artists like James Hype and Tiësto reinforced his belief that consistency and authenticity matter more than chasing trends. His sound remains rooted in tech house, driven by high energy, groove, and positivity.
The discussion moves deeper into the realities of the industry, touching on management, label relationships, and the importance of having the right team. Leo emphasizes that effective management is not about instant bookings but long-term artist development, positioning, and access to the right environments. Mental health also plays a central role in his philosophy, as he stresses the importance of stepping away, staying physically active, and disconnecting from constant pressure.
Looking forward, Leo embraces emerging technology while remaining cautious, viewing AI as a creative tool rather than a replacement for human emotion. His outlook is clear: respect the craft, protect your well-being, and keep building with intention.

From Bari, Italy, rising techno artist Andrew Mills shares a story rooted in discipline, passion, and cultural identity. Beginning his journey at nine years old and learning to DJ on vinyl under the mentorship of Frankie Polaris, Andrew built his foundation through technique, repetition, and a deep respect for the craft. His artistic identity combines cinematic intensity, hypnotic rhythms, and emotional storytelling, reflecting both his Albanian and Italian heritage.
As a producer, Andrew takes pride in crafting tracks that reflect a raw, powerful energy. His upcoming release Mescaline showcases his evolving sound and marks another milestone in his journey with Origami Management, who have helped guide his career and connect him with labels worldwide. With more than a dozen releases spanning techno mainstage, raw, and hypnotic styles, he views each production as a chapter of his personal and artistic transformation.
Onstage, Andrew becomes a different version of himself. Reserved in daily life, he unlocks emotion through music, feeding off the crowd’s energy while delivering sets designed as immersive journeys. Memorable moments, such as playing an unreleased track for the first time at Ministry of Sound and watching the crowd erupt, fuel his dedication to long hours in the studio and international travel.
Despite a demanding schedule, he remains grounded through family, cultural pride, and the desire to bring his sound to countries where techno is celebrated as a way of life. For Andrew, each trip is a mission: to grow, evolve, and share the story behind every beat.

About Andrew Mills -
I’m Andrew Mills, an international DJ and producer making waves with my raw, hypnotic, and mainstage techno. My music blends powerful rhythms, immersive atmospheres, and relentless energy, and over the years I’ve developed a style that is unmistakably mine.
I’ve released tracks on top labels like PYRO Records, Gold Lizard Records, Clipper Records, Yeiskomp Records, and Café de Anatolia. Key tracks such as Overdrive, Sonic Community, Break The Silence, and Power of Love have gained thousands of Spotify streams and received support from international DJs, radio shows, and major festival playlists, including Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike and Blasterjaxx’s Maximize.
I recently signed my first record deal with a US label, which means my music will now reach audiences all over the world. My latest release, SPACE, coming out on November 26th, is a real bomb—it will give everyone a true sense of who Andrew Mills is as an artist.
This year at ADE Amsterdam was incredible. I had a huge boost in visibility, performing multiple times and getting the chance to really showcase my skills thanks to Leandro’s support. It was an unforgettable milestone in my career.
I’ve also collaborated with Andrea Casta, Café de Anatolia, and Marquee, which has helped me grow my international network. My career is very active right now, with new releases scheduled for the end of this month and mid-next month, showing my commitment to pushing techno forward.
Driven by “positive rage” and relentless determination, I’m not just a DJ or producer—I’m an artist dedicated to creating unforgettable, high-energy experiences that connect with audiences around the world.

From Florence, Italy, veteran DJ and producer Remo Giugni joins to reflect on nearly three decades of dedication to music and performance. His story begins in the 1980s when, at age 13, he stumbled upon a DJ setup at a friend’s birthday party and instantly became fascinated by the lights, vinyl, and energy of the experience. That moment ignited a lifelong passion that would lead him from bedroom setups to the international stage.
Starting his career in Tuscany’s club circuit, Remo evolved through every major shift in the music industry, from vinyl to digital to AI-enhanced production. He emphasizes that adaptation is essential for survival, drawing parallels between his early record-spinning days and today’s streaming-driven environment. For Remo, success comes not from chasing trends but from blending authenticity with innovation, adapting to change while preserving emotional connection with the audience.
He speaks passionately about the balance between technology and artistry, cautioning that while AI and new devices can expand creativity, they must never replace the human feeling behind the decks. His philosophy centers on the DJ as a storyteller, comparing a proper set to a gourmet dinner—crafted course by course for the listener’s experience. Remo insists that audiences should trust the DJ’s journey rather than control it, advocating for education and respect within club culture.
Remo also highlights the importance of working with Origami Management, crediting Leandro Da Silva and Alessandro Molinari for helping him reach new professional heights. For him, fame and fortune are secondary to freedom—the freedom to perform authentically, refuse bad gigs, and continue living a life fully immersed in music.

From Tuscany, Italy, rising DJ and producer HAXHIA joins to share his story of passion, discipline, and musical heritage. At just 23 years old, he has already carved out a unique sound that blends disco, funk, and tech house influences while staying true to his Albanian and Greek roots. His journey began at age 13 when he discovered his uncle’s old CDJs, sparking a fascination that quickly grew into a lifelong pursuit. What started as curiosity became a deep creative calling, driven by emotion and the desire to connect through rhythm.
HAXHIA describes music as a universal language—an emotional exchange between artist and audience. Onstage, he transforms from a reserved personality into an expressive performer, channeling pure energy to craft an experience rather than a setlist. Influenced by Bob Sinclar and the timeless Defected Records sound, he aims to bring melody and heart back to the dance floor, reminding listeners that authenticity matters more than hype.
He speaks on the challenges of today’s fast-paced release culture, where pressure to produce weekly tracks often overshadows quality. HAXHIA believes in slowing down to refine his craft, working closely with Origami Management on both production and artistry. His recent track RM merges Balkan flutes with tech house grooves, showcasing his ability to blend cultural tradition with modern innovation.
For HAXHIA, success is simple: emotional connection, creative honesty, and the joy of seeing a crowd move as one.

About HAXHIA -
HAXHIA is an Italian Gen Z music producer and DJ whose journey began with a deep passion for the piano. From a young age, he took private lessons and quickly set his sights on becoming a professional DJ. Driven by his love for House music, he earned spots on some of the top stages across Italy.
His debut release featured vocals by Nino Lucarelli, and soon after he remixed Joe T Vannelli's iconic track "Leave Me Baby", giving it a fresh Italo House twist.
A graduate of SAE Institute Milan in Electronic Music Production, HAXHIA recently dropped a collaboration with ATCG on Time Records.
From childhood, he started delving into the world of music, fueled by a strong passion for the piano. At a young age, he decided to take private lessons from a local professor.
His dream was to become a professional DJ, and at the age of 16, he successfully claimed a spot at the console of one of the finest clubs in his area. Driven by a profound love for House music, even while underage, he graced some of the best national stages.

Toronto-based producer and label owner Peter Mac shares his story of transformation from a live event promoter to an acclaimed figure in soulful and deep house. When the pandemic hit in 2020 and his events agency came to a halt, Peter used the time to learn music production from scratch, watching hundreds of tutorials and applying his background in musical theory to his new craft. His passion led to releases across multiple labels, culminating in the creation of his own imprint, Barking Mad Music.
The label, inspired by Peter’s love for deep and Latin house, showcases both his own tracks and collaborations with emerging artists, particularly from Mexico. His dedication to high-quality house music reflects a lifelong love for the genre’s roots, from Chicago’s 90s era to its current global resurgence. Peter recounts promoting early house legends such as Frankie Knuckles, David Morales, and Carl Cox, describing the thrill of helping shape dance culture during its formative years in Europe.
The discussion dives deep into the modern state of the music industry, exploring social media burnout, inflated egos, and how commercialism has diluted artistic authenticity. Peter and Darran agree that while technology has transformed accessibility, it has also diminished attention spans and organic connection on the dance floor. Despite these challenges, Peter remains optimistic that true house music endures through its passion-driven community.
He closes with a heartfelt message to fans: seek quality music, dig deeper, and reconnect with the underground roots that made dance culture so powerful in the first place.

About Peter Mac -
Canadian native Peter Mac is an innovative music producer who is growing in strength and popularity in the music business. His musical background arises from years of experience as an owner-operator of his independently owned music agency as a promoter and booker for house music DJs and events.
Additionally, Peter attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, which served as a foundation for his musical education and training. In 2020 when Covid erupted, his agency came to a sudden halt. This disruption turned out to be a significant turning point for Peter and this is when he found his light to follow his dream and begin making music of his own.
Admiring his new found career (at 55 years of age), Peter invested in the musical software and hardware so he could quickly get his new profession off the ground. With this anticipation, he was eager to start using his musical imagination and could not wait to get his creative juices flowing in order to start flourishing in his new profession.
In the learning of how to create and advance as a music producer and dj, Peter found it fun to figure out all the buttons and knobs required in order for him to develop and progress. With his heart finally in the right place, the music just seemed to flow rather effortlessly and suddenly everything finally fell into place to be able to launch into his new found career.
Time travel to 2023, Peter has already launched his own record label that’s quickly gaining high recognition, called Barking Mad Music. He was swiftly sorted by numerous labels and signed in the first few months of making his own productions.
His tracks have been released on well-known labels like: QUANTIZE RECORDINGS, Inward, Plastik People, Native Music Recordings, Vibe Boutique, Import Tracks, Open Bar, Little Jack, Black Riot, Phoenix Music, Pasqua, Heavy, Lump, Moiss Music, Hive, Soul Beach, Delve Deeper, Kolour, HOUPH, Monoside, Grooveland BR, Soul Room, Double Cheese, Be Adult, Mavek Recordings, Personal Belongings, Astrolife, Sonambulos, Deep Clicks, M-Sol Records, Chuggy Trax, Azucar Distribution and many more to come…..

From Verona, Italy, Andrea Casta joins to share his extraordinary musical journey blending electronic production, storytelling, and futuristic performance. Known as “The Violinist with the Lightsaber Bow,” Andrea has built a global career by merging technology and artistry. His performances combine live violin with electronic music and visual experiences, creating a captivating show that bridges the human and digital worlds.
He discusses his groundbreaking Space Violin Project, a multimedia saga that fuses music, narrative, and visuals into an immersive performance series. Each chapter of the project tells part of a larger story, a futuristic mission to save humanity through music. With shows across more than 30 countries and 200 performances per year, Andrea shares how his creative process evolved from classical training to producing his own tracks and cinematic soundscapes like Visions and A Way to Space.
Casta also dives into the balance between technology and emotion, stressing the importance of maintaining humanity in an increasingly digital world. He envisions future innovations that will allow artists to connect biometric data, heart rate, energy, emotion, directly to sound creation. Beyond his futuristic concepts, he stays grounded through simple joys: cooking, gardening, and spending time with his wife and dog, Rocket.
Whether performing underwater, in the Alps, or in front of 90,000 people at Circus Maximus, Andrea’s message remains the same, music is energy, and connection is everything.

From her studio in Miami to stages across the world, Amal Nemer brings an undeniable energy and emotional connection to her craft. In this conversation, she shares her journey from architecture to music, explaining how her creative instincts and love for sound led her to become a DJ and producer known for blending Arabic roots with modern tech house grooves. Her breakout came in 2021 with her debut track, signed by the legendary Nervous Records, which unexpectedly launched her career into motion.
Amal reflects on her early fears of performing live, recalling her trembling hands during her first show and how pushing through that fear became transformative. She credits her dedication, discipline, and belief in finishing every project as key to her evolution as an artist. Her music, often inspired by emotion and nostalgia, channels both her cultural background and her personal experiences. Tracks like Burning embody her philosophy that music has the power to heal, uplift, and unite people beyond language barriers.
Discussing her process, Amal emphasizes living life as an essential ingredient for creativity. Yoga, paddle sports, and time with friends help her recharge and remain grounded. She believes consistency, self-discipline, and living in the moment are vital to sustaining happiness and artistic flow.
Looking ahead, Amal’s ambition continues to grow, from her Manifest events to sharing stages with icons like Carl Cox. Her message to fans is clear: keep creating, never give up, and always chase joy through your passion.

About Andrew Mills -
My name is Andrea Mazzicone, but in the electronic music scene they know me as Andrew Mills. I grew up with techno in my veins and one clear vision: turning every set into a dark, intense, and powerful journey that speaks directly to the crowd. My music thrives on energy, tension, and impact — but above all, on humility. I never forget where I come from, and every stage, whether small or massive, holds the same value for me.
My DJ sets are crafted as total experiences: phenomenal, unique, and instantly recognizable, built for main stages, for shaking the floor, and for creating that real connection with the audience that truly leaves a mark. Every performance is a path — dark, cinematic, and explosive — always with respect for those who listen and for this profession.
I started at 16, playing private parties and the first clubs in my city. Then came bigger venues such as Palazzo Sparano, Orto Botanico Club, Solinio Club, and many iconic spots in the Bari scene, including Fabbrica del Beat, Bloom Beach Bar, 12Zero3 City Club, Circle Club, N.75 Cocktail Club, Spritzeria, Jackstore Social Club, Cala Cerasa, and more. My technical foundation grew at ASSO DJ, under the guidance of Frankye Polaris, who taught me discipline, precision, and respect for the craft.
With constant dedication, I eventually performed abroad: Ministry of Sound (London), Ocean Drive and Piropo Club (Ibiza), and multiple times at the Amsterdam Dance Event, playing at 50Hertz, Tequila Club, Smokey, and Concrete Matter. At ADE 2025 I played three incredible shows — pure chaos, pure energy — gaining huge visibility while reminding myself to stay grateful for every opportunity.
My production journey began in 2020 with Power of Love, which reached #13 on iTunes. Since then, I have released Lonely Way, Break the Silence, Overdrive, The Way of Your Life, Escape, Sonic Community, and more recently Vae Victis and Pure Idea, shaping a darker, more direct, cinematic mainstage techno sound. In 2025 I released SPACE on Peak Recordings, a sub-label of the prestigious Uprise Music, one of the most influential American labels in electronic music.
My sound has been supported by artists such as Angemi, Blasterjaxx, Don Diablo, Marco Carola, Richie Hawtin, Alex Nocera, Lumberjack, and many others. Every support is an honor — not a finish line, but a reminder to push even harder.
Today I lead my own format, UNIQUE: a project fully designed by me that fuses my techno vision with indie dance influences, creating a dark, intense, and memorable experience. My goal is to grow, evolve, and leave a mark on the international techno scene without ever losing the hunger, dedication, and humility that brought me here.
The journey has only just begun.
And I’m ready to push even harder.

Broadcasting live from Spinnin’ Records Studios in Amsterdam, Martin Jensen reconnects to discuss innovation, passion, and the evolving music landscape. Known for his hit singles and global reach, Martin opens up about Me Myself Online, his ongoing creative project that began during lockdown on Twitch and has now evolved into a high-quality YouTube series. The first episode, filmed aboard one of the world’s largest container ships, the Mary Mærsk, symbolizes his ambition to blend music with unique global experiences.
He talks candidly about the hidden costs and complexity of live streaming, referencing how production logistics can reach tens of thousands of dollars just to go live—a challenge that helped him appreciate in-person performances even more. Despite his hectic schedule, Martin admits to having little routine or structure, joking about surviving on little sleep and a love for red wine over kale salads.
The discussion turns toward creativity and mental balance. When facing creative blocks, he shares that spontaneity—and occasionally a strong vodka Red Bull—helps break through stagnation. He emphasizes the importance of enjoying the process over chasing perfection, viewing each show as both a performance and a test of endurance.
Touching on AI, Dolby Atmos, and streaming economics, Martin sees technology as both opportunity and caution. He values authenticity and artistry over shortcuts, preferring hands-on creation. For him, success isn’t measured in numbers or fame but in fun, passion, and staying inspired. His advice to rising artists: do what feels right, stay true, and never forget why you started.
