Creative, inventive, & ambitious. These are just a few words to describe DJ Craig Robin, but they barely scratch the surface. This pioneer of electronic music has continued to adapt, evolve, and create innovative music. A list of his number one selling creations is just one example of his ability to remain cutting edge, leading the way in providing the best entertainment and incredible music in the industry today.

In the early 90’s, Craig starting producing music using a method known as “tracking”. He continued to learn and grow from multiple inspirations, including such musical pioneers as Prodigy and Daft Punk. As a natural step in his progression as an artist, he picked up the role of DJ in the mid 90’s. As Craig has evolved as an artist, his sound and creativity have evolved with him. Craig’s current “sound” is an evolution of all electronic genres, including House, Electro, Techno, & even Pop.

To date, Craig has worked with some of the biggest names in the music industry. Some of which include DJ Tiesto, Wendel Kos, Benny Bennassi, Donald Glaude, Flo-Rida, Lada Gaga, Richard Gray, Christopher Lawrence, Dave Aude, Bad Boy Bill, EDX, Ercola, Ke$ha, George Acosta, Jocelyn Brown, Beyonce, & many more. Craig also produces for several big name Circuit DJ’s, as well as 4 of his own alias projects.

Still with so much going on he has earned the respect and admiration of his peers by being consistent, professional, and a very technical engineer and DJ. His music has received support of well known producers such as John Digweed, Roger Sanchez, Oscar G, Tiesto, Deadmau5, Dubfire, Eric Prydz, David Guetta, Morgan Page, Dave Aude, and so on.

As a DJ, Craig has toured the world several times, and played in a total of 17 different countries. One of the most noticeable things about watching Craig Robin DJ is his stage presence. Technical as he may be in the studio producing tracks, Craig has a blast every time he is on the tables playing and it shows! He has an unmatched ability to “read” the crowd and adapt his set to play the music that keeps them dancing and entertained. Being a man that truly loves his work, this DJ will be dancing right along with the crowd. Any DJ who gets into the music as much as the crowd is a true entertainer.

Celebrate our one year anniversary with a 2-hour tag team set from Son:R and Hobbz.

Colby Dimick aka COBOL first bought his turntables in January 07 with a love of breakbeat’s syncopation and basslines, especially the more hip hop influenced, party sound of producers like Deekline, Ed Solo, Krafty Kuts and the like. He started out playing predominantly breakbeat with his friend as the duo Link & COBOL.

Since then time has pased, his tastes have broadened and skills improved, but the foundation on which he draws inspiration from has not changed. COBOL has always been more attracted to the party side of the music and having a good time because that’s what attracted him to the scene in the first place and keeps him interested. He tries not to get caught up in genres and technicalities or take what he does too seriously. The way he thinks about DJing, is that his job, in essence, is to make whoever is listening want to party. Or, if they’re at a party, to party harder! That is COBOL’s default answer when someone asks what kind of music he plays. COBOL plays party music.

Hail Caesar
Divide N Conquer Studio

Hail Caesar, an alias brought upon this Utah Native due to his striking similarity to the man himself and his aggressive and commanding style on the turntables. After nearly a decade in the studio 2010 is the breakout year for Hail Caesar. Not only winning, but smashing the competition in Tactical Assault’s Mixtape contest, the year has started off clearly in his favor. For the past 3 years he began a new chapter by opening his highly acclaimed “Divide N’ Conquer Studio” producing/remixing tracks and engineering mixtapes for some of Utah’s top DJs, including DNB powerhouse Malice, V2/Drumlojik’s Ill Minded, Indie Dance frontrunner Orale’, Dissident House producer/Dj Brian Blurr, and soon to be released Dubstep/DnB/Glitch DJs Bassfactor.

For 5 years now Innerjetik has rocked nothing but the best in the harder styles of dance music.  Mainly focusing on European Hardstyle with a hint of Hard Trance, Tech-Trance, and Jumpstyle. This sound can only be described as….. Innerjetik. With a burning love for all that is hard, and an inner passion to spread his unique sound. Innerjetik is surely not one to be missed.

We will also be premiering Son:R’s newest studio release:
