D A R U D E
www.darude.com / DRD Music / Finland
Multi-platinum award winning producer and international artist Darude, has to date sold over 5 million records worldwide and is recognised by many as one of the most influential artists to emerge from the dance scene in the past decade.
Hailing from a small village called Hinnerjoki in Finland the patriotic Finn now resides with his family in his second home Atlanta (America), a move that compliments his ever growing popularity in the US. A seasoned professional in his own right, through travelling the globe he has been fortunate to experience many cultures and see some of the worlds most beautiful and awe-inspiring destinations; believing this education of life has been a catalyst for much of his recent music.
Although famed for the global smash 'Sandstorm', which became the world's best selling 12" vinyl of 2000, Ville Virtanen aka Darude has had a long and successful career as both a live performer and club DJ, banking an average of 140, 000 air miles per year. Alongside 10 years working as a producer and engineer with nothing but achievement to look back on.
Having released numerous chart topping hits, three artist albums and through his remix work he has brought singles such as ATB feat. York - 'The Fields of Love and The Thrillseekers - 'Synaesthesia to a mainstream audience, gaining him undiminished support from industry leaders such as Radio 1's Pete Tong, Judge Jules, Ferry Corsten and Paul Oakenfold.
Whether in his studio in America or Finland, recent times have seen him cement further his reputation as one of the most innovative and exciting figures in modern dance music. With his distinctive styles of progressive and uplifting trance, his music continues to get talked about by both music fans and critics alike with recent support coming from DJ Magazine and Billboard magazine to name but two.
Constantly ahead of the game, Darude was one of the first DJs to embrace MP3's when he released 'Sandstorm' in late 1999, and also released several tracks to data zip drives in early 2000.
Although having set the benchmark for a generation of producers with 'Sandstorm', the ever modest professional is a strong supporter of new talent and music. So much so that he recently took the decision to set up his own imprint to push not just his own music, but also that of artists whom he believes in. With a long list of achievements already to his name, Darude could be forgiven for resting on his lot, but instead 2010 will see him busy as ever by encompassing a staggering amount of new projects, including a mix album project (in planning), several new singles and remixes, as well as his new record label and a world tour.

Bear
I started spinning house music back in 2000 after attending parties and bouncing for numerous events. I spin a mixture of all types of different house. If I had to classify what I play I would probably say I play bangin' house. I take Chicago, disco, techno, funky and whatever else I can think of and mix it all together. My biggest motivation for playing is the people, if it wasn't for you I wouldn't be doing this. Keep the vibe alive:
White Raven
white_raven started out mixing & mastering when he was 14 under his father's hard rock record label, his influences range from black metal to classic trance. Producing tracks at the age of 15 white_raven has been growing his musical talents ever since. Turning 17 he starting mixing his track all over the northwest, having a hard time playing in clubs because of age limitations, he started out playing raves and house parties, eventually starting the promotion company and online radio station SupportHardcore.com with a few friends, throwing a number of raves and releasing successful tracks, he took a break from the scene for a couple years, and now he's back playing weekly show all over the NorthWest and working on new album being released this coming winter.
