"Teaching yourself is the best way. When you have someone teachingor tutoring you, you tend to emulate. You don’t develop your own style." -MP Maceo Plexlives by his words and his unique sound and performance is a testament to what is distinctlyhis own...With a career that MixMag describes as “the stuff of legend,” Maceo Plex’s pathtothe top of the underground dance music scenehasbeen nothing short of a musicians mythical journey. From his expansive catalog of Techno heaters to IDM thinkershis music has span across genres and redefined the dance music artist. He once held the number #1 spot in three different genres onthe Beatportchartsall at the same time,putting him in distinctive a league of his own. A true devotee to the art of electronic music, hiscareer is defined by a restless creativity, as he has reinvents dance music in hisown image or in three... His appetite for creation and performance is not satisfied by one pseudonym,but by two more aliases Mariel Ito, and MaetrikLive,each having there own unique production & performance style. Maceo regularly makes high profile appearances on the worlds biggest stages in places like Amsterdam, Berlin, Ibiza, New York and anywhere else the planet’s dancemusic elite gather. Born in Miami to first generation Cuban Immigrants, he grew up in one of America’s most vibrant cities, where everyone has a little bit of rhythm in their DNA. As a young man he naturally took to music, becoming obsessed with IDM, Techno, and Breaks as he worked his way into Miami’s legendary partyscene. His older brother a professional dancer would expose a young Plex, to the break-beat and electro scene in Miami. This futuristic music & hip style combined with his latin roots would plant the seeds for his ever-evolving sound. Moving to Dallas, in the early 90’s he continued to develop his love for electronic music. Consumed with his new passion he would buy his first piece of production gear a MPC drummachine by saving his earning as a dishwasher at a local restaurant. Maceo, known as Eric Entity, at the time would start building his global audience during the late 90’s rave boom. Dallas would serve as the stomping grounds to his professional carrier in dance music where he performed under his live performance alias Maetrik. It would not be until 2010 that the Maceo Plex identity would be realized after he and his wife moved to Valencia, Spain leaving all they have known behind them in search of something more. Maceo Plex stands head and shoulders above the crowded field of DJs & producers thanks to his genuine love of music and his uncanny ability to create something new & unique. He has already entered rarified air and is showing no signs of slowing down, as he continues to push his music in new directions and take his performance to new heights. Though many chapters have been written the story is far from over.

Ephy Pinkman is exactly the sort of wild ringleader you want in charge of your party. He has too much energy, too much love, and too many stories to tell to keep it cool. So he doesn't. He overflows onto the dance floor and infuses everyone on it with his loveable charms. This once-quiet kid harnesses his ADHD superpowers and channels them into everything he does. From banging out hard and fast DJ sets to crafting dramatic drums and captivating melodies in the studio or sending up the scene with his memes and videos on Instagram, he does it at x100. It's almost a decade since German-born Pinkman got his first taste of techno at Zug Der Liebe in Berlin. Just a year after discovering that Charleston and swing dancing was a perfect outlet for his energy, he was hooked on the rhythmic electronic bass and set about making his own sounds. Each time he gets in the studio he pours out the insanity in his head and the raging fires in his heart using a mix of hard techno, rave, trance, bass and whatever else. He tells stories with his music that his words cannot, and there is one story in particular that will always define him. In 2016, the endless rush he gets from life was instantly thwarted when he had to undergo scoliosis surgery to fix the curvature of his spine. What followed was five days of agonising pain, 42 titanium implants, eight months of recovery and plenty of loss... loss of energy, loss of control, loss of simple everyday movements. Over time he rebuilt, taught himself how to move, how to walk, how to dress, and then how to express these experiences with music. This restless raver is now back to his exuberant, buoyant and unstoppable best. He is bouncing around plenty of the scene's most respected DJ booths, dropping inescapably zest bangers and throwing shapes like never before. He is the vibrant and vivacious artist you need to shock you out of your comfort zone; the man who reminds you to grab life with both hands and live every moment as if it were your last. He is Ephy Pinkman, and there is no one else like him.
