Somna
AVA Recordings
In an ever expanding global electronic music scene with new artists appearing every day, it takes nothing short of raw talent to stand out. While Somna is somewhat of a relatively fresh name to the trance scene, his discography and accolades read that of a seasoned veteran, which comes as no surprise considering his career spans over a decade in the scene under different guises and co-writing / production projects behind the scenes. His singles can be found on a few of the biggest trance labels in the world including Armada Music, Future Sound Of Egypt, AVA Recordings, Black Hole Recordings, Perfecto and Go On Air Recordings.
As a performing artist, Somna fuses together traditional mixing with current technologies in a way that creates an atmosphere for fans into a journey of what trance is truly about. His experiences with prior aliases over the years has led to performances at Global Gathering, Creamfields, Coloursfest, Eden (Ibiza), The Arches (Scotland), LoveFest (USA), and shows across Canada, UK, USA, Spain, Australia and New Zealand.
Just a peek into support from the worlds top trance DJs includes regular premieres on universally popular podcasts such as A State Of Trance, Group Therapy, Corstens Countdown, Global DJ Broadcast and more. Recognition from A-list DJs includes Armin Van Buuren, Above & Beyond, Ferry Corsten, Markus Schulz, Paul Van Dyk, Gareth Emery, Andy Moor, TyDi, Lange, Cosmic Gate, Paul Oakenfold, Guiseppe Ottaviani, Heatbeat, Mark Sixma and many more. The abundance of support stands as a true testament to the quality of Somnas music.
As a prolific multi-genre producer and engineer, his track alongside Andy Moor One Thing About You featuring Amy Kirkpatrick, reached #1 on Beatport and stayed in the top 10 for three weeks. Adding to Somnas Beatport success, One Thing About You won the 2015 award for the most streamed trance track on Beatport.
2015 also saw multiple Somna releases reach the top 10 on Beatport, with tracks featuring the likes of Jennifer Rene & Michele C. To mark Lange Recordings 200th release, Somna was invited to team up with Johnny Yono and Monoverse. The result was Hijackers, a triple threat labor of love which reached #3 on the Beatport charts.
Already having had an outstanding previous year, 2016 continued strong, with no sign of slowing down. Somna made two label debuts (Armada Captivating and Future Sound Of Egypt Excelsior) and joined the trance elite as he had the honor of mixing a 3 disc compilation alongside Andy Moor for AVA Recordings' 10 year anniversary. Coupled by a truly rare triple play on A State Of Trance (episode #791), 2016 has been Somna's best year to date.
As the label manager, A&R and co-owner of AVA Recordings, Somna continues to make strides while playing an important role within the scene. His monthly radio show entitled Reanimate Music broadcasts every second Monday on Afterhours.fm, the #1 trance radio station in the world. The coming year looks nothing short of bright for Somna with forthcoming releases scheduled on Armada Captivating, Future Sound Of Egypt Excelsior, Raz Nitzan Music as well as AVA Recordings, and he is delighted to share a plethora of new music with fans in 2017.
