Noel Sanger: Armada/Baroque/Curvve/Musicnow/etc/Washington D.C.
With a CV that spans over a decade including hundreds of releases on
dozens of the world's greatestdance labels, remixes for artists like
BT, Delerium, Flash Brothers, Lustral and Hyper, and a tour diary that
spans much of the globe, Noel Sanger has earned his stripes as one of
North America's electronic
ambassadors to the world. In Fact, 2006 began for Noel with in
invitation from none other than BT, to fly to Los Angeles and spend a
month in the studio with himself and Tiesto, lending his unique touch
to 5 tracks from Tiesto's upcoming artist album. The year has gone on
to greater strength since that project with such acclamed releases in
2006 as his own "Falling
Through" and "One Drop" on Baroque Records, his remixes of "Beautiful"
by Seroya on Coldharbour/Armada, "Let me Breathe" by Matt Cerf on
Solaris, "Saxtatic" by Jafrosax on Konami, and "Charcoal Love" by
Holmes Ives, to name a few. He is also one half (with Detroit's
Kenneth Thomas) of Air Hustlers, a new collaborative project which
last summer inked a multi-single deal with Armada music. His current
release schedule includes releases on Coldharbour, Baroque, Currve and
more.
As a DJ (and as a live P.A. at the peak of the American rave scene),
Noel has taken his captivating sound everywhere from Japan to South
America and all over the North American continent, and for two years
he was the hand-picked warm-up tourmate for DJ Tiesto. He has been
featured, profiled, or reviewed in every dance publication you can
name, living or dead, with too many "5 stars", M8/M8, 10/10 or "5
dancing men" reviews to list here. He has also been recognized in some
less likely places like Billboard and Keyboard Magazines and dozens of
local publications. He has a grip of huge projects lined up for 2007,
including his 6th
nationally released DJ mix CD, high profile production and remixes,
featured music in indie film projects, relaunching the dormant
Musicnow Records, and more international touring than ever before.
Noel has just begun to deliver on the promise of his career's first
decade: one can only imagine what he will do with his second.

Thee-O: BioHazard Digital/Balance Record Pool/Blue Moon Productions/Los Angeles, CA
He has been heralded as the most popular and hardworking DJ in Los Angeles. And that hardwork is paying off. In 1993 he started Biohazard Productions as collective of like minded DJ's that now consists of a dozen other DJ's of high caliber. In 1995 he threw his first event aptly titled "Tomorrowland". In 1996 he started writing for URB Magazine as a reviewer for Trance music. In 1997 he became part of the Balance Record Pool which is considered the best electronic dance pool in the country. In 1998 he released his first commercially available mix CD, "Skywalking" under the Base 9 label. In 1999 he was voted as one of the top 20 DJ's in .. poll conducted by Raveworld.net. In the year 2000 he has spun at every major dance event that happened in Los Angeles (including Audiotistic, Electric Daisy Carnival, Jujubeats, Monster Massive and Nocturnal Wonderland). In October of 2000 he and his studio-partner Chris Arnold opened up Biohazard Studios, located inside the Til Dawn offices, right in the heart of Hollywood. In 2001 he released his first CD of original ambient and downtempo music under the name Reef Project and also became the Los Angeles representative in a new mixshow called Revolutions, on the satellite radio sevice known as XM Radio. In 2002 he became the first LA talent to join the ranks of Fate Management based in San Francisco. In 2003 he started his own show on XM Radio called Hazardous Radio. In 2005, he built the second version of the Biohazard Studios and created a digital label called Biohazard Digital that sells tracks on Beatport, Audiojelly, Release Records as well as other digital download stores. Currently, he is working in the studio producing tracks not only to be released on his own label but also working on tracks and remixes for other labels including Queep Organic Music, South Records, Reticent Recordings and 130 Recordings just to name a few. Look out for more productions to be dropping from the Biohazard Studios on many labels coming to you soon both digitally and on vinyl.

Soon he will be traveling abroad to even more locations to spread his sound.
A Thee-O live set is something not to be missed. RaveOne.com put it best when it stated that, "Thee-O's greatest strength is that he is never weak. Some DJ's can tear off a great set on one night, then crap out on another. Thee-O oftentimes approaches greatness, but never falls into mediocrity" while The Rave Section at About.com proclaims: "Thee-O continually proves to be the LA techno/trance master."
