Listening to everything from classic rock, traditional indian, orchestra, and reggae, to classical, metal, west-african, and middle-eastern styles of music. From youth, having picked up instruments like the electric/acoustic guitar, bass guitar, classical piano, and various different percussion instruments, it was only natural for him to incorporate an organic feel into his musical selections. Also being a fan of poetry, films, ambient sounds, traditional instruments, and the spoken word, you will often find him incorporating an eclectic array of samples into his sets. Dastan: Dastan translates to story or legend. His goal is always to take you on a trip & to get lost with you in the music....As a lover of the fantasy of it all, He’s been playing in and around DC for the last four years, as well as a few special places abroad including for Tomorrowland festival in belgium and Burning Man. Always finding himself on the darker side of deep house/techno his sets dance to a strong middle eastern and tribal flair. Wlad: WLAD is a French DJ / producer and the founder of the hedZup Records label. Of Parisian origin, he grew up in a family of music lovers. Cradled between Jazz, Disco and Flamenco, he learnt to play different percussions. This former breakdancer was passionate about vinyls that he collected from his teenage years, so became a hip hop dj thanks to the arrival of the French Touch and all these talented artists who made him famous all over the world. They inspired him and gave him the desire to embark on a career as an international DJ producer. After several years of residence as a DJ in Saint Tropez in the summer, then Miami and New York in the winter, he decided to take a break and went on a backpacking trip around the world for two years to discover the different cultures of this world. On the strength of this trip, he returned full of multi-cultural energy and inspiration. He returned to Paris and at the same time founded the hedZup records label and the famous monthly showcases of the same name in 2015. He invited artists like Archie Hamilton, iO Mulen, DJ Steaw, Diego Krause and many others that performed on the famous concert stage, the New Casino and then even had the opportunity to export the evening to the magical island of Ibiza! (Continue reading on hedzupmusic.com/wlad/) Mancini: From Paris, France, Mancini has always been attracted by music. First inspired by Rock, he started playing guitar in a band, and then slowly discovered electronic music at the end of the 90's. The idea of playing his own music selection and making people dance was dangerously growing in his mind! In 2001, a meeting on a beach will convince him to buy his turntables. Through the years, his style matured. Gimmick, sensibility but mostly rhythms define the best his House music vision! His dj sets are a spontaneous mixture of grooves fuelled by his crowd’s reaction. He has played alongside famous djs as Jamie Jones, Dyed Soundorom, Miss Kittin, Archie Hamilton, iO Mulen, Cab Drivers, Diego Krause, Robert Owens, Losoul... In september 2016, in a desire of pure freedom, he decided to launch his own vinyl label simply named “Mancini”. Handstamped and limited releases, its have reached the first places on the vinyls charts of Deejay, Decks shops several times and been played by the likes of Apollonia, Enzo Siragusa, Archie Hamilton, Seb Zito, Ferro, Djebali, Chris Carrier... He is now managing and promoting with Wlad the vinyl and digital label hedZup records, that is knowing a great ascension in the Minimal House world. The best is yet to come!
