Da Predator - Holland
Amsterdam based DJ Predator, a.k.a. Stephan Scheltema, had to deal with a rebellious, creative mind all his life. Lost in graffiti art during his childhood, he became intrigued by early Rap music, Breakbeats, Reggae and Electro. Over a period of six years, he managed to release more than sixty releases, most of them on labels such as Mokum, Ruffneck, Ruff EX, Cenobite and H2Oh. With the growth of the dance scene in general, Predator?s star was rising, providing him with more equipment and possibilities. Living his dream of expressing his musical thoughts on recordings, his enthusiasm earned him the status of label manager for one of Holland?s best selling labels, at the time owned by the reknowned record company XSV Music in Rotterdam. All his time and money he spent in and on his studio. Hit releases like Jiehaaaa, Pump Up The Vibe and Mind Of A Lunatic brought him recognition from around the globe, resulting in live performances and DJ bookings in worldwide, from Canada to Australia, from Russia to the United States, Germany, Holland, Swiss, the UK and more.
Evil Activities - Holland
Endymion - Holland
At the moment Endymion is one of the most popular hardcore artists in Holland. They were founded in 1997 in Wateringen (NL). Their first record was released on Supreme Intelligence in 1998. After many successful releases on Supreme Intelligence (Mind and body as one, We are the future, Demonsworld) more records followed on labels like Gangsta Audiovisuals, Bionic Recordings, D-Boy records, The Third Movement, Babyboom and Neophyte records.
Their DJ-sets can be described as hard, uplifting and energetic. They enjoy the music as much as the crowd! In june 2005 they will rock Australia for the second time. Make sure you are ready!
Be prepared for the unexpected....
BIOFORGE
Slowly but surely maturing his natural love for Hiphop and Breaks, these musical styles started to sneak into his productions. Although still using a steady beat, he more and more found himself applying sophisticated drum patterns to his tracks, giving them more funk and more speed. In 1998, longing for a new creative challenge, BioForge decided to have a major career change. From that moment on he wanted to present his dark, claustrophobic atmospheres to the Drum ?n Bass scene. The shift immediately proved to be a success. As Dutch imprints A New Dawn and Acetate Recordings were securing BioForg?s singles, UK labels such as 5HQ / Formation were quickly snatching up pairs of their own. In 2001, he joined one of the most prestigeous Dutch crews named Bassground and was voted best Dutch Drum ?n Bass producer in 2002.
