***KANIO (Novakane Records)***
After some time in the music industry under various aliases Kanio smashed his way onto the minimal techno scene in late 2007 with a string of chart topping productions. Widely regarded as the largest download site worldwide, Kanio’s productions have regularly featured in the minimal & techno charts on Beatport. In little more than a year he has achieved a massive 5 top tens and a further 7 top 20's, cementing his position on the worldwide minimal and techno scenes, and becoming nominated for best minimal artist at the Beatport music awards 2009. Off the back of this swift rise, September 2008 saw the launch of his Novakane imprint, already swiftly following suit in terms of sales success.
Besides Novakane, Kanio has signed tracks, and had remixes commissioned to labels such as Traum, Yellow Tail, Autist, Stereo Seven Plus, and Italo Business. Kanio’s work has been supported by some major players, from Richie Hawtin to Audiojack to Claude Von Stroke, and has regularly featured on BBC Radio 1’s dance shows. Gigs have come thick and fast for Kanio; he has already secured regular appearances at some of the UK’s hottest parties including Jaded at The End, Ketoloco, Redlight and Wet Yourself. Furthermore he is set to embark on his fourth tour of Brazil and has played in more different European cities than you can shake a fucking big stick at. Watch out for this talented DJ/Producer, He is sure to rock any dancefloor with his energetic mix of groovy minimal tech.

***TOM HUDDART (Get Diverted/ Jaded)***
A regular on the clubbing scene for many years, Tom Huddart has spun the decks at all the Capital’s premier venues and lurked in dark corners at many an underground haunt too. Playing at The Cross, Turnmills, Minstry of Sound and Egg, as well as underground venues like 54, Fluid and AKA, he will most certainly have rocked a dancefloor near you.
Always able to adapt his style to suit the occasion, Tom will instantly make you feel home. Playing his distinctive blend of deep house, tech house and techno that is as adaptable to peak time slots as it is to lazy Sunday afternoon grooves, it’s no surprise Tom Huddart is in demand. If you have caught him at Sunday morning institution Jaded, South London’s hottest Saturday night Get Diverted, or perhaps at one of the other many parties he has appeared at lately, then you’ll have noticed Tom’s distinctive style always gets feet moving.
