When you look
at the list of achievements of BeXta Australia's No1 female DJ
and possibly the most successful dance music producer in the
countries history, you wonder how she has done it all. And when
you ask BeXta that question, this quietly spoken talent admits
she feels she hasn't even started. Which makes it all the more
cool.
BeXta
has had 8 single releases to date, including a 5-star international
anthem (quoted by Radio One, BBC London, and DJ Mag UK), called
'One For The Road. She's release one EP - the Skirmish LIVE EP,
which entered the ARIA singles charts in 1999, and an album,
Conversations with ones and zeroes. The album reached number
8 on the ARIA independent album charts, which was released on
her own label in Australia - a notable achievement for a dance
music producer in this country achieving all of that?
On
top of her own releases BeXta began the DJ compilation series,
'Mixology', in 2000, and we are just about to be hit with number
9 in the series, which she is introducing her first international
DJ to accompany her on the comps - Brooklyn Bounce. This
collaboration will surely propel and Bexta's production career
to a much wider international stage - a long running objective
of this personable and determined DJ.
As
well as the release of 'Mixology 9' , BeXta has embarked on a
project to introduce new talent into the industry, with the development
of her label, now called Mixology Digital Records. This will
feature new artists, as well as her own material, that will also
be remixed by internationals and also herself. The label will
feature collaborations BeXta has done with international artists,
including Public Domain, Dave Joy and Vandertraxx. MDR will be
entering the online download domain www.mixologydigitalrecords.com/
But vinyl junkies rest assured there will a be a vinyl release
to launch the label, which will be available internationally,
and will feature a new BeXta track, and will introduce 2 of her
new artists - Steve Black and TyDi.

London born singer/songwriter and DJ Maxine Hardcastle
is not restrained by genre, having written soulful/ funky house
tracks for Hed Kandi and The Ministry of Sound as well as a number
of smooth jazz releases, reaching #1 on the US Billboard chart.
It would be difficult not to claim that
music runs thought her veins - her father, the legendary 80s
popster Paul Hardcastle, made his mark revolutionising the sound
of pop with the record '19', with subsequently Simon Fuller named
the company '19 Management'. Mr. Hardcastle continues to dominate
the American charts with countless hit albums. If that wasn't
enough to claim artistic heritage, Maxine's brother Paul Jr.
is a saxophonist and songwriter who is currently jamming to the
loyal dance music crowds of Ibiza. Louis Hardcastle, her grandfather,
was a credible jazz / soul musician performing his way around
the world until the fine age of 80.
So
it's no surprise that Maxine has
spent her youth immersed in all things musical, finding time
also to . train in classical, ballroom and Latin dancing and
gaining a diploma in theater arts at the famed 'Italia Conti
Academy'. She sang in the Spice Girls Movie, danced on
S-Club television, appearing in the series I-Dream, and sang
live at the Royal Albert Hall as well as co-writing and performing
on 'Hardcastle 4' - and all that before the age of 18!
Maxine
has concentrated on writing and producing her own solo material,
teaching herself digital music production and setting up her
own studio, and teaching herself a professional music program.
From an early age she was determined to become musically
self-sufficient and be able to be involved involved in each step
of making music.
Maxine wrote her first house track 'It's
Gonna Happen' in 2007, which was snapped up by global label/club
brand Hed Kandi, released on the 'Summer Sampler' and 'Beach
House 2007', following up with 'Another Chance' to Wez Clarke's
instrumental on which she also played keyboards. The track smashed
dancefloors everywhere and Hed Kandi obliged again for her second
signing, releasing the track on several albums including 'A Winters
Taste', 'Kandi Lounge', 'Beach House 2008', 'Live Verbier' and
'American' Ministry of Sound Album. Established producer Richard
Earnshaw provided a remix on further albums. Two further tracks
were signed with Hed Kandi proving very successful - 'Walking
With A Smile', originally written by Maxine is a soul/funk number,
was remixed by Wez Clarke into the catchy house track that now
features on several albums. 'Bringing Me Back', was released
on the 'Beach House 2009' album and several albums Stateside.
The 'Mr. Vasovski Mix' was released on Discopolis records and
featured on 'Born To Dance Presents Essential House Miami Twenty
Ten'. Maxine performs her tracks live in venues all over
the world, including Pacha London, Pacha Lithuania, Russia and
The Maldives.
As Miss Hardcastle breezed through the
audition for dance/pop sensation 'Alice DJ' her work with other
producers at Violent Music sparked a fascination with Ableton
Live throwing her headlong into the world of digital DJing. Composing
her own remixes/bootlegs she showcased her favourite house and
electro tracks to audiences weaving her live vocal talents into
her set. Maxine may be relatively new blood on the DJ scene but
she has already sparked a lot of industry interest - not many
DJs we know leave the decks looping and get down onto the floor
to sing in the crowd.
Recent highlights include touring for
'Pink Poison' in Lithuania, as well as appearances at Egg London,
Kuredu Island Maldives, Dreamers Marbella, Dance Crusade festival,
Mac Store Regent Street, The National Polo Championships 'Sandbanks
Rocks' alongside Dane Bowers and Brandon Block, and has played
beside Kiss 100 DJs and Ibiza Residents and has billed at highly
respected club nights Dance Aid, Blow, Miss Moneypennies, Wired,
Be Sombody, Femme Fatale, DiscoTech, MotherFunkers, Pukka Up,
Undetected, Dirtbox, Tutti-Frutti, and the Thursday Night Project
Away
from the decks and dance scene Maxine
finds relaxation from the hard beats and hectic life of a DJ
by writing accoustic, easy listening music. She has co-written
and performed on several of her fathers #1 smooth jazz albums
and recently co-wrote and sang the track 'A Different Kind Of
Love' with American artist Nate Harasim, voted 'Up and Coming
Smooth Jazz artist of the Year. The track features on his album
which is due to be released shortly.

centre stage with the big guns; Sasha, Anthony Pappa, James Holden,

mix technique takes the dance floor from easy and accessible
vocal harmonies through deep and funky foot food to deep, trippy
and hypnotic beats, soaring to stunning prog trance monsters
- a spectacular set that evidences a diverse musical vocabulary
From
her birthplace in Nijmegen Joyce began work as a dancer for leading
organizations Pantera and Extension, later moving to Amsterdam
and performing with her dance colleagueon the Strycker &
Holmes World Tour a sparkling dance show in some of the most
famous clubs in the World. Her passion for music lies in her
dancing as well as her singing. In the not to distant past Joyce
was part of Centerfold, the group that sang in 1998
to a sold out Amsterdam Arena during half time of the classic
football game Ajax-PSV Eindhoven . Centerfold also
added lustre to the 15th year anniversary of Playboy and Joyce
worked regularly as a model, featuring in campaigns for Heineken,
Campari, Gap-Star and Playboy.
Not
being content with success in two fields Joyces passion for music
drove her to invest in truntables and master the art of mixing.
Her first performance before an audience took place in sunny
Miami at a private party and very soon word spread and the bookings
started to roll in, culminating in a DJ residency at the well
known Amsterdam Superclub and a 2-year tour with Ibiza's Space
World Tour to crown it all off. At this moment Joyce has
performed in almost every major club in mainland Europe, North
and South America as well as many in the Far EasHer
striving for success has naturally led her into the recording
studio to produce her own music, which will finally bear fruit
this year with a 12" erelease imminent, though Joyce admits
that she struggles to fit in production time around her busy
live schedule. If it's anywhere near as good as her
live sets it will be worth the wait!

With talent and
determination Emma Feline has achieved international status and
recognition as a leading urban DJ. She began mixing UK Garage
in 1997 and has been playing Hip Hop and R&B since 2000, adding Funky House to her repertoire in recent years.
Her precise mixing, formidable selection and versatile style
works any crowd into a frenzy, and her record box has been a
passport to jet set around the world. From India to America,
Estonia to Barbados, Dubai to Ibiza, the list goes on.
Her
career literally began overnight when DJ Funky Smith asked if
she wanted to stand in for him at Bar Code in London. Even though
Emma had only been shown the ropes a week before, she went for
it and was immediately offered a weekly residency. She
quickly joined forces with Lynda Phoenix, another female DJ who
shared her passion for music. The duo made their radio debut
a few weeks later after blagging the Sunday 6am- 8am slot on
pirate radio London Underground. Within a year they were
promoted to Sunday afternoon and set up London's Most Wanted,
an all girl DJ collective that became of great interest to the
media. Guest appearances with Steve Jackson, The Dreem Teem,
and Woman's hour on Radio 4, newspaper and magazine features
in The Guardian, Time Out, Evening Standard, DJ Magazine and
Touch along with T.V interviews and documentaries on Channel
4 and MTV gave the exposure needed to secure bookings at many
high profile UK events including a residency with Twice As Nice
at The End.
During
1999 Upfront FM was the pirate du jour, and Emma was one of their
flagship DJ's.n 2002 she joined London's No 1 for Hip Hop and
R&B Choice FM (owned by Capital) to host the Wednesday night
'Raw Selection', and in January 2004 her musical knowledge and
presenting skills were rewarded with promotion to a Sunday daytime
show.
When
London Most Wanted split Emma began touring the USA three times
a year, building up a faithful following in New York, Baltimore,
North Carolina, Washington DC, Brooklyn, Atlanta, Miami, Gainesville,
Seattle, LA and Dallas, where she is hailed as a major pioneer
of UK Garage and 2 Step. During these trips she would hunt down
the latest Hip Hop and R&B records before their UK release.
Not
just a talented DJ, Emma Feline turned her skills to the studio,
producing and remixing tracks under the alias of London's Most
Wanted, Fierce and Funky and Tombraider and setting up her own
label 'Stereotherapy' - The gold selling compilation 'Twice as
Nice, Urban Flava's was one of the largest selling urban compilation's
ever - being expertly mixed mixed by Emma and Steve Sutherland,
and featuring her own productions 'Indian Summer'.
With
her fingure on the pulse of a vibrant UK Emma was also approached
by Tense Magazine in 2003 to write her own column. The aptly
named 'Decks in the City' is bursting with candid stories, collected
on her DJ travels, and she took the concept with her when she
was asked to join Touch Magazine in 2005.
