OOKAY
One of the most impressive young leaders of the American dance music scene, California-based Ookay (pronounced “okay”) exploded onto the scene when both his freshman and sophomore releases on Ultra Records charted in the top 10 on Beatport. Since then, he’s shown no sign of slowing down, working with some of the greatest producers in electronic music while developing a signature style that weaves across genres, reflecting influences as varied as Borgore, Diplo, DJ Snake, Showtek, Deorro, TJR, Boaz Van de Beatz, Valentino Kahn, Waveracer, Cashmere Cat, Lindsay Lowend, Skrillex, Lido, and Wiwek while always returning to a hard-hitting trap beat.
The producer and DJ has racked up credits and quickly made a name for himself with remixes of tracks like Congrorock’s “Bless Di Nation Ft. Sean Paul” and Steve Aoki, Chris Lake & Tujamo’s “Boneless.” Ookay teamed up with iconic producer Diplo to remix Avicii’s “You Make Me,” and his recent remix of “Kanye” by the Chainsmokers on Republic/Dim Mak Records layers his signature mix of dance music and hip-hop over fluttering pop vocals. His side project Coaster serves as an outlet for his love of alternative dance and house music, proving Ookay to be no one-trick trap pony.
His much-anticipated spring single "Bouncer," produced with the venerable Dutch duo Showtek, hit the top 3 Beatport overall chart after its March 2014 release and was a staple on summer festival stages across the country. Ookay has also quickly become known as a charismatic performer both on and off stage, appearing at venues like EDC Las Vegas, Electric Zoo, Red Rocks, and TomorrowWorld. His live shows are known for sleek transitions, sensitive song selections, and entertaining MC’ing from the booth. He’s also no slouch on Twitter, commenting on everything from the struggle to Shazam an unknown song to LA’s Korean BBQ scene.
It’s no surprise that Ghost, out November 10 on Dim Mak Records, is one of the most exciting dance music releases of the fall. Promised to be “a blend of listening tracks as well as club bangers,” it fulfills that goal. Ghost is one of the too-rare records that will bring you from your morning commute, with the meditative “Ghost” and “Matters,” to 4 AM on the dance floor losing it to “Egg Drop Soup.”
The Ghost Tour this fall and winter is sure to blow up dance floors across America, and truly solidify Ookay’s status as one of America’s premier young electronic artists. With support from such icons as Showtek and Diplo as well as Tiesto, Steve Aoki, Major Lazer, Borgore, Nervo, David Guetta, DJ Snake, Deorro, TJR, Krewella and more, it seems certain that Ookay’s star will only continue to rise.

APASHE
Apashe is a 21 year old electronic music producer from Brussels who's now established as a professional sound designer in Montreal. He started making breakcore in 2008 before moving onto dubstep, neurofunk, electro and trap. He was the first artist signed to Kannibalen Records in 2011, and in a few years he's become one of the most exciting and creative acts in the bass music world. He's known for his rich, detailed sound and his unique live shows in which he recreates his tracks alongside a full arsenal of unreleased edits.
In January 2012, his 'Contamination' EP established Apashe as a serious up & comer in the bass world. Since then, EPs, free downloads and collaborations have garnered support and playtime from an eclectic list of DJs such as Major Lazer, Afrojack, Excision, Flosstradamus & Koan Sound. His trap influenced collaboration 'Bubble Gun' with Snails earned him major play time on the BBC airwaves and became the ultimate secret weapon for trap DJs worldwide in late 2012.
2013 was a banner year for the young Belgian. His free release 'Battle Royale' was a production tour de force that showcased his signature sound design and his skillful use of epic orchestral samples. He followed this up with a monster trap EP called "Black Mythology", featuring "Black Gold" and "Forsaken" which both rose to the top of the Beatport Hip Hop and Dubstep charts.
Apashe has shown no signs of slowing down in 2014. He kicked the year off with "No Twerk", another huge trap hit with vocals by Odalisk and Panther, then released his first remix EP which included a massive VIP version of "Battle Royale". Apashe also made inroads into the European market, playing to packed audiences in Paris and Brussels. Having recently linked up with Circle Talent, he's now set to spread his bass heavy sound to the rest of the world.
YOGI
“YOGI has now proven themselves as a very promising act with expertise both in the studio and behind the decks. Expect big things for the future…”
-GOTTA DANCE DIRTY
“Collaborative act Yogi, the latest addition to Skrillex’s label, has just released a massive instrumental record that will be one of your go-to tracks to pump you up and get your body moving.”
-EARMILK
“Both tracks we’ve heard show the versatility the YOGI really packs, which makes sense since each producer within the group has created solo projects for quite sometime”
-THIS SONG IS SICK
“Futurism for forward thinkers.”
-DO ANDROIDS DANCE
“Prepare to hear more from YOGI, as his forward thinking and hard hitting productions will soon be blasted over speakers everywhere.”
