Autograf: Combining two art students and a derivatives trader into an all-encompassing art project was surely a novel concept. Autograf — formed by Jake Carpenter, Louis Kha, and Mikul Wing — craft a shimmery mix of futuristic electronica with a D.I.Y. ethos that melds the skills from their former day jobs. Autograf have sustained a global fanbase with yearly headlining tours, bringing their dense and renowned discography of effervescent house music to the prestigious stages of Coachella, Lollapalooza, EDC Las Vegas and EDC Korea. The guys pride themselves in their all-encompassing approach to the project, which incorporates DIY art pieces for every live tour.
Genix: One of the longest-serving linchpins of the trance scene, Genix has deep roots in the genre that have helped his production career to grow exponentially since his debut release in 2003. Since then he has become a mainstay of Anjunabeats, with other releases on Armind, Vandit Records, Enhanced Records and Reset Records to name a few. DJing alongside the world’s elite along the way, he has become a huge name in his own right. Pushing an exciting new sound that makes a departure from many of his previous works, he is one of the most exciting acts in Anjunabeats’ impressive stable. With no compromise in his style across his 100+ released singles and remixes and no desire to water down his sound in order to reach more commercial audiences, he is an artist who is truly dedicated to his scene. His new formidable sound blends the most exciting elements of trance, techno, house and progressive into a potent, high octane cocktail. With a penchant for in-your-face textures and sounds set against stunning melody and beautiful atmospherics, his sound is at the vanguard of the trance movement. Blending reverence for the formative sounds of 1990s dance music upbringing with the sounds of now, his tracks are consistently among the most exciting in the scene.

Across his dozens of hit releases, the GRAMMY-nominated producer, DJ, and thought-leader has racked up hundreds of millions of plays, and charted multiple Billboard, Beatport, and US Dance Radio #1s.

In recent years, Page has been a regular collaborator on music-focused projects with Tesla and SpaceX as well as provided them with originally produced music. His newly launched podcast ‘Airwave’ is an exploration of how people make their art and how technology plays an essential role in that process. Focusing on where music and technology converge to tell the stories behind the artists and architects of creativity and technology – the podcast is largely conversational but doesn’t shy away from going deep and technical.
