Miami-based Henrix finished 2014 with the chart-topping Light (Flamingo) and kicked off 2015 with The Reaper (Harem Records). The hot streak continues as Henrix closes out January with 3 different releases on 3 different labels! It all started on the 22nd of December when he released “Light” on Fedde Le Grand’s Flamingo Recordings. The single rocked worldwide sale charts and got approved by DJ’s worldwide, incl. outstanding support from Laidback Luke who, in addition to “Light”, played 4 Henrix tracks back-to-back-to-back-to-back during his set at Space Miami.
Right after finishing his trip to The Netherlands on the pink Flamingo with “Light” he started another journey back to the West Coast’s Los Angeles on Sultan & Ned Shephard’s Harem Records. This time Henrix teamed up with its alum, Darmon, and the track “Reaper” was born. Sultan + Ned Shepard knew what they were doing when they were tapping into Henrix & Darmon’s exceptional skills for delivering quality products. Freshly released (Jan 5th), the “Reaper” will be,  without  a  doubt,  one  of  the  strongest  2015  weapons  on  a  long  list  of  Harem’s  artillery.
The next destination of Henrix’s worldwide trip is already set. On the 20th of January he will release on the British major Cr2 Records imprint jumping straight into “The Underground” with Chicago’s Celeda. This body-shakingly production will bring in some beautifully constructed parts and an immense drop. Solid and forceful beats make the track an unstoppable force. The single will be, without any doubts, the icing on Henrix’s cake. With his release schedule continuing into February and March along with his newly signed Vegas Residency (The Light) there is no doubt that Henrix is one of 2015’s artists to watch!

After barnstorming end of 2014, Big & Dirty Recordings is already looking forward to 2015 and continues to serve you with more tasty musical tidbits. Only over the last few recent months the label’s release catalogue consisted of singles from the likes of First State („Get Low”), Bart Claessen („Donk”), Lunde Bros („Just Move Along”) and Stafford Brothers („Running On Empty” feat. Miss Palmer) among others. All of them rocked worldwide sale charts and major radioshows hosted by top players like David Guetta, Nicky Romero, Hardwell, Afrojack to name a few. If you investigate the subject a little bit more you’ll know out of hand that Big & Dirty is about to shuffle the deck of cards and disturb music industry’s order in 2015.

Tricky is heading out on a European tour this month, where he will be joined by a new vocalist, AJEYA, an indo-french performer from the island of Réunion. The two have already spent time in the studio and are offering some fresh new music, including a French language version of Tricky’s single “Nicotine Love,” for free download in advance of the tour.

By magical coincidence they stumbled upon each other. True thoroughbred musicians, each of them an icon with a long impressive career in music. They appeared on the Dutch Chakraparty, a well known Sunday afternoon idiosyncratic party that was organized for the 8th year in a row for the adult party animal. A smooth and sensual stage-jam on the DJ beats of Romanian Producer/DJ Chris Shakes. It was he who asked them to join him on his adventurous lounge music project: Shakes+Seven. A unique collaboration between 4 studio’s across the European continent. Next Monday, January 19th, BeatLoungers will have 3 chances to get to know them, with their SPecial Edit airing on our BL Chill Channel!

A few months ago while chatting with our friend, DJ/producer from Ibiza, Motoe Haus about a possible album release, we realized that he had way too many fantastic unsigned tracks and that we didn’t want to fit them all on one album. Instead, it made much more sense to us to have them not only released as a trilogy series of EP’s, but to have YOU participate as well by submitting your remixes … Good Luck!
