Many of their production work has appeared on some the most highly respected compilations released, in particular <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Sasha &amp; Digweed’s ‘Northern Exposure - Expeditions’,</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;"> Carl Cox’s ‘F.A.C.T</span>.’ and <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: bold;">Anthony Pappa’s ‘Renaissance</span>’. </span></span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Pako &amp; Frederik first crossed paths in 1992, through an introduction by a mutual friend.

Being adopted by Amsterdam's <strong>Outland Records</strong>, just before their period of grandeur, Jaimy was responsible for half of all the music coming out of the Outland studios. He collaborated with many Dutch DJ’s, and engineered most of the other dance floor smashes.<br /><br />After meeting his musical partner Kenny D - <strong>Jaimy &amp; Kenny D.</strong> released most of their stuff with <strong>Black Hole Recordings</strong>, but also signed tracks and projects to <strong>United</strong>, <strong>Combined Forces</strong> and Paul Oakenfold's <strong>Perfecto</strong> label. Their smash hit “<strong>Keep On Touchin' Me</strong>”, got picked up and reworked by Erick Morill's Subliminal, and has been signed to <strong>Skint Records/Loaded</strong> for a UK re-release. They’ve remixed acts as Halo Varga, Lil’ Devious and Way Out West. 2001 saw the birth of Jaimy &amp; Kenny D’s own label, <strong>Fatal Tracks</strong>, administered and distributed by Black Hole.<br /><br />Jaimy's style is best described as progressive tribal house, very groovy with a lot of samba and tribal rhythms. His sets are a combination of groovy house with dark, sexy beats, vocals, lots of percussion and old classics that bring a great energy onto the dance floor.<br /><br />Jaimy organizes his own Label night “<strong>Fatal Music presents Drum Mode</strong>” every month at different locations in Amsterdam and he holds a residency at the leading gay-event called Joystick Amsterdam.<br /><br />Besides dj-ing, Jaimy is owner of the Fatal Music Group consisting of several labels like <strong>Fatal Music</strong> and <strong>Drum Mode</strong>. Through his labels, Jaimy will release his solo materials, projects with other artists and producers and Fatal Music will represent him as a DJ and Drum Mode will be another outlet for Jaimy’s solo productions. Already as from the beginning of both labels, they’re getting massive support by industry hero’s as <strong>Danny Tenaglia</strong>, <strong>DJ Vibe</strong>, <strong>Victor Calderone</strong> and <strong>Superchumb</strong>o, <strong>Chus &amp; Ceballos</strong>, Tedd Patterson and Luca Ricci.<div><br /></div><div><div><a href="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/music/StellarMusic31_Jaimy_Pride_2007Mix.mp3">Download Mix</a></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><a href="pcast://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital">Subscribe to this podcast with iTunes</a></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><a href="feed://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital">Subscribe via your RSS reader</a></span></div><div><br /></div><a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php" onmouseover="return addthis_open(this, '', '[URL]', '[TITLE]')" onmouseout="addthis_close()" onclick="return addthis_sendto()"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:medium;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><img src="http://s9.addthis.com/button1-addthis.gif" width="125" height="16" border="0" alt="" /></span></span></a><br /></div>0djkeishi@gmail.com (Stellar Music )http://stellarmusicdigital.blogspot.com/2007/07/stellar-music-31-saeed-younan-usa_30.htmlcreamdancestarpachaprogressivesaeed younansondosspace ibizayoshitoshiMon, 30 Jul 2007 09:46:00 -0700tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24347933.post-5230683249962997935<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://stellarmusic.co.uk/images/thumbs/30SaeedYounan.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 289px; height: 289px;" src="http://stellarmusic.co.uk/images/thumbs/30SaeedYounan.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><br />As a top international DJ and producer, <strong>Saeed Younan</strong> has developed into a true artist of the global dance scene.

She have also graced the decks of <strong>Ministry of Sound</strong> Main Arena and <strong>Hacienda</strong> for corporate events.<br /><br />Truth is, she is not Magda and she does NOT make the tea. But she can make you cry with her deep and soulful electro styling, all while maintaining her diversity without compromising on her signature attitude and flawless technique.<br /><br />When not on her toes as an event programmer and a marcom exec, she breathes by the dj consoles, meddling with the sound of house, deep house, tribal house, tech house, minimal, progressive, techno, and almost everything in between.

Since then, her style of breaks gradually developed to sets of high impact tunes, frantic beats, swirling analogues and monster hooks.<br /><br />Since Reiki’s first well-received club appearance in <strong>Phuture </strong>(by Zouk) and her debut promotional mixed CD entitled <strong>Equlibrium 001: Dawn of Breaks</strong>, she has moved on to spin for leading local breakbeat events such as<strong> Sirens</strong>, <strong>Phuture Breaks</strong>, Guerilla, Assault and guest spot in other parts of Asia, headlining <strong>Breaks Centro &amp; Flava Breaks</strong> in Kuala Lumpur, <strong>Salem Innovation Sessions</strong> in Hong Kong and recently <strong>Breakzelecta</strong> in Bangkok.<br /><br />Known for dropping wicked tunes that heat up the dancefloors, she has even supported drum n bass heavyweight DJs Aphrodite, Mickey Finn &amp; John B as well as Asia’s breaks ambassador, Tony Tay (Zouk) and UK breaks heavyweight, General Midi.<br /><br />Scenewise, Reiki has been a pillar in gathering breaks enthusiasts to promote domestic breaks culture as well as writing articles / reviews, but more importantly, documenting the music’s growing movement in regional portal - <a href="http://breakinasia.blogspot.com/">http://</a><strong><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-weight: normal;"><a href="http://breakinasia.blogspot.com/">breakinasia.blogspot.com</a></span></strong><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /><br /></span><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style=""><a href="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/music/StellarMusic27_Reiki_2007.mp3">Download Mix</a></span></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-size:13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size:16px;"><div><a href="pcast://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Subscribe to this podcast with iTunes</span></a></div><div><a href="feed://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">Subscribe via your RSS reader</span></a></div><a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php" onmouseover="return addthis_open(this, '', '[URL]', '[TITLE]')" onmouseout="addthis_close()" onclick="return addthis_sendto()"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;"><img src="http://s9.addthis.com/button1-addthis.gif" width="125" height="16" border="0" alt="" /></span></span></a></span><br /></span></div>1djkeishi@gmail.com (Stellar Music )http://stellarmusicdigital.blogspot.com/2007/05/stellar-music-27-pole-folder-belgium.htmlbedrockbelgiumfrisky radiojohn digweedpole folderzero goldzoukWed, 9 May 2007 22:44:00 -0700tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24347933.post-5209822397240414522<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/images/thumbs/26PoleFolder.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 289px; height: 289px;" src="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/images/thumbs/26PoleFolder.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div>Much like the film of the same name, 2001 was a Space Odyssey for the underground club scene as thanks to John Digweed, <strong>Pole Folder</strong> was introduced to the world with his debut single <strong>'Apollo Vibes'</strong> becoming a genre defining classic in the years that have passed since.<br /></div><br />This was followed over the course of the following year by the AA single 'Enter The Rhythm/Waxxx' and a third single, 'Dust', a track that many hold in high regard even to this day. From there, EP and single projects followed on such labels as Sunkissed Records and Mo-Do Records, whilst Pole Folder spent much of the next two years focusing on an artist album he had been commissioned to do by <strong>John Digweed</strong>, making him the first artist to produce an artist album for the prestigious <strong>Bedrock</strong> label.<br /><br />The album, <strong>'Zero Gold'</strong> featured collaborations with Brooklyn singer and songwriter Shelley Harland, fellow Belgian Sandra Ferretti and <strong>Kirsty Hawkshaw</strong>, and the album's blend of downtempo moods, brilliant melodies and cinematic soundscapes have earned it critical acclaim all across the world.<br /><br />It's testament to this fact that tracks from the album have been licensed for use popular shows such as <strong>'Nip/Tuck'</strong> and <strong>'CSI'.</strong><br /><br />In the live arena, Pole Folder's career as a DJ and live artist continues to grow and has seen him perform everywhere from Europe to America and Asia, with such places as Miami, Moscow, Monaco, Tokyo and Buenos Aires just a few of the places he's been invited to perform, and this continues to increase on a monthly basis, with live tours and DJ gigs planned for the future in various continents of the world.<br /><br />Pole Folder performs in <strong>Zouk Singapore</strong> this weekend - a night not to be missed!<br /><br />Check out <a href="http://www.myspace.com/polefolder">www.myspace.com/polefolder</a> and <a href="http://www.polefolder.com/">www.polefolder.com</a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; "><a href="http://www.stellarmusicdigital.com/music/StellarMusic27_Pole_Folder_The_80Hz_sessions2007.mp3"></a></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; "><a href="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/music/StellarMusic26_Pole_Folder_The_80Hz_sessions2007.mp3">Download Mix</a></span><div><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;font-size:13px;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style=" font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; font-size:16px;"><div><a href="pcast://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Subscribe to this podcast with iTunes</span></a><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><a href="feed://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital"></a></span></div><div><a href="feed://feeds.feedburner.com/StellarMusicDigital"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Subscribe via your RSS reader</span></a></div><a href="http://www.addthis.com/bookmark.php" onmouseover="return addthis_open(this, '', '[URL]', '[TITLE]')" onmouseout="addthis_close()" onclick="return addthis_sendto()"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family:arial;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;"><img src="http://s9.addthis.com/button1-addthis.gif" width="125" height="16" border="0" alt="" /></span></span></a></span><br /></span></div></div>0djkeishi@gmail.com (Stellar Music )http://stellarmusicdigital.blogspot.com/2007/04/luxy-taipei-presents-j-six-dirty.htmlhousej-sixloop productionsluxyspring lovetaipeiwinter loveSat, 28 Apr 2007 22:53:00 -0700tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24347933.post-7505117896127393167<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/images/thumbs/25JSix.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 289px; height: 289px;" src="http://www.stellarmusic.co.uk/images/thumbs/25JSix.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a><div>Did you know Stellar Music Podcast is now available for at the <strong>Apple Store</strong>?
