MESSINIAN :
Respected by fans far and wide in the Electronic Music/Dance community, Messinian‘s commanding voice and stage presence have brought countless club and festival goers to expect the unexpected. A natural at fusing genres and uniting the masses, Messinian brings a raw emotion and intensity that consistently burns the roof down. His life is all about controlling microphones and turntables in front of wild crowds and taking the energy in the venue to a higher level. Currently residing in North Philadelphia, he was born into a humble upbringing in Los Angeles, California. He never imagined that his passion and drive for music would one day have him performing in front of jam packed audiences around the globe. Armed with a dream and an uncanny ability to sneak into clubs as a teenager, he was performing at major venues up and down the East Coast before he was legally old enough to get into them. With the endless support of his friends and fan base in Philadelphia and a relentless work ethic, his musical path was paved.
With years of constant touring under his belt, Messinian has grown to become an underground veteran, rocking nation-wide tours sponsored by Sony, DC Shoes, URB Magazine, House of Blues, Salem Cigarettes, Rinse Magazine and more. His busy tour schedule has helped him to see the world many times over. Messinian has brought his art form to Japan, South Africa, England, Austria, New Zealand, Serbia, South Korea, Holland, China, Macedonia, Portugal, Czech Republic, Australia, Costa Rica, Canada, Poland, Singapore, Hungary, Switzerland, Venezuela, Lithuania, Belgium, Taiwan, Estonia, and all over the United States in every major city. Aside from touring year-round with various DJs and being the vocalist for his own Pop/Electro/Rap projects, Messinian is the front man for the annual "PLANET OF THE DRUMS TOUR" (AK1200, Dieselboy, Dara, and Messinian). This tour has been packing raves and selling out venues for over 10 years. It is considered the most successful tour in Drum and Bass and it is the longest running electronic music tour ever. He’s performed at the Virgin Music Festival, Area 2 Tour (Moby, Busta Rhymes, David Bowie), Salem Tour (w/ The Roots, Outkast), Playstation 2 Tour, The Coachella Festival, The Electric Daisy Carnival, Ultra Music Festival, The Love Parade, The Bassrush festivals, Creamfields and numerous huge festivals in Europe and abroad.
Messinian has been setting dancefloors on fire and touring non-stop as a Dubstep DJ/MC. You can see him nationwide at festivals and clubs spinning high energy Dubstep originals & VIP’s… simultaneously mixing records and hyping it up on the mic to get crowds screaming with their hands in the air. Messinian took the Dubstep world by storm with a streak of hard hitting vocal collaborations with Dubstep heavyweights like Excision, Datsik, Bare, SPL, Number Ni6e, Triage, J. Rabbit, Camo & Krooked, Antiserum, Downlink, Skism, Sluggo, Mark Instinct, Itchy Robot and many more. Messinian’s tracks are getting heavy DJ support from not only North American Dubstep DJ’s, but major Dubstep DJ’s the world over. Messinian is no stranger to the Top 20 Dubstep Charts on Beatport. His collaborations “All About My Paper”, “Heavy Artillery”, “Apeshit”, “Girls, Girls”, and “Burn It Up” have all held spots in the Top 20 or Top 10 in the last several months and he has plenty of Dubstep/Drumstep/DNB anthems with releases scheduled soon. He has been pumping out quality bangers and getting them released on Beatport chart dominating labels such as Rottun Recordings, EX7 Records, Play Me Records, Subhuman, and Hollow Point Recordings. Make sure to look out for Messinian’s solo production and beat making collaborations with artists like Bare, The Upbeats, SPL, and Zardonic in the near future.
A versatile artist, he’s been in the studio creating tracks with world class producers for Dubstep, Hip Hop, Pop, Rock, D&B, Electro, Soul, and House projects. Releases include “Mariachi Loco” on Warner UK, “Throw It Away Remix” with electro producers Designer Drugs, the house anthem “Baked From Scratch” with Hatiras and DJ Dan, the Drum and Bass smash hit “Barrier Break” with Dieselboy for Human Imprint, and the Dubstep, politically charged foreward for Evol Intent’s breakthrough album “Era of Diversion”. He’s had his music in platinum selling video games such as Grand Taurismo 4 and also used for Skateboarding/Snowboarding shows on cable networks like Fuel TV. He’s performed live on the biggest radio stations from Johannesburg, South Africa to Eastern Europe to Tokyo, Japan. Messinian is represented by the William Morris Agency, one of the largest and most respected agencies in the world.
Aside from his love for his art, Messinian is extremely proud to have taught Hip Hop Music/Creative Writing classes at 'Northeast Treatment Center' Juvenile Detention facility in North Philadelphia. In Messinian’s own words, “These kids are the future of music. They have been through so
much and turned their struggle and pain into creative wordplay and expression. The world isn’t ready for the skills they’re bringing! I’m happy that the center finally brought a program these kids could really relate to. They are changing their life in a positive direction and it’s cool that the music they love is helping in a strong way. I definitely want to be a part of a program like this again in the future…for now my main goal in life is to change Pop and underground music as we know it. My music, my family, and my fans are my lifeline...There’s nothing on this Earth more important. I’m a big fan of music that makes you shake your ass. I’m also a big fan of music that’s provocative and makes you think. I love Hip Hop, Rock and Roll, Pop, Soul, Electronic music, and everything in between. If we're on the same page, then LET'S RIDE!”
PHRENIK :
While San Diego's veteran DJ/Producer Phrenik made his mark on the Southern California electronic music scene primarily through drum and bass, unbeknownst to many, his influence and impact reaches much further.His well-received and heavily downloaded “System Check Mix Series” has delved into genres as far and wide as electro and trance. While his latest mix, the third installment on the ever popular Simplify Mix Series, Phrenik journeys through the many realms of dubstep while sticking to his dnb roots as well. Varied and versatile, with both high-energy performances and critically acclaimed productions acting as his calling cards, Phrenik’s position as a major player in the world of EDM has been surely secured.
Long a staple on the SoCal scene, Phrenik's popularity grew nationally and internationally through his long-running show on DrumnBassTV.com, "The Resistance", which he hosted for 5 years. In 2009, Phrenik's reputation as a respected producer was solidified with his well-received dubstep remix of Rihanna's Disturbia. His follow up single Take Me Away, released as a free download by Sub Pressure Recordings, has received downloads numbered in the thousands, hitting home with fans of the melodic dubstep subgenre.
As of late, his studio credibility has grown further when he teamed up with renowned vocalist Jillian Ann to create their breakthrough dubstep hit ‘Set It Off’ which broke the Beatport top 100 within its first week of release on Simplify Recordings, not to mention also climbing to #3 in all-time label downloads for the site. This melodic banger combines gritty synth fanfare and a driving bass line along Jillian’s haunting vocals, giving the tune an aggressively urgent, yet upbeat, feel. Surely one of this year’s most notable releases.
2011 marks a busy time for Phrenik including a number of remixes, collaborations and releases scheduled for various labels including Simplify, Rogue Dubs, Bombeatz Music and Sub Pressure Recordings to name a few. With such varied and quality productions on such a wide variety of fronts, and such a buzz around his upcoming releases, it’s no doubt Phrenik truly has arrived in the world of dubstep and drum and bass.
