From dirty reggae festivals to underground house clubs Kareem "Padawan" Rifai is a fairly newcomer to the DJ scene. He has been known for his diverse music library and his love for anything with a beat. He also thinks that writing a bio with only 5 years' experience is very arrogant of him so he will leave you with a quote: "Playing one genre of music is for boy-bands and buskers."

Born in the UK and raised in Beyrouth, 23 year old William Mahfoud (aka Rise 1969) returned to London to obtain his degree in sound engineering from SAE Institute and has successfully drilled his way through the English electronic music scene. From taking part in the not-so-legal raves in London to playing gigs in The Ministry of Sound, and being associated with indie labels like ABCD, Metafiziq, ItchyCoo and the up-and-coming Din Is Noise records, William's music ranges between dark techno beats that carry a perceptible oriental influence and heavy sound experimentations in acousmatic music that are used in the films he scores. He has now relocated to Beyrouth and is working on collaborations with artists within the local scene.


► Sue

► Snare

Despite being a newcomer to the scene, Snare is leaving a ripple effect on local dance floors; From the dark amen breaks of drum'n'bass to the heavier kick drums of breakcore all the way to hardtek's rather fast tempos. With influences like Dr. Macabre, Bong Ra and Antichristus, there's not much room for error.

Spinning all styles of Drum n Bass from the jazzy soothing "Liquid funk", dance floor bouncy "UK & Jump up", digital sounds "Technoid, Tekstep & Neuro" to bashing & grinding "Hardstep" Drum n Bass.
