LEN FAKI:
Berlin based DJ, producer and label owner Len Faki is one of the most outstanding and in-demand artists in techno's present age. He is an internationally requested dj, whose productions and remixes are played by techno’s most prominent names. Being a resident at Berlin’s prime techno club Berghain since its opening in 2004 keeps him open-minded as both, dj and producer. His sound is constantly evolving without ever losing its vibrant, unique energy and the passion and heart he puts into his sets. His gigs are an audio-visual adventure where he is not only playing for the crowd but rather performing for and with them.
Even before his move to Berlin in 2003, Len Faki had the experience of managing two highly acclaimed techno labels, Monoid and Feis. These early years of fruitful productivity provided the necessary groundwork for the next big steps in his career. Upon his arrival in Berlin, it didn´t take long until he became a resident-DJ in the newly opened Berghain - a match made in techno heaven and a monthly experience he wouldn´t want to miss for anything. The characteristic extra long DJ-sets in his "living room" inspire him to vary in tone and fully roll out his style to explore and further deepen his mastery of turning a DJ-set into a bona fide musical journey.
In 2003 he founded his own label figure as a new platform to play out his eclectic and open-minded vision of techno music. At first an outlet for his own productions, figure developed into a well recognized, highly acclaimed label, releasing household names like Johannes Heil or Slam as well as upcoming producers like Markus Suckut, A.Mochi, Psyk and others. To support and believe in the success of upcoming artists was and always will be a matter close to Len’s heart and so the label is constantly scouting for fresh talent to develop and produce. Closing in on it's 50th release, figure is setting a new standard for techno music that is equal parts versatile, exciting and cutting-edge.
Since then Len has found more and more pleasure in editing tracks for his DJ- sets to create his own musical universe and further develop his unique sound on stage. Len Faki’s bone-dry but communicative execution style sets him apart as a true gentleman behind the turntables, an artist whose sets are based on raw passion and beauty, who uses his fingertips like sensors on a Richter scale, gauging, anticipating as well as triggering eruptions on the dance floor...
THE ONLY:
Australian production/DJ duo THE ONLY is Shawn Naderi & Jeff Drake. Obsessed with making dance-floor rocking tracks, THE ONLY jumped into the world of EDM after their chance meeting in the infamous Sydney nightspot Chinese Laundry. In a few short years the duo has had their productions supported by artists as diverse as Tiesto, Steve Aoki, Bingo Players, TJR, Chuckie and The Bloody Beetroots and many more.
Their debut single ‘The Only F*cking Rave Party’ became a cult hit in Australia and was supported by Steve Aoki who included it on his ‘Sessions’ mix CD and recruited The Only to remix GTronic for his infamous Dim Mak record label.
Amidst a string of remixes their next key release was ‘Drag Me Down’. This indie dance crossover saw THE ONLY gain the attention of major radio station Triple J who added the song to high rotation. Their follow up single ‘Looking Back’ was equally well received and saw THE ONLY earn their first ever Official Australian club chart #1.
As one of the most exciting emerging electronic acts in Australia THE ONLY earned places on leading festivals such as Big Day Out, Splendour In The Grass, Field Day, Groovin The Moo & Foreshore Festival as well as regularly headline leading venues across the country.
In the late half of 2013 THE ONLY made one of their strongest works to date which marked their first significant step towards an international breakthrough with a remix for Australian hero Flume's dance project What So Not which was released on Skrillex's OWSLA label.
And now starting 2014 with a bang THE ONLY has received support from TJR for their upcoming remix of Joel Fletcher's hit 'Swing' and have also announced their next two singles in a collaboration with ‘Flute’ duo New World Sound titled ‘Home Again’ and a remake of 90’s anthem ‘The Launch’.
