At twelve years of age, a young version of Mic Most was just venturing into the world of music, discovering the skills of his own on a Casio keyboard, a karaoke machine and a set of headphones he already figured out could be used as a microphone. Realizing quickly how much he enjoyed making music as he grew up in Orange Co., CA – he made a commitment to continue his path into music and never surrender the incredible feelings and genuine ability to connect to others that music had shown him.

Mic Most has projects with The Ambient Society, Los Angeles Digital Audio, and also was in a side-project known as 2w0E1even where he matches his own creativity with that of two-time Grammy Award winner Jah Born. If anything, Mic Most has become much busier and much more of an integral part of the scene, not only as a musician.  In 2016, Mic Most began composing music libraries for Film/TV for UMPG (Universal Music Publishing Group). Mic Most is also an active member of The Recording Academy and has been seen in places such as Washington D.C. lobbying for musicians’ rights or Hollywood attending the Grammy Awards. Keep this guy on your radar.

My love for music goes back as far as I can remember, but the DJ fire was lit for me in the mid 1980’s with sounds like German Techno, British synthpop, , and San Francisco leather bar.  With these emerging new sounds in my head and new experiences at local underground clubs, moving into the DJ arena was the next inevitable step.

Early stints at clubs in East Texas evolved into bigger things in college.  Running my own mobile DJ service and spinning in college clubs 3 and 4 nights a week only served to fuel the fire for sharing the music I loved with the world.  Guest mixes during spring break at clubs like The Coliseum in Daytona Beach and Club Rio in Corpus Christi were some of the highlights of my early days.

My move to the DFW area came in the early 90’s when I was hired to DJ at a large nightclub in Ft. Worth.  After graduating College and several years of working by day and DJing by night I decided it was time to merge the two so I opened my own nightclub (Xccess).  It had been a dream of mine for years and I was finally afforded the opportunity to make it a reality.

After time I realized I did not share the same enthusiasm for running a club as I did DJing in them so I sold everything and took a hiatus.  A few years later I heard some mixes from DJ Moxie being played at clubs like Afterlife and my fire was reignited.  I’ve been back at it for about 7 yrs. and I’ve never had more fun playing the music I love for the world.

Luis’ love for electronic music started at the age 13 when by chance he acquired a mix of electronic music that sparked his creative passion.

Within a few years he had bought his first pair of turntables and started learning the art of mixing. While still in high school, he mixed his first live set at Afterlife, a Dallas electronic club at the center of the scene for many years. His dedication kept distance from getting the best of him, traveling regular from his home town of Waco to Dallas.

Luis has held residency positions at Afterlife and performed repeatedly at Lizard Lounge opening for world-renown DJ’s such as Armin Van Buuren, Marco V, M.I.K.E, Beat Service and more.

His joy for mixing and interest in electronic music led him into the role of producing. Luis has released music on Freegrant Music, a label ran by well known producer, Max Freegrant.

His latest EP titled “Ethereal” gotten tremendous support from some of the biggest artist in the EDM scene such as Above & Beyond, Kyau & Albert, Cosmic Gate, Sunny Lax, and many more.  Luis is currently working on remixes and original material forthcoming in late 2016 and early 2017.

Omar Mustafa is a staple of the new generation of Dallas DJs.  Mustafa operates on a broad pallet of club music, from drum and bass to house.  His dedication to the culture and audience-focused background allows him the unique ability to adapt each set to the party at hand.

Mustafa began his career working as a promoter with the infamous Afterlife nightclub.  He found his love for mixing and has played live shows at Green Elephant, Wit’s End and Crown & Harp.  He’s also been featured in Dallas Observer’s Mixtapes series.

His dedication goes beyond the art of mixing. Mustafa’s start in booking and promotions has given him a unique insight on the amount of work that is put in behind the scenes. When he is not mixing, he can be found supporting the local scene out and about at various weeklies and events most days of the week.

RXE’s exposure and interest towards electronic music began at a young age of ten when he was introduced to genres such as Trance and Goa that would eventually draw him towards the Dallas club and rave scene as an older teen. The immersion into the Dallas club scene around 2008 coupled with an even greater new found interest in dance centric genres such as progressive house and techno began RXE’s DJ career at the age of 19 for Afterlife Dallas, a very rave centric EDM club at the time. As a club DJ for Afterlife Dallas RXE was able to experiment mixing different types of dance music styles exploring their impact on the dance floor.

Following two years spinning regularly at Afterlife Dallas RXE shifted his focus towards music production, audio engineering and sound design in order to expand upon the ability to impact listeners on the dance floor. Today he is influenced by the sounds of Techno, House, Progressive and much more!

Born in San Diego, MxMind, AKA Joe, started his musical journey at 17 when he first discovered electronic dance music. It was at this moment that Joe knew he wanted to be part of ‘The Scene’. In 1997 Joe bought himself his first set of decks at the age of 19 and was already doing guest mixes on radio shows while DJing at various clubs. Following his earlier success as a DJ, MxMind later had the opportunity to open up for world renowned legends such as Darude, Spacemen Live, Basshunter , Roski Speed, Burufunk Live, Magnus, Infected Mushroom Live and many more.  

He achieved his big break after becoming actively involved in the afterhours club scene as a key event organizer and talent curator. Promoting for The Basement, Studio 7, Fallout, and Afterlife set the grounds for Joe’s place in the scene. MxMind is not only a talented DJ but also a curator of memorable nights. Aside from DJing, MxMind also writes and produces his own original music. MxMind’s Production successes have found releases on Bonsai Elemental, Traffic-Tunes, Grooveman, D-Pulse, 220V Recordings, and many more.  

The scene should be expecting big things from MxMind in 2016 as his latest project, ActiveSessions.FM launches with the intention to bring the electronic dance community together by connecting music fans to DJs and producers.
