Dear all, After an amazing kick-off month, it’s already time to welcome the February Editions. This week features the up and coming talents from Beirut, Ronin & Phil. We invited the guys rocking the best clubs and events in Lebanon to play an energetic set in our backyard. It’s something you won’t want to miss ! Since Louie loves you a lot, he also invited Thara Bergen to take over the decks. The Amsterdam kid will be dropping some insane beats for the first time in Dubai, and that makes us wanna whoop whoop. Enough said, see you there !! ///////////////////////////////////// LINEUP/////////////////////////////////////////// //////////////////////////////// RONIN / PHIL /////////////////////////////////// PHIL // Active member of the leading radio station & promoter in the region MIX FM Lebanon since 2010, his radio show airs every Friday night with a range of groovy house music selected from the finest nu school labels. His sets were appreciated and supported by the nation’s finest promoters and DJs whether he played at the biggest clubs in Lebanon, at crowded beach resorts in Jordan or underground bars in Paris. Inspired by a mixture of music, vocals, sights, DJs, friends, sun, urban living & love, Phil's raw & emotive sound is distinctively recognized by its deep funky instrumentation, old school taste, piano hooks, chopped vocals, all keeping it jackin' & soulful! Early 2011, Phil joined his fellow infamous DJs Ronin & Nesta on their Beirut In the Mix journey establishing solid residencies in Beirut city and spreading their love for house all over town. He played alongside rising talents & established names on the international circuit namely the likes of Tale Of Us, Marco Carola, Martin Buttrich, Luciano, Art Department, Terry Francis, Nathan Coles, Max Cooper, Nhar, Gunnar Stiller, James Zabiela, Lee Foss, Adam Port, Blond:ish, Djebali, Dyed Soundorom, Shonky, Dan Ghenacia, David Squillace, Steve Lawler, Hold Youth, Tolga Fidan, Gui Boratto to name a few. RONIN // Ronin is an artist whose dedication to his craft and integrity has established him as one of the leading lights in the region, while mainly being a Beirut regular. Having made a name for himself as one half of dynamic duo Ronin & Nesta - thanks to a handful of high profile gigs and key releases on Hypergroove, Family Matters and Mile End Records - he has achieved a level of quality and discipline in the craft that is unsurpassed. Over the years, he has built a trust with the Middle-East music lovers, becoming a solid staple and enabling him to play alongside the most vibrant and forward thinking artists in the business, including the likes of Marco Carola, Tale Of Us, Apollonia, Craig Richards, Martin Buttrich, Sasha, Luciano, Josh Wink, Magda and John Digweed to name just a few. One of the things that set Ronin apart is his sense of originality: always a step ahead of the game, he has constantly strived to be the best he can possibly be. As a DJ, promoter, club booker, label manager or brand strategist, he has proven himself to be a remarkable talent. With over a decade in the scene, his contribution to some of the most exciting and successful projects around is a testament to his hard work and dedication. All in all, he is an interesting breed : a thinker and ideas person positioned somewhere between logic and originality. Not one to sit on his hands, Ronin is currently setting his focus to projects of larger scale for 2015, which will hopefully take his vision to new heights. But what’s for sure is that he has maintained his integrity all along, enjoying himself and sharing a lot with friends and people he meets! The best way to put an everlasting smile on everyone’s faces. https://soundcloud.com/philinthemix https://www.facebook.com/philinthemix https://www.facebook.com/beirutinthemix //////// THARA BERGEN /////// Born in Amsterdam and raised in Ibiza.
