Nervo
Having written and produced hits for the likes of Kylie Minogue, Ke$ha, The Pussycat Dolls, Afrojack, Steve Aoki and Miley Cyrus (Hannah Montana) to name a few, and receiving a Grammy Award for writing ‘When Love Takes Over’ for David Guetta and Kelly Rowland, the sisters of NERVO from Australia have risen to stardom with their songwriting skills alone. Add to this a DJ schedule spanning over 200 live shows world-wide per year with main stage slots at some of the world's biggest festivals (Tomorrowland, EDC, Creamfields), Las Vegas residencies at super clubs Omnia in Las Vegas and Ushuaia in Ibiza, a number 16 spot in the DJ Mag top 100 DJ’s, a string of club hits of their own including the latest release on Big Beat titled People Grinnin' and a chart-topping debut album ‘Collateral’ in 2015 to high critical acclaim and reaching #1 on iTunes, it’s fair to say NERVO are credited with being one of the biggest dance acts in the business.

David GuettaWhile there are many talented artists who achieve stardom and global popularity, few have such enduring and palpable influence as to reshape the dynamic of the entire music industry. Perhaps the greatest element of David Guetta’s illustrious story is not simply his countless personal successes, but his wider game-changing approach. From making dance music and DJ culture more of a viable and legitimised commercial success than ever before to finally uniting the worlds of electronic and urban music, the repercussions of his visionary attitude cannot be underestimated.
David has established himself as arguably the world’s biggest and most successful DJ of all time by fusing dance music with urban artists. By teaming up with some of the biggest names in hip hop and R&B, and reinventing their sound for the electronic dancefloors, Guetta created pop alchemy. The ensuing hits such as ‘I Gotta Feeling’ with Black Eyed Peas, ‘When Love Takes Over’ with Kelly Rowland and ‘Sexy Bitch’ with Akon propelled him to superstardom. They also set a new template for the sound of commercial radio. This was instrumental in turning electronic music into the biggest youth movement since hip hop.
Of course, his own groundbreaking accomplishments cannot be overlooked either. 50 million album and single sales; over 10 billion YouTube and Spotify plays; numerous #1 singles and Platinum and Gold certifications across the globe; two Grammys for Best Remixed Recording and four further nominations; one of the most successful club nights Ibiza has ever seen; one of the biggest social media followings of any DJ/producer; the first DJ to be on the cover of Billboard, the list goes on and on and on…
With all his success as a chart-topping producer, it’s all too easy to forget about his hallowed heritage as a highly respected DJ. Promoting raves in his native Paris with nothing more than photocopied flyers, he rose through the influential ‘French touch’ era that saw the likes of Daft Punk come to fame, but was soon forging his own path through the dance music scene. Whether he’s playing at one of his residencies at XS and Encore in Las Vegas or Ushuaïa Ibiza or playing mega festivals like Tomorrowland (where he has performed since its first year) and Ultra Music Festival, he never forgets those humble roots. His ‘classical’ training in the art of mixing combined with his enduring appeal and continual relevancy ensured him the #6 spot on the DJ Mag Top 100 and a Billboard award for Top Dance/Electronic artist most recently.
Citing his role in the studio in the vein of a classic producer, Guetta sits as the musical brain at the center of the project, bringing it all together. His incredible list of collaborators over the years has included Madonna, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Snoop Dogg, Usher, Sia, John Legend, Nicki Minaj, Kelly Rowland, Showtek, Avicii, Ne-Yo, Akon, Afrojack and Nicky Romero for starters, but he has also been a keen supporter of lesser-known talent. The likes of Sam Martin and Chris Willis have both enjoyed continual support from Guetta, showing that he’s not just about the A-listers but also about championing hot new names. “Of course it’s amazing to work with famous people,” he explains, “but the reason behind their fame is their talent. But I also love finding talented people who are not famous, it’s equally amazing to put the spotlight on them.”
Always in high demand outside of the clubs, festivals and studios, Guetta’s extra-curricular activities have ranged from providing the original soundtrack and musical direction for the UEFA Euro 2016 football championship to being a key partner for UNICEF and an early supporter of groundbreaking legal mix uploading platform Dubset. Never hesitating to help charities, David joined forces with the United Nations in support of ‘’The World Needs More’’ campaign to raise funds for humanitarian emergencies.
One of his latest releases Would I Lie To You is seeing him return to the club dancefloors, it’s clear that he’ll never be defined by just one side of his career. His passion for music remains undying, and while the world continues to watch his every move with anticipation, he’ll ignore the pressure and continue his ongoing search for that perfect beat.
His latest release Shed A Light is a dance pop ballad that is bound to leave a lasting impression across the globe. The track shot to the charts and has reached a Golden status in Italy, The Netherlands and Sweden up until now. More than anything the deeply moving song sends a message of hope, urging us to heed the call of our hearts. The track has the emotional fire that Guetta aims for in all his productions.

Lost FrequenciesLost Frequencies, the Belgian DJ and producer, also known as Félix De Laet, has soared to success in the international music industry over the past decade. A decade on from his global smash ‘Are You With Me’, which saw him flip an Easton Corbin, Country-style classic into a pop-meets-dance dose of originality, firmly cementing his name on the global stage. The super producer boasts over 32 million monthly Spotify listeners and also achieved the remarkable feat of surpassing one billion streams on Spotify, marking the second time in his career alongside ‘Where Are You Now’ – a remarkable double achievement that marks him as the first Belgian musician to do so and landing him the debut cover of Forbes Magazine Belux.
As well as consistently climbing charts across Europe and the Billboard Top 100 in the United States, ‘Are You With Me’ would secure the #1 spot in 18 countries and see Lost Frequencies become the first Belgian artist to hit #1 in the United Kingdom. Where Lost Frequencies earned his first Brit Award nomination for his ‘Best International Song’ for the global hit with Calum Scott ‘Where Are You Now’, as well as scoring #1 on the Top UK 40 and Ireland Top 50 singles charts after becoming the most-played song in the UK, the single would also achieve Platinum status across 14 territories worldwide.
‘Where Are You Now’ also secured a Top 30 US chart position and, to date, has received billions of streams. An unmistakably classic in Lost Frequencies catalogue is his global hit ‘Are You With Me’, which earned him Echo Awards for ‘Dance International’ and ‘Hit Of The Year’, beating the likes of Adele. He has also received numerous MTV EMA and IDMA (International Dance Music Awards) awards, including ‘Best Belgian Act’, also having been awarded an MIA Award for ‘Best Dance’, for the fifth time in his career recently, as he also places regularly in the upper echelons of the DJ Mag Top 100 DJs Poll currently standing at #20.
Throughout his illustrious career, Lost Frequencies has collaborated with artists such as Justin Bieber, Ellie Goulding, Bastille and more recently he collaborated with British artist Tom Odell for his take on ‘Black Friday (pretty like the sun)’, recreating the original with his signature sound that has almost 250 million streams to date, as well as fusing jump- up breaks and racing rhythms on his Bomfunk MC’s collaboration of the classic ‘Freestyler (Rock The Microphone)’.
The ‘Alive & Feeling Fine’ album preceded the announcement of his first full-live tour, Lost Frequencies Live, which saw Lost Frequencies joined by a band of live musicians and vocalists, bringing his whole body of music to life in a live environment. Continuing to the tail-end of 2022, Lost Frequencies Live toured extensively to sold-out dates throughout North America and Europe with 20 shows over three months, accumulating in a dazzling show at Brussels Forest National Stadium. Lost Frequencies’ third artist album, ‘All Stand Together’, hosted collaborators old and new across 11 sensational tracks. From the international hit #1 ‘Where Are You Now’ with Calum Scott to recent solo release ‘The Feeling’ and a title track that set the scene alight, Lost Frequencies put a pin into the musical map of where the multi-platinum maestro currently stands in his career, from uplifting house and tropical sounds to influences of folk, acoustic instrumentals, and dancefloor- ready anthems.
As a touring DJ, Lost Frequencies continues to rack up countless air miles. Pre-pandemic, he was the most-booked festival artist of any genre, making 49 appearances over the summer season that year, numerically beating names including The 1975, Lizzo and FOALS. Fast-forward to today, Lost Frequencies continues to dominate festival mainstages and tents worldwide, appearing at every major event, from Coachella to Lollapalooza and EDC Orlando to Creamfields, plus an honourable set at Rock in Rio to close out the mainstage after Justin Bieber and for BBC Radio 1 in Malta this summer to a rapturous reception. His residencies also glitter amongst the scene, holding down the fort at TAO GROUP at OMNIA and MARQUEE. With a plethora of new music, plus a run of international DJ shows, the future ahead looks set to continue illuminating Lost Frequencies’ presence worldwide.

His fans rewarded him with many votes for the DJ Mag Top-100, entering the list in October 201, rising to position 49 in 2012 and holding strong at #61 in 2013.
'Lose my Mind' was his eminent release in 2012 and the first offering from his own label 'Brennan Heart Music'. This collaboration with Wildstylez shows the catch-factor of his tracks; all party-people can sing the chorus by heart. This new status also created more interest for his previous releases like 'Wake Up' and 'Running Late', as well for his epic albums 'Musical Impressions' (2009) and M!D!FILEZ (2010).

In 2013, Brennan rebranded his label to 'WE R Music', supporting artists like Code Black, Toneshifterz and Outbreak. 'F.I.F.O.' was a great release, followed by his collaboration 'Imaginary' with US-vocalist Jonathan Mendelsohn (Voted #1 Hardstyle track of 2013). ‘Imaginary’ is the soundtrack for his documentary, 'Evolution of Style - a journey with Brennan Heart', an epic document about the life and passion of this innovative DJ and producer.
Brennan Heart continues to make history, selling out the legendary Heineken Music Hall in Amsterdam in January 2014 in the first event of its kind, gaining rave reviews from both fans and peers. The Evolution of this artist is certainly one to watch.
