Moska feat. Antoine Becks
Insane (Original Mix)
Moska
Cali, Colombia
 
 
 
Born in Cali, Colombia in September 1993, Moska fell in
love with Dance music by watching a Sensation White
video in Amsterdam at the age of 14. He then decided to use
his family's 1Gb desktop computer to create remixes and
mashups of other artist tracks; mainly inspired by Michael
Jackson and the Dirty Dutch sound.
Daniel Amezquita aka "Moska" got his nick name from high
school friends. In Colombia, the word "moska" describes a
"hyped", "alert" and "intuitive" person, and that's what
Daniel Amezquita is all about.
In 2011 he remixed Jordan Ferrer's “I Need You" and
immediately caught world class producer Laidback Luke´s
attention via his blog and he supported him playing the
track on his shows.
By using simple blackberry earphones and pure talent, he
produced Calvin Harris ft. Rihanna's "We Found Love"
bootleg, a production that grabbed the infamous Tiesto's
attention after listening to Luke play it in Miami at club LIV,
one of the world's most famous nightclubs.
Thanks to Tijs significant support after playing his records
at Ultra Music Festival 2012, Moska's talent roof topped. Not
long after Ultra Music Festival 2012 ended, he remixed
Laidback Luke ft. Wynter Gordon's track "Speak Up" for MixMash Records.
After his enormous success with "Speak
Up", Tiesto gave him the opportunity to remix "Las Vegas",
the bonus track for the new Club Life Miami CD released by
Musical Freedom, delivering a "Bomb".
Moska's music has been featured in several radio shows
and Club life podcast along with Axwell ft. Steve Edward's
"Watch the Sunrise" bootleg.
Aside from the big names mentioned, Moska has also had
the privilege of having his tracks played by other world
known DJs like Congorock, and Angger Dimas.
Pure talent can't be stopped and we will definitely hear a lot
from this young talent. 2012 is set to turn up the heat even
more as Moska is working in remixes for some of the
biggest artists and producers in electronic music as he.
 
 
Serge Devant & Rachael Starr
You and me


 Serge Devant
New York , United States
 
 
Serge Devant developed an insatiable taste for electronic music during the 1990’s explosion that saw acts like The Prodigy; Chemical Brothers , Underworld , K.L.F and DJs like Sasha and John Digweed, Danny Tenaglia , Paul van Dyk and Carl Cox blow up around the world. As a resident of New York City Serge had the unique opportunity to visit Twilo – the club considered the epicenter of America’s renewed interest in dance music – on a regular basis. It was at this famed club where Serge’s career path became clear…he was going to be the DJ.

Serge’s DJ career began at New York’s legendary Tunnel where he honed his craft and learned how to properly work the room. By 2006 Serge launched his own residency at Crobar and consistently wowed fans with his hallmark high-octane and uplifting sets. At the same time Serge started writing his own material and made his presence felt in a big way with his anthemic take on Beloved’s “Sweet Harmony” in 2007. Soon thereafter, Serge’s name and brand recognition grew to a point where his name even appeared on his own exclusive Coca-Cola bottle as a part of the company’s Beijing Olympics campaign.

Led by the smash single “Addicted,” Serge’s first album, Wanderer, debuted in June 2009. The track became an instant classic hitting #1 across Europe and received regular airplay from Sirius XM, Kiss FM and Radio 1. While Wanderer was a far reaching collection of dance, song based and even chill out tracks, Serge’s forthcoming sophomore album is more dance oriented and pays homage to some of the artists that had a profound influence on shaping him as an artist. The first single to come from the new album, a remake of The KLF’s “3AM Eternal,” is already taking the world by storm having become a mainstay in the sets of the worlds most respected DJs.

Emanuele Carrieri aka Dankann
Fascinated by the trance mood and influenced by the sound of progressive house, Dankann mixes different styles together to create impressive, mind blowing tracks. His natural talent and passion for music are expressed when he states that the quest for the perfect melody is crucial to his productions as the right melody has the power of mirroring and amplifying emotions.
